Suggestion: linking abilities in Battle RegimenFollow

Not sure if this has been suggested before.

I was just thinking about battle regimens in XIV and skill chains in XI, and how much simpler skill chains were in general. Battle regimens just seem needlessly more complex. So, I was thinking of how to make BRs more effective.

What I came up with was to make non-offensive abilities link together in BR to create a more powerful version or to apply the effects on everyone in the party.

An example would be using "Raging Strike -> Still Precision" in BR mode would enhance the attack and accuracy of everyone in the party for the next 10 seconds.

Linking "Raging Strike -> Still Precision -> Weapon Skill -> Weapon Skill" would enhance the attack and accuracy of those two weapon skills in addition to the benefits you already get from linking 2 weapon skills...as well as apply an attack and accuracy bonus to everyone for the next 10 seconds.

Linking "Stoneskin -> Rampart -> Bloodbath" would apply an enhanced stoneskin to everyone in the party, increase everyone's defense for the next 20 seconds, and cause everyone's next single attack to drain HP.

I know that this would make BRs more complex than it already is, but since BRs are already generally more of a hassle than skill chains, might as well get the most out of it.

Thoughts?

BR's are pretty damn effective as-is. Their problem lies elsewhere.

But ya, sure they could do that while they're at it.

I have always thought they need/intend to add more "moves" to the system, and really like the examples given by the OP.

Also, I would LOVE to be able to throw a cure while waiting for others to que up. Died too many times trying to either cancel out and cure myself or someone else.
