    Ya, in general. But, providing the party with mana won't improve the survival of the party. Imo, using crowd controlling them does.

    I don't even use shield, I'm actually fully speced for crowd control, which in my opinion, the most beneficial for the party.

    when you provide mana you provide heal/tics that help you survive and tankiness for your mates. Shield for pure tanking and debuff as another type of support when 4 damages skills are usless on boss and imune.. And the weak hearth leave at the first issue. A good laught and a infernal circle as feeling for me

    When you heal, the way the mob AI is designed is that a heal will automatically out-aggro anything. The priority level in terms of aggro is significantly higher for heal. So, when you heal, you are not helping anyone in the party. You are just getting yourself killed more. Now, when you're dead, you are no use to anyone. Why, you may ask? You may think that because you're taking the aggro off of your teammates, you are helping them. That is a common mistake. When you take the aggro of your teammates and replenish their health by using your heal, you are now focused on making yourself survive instead of doing your role as a sorcerer: crowd control. Then, due to this, you end up dying and shortly after, so do your teammates. Why? Well, when you die, there is no longer any active crowd control freezing or slowing mobs. So, the brunt of these mobs go on the squishy rogues who die very quickly.

    I hope this helps you understand.

    This is very stupid and i understood but maybe not the same thing thank you. It make sens to cast heal at key moments like you stun heal stun for exmple. There are much more. Its how we see a good player.

    If mages here feel they will die to due aggro by healing, then use ankhs and pots. We rogues don't care if a mage or two dies in the process, because after defeating monsters, in the end we will be victorious. Consider it as a sacrifice for the better future of Arlor.

    Exactly, we dont sacrifice ladies but we protect them.
    We also always liked call and sacrifice other "races" on the history.
    That is the horror of the war :3

    NB: we sorcerers are asexuals, we are the produces of the Arcane powerz

    We could hardly sway farther from the topic.

    So mages are cannon fodder for rogues right? It's OK for us to spend pots and ankh so you don't need to use pots right?

    It's a waste of energy and time to respond to that guy. If you don't want to waste gold potting then u deserve to die. I'm not going to carry a useless pve skill that's just going to get me kill faster.

    heal for pve maps is basicly pointpess . Pots do a way better job in both mana and hp for the whole team. So if you decide to use heal you will either have to give up one attack skill or shield. I guess i dont have to explain why it is a bad idea to run elite without shield , so lets talk about the loss of one damage skill . Most of mage attack skills apply an AoE effect that effects the ability of mobs to move or attack ( root , stun , freeze , etc .. ) , and deals decent damage along side with DoT . A good mage can hold a group of mobs fully under control with just shield , fireball , ice and clock ( some like gale to ) . While if you use heal - it will mean that you have less crow controll , meaning that mobs will reach you and your party faster , thus causing more death and more pots wasted . ( not to add that you will be the one to die first due the heals taunt ) .


    p.s ( heal is a great skill for easier pve maps and a must have for pvp )

    Usually, I run with guildies or friends, occasionally I find randoms in runs begging for mana, I either ignore them or just waste their time "mana", "banana*"

    Also, heal is a waste of a skill slot, makes the mage the primary target by pve mobs, and is overall useless because we have a potions system in the game.
