I don't mind that pally tanks can't LoH themselves, it frankly wasn't really fair they could do this and other tanks couldn't. <br /><br />Yay!<br /><br />-DelDelicianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7214185741056853372.post-50353709243432684072009-11-06T08:59:59.199+01:002009-11-06T08:59:59.199+01:00And this was changed again, see: http://atouchofar...And this was changed again, see: http://atouchofarcane.blogspot.com/2009/11/lay-on-hands-change-again.html<br />LoH used by a deep Holy paladin won't cause forbearance.Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212129259331473682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7214185741056853372.post-80124775934174536172009-11-05T09:02:45.298+01:002009-11-05T09:02:45.298+01:00Thank you for your comment.

That was one of the reasons for the "nearly" in my sentence :)<br /><br />But if I can understand your concern as a healer, that I do agree with, seeing how many times I used LoH as a life saver, I'm more concerned about Protection Paladins themselves than about us healing them.<br />A protection paladin has very few "hot sh*t" buttons, one being Divine Shield, the other being Lay on Hands (and eventually glyphed Hand of Salvation but that's cutting hair). With this change to LoH their two life saving abilities are now on a linked 2mn cooldown which is way too long for a lot of bosses (for example in the Mimiron encounter).<br />You also have to think about using your LoH on a palatank now, because you will prevent his DS for 2mn, but also *his* LoH which is at least twice as strong as our own ...<br /><br />It is clearly a nerf to LoH, but I do prefer that to seeing Protection Paladins completely losing one of their so few life saving cooldowns as it was in the first version of the nerf.<br /><br />note : As a new cause for Forbearance, and another ability limited by it, all Paladins should be more cautious to use Avenging Wrath too.Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08212129259331473682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7214185741056853372.post-79042401181288912042009-11-04T18:57:27.673+01:002009-11-04T18:57:27.673+01:00I have to disagree with this statement:

I use this on a tanking Pally, and they can't use Divine Shield. I use this on a Warrior, they can still use Shield Wall. How is this fair? <br /><br />-DelDelicianoreply@blogger.com
