[tanks and healers] after the changes

BO is in excellent spot but I will complain a bit.
It's mechanic is total garbage.
It's restricting - not rewarding.
IB and BG - you build grudge/hate and your buffs/debuffs get better.
Chosen and knight - some of your skills get additional effect depending on active auras.
SM/BO - you can't use most of your skills. Your skills cost no AP at Best plan...

Perfect Defenses tactic on SM gives +block, and Calming Winds tactic gives you +disrupt, the higher your dance stance is. But agree, that the stance is limiting and that you need 2x tactics to get meaningful benefit of the mechanic.

Thank you for input. I don't have SM.
I will add that BO also has two tactics that benefit from Plan - crit chance and parry.
Those are short time benefits as you can't stay in one Plan/Stance.

AM – Excellent. Its EoV healing should be doubled, but the heal should only affect his party.

Phoenix's Rejuvenation feels too weak a button, numerically. Maybe should heal 10-15% more, maybe CD 10sec not 15sec, or at least cost less AP.

I don't know. On it's own, it's not great. But you layer it in.

4x pre-HoT your party > Phoenix's Rejuvenation > group heal with 5x mechanic gives another group HoT.

That's 3x HoTs ticking on your group, plus a group heal landing. Takes a lot of sting out of an attack.

I've said this before, but I'd love to see the mechanic changed so it's similar to the AM/Shaman mechanic.

Abilities are no longer tied to plans; rather, abilities have a base effect that gets better as you change plan.

This could easily be based on the current abilities and their placement within the plan system. eg:

Tuffer N' Nails
No plan - +10% parry for you (or defensive target, doesn't matter which)
Gud plan - +10 parry for you and defensive target (just as it is now with its buff and plan placement)
Best plan - +10 parry and +150 ini for you and defensive target (weaker version of oathbound)

T'ree Hit Combo
No plan - costs 25ap/sec (same as the other channels)
Gud plan - 15ap/sec
Best plan - no ap cost (just as it is now)

This way, players can create their own combos depending on the situation. The combo system becomes much more dynamic, giving it a higher skill ceiling and rewarding quick decision-making and situational awareness to build a combo and pre-plan how it will affect the next one. At the moment, the skill ceiling for the mechanic is all about working around the mechanic, rather than with it.
