    When I used to play Mystic I really liked BitC for being a really fast heal. I generally played my Mystic support oriented so I mostly just enjoyed the healing/support skills which are different from Clerics and offer a different play style. I often miss playing Mystic but I have no time for alts right now :(

    Bramble Tornado, for a couple of reasons 1, when in nw at bridge battles i can puch enemies into the towers, works awsome on barbs LOL. 2, when i'm farming and i see that red named pk-r I go into pk mode bramble tornado them into a group of mobs and watch them die, or a world boss if im really lucky. had one person drop lunar g16 armor, he asked for it back and i just npc'd it in front of him LOL, haven't seen his toon on game since and his faction said he quit LOL LOL.

    Falling Petals! I'm Demon and when I first got Demon FP, I got it because it healed more and not for the extra effect. It's turned into one of those skills I don't think I could live without. :P

    Lucky Break is a close second.

    Absorb Soul is sadly kind of weak at endgame. Almost everyone has significant amounts of pdef so the large channeling time just gives their charms more time to tick.

    And level 11 AS doesn't ignore defense levels.

    And level 11 AS doesn't ignore defense levels.

    It may not be as good as pre-endgame but I wouldn't call it at all weak. AS is the only attack that we have that deals more than 100% base damage which since the last expansion is the most important part in an attack (it was before the expansion too but it made it more so). Also including the fact that we're the only class that has 2 m. atk buffs that stack with eachother and with spark and cleric buff, that 125% will benefit more from them then the other skills.

    Then you have NV's debuff which makes equivalent to being in a perma Lucky Break for AS. But also adding that chance of x1.3 damage.

    And at endgame with the channel you get from gear + Rapid Growth it's far from having a large channel time (+ the proc from Storm Dance).

    So basically even if you have an endgame AA class that has equal mdef and pdef, AS is still viable thanks to how much support it has.

    what i know is, absorb soul hurt more than wizz fire ulti with spark+udine (exclude if ulti crit), so its nice coz dont cost 2 park,neither one and hurt well (in endgame most of caster hurt low on each other with magic or on bm with mdef marrow)

    only downside is the slow casting, but well, that still fixeable and since it is 2sec cooldown pretty well work with pharma pot (i dont remember the name but give very huge channeling boost for 5sec, maybe lv4 pot idk exactly, a friend with mystic use it alot time in pk)

    Blade Tempest is 2 times base magic attack, that's 200%, Absorb Soul is 125% (in PvP) so idk how it would hit more then BT. Unless you add all of the buffs that go with it, that I mentioned earlier, which can make it possible I guess.

    You probably mean this pot http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/items/11299 it reduces channeling entirely.

    I am not. Don't get me wrong, it is a strong attack. It's just not strong enough relative to its casting time. I can do more damage with a combo of other skills than by working absorb soul in.

    And you can only get 2 Absorb Souls off during a Zooming Thunder Powder as it still has a 2 second cooldown. Tried it out after someone suggested it for wrecking sleeping people a few weeks ago. Was not impressed, would rather use apoth slot for something else.

    My favorite Mystic skill has to be Lucky Break! Ever since I've gotten Lucky Break, I don't know how I ever lived without it! Otherwise, of the base Mystic skills, Falling Petals just has too much utility to ignore b:chuckle

    Bypass = killing target without a charm tick when his hp is right above 50%
    (2 AS doesn't make sense in this context)

    I already got through the theory, idk why it doesn't work for you in practice but you might want to spend more time on it. b:surrender
