The above thread discusses the patch message of December 19, and people confirmed the casting time was increased to 30 seconds.

Change 2: 30 seconds and 7.5 min 1hp/tick buff preventing recast

The second change occurred about 11 weeks after Velious released. Donal's BP = 30 second cast time with the effect "Complete Heal" having a component buff that lasts 7.5 minutes, non-removable, non-dispellable, 1hp/tick preventing other Donal's BP clicks from landing as long as the buff is in place.

Change 3: Celestial Healing/Velious Cleric BPs -> Celestial Healing Casting time increased from 24 seconds to 1 minute

An additional 2 weeks after the mega Donal's BP nerf, the Velious Cleric BPs (Thurg/Kael/SS/PoG) get nerfed by increasing the casting time from 24 seconds to 1 minute.



Change 4: Celestial Healing/Velious Cleric BPs -> Celestial Healing changed to Mark of Karn

A week later the Velious Cleric BPs are all nerfed from Celestial Healing to Mark of Karn. Mark of Karn is also upgraded to heal more per a hit.

Change 1 and Change 2 has already happened. Change 2 should not happen for 11 weeks into Velious.

Donal's Chestplate(s) finished. The first change will likely go live with Velious since there is no rule for a 14 day appearance.

From this post it seems like the intent was to do Change 1 on Velious launch, but not Change 2.

bump, although this is rapidly becoming an obsolete issue if it doesn't get fixed in time
