    Using a 45 spell to finish the boss of a 25 dungeon in no way solidifies the usefulness of the ability.

    I really like the Holy spell, just disappointed the MP cost makes it unfavorable to use on 45+ content.
    When dealing with multiple mobs that need to be cleared, you don't prepare the WHMs to drain their MP, you have the BLMs use Flare, Fira, or Blizzara, or the WARs use Steel Cyclone or Whirlwind, or the DRGs use Leg Sweep or Ring of Talons.

    All these strong AoE abilities make using the 5 min recast, ALL MP drain, less than inspiring damage Holy spell and unlikely choice. Yes, we use it, we love it, but honestly it's more like a Gil Toss ability than the Ultimate WHM damage spell. So if the spell stays as is, can we rename it MP Toss?

    Skip to 18:10 if you just want to see the Holy abuse.

    The reason Holy does so well on some mobs (trash mobs), but sucks on Ifrit is because it has an extremely high MATK ratio but a very low INT/MND modifier ratio. This makes it progressively less useful, very quickly, on higher end dLVL targets. This, however, also makes it extremely useful, very quickly, on lower end dLVL targets. A good example of this is Totorak as Reinheart mentions.
