Since when do Shadow Knights only lifetap for 45 damage.

its a big deal when a paladin can heal 20 times, i just remember it being really bad on vztz. was just curious as to what the deal was

If their mana pool is wrong and it cant be fixed then make their spells cost 5% more then they should to compensate for their innaccurate manapool

Nothing to see here, move along.

yeah on live didnt seem like a paladin could cast a heal more than 3 or 4 times without going out of mana, will be pretty lame if they have the same manapool as priest classes. the difference between being able to heal 3 - 4 times vs 15 is a huge difference and will completely reposition them in terms of pvp strength.

this issue will be even worse with the expansions as they get stronger heals.

We have code in place to do this, but I don't think its actually active.

Did you take into account that the solution as it is currently stated nerfs +mana items for hybrids?

Yeah the problem with this approach is when you are low on mana, the client lets you start casting the heal even if you don't have the mana for it. Then it tells you you got interupted or something, which sucks. Also, it means you have to meditate a lot more.

I heard a good solution awhile back where you nerf the mana pool with an invisible charm slot that's always equipped on hybrids. Not sure how hard that would be to code.
