    Exclamation About Lifegiver...

    Everytime I play a map for ex. Tindirin, Shuyal and WT4. There will always be "this guy" who crys for mana and threatens to leave game lol.

    I saw a lot of pro mages using heal in KM3 and such, so I asked myself are mages supposed to be crowd control or support type.

    My pros and cons for heal:

    PRO:
    -Heals 100% mana for all warrs and rouges in lobby.
    -Saves you alot of potions.

    CONS:
    -Takes up a skill place. I would rather use shield or an attack skill.
    -Attracts aggro which can kill you very quick (espically if your mage).
    -Makes runs (espically solos) slow.

    I'm currently using fireball, timeshift, ice, and arcane shield.

    Scroll down about 10 threads. This has been recently discussed.

    In short: heal never unless PvP spec

    A good mage never uses heal in any sort of PvE
    A good mage will always use heal in PvP, except some 1on1 situations, f.e. vs rogues... or skill switching in other fights...

    Just say pots. That's what I do. A mage who isn't running 4 attack skills or 3 skills and shield isn't doing his/her job.

    The problem with life giver is that on difficult maps, you are dead by the time you charge heal. Even if you don't die, it has a long cool down, so you gotta use pots anyways. On easy maps you don't need heal, so what's the point in wasting a skill slot.

    Any mage who considers himself an end game player should consider how crippling heal is to your party. There's no room for heal if you have clock, gale / fire, ice and light. I mean, which one of those would you give up for heal? None if you ask me

    Figured I'd add that since the update today, I'm getting 1100 hp per tick for 5 seconds from heal upgrade. It may have a place in elites now. But that's a big maybe.

    I would use Lifegiver if the cooldown was reduced and the amount of health it gives increases.
    For elites, heal is a bit iffy. Until Lifegiver gets these buffs ^^ I doubt it'll be useful in PvE or elites.

    A very big one, that's for sure.
    Crowd control will play one the most important role in new elite contents, so i hardly believe lifegiver could replace an active skill or even shield, but we'll see, can't wait ^.^

    well, "crys" for mana is ok. I met some ppl from pin*y guild whos very annoying, they insulted me for not give them mana while fighting ursoth. they keep talking the whole fight. and other player in the room found it annoying too. I wish STS have an option to mute general chat so I dont have to see/read those fcking annoying text bubble.

    Yes don't use heal in PvE unless your doing a easy map like ydra. Heal is still pretty useless xD so don't ever use it unless your doing PvP.

    Shield is prefered cause its the only way we survive. Heal takes forever and barely heals
