<p>can you be a little more specific to that please?</p><p>Example, group reactive, 11-13 triggers, in a 24-man raid, that's not gonna be very fun. You'll tune down group defence as the triggers will be burned out of group. With the current mechanic where triggers are being use everytime someone takes damage even when all the damage is warded away by Shamans, that's makes this suggestion even worse.</p>

<p>I think templars already have an edge over inquisitors in terms of healing. Curing and group/raid desirability is a different story, but there is already a long 20-something page thread on this topic already.</p>

<p>Uhm so let me get this straight your asking to able to heal a whole raid with one click? Even if its just a short term buff it wouldnt work, the heals would be spread too thin reaching out raidwide. Temps are still very good healers, if your raiding w a inquis who is outparsing you on heals its either your aa or gear or simply grp setup or just the simple fact theyre grp is taking more damage than yours. Templars are still great healers and still needed in raids as will all healers they all have their place and need and some mobs they shine better on than others.</p>

As for being able to raid heal I think that maybe heading down the wrong path.</p>

Many templar players I've observed over the years only choose to overheal doing 2K DPS in X4. Arguably they could get away with less overhealing.</p><p>Inquisitors are often placed <strong>by themselves</strong> to hyper-cure the incoming detriments while keeping the group properly 'cushioned' and stacking those much necessary detriments on the mob to reduce incoming damage and keep DPS up. </p><p>Add the stress of some whiny DPS who blames any death on you automatically assuming that they died because you're DPSing not that they have any responsibility to pot cure at all of the 2 group cures happen to be down or they were knocked out of range.</p><p>I'd rather work out a cure rotation with a 2nd healer than request a 0.5s casting cure that can be used while moving or falling from a knockback being placed by yourself if I were a Templar. Being by yourself isn't as awesome as it sounds. Anything other than a flawless performance = insta whine and drama directed at YOU. Mistakes are very visible.</p><p><span style="color: #ff00ff;">If raid forces are gaming the system and placing Inquisitors in MT groups and progressing then I'd imagine mobs and zones will be tuned to require the stoneskins from the Templar class instead of having an Inq with a War Rune that procs a stoneskin too much.</span></p>
