So as you can see the title, I was wondering what could be a role of Mystic in the Zhen party. Could it replace at least one cleric? Since they have a group healing skill "Comforting Mist" and more other usefull buffs after 60lv.

I'm quite a "newbie" b:surrender with the whole Zhenning issue and I was wondering if Mystic could do anything usefull.

Thanks b:victory

    Unfortunately no one zhens anymore since new instances like Frostcovered and Phoenix Valley have been added, but idk if a mystic could replace a cleric in zhen at least not at the lower lvls. I say this because the damage reduction from BB is awesome and at 5x particularly people don't tend to have good enough gear to survive all the dmg. But maybe this would be different with a seeker zhenning. Especially with blood paint. Higher lvl zhenning would be do-able with mystic healing I'm sure since I've been able to solo heal many of my FC runs.

    I see. I didn't mean to put Mystic instead of Cleric of course. But Mystic to be just an addition to Cleric - additional healing.

    But thanks :)

    Oh well extra healing really shouldn't be needed and I really don't think mystic would be good DDing for a zhen squad, mostly because the DDing comes from actualy 'zhens' and our two aoes can often cause mobs to run, and our other source of aoe besides storm requires two sparks and has a cooldown longer than it lasts. Maybe they could be on look-out for zhen crashers. Though sins might be a bit better at it in stealth and they can also give blood paint if there is a seeker in squad. xD

    Zen parties are a group of people that get together to AoE mobs higher levl then themselves.

    Usually it has a cleric ( for BB ) a barb to pull and round up the mobs, a wizard and an archer for their awesome AoE skills.

    Hope it helped

    Mystics are awesome in zhenning if you're not the main healer. Been in gammas (which involves a lot of zhenning) with a cleric as main healer and a mystic as a DD. Everyone loves the sheer damage the Cragglord deals. b:dirty
