    chromatic at level 1 was plenty for my cleric... its a non-combat heal anyways... takes too long to cast while in combat, but if you see your entire party is all less than 3/4 hp (aoe's) then send one off when ironheart is stacked up can help out ALOT


    stream, i cant really say, as i never made it that far. but considering its fast-casting instant+HoT, i'd say max the damn thing if you've already got ironheart at 10 (that was my plan) ... as far as usage, i was gonna test it with the following combo:

    stream > iron > iron > plume boss > iron > iron > iron > plume boss > repeat

    sounds good, but like i said, never got that far

    I've got my aoe heal at level 3 and that seems to be enough to fill up everyones hp bar whenever its cast (though to be honhttp://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/images/editor/separator.gifest, level 1 wasn't far off that either). So many people use charms that you have to hit it before anyone hits 1/2 hp and Ive never really seen it used to save the life of a team, its just an hp top up. I couldnt tell you if this remains the same in real high end instances, but you dont relly need to worry about those right now!

    Stream of rejuve, its just not t. At level 10 its pure healing power is higher than that of IH, but its probablem is that so much of it is in instant hp that most of it gets wasted anyway. Can be good to switch up with IH on a barb in TW, but until level 80-90 you have way more important spells to level.
    (oh, at 99, as demon, it does become somewhat godly ^^)

    Stream gives instant heal (much higher than wellspring) and also adds a heal over time as well. The downside is it has a total 3.5 second time from start to finish, where wellspring has 2.5, and IH has 2 seconds.

    Those times are channeling + cast time.

    For example, wellspring maxed heals 350 hp +20% of your base magic attack. My stream is lvl 7 atm and heals 1050 hp + 41% of your base magic attack but also adds a 1050 heal over the next 15 seconds.

    for those few ******* in here

    stream of rejunevation is prolly your best healing skill if your like 90+ at 80+ it's also handy to have but u prolly don't use it alot yet

    at about 90+ barbs start getting really alot of hp and stream gets to be reaaaly usefull if ironheart can't keep up anymore u will c that stream even at lvl 5-6 is better then ironheart

    but u need to know when to use it and how etc
    it takes a while to cast but average healing will be higher if barb is getting alot of dmg

    so it's definetly worth lvl ing depending on your lvl
    thanks to forsaken for this awesome sig b:victory[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

    Yes and does healing over time.

    I is good if you stack a few IronHearts and then use Stream = no HP loss b:victory

    I have Level 10 and use it quite often now. At Level 10:

    Heal the target's HP, recovering 1230 plus 50%
    of your base magic attack and and additional 1230 HP
    over 15 seconds.

    At Level 1 it is still a good skill to have:

    Heal the target's HP, recovering 690 plus 23%
    of your base magic attack and and additional 690 HP
    over 15 seconds.

    *FYI: 2.5 Sec channel (but if you stack IronHeart few times = b:pleased)

    I only have mine at level one so far and I already use it to give my ironheart an extra shove if it's just not doing the job. >_> like when solo healing a barb for Krimson b:surrender I probably wouldn't have made it without it. Ironheart only stacks up to 5 times I've heard, so for the really tough stuff, I ironheart 5 times and then if it's not doing the trick it's almost pointless to stack more so I use stream instead and it does really well until I stack ironheart again.

    :P I for one definitely plan on leveling it.

    Stream is a lot more powerful than Ironheart at higher levels - but it costs an arm and a leg in mana, so stick to whatever is sufficient to keep the tank alive. However, in emergencies (say another monster decides to join the fray, and your Ironheart was only -just- enough), Stream can provide a powerful influx of healing that can prevent a party wipe.

    Chromatic Healing Beam... I only use it in two situations. One is right after a barbarian has buffed the party - so everyone are healed up. And the other situation is for the two last FB69 bosses, who have a tendency to throw out a pretty nasty AOE. It takes too long to target everyone and heal them before the next AOE kills all the robes - especially if you're the only cleric present.

    So.. If I was to make a suggestion, I'd bring Stream to level 5 or 6, then level it if needed, and bring Chromatic to level 2 or 3. More isn't really needed.

    I almost never ever use Chromatic. 99% of the time if there is an aoe, you will be using BB. If not, there is a reason you're not, and you can easily heal everyone with just Ironhearts.

    As for Stream, if you plan on getting higher in levels this is an absolute must to max if you want to do anything on your own. Belial and fb99 basically require this skill, unless you have two high level clerics spamming ironheart. I don't know about your situation, but generally it's impossible to find clerics for anything.

    I rushed maxed Stream Of Rejuvination, and left Wellspring at level 6 (maxed it at the 80's though). I rarely use IHB, just Stream. I see no point, in my party(s) by the time the tanks just about to tick, Stream hits him and keeps him alive easily long enough to cast another one. That said, X5 means you have a growing mound of SP.
    Chromatic... meh. Level 3 for me (maxed it later though) was easily enough. I only ever used it in group PK or during tricky bosses (just so I could Accumulate enough Sparks to cast BB)
    I managed to hit level 104 on a X5 rates server!
