Cast-Time of Paladin Remonstrate Heal Too Long

Cast-Time Far too Long on this Spell to be of any Use.

Thats easy... dont use it. Splash, wave, sincere light.

Lol most unhelpful comment of the year goes to ..... Ofearl!

Remonstrate and splash have the same cast time, well longer for splash because you have to find a place to cast it. Wave is 3 second cast, sincere is .5 so it is faster but it is a smaller heal.

Remonstrate has the same cast time as the previous spells in that line all the way back to Denouncement from HoT. Not sure what your intent or hope is. Could it be faster? Yea, would be sweet if it was, did more damage and the heal was bigger. But Paladin's don't get any love in EQ.

I don't know, being a paladin feels pretty good to me.

his right poor paladins not like they got an entire expantion that cater to them as their play ground. poor paladins =(

Would it be nice if it was faster for when tanking? Yeah. Is it too slow to cast? No.

You think we have peaked, its not even March!

Yes, but the year is young. Hope still exists. And to prove that, here is a recent Dilbert cartoon:

If you want a hill to die on, make it an ability similar to reavers bargain.

OK, this had me thinking again. Didn't take long..

Why would you want to use this for TANKING?!

Looking at in game description of rk1, its 4871 less hate using this. I guess less hate if good for tanking... With my focus effects it is .8 seconds cast time...

Now I use Sincere Light, I'll use rk1 for compare...

[58826/10807] Sincere Light

Skill: Alteration

Mana: 1572

Target: Single Ally AutoCorrect

Range: 200'

Resist: Beneficial, Blockable: Yes

Focusable: Yes

Casting: 0.5s, Recast: 5.5s, Timer: 9, Rest: 1.5s

1: Increase Current HP by 8423

Text: A dazzling light covers your body.

Bathes your allied target or your enemy's target in light, healing #1 hit points.

So, Less mana, faster casting, Damn near same # of HP's healed before any focus/crit... and doesn't lower your hatred in the mob. Look at the other aspects, Remonstrate can be reflected, meaning what you just cast can be worthless, also basically same recast time....

or why not use Valiant line, its a better heal + big single target agro + chance of ae agro, for less mana

Also remonstrate line also is AE deagro.

1 out of 26. Perspective is everything. You get every expansion as your playground.

It's a good spell but it's not a better heal. Valiant Healing is one of the several paladin heals that do not fully focus because the casting level is 255.

Except that it shares a timer with Protective.
Which spell are you finding better since the targeting change?

might not be, haven't paid attention, been enjoying the dps from pally on this xpac! I find that spell is enough to not worry about the downsides of the others, still a better all around spell.

clearly your confuseing warriors with Sks go figure
