If any of you dont already know this. the res buff is a target buff. meaning you can cast it only any player. however its duration is the same as its cooldown meaning u choose 1 player. while grinding solo its great to use on yourself.

However in a sqaud... ALWAYS cast the res buff on the cleric. that way even in a sqaud wipe. the cleric can res from the res buff then res all of you b:pleased

So mystic + cleric = No going to town :)b:victory
Killing level 80's with a lvl 60 is a lot more fun than killing level 90's with a level 100.

    I thought I remember seeing skill descriptions a while ago and the res buff only had like a 15s CD and 15min duration. O.o

    I could be wrong, but that's what I remember.

    so if what yer saying is correct, that means, i will never have to have this convo then:

    Random player: can i have your auto res buff please?

    Me: why, are you planning on doing something stupid in the next 30 minutes?

    Random player: no, but, just incase.....

    Me: no, high mp cunsumption, no pots left.

    Random player: ahh come on dude, don't be mean.

    Me: Blocking you now.

    however, i hope you are incorrect, because if it isn't like you say, i'm casting it on everyone in my squad during dungeon runs.

    If he's right about this, then yeah, the cleric would be the best candidate for it. But if it is realistic or possible to just give the buff to the entire squad, then that's even better. You never know what could happen in an instance run and that would make things a lot easier on the cleric, not having to risk letting the tank die to resurrect someone.

    CD is 30 seconds, just checked on CN

    Oh, and it restores 8% od lost XP and 23% of total HP/MP, which should be at lvl 10 80% XP and 50% HP/MP...

    From what I hear from a friend who looked into the CN way. To cast res costs a mirage celestone. That's if we get CN version ( I know some things change between here and there and I hope that is one ) Just liek Seeker party def buff takes a mirage from what he was saying. But, this isn't about them.

    But yeah would cast on cleric first, heck, if I was a cleric I'd pay a mirage (12-18k ea) to cast res rather then paying 50k per res scroll.

    Again, we wont know until tomorrow/later tonight for sure, that's just what I heard :P

    No they don't cost mirage. I posted sage/demon of the res already. 88% exp for demon and 95% exp for sage. Revive with 50% hp for sage and 100% hp for demon. High mp cost though...around 2k? 30 sec cd and res last for 30min

    Casting it on the cleric is a no-brainer.
    And yet I'll still see people casting it on themselves, I bet.

    Ah, glad to hear false rumors/info. I'd much rather use my mirages for refining my gear rather then a buff. 2k is pricey (at least my level 50 pure cleric only have 4k, but then again I don't know their mana per stat point compared to cleric) Though, of course, demon/sage skills aren't attainable until 89 so I'd sure hope they have over my clerics mp xD But, from that said, sounds like pure is the way to go build wise, more mp to play with. At least, thats what I'll be doing. ^^

    Of course, some people are only out for themselves, though, kinda stupid. That's like a cleric not healing someone cause they're too busy attacking. Though, I could see casting it on cleric and then yourself and tank (tanks if your squad isn't smart enough to understand aggro) because a cleric in BB (if squad really needs BB) can't drop BB in order to res. Squad wipe 9/10 that is tried but usually the ones I see who die are sins due to aggro steal or people who don't understand tagging mobs vs fighting them entirely. Attack the mob your tank is attacking or don't QQ when you die. b:chuckle

    Its understandable to cast the buff on the tank if the cleric is in BB, but if not in BB would you still cast it on anyone but the cleric? Because if lvl10/11 at max only recovers ~88% EXP and the cleric has lvl11 res which recovers 100%... If cleric res doesn't overwrite other revives I doubt the mystic's will either. So, anyone know if the res overwrites?

    Personally I think that if the ressed player cares about exp then they should just carry Guardian Scrolls. So I wouldn't make strategy based on that. Maybe that's just me though.

    True. In most of my game-play I rarely find people who still carry scrolls though, in pvp there's a few, but in instances and pve I still get called halfway around the map to res people. Having lvl11 res, I've had some people pay me for tele fees and even wait up to an hour for me to finish a bh and go res them.

    Ohwell, if I play a mystic, I'll just make sure to max the res and ask before buffing anyone but the cleric.

    clerics aren't dead because no one will replace their powerful heals. and they have the option of ressing. for mystics it's a set buff. that consumes a lot of mana. trust me guys clerics r far from dead :D
    Do you hate me? Good, that makes for an adequate conversation starter.
