Tank changes
Every tank receives a significant change in FFXIV patch 6.1. Paladin’s Blade combo now has Requiescat, instead of Confiteor. This may take some time to get used to. However, the Blade combo also has some nice healing effects. Dark Knight’s Living Dead, which grants HP restoration with attacks, has been updated to include a new effect called Undead Rebirth. Overpower is now a regular AoE and not a cone one, which may make it a joy for warriors.
Paladin
- Iron Willrecast has been reduced from 10 seconds to 3 seconds.
- Clemency Holy Spirit and Holy Circleno more interrupt combos
- Requiescat now gives an additional effect, ” Blade of Faith Ready“, for a period of 30 seconds after Requiescat ends.
- Blade of Faith does not count as a combination action with Confiteor. It is now subject to Requiescat’s “Blade of Faith Ready” effect, which expires.
- Confiteor and Blade of Faith, Blade of Truth and Blade of Valor now all have an additional effect that restores HP with 400 cure power.
- Divine Magic Mastery II now adds a healing effect for Confiteor.
