Squad Members Without Charms

I went 4 weeks or less with my cashstop gold hp/mp charms.I would of liked to have seen them last longer especialy my mp charm but at 75% it should be reduced to 25%.This my Cleric and I have lots of mana at my lvl.I have Veno as wel but idon't sem to use that much energy compared to to my cleric.

I don't need my mana restored at 75% I need it restored at 10% really.I am using a potion now as later I may get another spirit charm.I believe this makes players play them game better to use thier energy wisely.I play anther game as healer and we have ot manage our energy and there a no charms we just use off hands and good weapons.The same goes with the melee class they use good weapons and shields.

I would say the charms are crutch in way and meding is part of the game story.It would be nice if you toggle them off when just questing doing FBs is good time to use them.

i think this is to make sure all classes with any builds can use mana charms to sustain any lvl of channeling (cough archers). hypothetically, say you have lvl 11 barrage, thats 655 mana every 3s. if charm pops at 10% like you suggest, you've just spent coins on a charm but still can't sustain your ult! do u get it? a lvl 99 full dex archer has about 2.2k base mana, at the third wave (655x3) you wont have enough mana for the wave after that but your mana won't be at 10% yet. the charm does jack and the channeling stops.

50% is more appropriate. or maybe we should be able to set when its appropriate for the charm to pop,

That all depends on how much energy they are suing though compared to a Cleric or Wizard.When I say 10 % it will fully recover at 75% you aren't using much energy.

The other game I mentioning is Guild Wars where balance is everything as you need more skill to play it.

if they take time to med, kick them out of the squad.
hate those kind of people. selfish.

ok here we go

all i can say is for those ppl who can't wait 30 seconds i really feel bad for your girlfirends or should i say ex girls. ok yeah..

and repair costs to you archers and clerics enjoy not spending a dime after a day of runing bosses or fb's while your tank is saddled with yes 100k repair bill.

.

I would like to remind you of our skill costs being Clerics in coin and spirit alone.

as a wiz, using charms is not a good deal. i don't use hp charms because i can heal myself so easily i rarely use any hp potion. and mp charms are quite too expensive to me because i have nearly 11k mp. mp potions are also expensive because they don't really help much... the only thing i use is arctic orbs.

I didn't buy any charms yet, all I do is make myself a lvl. 1 hp rejuv. and lvl 2 mana rejuv. My hp and mana stay full constantly while grinding or farming mats. Make a bunch and go for hours with no downtime. Herbs are easy to farm and they don't cost anything.

At the end of the day it's down to individuals how they play. If you don't like people that med, don't squad with them - personally it doesn't bother me. I always use a HP charm as I'm a squishy low HP Pureint mage that does plenty of fb's / TT's / bossruns / zhens, but to be honest the only time that I have a mp charm on is when I am zhenning or when I've finished zhenning but still have charm left.

Just under 11k mana and using spark/sutra to regain 10% mana each time you can go a fair way before needing to med up. Having said that, if mp charms ticked at 50% then I'd wear one all the time - it's just that when I wear a charm now I only have access to around 2.7k of my mana before the charm ticks, which isn't a lot when you are grinding...

I hate charming. Those stupid things get in the way of how I usually do things. I tend to drop my MP down to about 10%, use Nature's Grace, Soul Transfusion, and then Metabolic Boost. Then, I keep killing things.

Now... I will say one thing... After my latest fiasco PKing, I do use them for PK battles. I know the other side is going to have them, so I might as well even the playing field, you know? But that still irks me, because afterwards, I still have the stupid things equipped when I go back to grinding. I personally think they should NOT be a bound item, and be able to be equiped, and unequiped at will. Just make them a "Does not drop upon death" Item. You'd probably make a LOT of people very happy.

Back to the original topic. You wanna meditate? Go ahead. But if I catch you just sitting there the entire time I'm fighting, I'm going to kick you faster than you can say "WTF?". And meditating at 80% of your MP left? Don't even think about it. You'd better actually need to meditate before you take a seat. I squaded with you for a reason. We're both there, doing a quest together. Emphasis on TOGETHER. That doesn't mean you can go get a bite to eat, or have a smoke break, or chat with your guildies while the Veno does all your work for you. I'm doing you a favor. I could do just as well without your help, get more EXP and drops, and not have to worry about what's attacking you.

I do apologize if I seem ranty. I've had a lot of bad experiences with people that ask for help, find the nearest tree, and park themselves in it.

If you're getting irritated by people not playing the game how you are playing the game, then the problem isn't them, it's you.

I totally agree. I am actually surprised that it took so many posts until yours to finally set the original QQers straight.

I can't believe someone actually had the pelotas to complain about people resting during combat and secondly complaining how they don't want to "not" squad with them.

This is probably in the top 5 most stupid QQing I have yet to read on the forums.

I am not even going to suggest what the OP and any supporters should do in these situations because it is sooooo ridiculous.
