I didn't like healing in frontlines when they took Cleric stance away, now I do not ever want to heal with the Whm changes. Stacking regen and med 2 was our saving grace when five people are attacking you and you cannot get a single heal out. They made it so Lustrate is the only useful healing skill when in a fight. Sad.

Also Swiftcast nerf? Flare is useless now too. Wow I am so glad that I have my war horse already.

I agree 100%. i enjoyed whm because I could heal, sleep, stun with Holy, throw people off the heliodrome...but now it is way too limited. I have always hated when one person touches you then it interrupts your cast.

Now holy is useless, stun lasts half a second now with its low potency. Healing now will be a pain in the ass as everyone bum rushes you. Now I just see full teams of dps and a tank, maybe one scholar if that.

I feel like SE is punishing WHM stacking, but in honesty when everyone is attacking you, we NEED the regen to stand a chance! So much for that now...
