Well I haven't tested it yet, but I don't see why "Blocks all physical attacks from the front" would mean it doesn't negate 100%, or else it would say "PARTIALLY blocks all physical attacks from the front". We do see the difference in our battle logs, you know it as well as I do.

And to those who say it can't work because it works like Hallowed Ground : It doesn't. Divine Veil would block physical attacks from the... wait for it... FRONT. Hallowed Ground blocks all physical attacks... from ALL angles. It's meant as a "oh-shit" ability, but it can also be used for... oh, I don't know, big AoE pulls ? Is it that hard to think outside the box ?

I'm really amazed at how many people can, just from reading a short paragraph, make assumptions that "it won't change" anything. These people sometimes are making me believe that, no matter what SE does, they'll still stick with their opinion.

Like I said again, could you please wait and test the changes before saying it's not nearly enough ? Is it that hard to do ?

And even if it doesn't "fix" PLD, at the very least I have to say that making these kind of changes merely two weeks after the patch is quite amazing on its own. We used to wait for months, sometimes years, to get such changes in FFXI.
