Hi! Very new to this game, well infact, I haven't really played it yet.

My choice is between a Psychic or Mystic.

So my question is then, how are psychics when it comes to PvE? Are they needed? Do we get rejected or can we find a spot in groups? And what is our main role in a group?
As I only read so far that they are "the best"/amazing in pvp.

From what i understood, they are quite similar to mystics when it comes to the role in pve. DD/debuffer/heal

Thanks in advance

    Mystic and Psy are nothing alike from my experience, Psy is just pure DD with a support AOE heal which you can't rely on in a situation to keep a tank healed. I don't really think they can be called a debuffer either. I would go with a psy over a mystic, psy are awesome in both pve and pvp and the multiple aoes are good for FF at 80+

    Psychics in PvE are generally seen as a high-hitting DD class. Not 100% necessary (no class is a hundred percent necessary in a squad), but pretty great in squads for the AoEs. Sometimes you can't find a spot because a constant-AoE is preferred but if you use your skills right you can have consistent chains of them going on. Main role in a group is a DD. Potential for being a pro puller and tank as well. Some nice debuffs and self-buffs.

    Bubble of Life is our only heal persay, but Empowered Vigor increases healing abilities in general. Minute and a half buff. Usually just toss it on the cleric or yourself since you're not EXPECTED to heal. You're expected to deal damage. Psy > Mystic. Not from the heals perspective obviously, though.

    PvP, Psychics have a lot of advantages. If you're a well-bred psychic you can destroy anything.
    A..ny...thing.

    Really it depends on your play style as to whether to go Mystic or Psy. Both have their pros and cons.
