Shadow Mend

Post by Apimius » Tue Aug 02, 2022 8:13 pm

Hello,

i think shadow mends cast time is too long, it heals for less than a flash heal and has a 3 second cast time which makes it pretty much unuseable. It is more effective to go out of shadow form and use flash healing instead. My suggestion is make it a 2 second cast. The 15 second cd is fine and should stay to keep it balanced for pvp.

Thanks for reading and considering!

I swear Shadow Mend is meant to be a 2 second cast time?

Indeed it should be 2 seconds, more than flash, but atleast useful in pvp then

+1 agree, a 3 second cast for whats less than 1.5gcd + 1.5s cast flash heal is just silly
2 seconds would be better yet still interruptible by attentive opponents

Agree. Cast time is making this skill useless in PVP. wary_turtle_head

Seeing as it is more optimal to swap out of form to heal and swap back in, I agree with this suggestion and will be bringing it up with the team in the near future.

Anything would be better than never-using skill :)
Pay 700 mana, 3sec cast, 30sec CD for 800 health, when you have 800 spell power is totally terrible neutral_turtle_head

Also please do something to mind flay, it scaling of spell power as 1.5sec spell when has 3sec cast. Maybe add more to mana gains of it, always oom. Please ( viewtopic.php?t=10791 )
Play for fun, enjoy the game!
Peace

Nah that's boring. It's cool flavor ability for SP and can be slightly useful in solo world stuff.

Just buff it slightly. Obviously not as good as a holy priest ability, but at least make it better than just taking the global cooldowns to exit shadowform - cast flash heal - enter shadowform. Right now Shadowmend is total dead content.
