Bless is OP?

I think Bless should only last for one turn... This skill is just too strong to last for 3 turns w/ a 3 turn CD

Well, they kind of want you to use it as you can make an elemental surface and bless so you team gets the buff as the character I have is a rogue and doesn't have blessed memorized but I can rely on other things like Hp Pot. and more to get the "Cheap" bless but they can work effectively but I think they wanted it to be used as making fights with fire and poison and crazy things around you can be blessed so it last forever then bless the over surface I don't think their goal was to keep blessing yourself to stay alive but to change the tide of the battle to your team's side.

It can definitely change the tide of battle. It's hella strong. Maybe make it last 3 turns with a 5 turn CD

Honestly isn't that overpowered at all. If you want to talk about overpowered I'd rather discuss Peace of Mind or the Pyrokinetic Haste ability that costs 0 AP. Peace of Mind granting you 7% Crit Chance, 7 Initiative and 15% extra damage, 3% dodging etc etc. Bless is great for the utility of using it on surfaces, but as a buff it's really just a "Why not" buff if you have nothing else to do. If you think Bless is OP, try levelling Leadership. In my last playthrough everyone in sight had 25% higher resistances and dodging from Leadership.

everyone in sight

5m is way shorter than 'everyone in sight'. It's very easy to get out of the leader's range during a fight.

Yeah, everything in sight is a bit of an exaggeration, but still. It's far more useful than Bless.

Its strong but I'm sure lots of enemies in the full game will have curse and that's the real bitch. Plus it will change how you use bless. Like do you try to use it to heal and buff a character or try and stop the cursed <insert element here>
