    Cons
    Very much so a 'use it well or get wrecked' ability. Mistiming it or dying ahead of time would be not so good. Mitigated by popping it late.
    Useless against multi-hit attacks
    After all the QQ about holmgang thread still on the 1st page, there is no way a 10 second safety net window that combines holmgang and benediction on a 2 min CD is going through. If holmgang is "overpowered", holmgang with a free benediction attached and a 10 second window on 66% of the recast is batshit stupid broken. Why even have tankbusters anymore.

    Those cons are inconsequential. Its not useless against multi hit attacks unless each hit could 1 shot you since you are at max health after it triggers. Lets say theres a 5 hit tank buster that could be survived via conventional mitigation (~50% or so mitigation to comfortably live. TBN+Wall. IB+Defiance+rampart, Vengence+ToB etc. This is a VERY hard hitting tank buster by conventional measurements requiring all this to live). 50% mitigation means you have 200% effective HP. So you would die on the 3rd hit, get fully healed and take the last 2 hits with 20% life. Holmgang would also survive this, at 1% life. Hallowed is hallowed. The only way this new holmgange+Bene combo is 'bad' is one specific scenario. Cheesing shared tank busters that have multiple hits. That is an EXTREMELY specific weakness and only applies to shared tank buster akh morns which only appear in 2 fights I can think of, one of which is level 50.

    Holmgang at 6 seconds (not 7) generally takes the tank buster and the follow up auto attack, then requires a heal. You are proposing something that functions better requiring no heals (buster>100% HP>Auto>80ish% HP) on a 2 min timer. Look at every complaint about holmgang, then square it. Way past broken.
