    Sorry for splitting that across 2 posts - it hit the max character limit for a single post.

    Well said. Lifetaps are at least 3 times more powerful, towards the goal of killing an NPC, then a direct heal imho. They should not be commensurate at all.

    I believe the Devs know this because of the introduction of Vampiric Consumption (EoK) replacing Vampiric Strike on knight weapons. This is a check on SK power and forcing this on Paladins is an itemization failure.
  3. sojero One hit wonder


    your heal can be modded where ours cannot, and ours has a max heal amount. So while the sk one is a bit better overall because it does damage, yours when abilities are stacked can heal for more, though it takes more abilities for this to be done, so not really worth it imo, but you should almost always have some heal mod going when you are tanking, so its gonna at least double the heals at all times. Also if sk lucky crit every time, it is 4k dps, neither the sk or the pally one is that good.
  4. sojero One hit wonder


    Really sounds like you should roll an sk and drop the pally :) You want what we give up being able to help others for, while still being able to help others. We have been told in the past NO to many abilities that would help others because we are SK! You cannot have your cake and eat it to, the devs don't really like that it seems, they call it "class balance" for some reason.

    I actually really liked when a lot of SK dps was dots, and maybe it will go back to that with the dot revamp (may it happen before I die) and necro can put out some good heal amount as well, they have dots, swift dots, and lifetaps that they can use, so its not really abnormal for SK to be able to as well. They changed sk to be mainly strait lifetaps a while ago, even more so than the necro.

    Our self healing is wasted a ton of the time in most situations, just as your healing as well, my over heal on my parses is amazing! But when we really need it, it is great, just as when your group really needs them heals, or your raid really needs that splash, its really nice isn't it?

    Carry on my wayward son.

    I have to agree with Sojero on this one. I honestly thing the HToT change is going to be HUGE for Paladins in helping us to take advantage of our healing in a “quality of life” conducive way. Again guys, the goal isn’t to bash on SK’s- we’re here to talk about improvements to the Paladin class. Quality of life, thematic, balance, and in my opinion the most important thing is that we stay unique and DO NOT simply become the “good(vs evil) sk”.

    Blessed Aura is +5%, assuming you meant that one?

    FTFY.

    Really? I thought that's what it meant to play an SK?

    It is. That's why it doesn't apply to pallies!

    How so? What spells are going to make a HUGE difference simply because we don't have to toggle target? Paladins are going to need a fancy new HToT heal spell, or two, to even earn a spell gem that makes this heralded change worth talking about.

    Merciful Light, y’all hate on it but it will be in every rotation of mine once that change is implemented. SEVERELY underrated spell in my opinion, and will add a ton of baseline healing thru the night. I could also see a shorter spam key like Crush - Crush - Valiant - Merciful - Burst being very utilitarian while opening up 2 spell slots that are currently used in my 7 gem spam key. After determining that Paladins are Mainly auto attack damage, I’d be less concerned with burst being in my rotation assuming I don’t have any twitch cure responsibilities.
  12. Wulfhere Augur

    That's hardly a change at all. Protective Devotion already has all the qualities of a future HToT Merciful Light. The huge spell you dream of is already in game. You've said why you don't use Protective.

    What you're repeating is that it would be huge for you to have Protective Devotion Guard stack with cleric Vie.

  13. Metapsyche Augur

    *grins* I would LOVE for Guard to Stack (at least not overwrite) Vie, you are correct.

    Devotion: 6900 heal, 1 second cast, 2151 mana
    Merciful: 6900 heal, .5 second cast, 1310 mana

    To me ,these are wildly different spells. If you’re making the case for .5 second devotions then hells yah brother, I’m in.

    However, in the current state devotion is of little use to me in my current raids. But that could certainly change!

    **for what it’s worth I find guard overwriting Vie to be a fatal flaw in this spell, id even argue that it is borderline detrimental to use on raids.

    What you are saying doesn't make much sense. As a paladin you should have Fortress on at all times - even with the reduced duration vs vie the impact is far greater. During our disc set (armor/mantle) those take precedence and nullify the vie from cleric. During all other times Fortress stacks and as you cast protective it doesn't bounce the vie so you only ever fluctuate 5% vie (10% from shining vs 15% from protective).

    Because of the 400% proc mod on Shining health and the fact that it can be modded if you aren't using it for a 72 min duration or a one time 6k heal.

    Unless I'm missing something that has changed so drastically since we argued to have the slot changed to stack with fortress - I don't understand what is going on here.

    hmmm it looks like I may have had my wires crossed. I was definitely thinking that fortress and guard both occupied Slot 1. I guess I stand corrected on protective being “detrimental”. Touché sir!

    From that aspect I would agree that devotion is superior to Guard of Vie (not fortress obviously). That puts protective devotion into the realm of holdover spell to spam until defenses come back up. I could see value in that.

    The only true heal that is fast enough to be of any real use as a targets target heal is burst, but that universal cool down is brutal.

    Aren't we all making that case in this thread?
  18. Wulfhere Augur

    Agreed. Burst is supposed to be available to emergency heal anyone in range, infrequently.

    Assuming no spell haste improvements, I can see these spell gem trades for improved survival:
    • 1 Burst and 1 Light (hedging cool downs) for Censure + Protective
    • 2 Bursts for Censure + Protective
    • Burst for Censure
    • Light for Protective (both are on Timer 9)
    I'm expecting at least 1 fancy new combat heal spell that will narrow those choices. A modernized Timer 9 spell seems like the best place to retool.
