Group heal disease and Group heal Poison

[Balbor]

Anyone else out there think that primary healers should get group heal disease and poison in there healing spec line, at the higher (30s) level.

 

[old.Bubble]

that would nullify the point of AOE dot....unless they made it something stupid like 50% mana cost (i think single target posion cure is 10% power)

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

Make it an RA... nah, not gonna happen, it would actually be useful

 

[Cush]

Why a group cure disease? whats the point of me ae disease spamming those silly SOS'ing GP'ing bad guys

 

[hangianix]

Well, I think at least a single target heal with cure disease/posion would be nice (as dd with snare).

 

[Damon_D]

Sure you can have that.. then give my shaman a aoe drain power spell...thank you very much..

 

[Freia]

I have wished for group cure poison at times but i think they might aswell take away poison and disease completely if they introduced that.
OR perhaps make it use LOADS of power and/or have really, really long castingtime, oh and put it really high up in a spec line.
Still i think it would make disease and poison way too useless. They are supposed to cause some hassle.

sounds like somethign for the shaman mend linie

Sounds like something for midgard to counter alb/hib uber ra´s

Nah, I don't like the idea of group cures. A cure like that could mitigate 5/6ths of the damage from a DoT (after resists). If you were mitigating 5/6ths of the damage from a nuke or melee people would be up in arms.

As it is AE DoTs and disease are manageable through single cures and group/spread heals.

Want protection from DoTs? - get a Healer/Druid/Cleric with spread heal in your group.

Aye Trine is spot on.

As for Ra's... you dont wana hear me whine again .

Trine actually that´s kinda what BoF and BaoD does aint it??

 

[Damon_D]

Aye but we are mid's and we dont get such things..we get a blunt stick ( pointy would be to uber ) and have to make due

1fg vs 1fg, shammy runs thru your group, pbaoe disease, they win

i want a group disease heal would make my life as a cleric easier against groups with shammys, atleast on pvp shammys are the best support chars, pbaoe disease lets the friendly healers heal cos they can outrun the tanks.

and with resists today, ae dot does f*ck all damage anyhow, group cure poison wouldnt be so handy

Aye, and they shouldn't be in the game either.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

Disease breaks mez. AE disease has a penalty associated with its use which makes sure it's use is limited. If you're running against a group with only a Shaman for CC you're likely to be at an advantage regardless of disease.

Most Shaman will only use single-target disease in skirmishes, and only use PBAE as an escape (not a very good one, either).

I guess Shaman combine PBAE disease with AE DoT at keeps? I would imagine that would be tricky to deal with. But then Shaman DoTs aren't generally as powerful as Alb/Hib DoTs as Shaman don't benefit from acuity buffs.

Hehe Trine i agree. But imo mid should be uber..we follow gods. =D

ST is 7% pow afaik.


Group versions would be too powerful, but a colored healthbar in mini-window would be nice imo
