new spells and soul ores

General Discussion Started Last reply 18 posts
The new spells have been out awhile now and buffers and healers have tested them. So how do you like the new spells using soul ores?
spirit ore ;)
for a PP that is 1 spirit ore / buffround / person. I can live with that :)

spirit ore ;)



Oops yes that's what I meant.
Golems go poof. I love it.
I like it and I hate it. I like that major heal heals for more and costs less.

I however completely hate having to carry around not only shots but spirit ore (which weighs a ton) to use skills I've had for 4 chronicles.
Im ok with Clarity taking an Ore, Im ok with G.Might/G.Shield taking an ore. (Make VR take an ore plz =P)

Im iffy about Major Heal. Thats a spell that can be used very often, way more then 1 per person per 20 mins. Its costing Bishops & EE's alot to be able to use their best Heals.

Erase is fine, something that powerful should cost something.
Turn Undead im not sure of, I dont use it for PvE (Undead Nuking) because it takes alot and doesnt garentee a Lethal Strike, and with the Cast Speed on MoH (A Narturally faster casting Nuke, plus an EE's cast speed) its easier to just use that to kill before you get killed.

Not complaining, just, Meh.
I don't care about the cost of spirit ore I burn on Major Heals. I am more than compensated by being able to spend the extra MP on extra spoils and/or extra mass-stuns. And I always can delevel to compensate for extra XP, too :p
I am puzzled by one thing; the Greater Might/Shield buffs don't seem to overwrite the Might/Shield buffs; both 'sets' still appear on your list of active buffs in top left of the screen. I have not taken the time to see if they actually do stack in the stats tho (too busy killing and spoiling/sweeping.)

Oh, another thing, if weight is a problem, have your party's dwarf or orc carry the spirit ores. And... since I'm getting the buff, I supply the ore (unless I forget.)
I dont really have a probelm with the weight, my EE is normally at 35% or lower, if I need it, I have Decrease Weight anyway ^^.
Greater Might stacks with Might yes.

You on other hand can't have Greater Might & Greater Shield at teh same time.
Yes its very meh imo. Just makes healing a bit more of a pain in the a-- and not many people want to bother healing in the first place.
Weight of spirit ore has been decreased.

Weight of spirit ore has been decreased.



not yet about it's about to be shortly.

by what 50% or something like that.
Yes, its part of the next big patch and yes, its half.
i dont mind it, i group w/ a necro when i play, no need for major heal, just recharge :)

only time i use major heal is when having fun in arena :cool:
this game need a adena sink after all. Or else super inflation.
your avatar is frighting!
