Don't use anything but Astral Shield and auto-attacks. Enjoy as you actually generate 0 threat.

This doesn't work.
I even dropped Astral Seal completely and only "heal" through Sacred Flames and the passive Repurpose procs. Things still want my tight booty.
Next time maybe test this stuff before posting about it.
And now that every mob between 1 to 60 has had it.. not so tight anymore! Muwhahaha!!

You are 100% incorrect. I use nothing Astral Shield and I don't pull any threat. It's Sun Burst that pulls insane amount of threat. Healing Wound, AS, and Bastion don't pull insane amount of threat like Sun Burst does.
99% of people dont understand how threat works in this game. they start fights way to close to mobs and pull threat way to easily. in this game distance is a large mitigation in threat. the closer u are to enemies the more threat u will build and the farther away u are the less u will build....maneuvers such as knocking things back and then running the opposite direction will simply drop a ton of your threat. this game has nothing like normal threat building from games people are used to. distance from the mobs is a large part of threat in this game
False information right here.
Why? I'm able to keep my party alive just from AS alone in T2 dungeons. I'll toss a healing wound here and there. Since I've stopped using Sun Burst, I haven't been pulling every single ****ing mob that my group is fighting.
Is absolutely true about Astral Seal and Astral Shield. Once the other team members manage to get away from the cleric the adds, if the cleric cast ONE SINGLE ASTRAL SEAL they drop anyone and come back to bite the cleric's <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>
Fortunately if the cleric is casting Astral SHIELD they won't react in the same way so the cleric is safe, until a new wave of fresh mobs will spawn, and the history will repat.
The lower lvl clerics will have to adapt their play style till they get to have the shield. Stuff becomes more easy after that. And first thing any cleric should do after they get the shield, is to cast that in divine mode. Life saver for the whole team even in the most difficult situations. Put that the shields stack up, i advice to use the shield daily whenever you can.
About sunburst, is not true that attracts more threat than astral seal, nothing is gaining more threat than one single astral seal, and you will learn that in the most painful way on the lvl 56 instance (and the skirmish as well lol) the Karrundax one. If you thought Mad dragon was hard, wait to see this crazy stuff coming ;D
Advice, make good stockpile of injury kits ahahaha!!!
Cheers!:cool:
That's funny because I don't. I'll be sure to make a video tonight and post it in this thread.
man iono how's that but i get the whole room if i cast the seal not the shield. Usually i let the tank start to attack mobs. I don't make a single move till he doesn't cast his skills. After that i put my shield under his feet and i fast move away from my spot cos i know some random mob will still chase me still, till a CW/TR will gett it away from me.
If i die, i won't die during trash mobs, i'll die on last boss cos too many adds on me or smth.
But for sure this changes if i use everytime astral seal instead, especially on the bridge skirmish or the karrundax instance. Man i hate those 2 dungeons!
