Cool active mode DoM weapon effects.. that you can't see in passive mode!

1 they dont have WS
2 in active mode you dont regain mp

1. They had own WS once. Because of that I wrote "again"
2. In passive mode you can't see your weapon animation

Just switch to active mode -> cast a spell -> switch back to passive mode.

Just switch to active mode during battle ^^

This. Seriously it takes like half a second to do.

Having your weapon out makes you look like a frickin' noob. It draws criticism from your teammates because your job is pretty much to be in passive mode. That's just a dumb workaround, not a solution.

Which is why Whm/Cjn shouldn't have Aero/Stone spells.

Then conj / WHM would be highly inviable in PvP when that comes out. Think back to WoW's preists. Even though they were the most effective healers, they still had an array of reasonably powered offensive actions, that, even if you didn't use them in PvE parties, were used in PvP.

Even in early FF games, WHMs were at a minimum very powerful against undead/demons. in XI, they weren't powerful against anything. White magic is mostly aligned with good, it's not necessarily all about healing, it's also about smiting unholy beings. I'm tired of people saying that WHM and CNJ (especially CNJ itself) shouldn't have offensive magic.

I know that they use to have WS but they dont now. so they dont have them like i said. But to this post yes Whm is the Undead smiting master so it should have banish to do that ill never understand why they didnt give them this.
