Cure Nearsight - Phoenix Freeshard

Would it be possible to reconsider having Mastery of the art and your dex affect the cast time on this spell? Its not possible to 40 mend and also have quality PAC spec.

All you need is 20 in mending to get cure nearsight. The 40 in mending is also cure nearsight but it is the 3.5s cast one. The 20 mending cure nearsight is a 6s cast time.

Wow I'm really good at reading. Forget everything about the above.

I think having cure nearsight at a set cast time is great how it is. I do not think it needs to be changed.

When do Druids and Clerics get their slow and fast Cure nearsight?

Sat 20 Oct 2018 2:20 AM by Aincrad

Druids - slow Cure NS (fixed 6.0s cast) at 20 Regrowth - fast Cure NS (fixed 3.5s cast) at 40 Regrowth

Clerics - slow Cure NS (fixed 6.0s cast) at 20 Rejuvination - fast Cure NS (fixed 3.5s cast) at 40 Rejuvination

Healers - slow Cure NS (fixed 6.0s cast) at 20 Mending - fast Cure NS (fixed 3.5s cast) at 40 Mending

Is it common for clerics and Druids to spec 40 mend?
Its not common for a healer to spec 40 mend. There are 3 common healer specs...
Pac
Aug
Tri

none have 40 mend. There are some 40 mend healers out there but they are premades

I'm surprised that more clerics don't go high rejuv. I'm 43 rejuv and I wouldn't lower it by a single point! Having the fast cure NS, 100% rez, 100% single-target insta-heal and maximum major heal are just too good to give up. Of course, my buffs and casted resistances are a little sub-par, but most people mostly compensate with pots anyway. Naturally, that high in rejuv and you're playing almost purely support, which suits me just fine but I'm probably in the minority of cleric players.

It may be more common with druids and/or clerics, but definitely not common with Healer. I do not think any healer would ever go high into rejuv

There are no plans to change the cure to not be a fixed cast.

I dont see the problem with a 36 40 aug healer spec.

Tue 23 Oct 2018 12:43 PM by Druth

I would also have imagined healer spec to be 40 mend and 36 aug or pac.

Always 38 pac for aoe instant stun. Best way to juke gp.

I thought the most common aug spec would be 36 aug 40 mend, you get yellow resists (except one), good celerity and plenty of mend. I think most pacs go 44 pac 31 mend but I don't see why 36/40 couldn't work there too. You lose red aoe mezz and insta aoe stun but gain alot more heal utility.

Atleast one healer in group should have no problem going 40 mend, especially if you're running 3 of them.

I would go 36 pac, personally. The added healing and faster cure ns seems better than better aoe CC, that will often get purged/GP/SOS etc...
But not played healer for a few years, so what do I know

i'm 40 rej 36 buff n i'm fine with it, i think that more in rej is a bit too much power per heal but, if you can, change my mind n i respec tonight

Hi Belihal!
I don't want to change your mind: 40r36e is a great and standard healer cleric spec. If it works for you, then keep doing it! For me, 43r32e works better. I like the larger heals and the power efficiency is about the same or slightly higher. The 100% insta-heal is fantastic, too.
Pros:
+ Greater Heal @ 41r (549hp/109pow/5.0eff) vs @ 34r (432hp/86pow/5.0eff)
+ Blessing of the Heavens @ 42r (100% single target insta-heal) vs @ 33r Favor of the Heavens (80% single target insta-heal)
+ Major Refocillation @ 43r (396hp/58pow/6.8eff) vs Major Refection @ 33r (307hp/48pow/6.4eff)
Cons:
- Spirit Resist: 8% instead of 16%
- Body Resist: 8% instead of 16%
- Str/Con: +45 vs. +57
- AF buff: +43 vs. +55
The resistances are the biggest sacrifice IMO, since red buffs are available on i50 gear. YMMV

edit: Also, if you running a dual cleric setup and you are the rejuv gal, the resists will be covered by the enhance gal anyway.
