    As a SCH, sad to see this big Whispering Dawn nerf but I guess that was expected
    Also why Holy III when no Holy II?

    Because of the English localization team's stupid decision to change all the spell suffixes to numbers that make no sense.

    Like many past installments in the FF series, the devs have chosen to "skip" certain suffixes in favor of ones they like, so this new spell is "Holyga." Not nearly as weird to skip over a nonsense suffix, but of course the localization team changes all "-ga" spells into "III" so here we are.

    Because rather than use the -ra, -ga, -ja that the games often have, and use in the Japanese text, they just use 2, 3, & 4 in English here. Holy upgrades straight to Holyga, so Holy 3.

    Adding numbers instead of the classic spell suffixes is forever one of the more ridiculous decisions that they seem to want to cling to until the bitter end. What's next, are we going to jump from Glare III to Glare VI? Holy III to Holy X?

    That kind of got talked about when they were discussing Black Mage stuff. The High Fire/Blizzard 2 stuff specifically. Something about how they'd never gone past -ja before, so they'd be the ones to get to decide what the next suffix would be and kind of panicked at the pressure and opted to not and just call it High Fira/Blizzara. So unless they finally come up with one, expect to see more things become High X.

    I like the numbers because in the future you will get "Holy over 9000".

    Seriously, i don't really care whether it is a number or a suffix. Numbers have an advantage because you only need to look at the number and you know instantly which spell is the stronger one. When you see a suffix like "ga" then this is not clear and you have to look at the details of the spell. Numbers are more intuitive, IMHO.

    Cheers

    Still salty that we essentially lost it when they made GL passive.
