Instead of that lackluster talent Lights Caress how would it been if they brought back Lights Wrath artifact ability as a talent in the 100 row? It could see some burst healing in Mythics.
Yeah I really wish they changed Light’s Caress or Luminous Barrier into something that is more M+ focused.
I don’t think Light’s Wrath would be that though, as much as I think it’s a fantastic ability and loved when we had it, it’s also more Raid-focused than M+ focused (it scales out of the number of atonements you have out).
I don’t have a specific spell in mind but I think mostly something that can help with single target healing or 2-3 target cleave healing could be good.
Hmm how about something like this (just brainstorming):
“Atonement buff now stacks up to two” - The idea of this is not that you keep 2 stacks on everyone all the time, but perhaps you could on the tank only and that allows you to DPS more or if you need to directly heal him then you get the bonus for mastery twice (since he has two atonements), if you need burst AOE healing you can PW:Radiance back to back then DPS (so everyone gets twice the normal atonement healing when you DPS), or if you need to heal (let’s say) 3 targets taking consistent damage you stack it up to two on each trough a combination of Radiance and single target heals then proceed to DPS.
I don’t know if it would work out that well in practice but just got the idea and wanted to share it. It initially sounds like it could work but I’m not sure if it would turn into Players feeling the need to maintain the two stacks on everyone all the time, which is not the intention.
Yeah something like atonement version of beacon the tank would be nice.
It was but wasnt terribly useful in dungeons
I miss Light’s Wrath… A lot… So I agree with you on replacing Light’s Caress with Wrath.
But that doesn’t really fix our final talents, we’d then be stuck on Wrath vs Evangelism similar to Lenience vs Evangelism.
I say they should remove Luminous Barrier, it’s a dead talent in which almost nobody picks unless in very certain scenarios. It’s an old ghost of what Discipline used to be.
In stand of Luminous Barrier, they should add a talent that helps us in Mythic+ since we’re already losing Lenience (Honestly, this was only picked because Evangelism and Luminous are relatively useless in Dungeons).
Maybe something like Ultimate Radiance or Trinity would be nice, or an option for a better single target healing.
With all the barrier talents on Tier 100. They should really give back Barrier of the Devoted (Atonement heal for 100% of damage)
