    IH twice, then attack until it wears off, then two more, then attack again. b:chuckle

    If it's particularly hard and you're losing a lot of HP, IH and Cyclone fit nicely into each others' cooldowns.

    if the mob is melee: Great Cyclone -> IH -> Plume Shot -> Great Cyclone -> Plume Shot -> Great Cyclone -> etc, etc.

    If the mob is ranged: Plume Shot -> IH -> Great Cyclone -> Plume Shot -> Great Cyclone -> Plume Shot -> etc, etc.

    And sometimes I don't heal at all until I kill the mob.

    for the most part i can kill about 2 mobs before my health is low and im a support cleric
    so i just wait till after they are dead to wellspring myself
    if i want to play it safe i will wellspring at half health
    if im planning on killing something that will take a while i will cast 1 IH before attacking

    Solo macros are:

    1 - IH>Cyclone>wield thunder>cyclone>repeat
    used for most bosses

    2 - IH>plume>cyclone>plume>repeat
    used on metal bosses or bosses with a chance to interupt, as the macro cannot be disrupted unless I get stunned/slept/sealed

    3 - cyclone>plume>repeat
    general grind

    4 - cyclone>WT>cyclone>plume>repeat
    also general grind

    I modify the boss macros if I am getting hit to hard by adding extra IHs in between attacks, or putting purify after IH for DoT bosses.
    If you need to tell someone you how pro you are, you are not pro. Your reputation and skills should speak for you.

    Favorite opening line when entering a squad:
    "Hi. So, am I the tank?"

    BMs are probably my favorite dds around. They aren't squishy, usually respect and protect the cleric, and in spite of the seemingly constant suicidal impulses, don't get me killed very often.

    well i cast cyclone then wield thunder, by that time a mob is close to me so i use IH once or twice depending on the dmg i take,, i use this for mag mobs. for phys mobs i use cyclone then plume then plume shell and maybe IH if needed. wield thunder is a good opening attack for the dmg it does but cyclone reduces speed. some mobs dont even get to me to attack before i take em out and they r normal mobs not weak or sacreficial ones.b:victorycleric powerb:victory

    Before Thunder: IH x2 and then alternate Cyclone and Plume Shot until the mob was dead. Usually didn't need more heals than that. Sometimes I did have to put on an extra IH during battle or use Wellspring.

    Once I got Weild Thunder I would lead with that skill, follow with Cyclone and then Plume Shot then alternate back between that and Cyclone. I could usually get through killing one or two mobs before needing a heal.

    Honestly, it really depends on 1. how hard the mobs hit me, 2. how hard I hit them. Being semi-vit arcane build and far more squishy than my 75 AA pure mag wizard (still getting TT90 gear for myself and my veno, as well as all the damn mats for extra gear for my veno to switch to HA) if the mobs hit hard I will IH myself 2 or 3 times before attacking, and things my level die before the effect wears off. Rince, repeat. Mostly, however, can get away with self-mag shell, IH, 3-5 hits, mob is dead, move on.
