    Mystic's
    Rapid Growth

    Max at level 85
    Level 10
    Mana 475
    Chan .6 sec
    Cast .8 sec
    Cool 35 sec
    Increase channel time by 20%, also adds 100% additional weapon DMG. Lasts for 8 seconds. Req 30 chi.

    Comparable to:
    Psychic's
    Tide Spirit

    Max at level 86
    Level 10
    Mana 200
    Chan .6 sec
    Cast 1.6 sec
    Cool 60 sec
    Increase weapon DMG by 100% for 15 sec. Incease channeling speed for 6 sec (speed unknown?). Req 2 sparks.

    Comment: I think the Psychic wins here since their skill lasts longer, but keep in mind their skill also cools down longer too. I do not know the casting speed increase for the Psychic as well, but both skills increase weapon DMG by 100%.

    Casting speed increase is effectively removes channeling speed on the psychic, so the skill is more powerful on the psy but the cost is higher. Love the comparisons, hope you get back to updating it.

    Level 10
    Range 26.5m
    Mana 132
    Chan 1 sec
    Cast 1 sec
    Cool 1 sec
    100% weapon DMG, plus 723 additional DMG. Slow 30% for 12 seconds.

    Comparable to:
    Venomancer's
    Venomous Scarab

    Max at level 45
    Level 10
    Range 25.5m
    Mana 68.8
    Chan 1.5 sec
    Cast 1 sec
    Cool 1 sec
    Base magic DMG 100% of weapon, plus 966 additional DMG.

    Cleric's
    Great cyclone

    Max at level 48
    Level 10
    Range 26.5m
    Mana 144
    Chan 1 sec
    Cast 1 sec
    Cool 3 sec
    Base magic DMG of 100% of weapon, plus 1372.6. Slow 40% for 8 seconds.

    Comment: Venos and Clerics DMG's are higher. Veno's chan is longer, and Clerics cooldown is longer. All in all, I think it evens out for the most part, since the Mystic will be able to spam the skill a little faster.

    Lvl 10 skill mystic a little bellow venos and cleric, but let see sage level

    I see a lot of people complaining about the MP drain of a mystic. It's true yes, but put a charm on them (spirt charms are cheap and they don't really need a guardian charm due the their summons, herbs, heals, and self-rez) and they become a one-man-army like no other class can even hope to be.

    Now here's someone who should auctially write a guide on mystics b:victory

    Not really. My mystic is much cheaper on MP and a much better dd than my wiz at same level / same equips. The only time I'm burning a lot of MP is when I'm replacing a Cleric's BB or Solo AoE'ing a BH 100. I very rarely use mp pots or charm on mystic. It's damn near close to a veno on being MP efficient.

    I know Mystics are an all around class but are they really worth having around in a squad? Or are they just a fun when I'm bored class. I have a level 95 one and I feel like I stuck not really doing much but being a second cleric and tossing res around. :/ can they really do high damage or about to tank instances with a pet? Cause I don't fee like they can right now.

    Mystics are useful in squad as another support and DD combo. If you get assigned as the sole healer, it's easier to do both heals and dd than a cleric. A cleric is more narrowed to one or the other. Since mystics have plants and Gaia's blessing, we can just use either one and continue on DDing until the timers run out on those. If someone needs additional healing than that, I just put falling pedals and continue on my way DDing. Mystics are never really constricted to one role, so it keeps the class interesting and fun.

    I get in squads quite easily. Our DD is actually not bad either. Our pets can't really tank at higher instances, but if you're well geared, you can tank it yourself. Just put falling pedals on you and pull. With Lucky Break (crit skill) you can keep aggro with a good aoe.

    Mystics aren't very popular on my server.
    Are they more so on other servers?

    Invigorate is also very useful to a squad.
    But well... no class is no longer mandatory in a full squad for PVE stuff anyway.

    Barbs come pretty close to being required.

    Talking about Toad in FSP ? FSP is easier with a barb (it has been designed on purpose) but it is still doable without a barb (very smoother with one though).
    But except for Toad, do people really search for a barb before going in any instance ?

    Depends on the gear level of the people to be honest.
    I don't need anyone for anything, but not everybody is as well geared as I am.
