    It's not just 3 mystics, you're in a full squad so not really impressive for doing 10 min to be honest.

    Yea, it's doable. You just shouldn't take one of those less than 5k hp casters because they'll be perma wiped without BB. lol

    And why would you gimp the squads DD just to save someones undergeared butt? b:surrender

    You would pretty much need 2 mystics with level 11 sally out with the cooldown on that skill.

    It protects the whole squad so the other mystics can focus less on healing. That way they can compensate a bit by DDing more, I guess.

    I think what Xainou means is that Warp Shield is not effective enough for one Mystic to use it to protect the whole squad on a Casters run, it only absorbs 600 damage so after every AoE hit it would be gone, that is when the second Mystic using level 11 Salvation would use Warp Shield to protect the squad from another hit while the cooldown is running on the first Mystic's Salvation. That is assuming the 2 Mystics actually talk also.

    By doing this though you are missing out on a lot of damage which would be dealt by Mistress so really it isn't worth it.

    Yea, Melvin got it right. The cooldown on warp shield is there, so it's not spammable. And two mistresses, that's more damage than this low hp caster. (Assuming they don't have TT90 armor but +10 r8 weapon...)

    I was planning to switch to demon from sage. Didnt bother getting any sage skills.

    And yes, clerics are called "eps" and have been for years. Stands for Elf Priest.


    Edit: I still don't understand why some people have hissy fits over old abbreviations. "EA" "EP" "WF" "WB" are all still used and understood by most of the player base.
    I've had people ask me what a WB (werebeast) was before, but you're the 1st I've met that thought calling a cleric "ep" was weird. O.o

    This. I don't use the terms myself, but I don't get why some people really care that much, especially the ones that show they know what it means in their protests.

    How come you didn't pick demon from the start? o.o

    And yes I know the old abbreviations, I did play the MY version briefly but it is just weird D: and it only seems to be LC that use it lol I was just distracted by it. I didn't want to mention the skill bars either lol

    Right... Power leveled nabs usually go demon IJS. I better get the sage books ASAP then.
    I, II and III spark is the most cheesiest skill in PWI and it should be removed or massively nerfed.

    TBH, I'd go demon with mystic if I made one above 89 simply because of the skills but that doesn't mean sage is bad.
    WTB PWI 2008 where people were thinking more about doing good rather than pretending to be.

    I chose sage since I was always added to squads to fill in when no cleric was available. For a secondary healer, sage looked best. After I talked with some mystics in Caster NV (mostly LookMyFace) I realized that once Mekkle hit endgame, she wasn't going to be treated as a fill-in cleric.
    So I postponed working on her skills, played till I hit 101, and decided demon fit better.

    And really the best skillbar/hotkey setup is whatever works for the player :). I hear my cleric's skillbars are absolutely horribad, but they've worked just great for me.b:chuckle

    I could be mistaken but I think thats kind of your answer.

    The Mistresses seem more to me like they were sent to fight the mobs, or the little boss in the case of the last boss, while the Mystics focus on the main boss.

    Even though it looks like they were placed behind, if you look at the damage being done to certain mobs, and the little guy behind the big creature on the last boss - something is damaging them and the Mistresses are the closest thing to them.

    Vicious is the best TW faction on RT right now. They were the best last year. You can bet that in most cases in that squad the gear was not shabby.

    Nice vid. Enjoyed it.
    b:victory

    If I had a critcizm of the project, I would say I think I see cleric buffs on everyone. Ofc, they could be a collection of other buffs that the icons look simular but I dont think so. It would seem more true to its title of "Clericless" if the buffs were not there...ijs.

    I might be blind but they clearly look like to attack the boss.
    Sometime the closest thing don't mean it's the one doing the damage...
    They could attack mobs from anywhere ijs...

    The aoe dealth by the boss is frontal, meaning anything behind the boss does not get hit by aoes. So your pet doesnt die, and doesnt need heals.
