I am in the process of remaking a new main, and i decided on making a healer class. But with the three healer class (human, elf, dark elf) i was wondering which one would be best for it. I know that when u awake the only thing that matters is the racial skills. But i am looking at it and i narrow it down to elf or dark elf, for elf to have more casting speed, while dark elf has more m.atk and have that skill that makes u not targetable. Which one would u guys suggest to go.
Keep in mind i am also going to be dual classing a feoh/wyvn in the near future.
Depends if you're more a PvE or PvP player. For PvP the D.Elves racial skill makes you a god for 5 seconds. And I thought that casting speed wasn't so important anymore, but I'll leave the last word to the experts.
Well the healer switches rolls when they awaken...
I Awoked from human cardinal into aeore. And I gota tell ya the switch was drastic. I went from a class that basically healed into; a party regener, healer, and debuffer (mark of lumi).
I am disapointed in that we don't have any raciual traits after we awaken, but if I was to do it over again; I would condiser Elf (EE) as my choice, because of your cast speed. Also, the change from recharging to Aeore would be less difficult to switch to, cause you'd be more attuned to it.
And parties from 60-85 always want a recharger/clarity.
But honestly I don't care much for the armor modeling for elf/de on the mages. Most their armor is pretty bad. (sorry big boobs doesn't do it for me);)
The thing about Being human is that it was harder to get a party, I had to almost always make my own. It's pretty sad tho that even after you hit 76 and get buffs like empower, and clarity, PPL still don't know that cardinal can do the same things as SE/EE could do for the last 26 lvls.:mad:
But idk how much of a bonus lesser celetial would make as a race skill.
At 85 I already got celestrial shield for 10s, and 10s crystal regen(makes u immune to dmg; while regening HP/mp (tho the mp regen is crap at lvl 85)). and balance life is instant cast ballance + HoT.
Not to mention that you also get a party celest at later lvls. And your push back is really nice if some annoying melee gets in your face.
Cancel ...all debuffs and making you not able to be targeted for 5 seconds is a skill that has 15 minutes reuse.
You are GoD if you can heavily damage the enemy in those 5 seconds...Othel/Feoh I would say...As a healer you won't be benefited much..(compared to classes mentioned).
Also Vampiric Racial is 1%
Bishop/Cardi here.
i cant agree with u Raina :]
bishop have easier way to farm than ee/se. they have real huge problem to find pt. they r not healers. they r 1/2heal 1/2 buffer = crap.
for me there was no problem to find pt. after 76 - ok i wont find even 1 pt (excluding kama/raids) but u have PI quest that will give u 15kk exp 16kk sp every 10min (1 round + exp from 30 mobs) so u dont need pt. 81-85 -> 40h for me on PI so go there xD.
Humans FTW :) u have celestial shield on 76? 77? 78? dont remember xD and after 85 u have new one so...

I honestly don't care if you agree with me or not. Facts are Facts!
40-75 no one wants a bishop, if they want a healer it's a EE or SE, because they have recharge and bishop doesn't! Bishop also lack prime buffs like empower, and clarity. Even a ES is wanted over a bishop for mage parties if no SE can be found, because their summon can drop Empower, so they take a EE, and ES, and still come out on top.
All 3 abilities you can pick up at 76, thanks for holy promimanders. However for 40-75 it's not the same. I made my own party 88% of the time for 60-76. and even 78-85! Now that i'm awakend I no longer need to make my own party, infact I'm asked to join parties most of the time!
Sorry but PI is a KS zone, if you could manage to find a spot in lost nest where you can stay close to the npc, with out having to run half way accross the zone for mobs, so you aren't KSed the intire time you XP there: Then yeah it's good XP. I wasn't saying it wasn't good XP...The problem is that any SpS/SH, or another healer like EE can come in KS your mobs and u get A$.$'d out on the XP. Because you end up getting 30%-50% less XP then if you solo'd! Quest reward or not, it's cumulative XP that matters, not what u can do with the quest.
Lets say from 80 to 81 it takes 60 quest to level. Lets say you add the XP from mobs those 60 quest would then drop from 60 to 45/50 if not KS'd. However if KSed those 60 quest u'd need would then take even longer because you don't kill all the mobs, and you get halfed XP because of ppl killing your mobs! (hyperthically) Thuse it takes even longer to lvl on PI, cause you can't find a spot to kill mobs, and you get half XP 80% of the time.
Better to form your own party, and go kill mobs in swamp/alter for 300-500k a mob, then the 89k or less u'd get from each mob on PI. 2m XP quest or not, I assure you you come out on top in alter!

PI is a place full of complete a*holes yes, I hate the attitudes of people there, but the XP can't be beat at that level. It's 15m XP/16m SP per hand in and even at the slowest having to run far it takes 10-15 minutes per hand in, usually 5-7 minutes is average. It's 80% about the quest and 20% the XP from the dinos.
To get the same XP from the swamps you'd need to kill like 30-40 mobs in 7 minutes and that's not including Dinos and is assuming you have endless Vit and Mentor buffs. Duo in swamp is 700k/kill with mentor+vit, which is 22 mobs to make the same XP as PI.

when I was 84, I made 35% in < an hour and half in alter. With archer party. after 2 and half hours I was up to 55%. So u can't tell me alter is slow! It would of taken me 3 hours or more to do that on PI, I play Shilen, not chonos, or naia where there is probably far less NOOBS Ksing everyone.

On PI I make on average 30%/hr on all toons I've levelled there to 85. Swamps was 25% an hour leeching BD off a summoner. Maybe a full party gets better XP with the XP boost stuff, dunno. I didn't say altar was slow in the slightest, just that PI is awesome xp and to my experience equal or better than altar.
Both PI and Altar are full of idiots on chronos, the scrubby unawakened archer groups in swamps/alter really piss me off, no one has respect for "spots" anymore and just runs round killing mobs everywhere. It's a game full of ****** now.

Im Human also, you have Holy Pomaders, I dint find any probleam with partys because "Im cardinal". FOG allways want cardinals, DOE allways want cardinals and from 60 to 75 you dont need any party.

I kill steal back to spite them and if they decide to flag I went and killed them. Yes this server is full of *******es, but they usually don't realize they're outmatched by much much more experienced players. ;)

There are places and class combinations that can duo faster XP than that.
And Dino is indeed packed full of nukers and summoners (especially ES AOEing everything they can see). Personally, I prefer to avoid them.
