Was he excited to have Dress Up:Starving addition? I'm just going to turn her into a ghost like the other one.

But... but I already like how Zhloe and Kurenai look.

Plus, it doesn't even have a targeting reticule, so I doubt that they'd be giving it "immediate" when it already "happens without being placed."

Bringer of disappointment you are!

That probably makes more sense though. I'll still hold onto my tiny sliver of hope that asylum now just pops a bubble around the user, but yeah...they probably wouldn't change it THAT much.

I'm trying to wrap my head around nerfing Radiant Shield myself. What the hell were they thinking on that, I'd really like to hear the logic on it.

My only thought is to compare it to garuda.. only hits once and raids dont normally have alot of magic dps.

Granted, they could have buffed garuda instead but *shrug*

Radiant Shield no longer reflects damage....Excuse me ?

I really, really dislike using ground-placement for skills, so I'll be thrilled if this removes that need. As it is now, I feel like I underutilize the skill as I don't want to deal with placing the target.

It just means that Asylum's heal will start ticking as soon as you place it.

If you want a way to use the spell without having to place the target, you could try a macro with "/ac "Asylum" <me>" or "/ac "Asylum" <t>". The first one should place the bubble on you, while the second one should place it on your current target.

That's been pretty standard for major patches.

Probably trying to push out SMN as the meta caster, considering they also buffed the other two.

On another note, I'm incredibly disappointed in the Unending Journey changes, even if it sounds petty. I thought we were finally going to get the other half of the cutscenes that are missing from it or an option to replay story instances, but I guess something that effects maybe 6 cutscenes at most works too.
