WHM Changes: PvP Buff (?) and Slight PvE Axe

[Auteur]

Not that PvP particularly matters in this game but WHM was already nigh unkillable in PvP and with these buffs, lol:

White Mage PVP

Action Adjustment

HP Increased from 12,500 to 13,500.
Stone III Cast time reduced from 1.8 to 1.3 seconds.
Fluid Aura Recast time reduced from 30 to 20 seconds.

Regen Healing potency increased from 1,000 to 1,500.
Divine Benison Healing lily requirement has been removed.

Even easier to extract divers out of bad situations with free benison spam.

PvE wise, I just realized that the changes to plenary indulgence actually make it much more useful given the widespread use of AoE mechanics. Easy to synergize medicas into automatic plenary to make aoe healing that much easier. So the power level reduction in plenary is probably not really a nerf utility-wise (if they kept the original power level too, WHM might be broken).

Sidebar, thank you SE for not touching RDM and hope it stays that way.

Plenary Indulgenceis lame, useless and obnoxious with these changes too, while PVP buffs are not only for WHM but for all the healers

Please post that on pvp forums, we're bored.

SE seems like they want to make PvP matters tho. They have done quite a substantial changes for PvP since release. They noticed the brokenness of DRK's unmend, SCH's broil, how AST was underwhelming, etc...and the issue of AFKers (evident in the change in XP for win and loss), and they attempted to fix them. Even though how effective are the fixes is another story, they noticed and want to improve the situation. They want it to succeed and they will have my full support for doing it.

Oh and if 2 dps can't focus a WHM, they need to get good.

True it's nice to have a "free" castless AoE heal but nothing needed even if connected to a mechanics that can make it result in overheal: you can do the same with Cure 3, Medica 2, Medica, Swiftcast already. Something different and with a bigger range of use would've been nicer
