Soo now that I farmed 20 apo pages, it's kinda time to get a lvl 79 skill XD

So I'm kinda torn up between healing trance, and condenced thorn.
Is condenced thorn any good? I hear from alot of melees that they think frostblade is useles, and thorn is basicly nothing but a beefed up frostblade.

Soo, should I get trance? Or is condenced thorn pro after all?

    Simple question simple answer :

    Don't buy anyone of these they are totally useless!

    Condensed thorn : low damage, the buff is useless, the amount of damages added is b:shutupb:chuckle

    Healing Trance : Bloodpaint is far enough to keep you alive while grinding/aoe grinding. While in healing trance, you lose mp and you can't move!

    These skills are b:shutup :).

    Well if you are a compulsive skill buyer just pick one and buy it :).

    At 100, condensed thorn increases your unsparked damage by 12-15% ish. Useful in some situations imo.

    Healing Trance means you have full hp/mp by using 1 mana pot. It's nice to have, not omgawesomesauce, but nice.

    I got em both since i like to have all my skills. Personal preference i guess.

    Healing Trance : only use it in Cube of Fate "100sec stand" room. Otherwise i never use it.

    Condensed Thorn : never had any reason to use it, looks good but that's about it.

    If you wanna save cash, don't get em. Otherwise, personal choice.

    If I had to choose one, I'd go with healing trance, as it's very useful in a lot of situations.

    Thinkalot named one of them, and others include accidentally agro-ing a boss when the party isn't all present and SE is on cd (or you don't feel like using SE), or healing up to max health after you die (with a use of an mp pot, or mp charm, as they're cheaper).

    Just got to be creative with it I guess.

    Does this actually work? It sounds like something you could get knocked out of. I skipped the 79 skills on my sin since they didn't look worth it to me, but if something like this works, I guess they do have some niche uses.

    condenced thorn seems useless. I got healing trance only for the sake of cube.

    I'm still a bit of a ways off from the skills, but, as I have +20MP recovery in gear, I was thinking it would be great to shadow escape, heal, and come back out with full hp, but i gues u could just use pots.
