Trance/Sleep??

what is the difference between these two skills? trance costs less mp but according to its description does the same thing? :p

trance is much much faster to cast bu doesnt' last as long.

oh cool. I like the sound of trance :D
is its probability of landing the same as sleep?

Trance is what sleep use to be ;)

Trance casts fast, lands better, costs less, but doesn't last very long. Sleep takes all day to cast, but lasts longer. Basically useless now IMO.

trance is pretty good in pvp.

I especially like the text that comes with it when used on you.
ZZZZzzzzzz

Sleep takes all day to cast, but lasts longer. Basically useless now IMO.

lol i know i think it is a long wait for sleep to cast. I'm not sure if it would be useless if cast may be on passive mobs that are grouped.
because its longer it means more time to deal with the ones that agro you.
Why would it still be there on our skill list?

Question:
So if I used trance on a mob, then use sleep, will sleep over-ride trance ?

No, trance and sleep are the same effect. If one is applied others fail.

Sleep still has uses, I can still use it to sleep mobs that have agroed me so I can run away. Trance works for this too but sometimes I need more time. I have had maybe 1 sleep cast be interrupted doing this due to the extended casting time.

One thing that makes me a little disapointed is when a mob is FoD roots you and keeps draining you. If you trance it, the trance wears off before the root. Trance is about half the length of sleep/root time.

However you can time trance first in oly, wait a couple seconds then use sleep. Sleep will land just as trance fades if done properly.

In interlude the extra 15seconds on sleep means you can use invocation with minimal risk.

Because ncsoft has to leave classes like nukers with the gimp version of sleep while giving healers the old version of sleep.
