Yeah, had a ton of fun tonight, especially with our mender kazonn. And Lukas blowing up and going down with the ship was a highlight of the night, too bad you missed that one.

I don't know how you squishies can stand holding on to those wimpy wands all the time. I tried to stab a bugbear with it and it wound up going off in his ass, healing him.

Unless it's a resurrection wand and you shove it up the ass of a vampire or a mummy you'll never have fun with them Crispy, you're doing it wrong.

The bugbears at Irestone were not bad. Those damned casters in Proof is in the Poison and the stinking trogs in Freshen the Air in the room with the boxes needed get hit with a massive retributive strike or a Fireball Nuclear Winter.

Ye, had quite a good time last night, even if I ran only one dungeon, while being freaking braindead. I should be on later today.

Proof is in the poison woulda been a lot easier if i went with the sorc and got protection from elements, alas neither of those 2 things happened, so it was quite a ride. Was still fun tho.

To be fair you can just download it through Steam, majority of content at least because there's patches and I imagine that version isn't up to date, and then launch it through game's own launcher. But then you won't get those sweet hours played and everyone knows that's why people play on Steam, right?

Speaking of which, how's the guild's class composition? What do you need that's not premium? Maybe add player's associated classes to OP list for easy reference or something.

Real question is if you like support playstyle. Many cant stomach it.

I'm finding hard enough to heal with all you crazy spell casters running around. So I'm having a good time doing it for the first time.

- if shit hits the fan just make a judgement. If you cant keep up with heals -> give up on certain party members and focus on crucial ones

:salute: Gotcha. Gonna go for full healbot build, but I dunno what I'm doing lol. Need to do more research. But let's keep these nightly runs going.

Go for this build more or less, it doesnt matter if it isnt exactly like this but basic feats like maximize, empower and empower healing are where you will do your huge heal bursts that will deplete your mp, meanwhile you can heal with wands and attack with some spell like abilities granted by enchancements trees.

Another nice thing about DDO in terms of healing, unlike other MMO's, is that all that healing doesn't generate aggro, or "hate" as it's known in this game. So generally as long as someone else is managing the party's hate, such as a tank, or a foolish sorcerer blasting away like there's no tomorrow, you can just stand in the middle of the shitstorm and heal at will.

Once you get good, you can even distract yourself with a little headcracking of your own, but just have to remember that you're generating some hate, or heat, of your own on yourself so don't blow it.

Any veteran of MMO's will tell you that the group healer is often the most appreciated, if not often the most important, member.
