Endwalker White Mage has Issues

[Silver-Strider]

Yeah you're totally right. Nerf Liturgy so I can actually use it on cd, nerf benediction so I can use it on cd, and I would generally have a much better time. I would be happy with making the lilies oGCDs too. Holy doesn't feel like much of a problem to me probably mostly because dungeons aren't that important to me optimisation wise, but if they are using it to justify the rest of WHM's kit then whatever. It is all so mismatched right now.

Stellar Explosion is so good and it's a blend of Assize and Liturgy... I would love a detonate option on Liturgy lol. It's so useful. Liturgy really does not need to be as powerful as it is because nothing in the game is designed around NEEDING that power (or I would have more spots where I could actually use it fully) so its power is just a detriment at this point. I would resent that Assize change greatly but hey, I guess if it is the price to pay for our horrendous recovery...

You really don't need to nerf any of WHM's abilities at all. The problem with WHM isn't that their abilities are too strong, it's that they're outdated. Once upon a time, that 3k heal from Benediction was extremely powerful but now that we have things like Macrocosmos, Zoe+Pneuma, etc. that 3k isn't as prominent any more and can hardly justify it's CD nowadays. Lilybell could potentially warrant a 3 minute CD if it was changed in a few ways.

Increase the duration to 30 seconds.
Let the WHM manually use each stack as an oGCD Medica cast that they could weave.
Remove the fall off heal at the end and just turn any remaining stacks into a burst heal at full potency.

Those changes alone would warrant it being 3 minutes because, while still weaker than Macrocosmos in terms of potential potency, it has a longer duration and would allow the WHM to always be able to control when the heals go off.

WHM just needs an overhaul really to update its entire identity
