They would have to severely nerf [Divinity] if the strength-lock is removed.

This 3 point talent (without STR-lock) is all of the following combined:

equal to 6 points of [Deadened Nerves]
better than 3 points of [Focused Will]
on par with 4 points [Nurturing Instinct]
not to mention it even has a decent Capstone

That's a value of roughly 13-15 talent points all wrapped up in 3 points. Hell, I play a PvE healer and would take it for the 60% stamina -> healing power conversion alone.

[Divinity] would be NUTS on an Agility-based, self-healing bear tank.
It would be a must have for Spirit-based, PvP healers.
I never played MFB, but I would think any tank would welcome -6% damage taken and +12% healing received.

It's fine how it is. Please don't get it nerfed for prot-pally builds.

Of course, the talent is quite strong, but in my opinion it would be good if they made some talent/RE now so that it can also be used for heal build (champion of justice with this RE you go through spirit and you are just a cast healer again (Str doesn't interest you at all) or you can play it as a STR DPS that heals (nobody uses it like that because it's more complicated))

Otherwise, the one is that you have to be in Righteous fury and have STR (which as a str healer is not advantageous to take tank threat)

@ForPony I'm sorry but you're not understanding how the talent works- You only gain the effects of Divinity while Righteous Fury is active. You can't use it while in defensive stance, mana-forged barrier, or bear form. And you could never use divinity as a group healer because of the threat generation on Righteous Fury. It is ONLY for RF tanks. That being said, please reconsider your downvote.

@Gulron I simply just read what the tooltip said. If there is extra hidden stuff involved, my bad.

But my point still stands. Because of its limited scope the [Divinity] talent is balanced. And that without the STR-attribute or RF requirement, this (3) point talent would be as powerful as a (13-15) point talent.

@ForPony The builder on the website doesn't show everything. In addition to requires your primary talent to be strength, it also requires Righteous Fury. This can't be used with any other tank form/stance. Please undo the downvote

@Gulron
Your initial post is requesting that the "Strength-Lock" is to be removed, not the [Righteous Fury] requirement.

I agree with you that if [Divinity] has a [Righteous Fury] requirement that that needs to be removed. However, I absolutely don't think the "Strength-Lock" should be lifted from this talent without seriously nerfing it in the process. It is too powerful of a (3) point talent for Agility-tanks and Spirit-pvp-healers.
