Why do we still these?

Seriously, why? WHY is Repose still here?

Okay it can be semi useful for solo play, sleep 1-2 out of a pack of 3-4 if you're in a story instance. But outside of that pretty specific set up, WHY? Most dungeons are round up the mobs and AoE them down, so you can't sleep them. And most Raids are immune to Sleep anyway.

And while I'm here WHY FLUID AURA? First it loses it's damage and now it doesn't even knock back, it just binds? What are we supposed to bind here? It's not even really useable in solo content, not like ranged's Bind which has a longer reach.

I'm confused and unsure about a lot of changes come Shadowbringers, but I'm really confused as to WHY out of all the things to keep, these two are still here. Are they THAT coded into the game that it's a jenga tower effect if they get removed?

Honestly, both were niche but highly useful in that narrow window of situations.

Fluid Auraing loose mobs back into the pack for AoEing? Yeah I'm going to miss that.

Repose? It had it's moments in Eureka.

Both abilities are wasted opportunities and examples of SE's clear failure at providing engaging gameplay for healers outside of mashing rocks or overhealing though.

Without them, whms variety in their toolkit would be even more devastating as it already is.

Is it really Variety if they get used so little? Related to this, I'm still ticked Ranged gets all the Gaze skills BUT the useful STUN one.

Why keep skills that maybe see 1 use every 100 dungeons/instances? Okay that's not a provable fact but I can't recall the last time I've seen a WHM use them, myself included.

Fluid was awesome for weaving. I wish they initially removed the knock-back and kept the damage. I think seeing them do that and then seeing the rest of WHM toolkit was really the first time I realized they had no clue.

They were both amazing skills in PvP before that all got overhauled. When Fluid Aura dealt damage it was great for weaving... Maybe SE left them in as emergency skills they could swap out/change if healer backlash got bad enough? Hahahaha... who the hell am I kidding.

[Fawkes]

I liked having them and I wish we had more stuff like that. I'm going to miss doing open world quests and being able to drop DoTs on a mob then fluid aura it away and throw a /dote at it while it dies. I don't care if it doesn't work in raids or isn't actually useful.

I want a Frog spell! Even if it only works on stupid open world trash mobs, or myself! YOSHI PLZ STOP PRUNING THE JOY OUT OF MY LIFE AND PLANT SOME SEEDS
