    Leave healing to the clerics, buddy.

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    i think it's pretty good.
    Most of the other classes have their own healing spell, so why can't we have a healing spell too?
    I LIKE ITb:victory

    Define "most of the other classes"

    Mages get some **** healing skill, other than that only clerics have healing skills.

    I'm not a cleric and I don't want to be one.

    ehh the healing is pretty bad.
    DX the cast time is so bad~~
    But we can in really rare situations save the cleric/ buy time for the cleric to res someone if they die in a FB run or so.
    b:victory

    Interesting idea though.

    BM's have Diamond Sutra

    Clerics are Healers

    Wizards have a heal, not very good, but it's better than nothing.

    Veno's have Soul Transfusion and an actual heal that restores 50% I believe at maxed level.

    Barb's have a high enough regen with passives that they don't take hours to regen while meditating.

    Not saying an archer should have any heal, just answering the question.

    Why the hell would shooting an arrow at someone heal them? That makes no sense.

    Also, Archers are DDs, so they get low health, therefore making healing based on percentages just about useless.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    the idea of shooting an arrow and healing isnt so good and yes we are DD but we should also have a healing move of some sort and it was left out that barbs also have a healing move ontop of having a high regen

    IDK how i'd feel about an archer's heal I play tanker so i'm guessing any heals to save me hide is good b:pleased so yeah healing arrow would be decent just would have to manage the regen amount so they won't become healing archers.

    Technically speaking you are incorrect.

    Mages have some **** healing skill, but BM's also have a self recovery skill, diamond sutra.

    We have a mana regen...and when equipped with a MP charm...it becomes a fail.

    So why wht say u .....

    Considering we do quite a bit of damage losing hp based on that percentage while healing another friendly would be suicidal. We are not tanks and hence we do not get enough HP to sacrifice like this.

    A self buff to increase HP recovery would be good though.

    ...wow

    ya you should also totally be able to have a single human shoot out flaming dragons from *where the sun doesn't shine*.

    Also you should totally have humans able to shoot out cones of light that hurts you.

    b:chuckle

    Actually you should also make everyone get fatigued when they run too much. As well as take out flying and most of the ground mounts like the Raptor since they're either extinct or mythical.

    ....Just like real life.

    It is an interesting idea. Would be useful in FBs and such. d(^.-d)
    Also I WOULD SO WUV if wizards could have soul tranfusion. xD
    that would be epic 1 large health pot = full mana lol~~

    Suggestion 1:

    Change the skill name to "Healing Feathers" and change the flavor text to indicate the archer is sending feathers of healing over to a target. Remove any ammunition dependency.


    Suggestion 2:

    Change the skill name to "Acupuncture Arrow" and change the flavor text that you are shooting arrows at acupuncture points on a target, thus healing them.

    =)

    What if I miss? Oops, poor barb.

    By the way, clerics get a skill that lets them pretend to shoot arrows. One skill that lets us pretend to heal would only seem fair.

    Actually I wasn't implying at all that the game should be non-fictional in nature, as obviously most elements are in some part fantastic, though if you're happy to look ignorant by inferring that whatever; but there's a limit to the degree of fantasy involved in the game, and should be in any game... I'm all for archers getting healing skills, hell let us be able to tank well while they're at it... god knows the class balance is **** enough as it is... but the ability to heal shouldn't come at muzzle velocity out of an implement designed to kill

    I'd rather have a self-heal (double spark nonwithstanding) than sacrifice part of my HP to play psuedo-cleric. Especially since archers have lowish HP in general due to the builds that we kinda sorta need to use to be effective at DD.

    just make it that it can't be used on self, so its just PURE support.

    I like the idea to regenerate. Means we can last longer with close ranged attacks since our damage is already decrease.

    But i don't think we will ever get to heal others coz like some of them says, clerics are all over that skill.

    Or maybe improve our wing of protection skill. Make it last longer or absorb more damage.
