again, for killin random greens/trash mobs. gl breaking even on tranix while getting summoned, or any relevant mob for that matter.

And if you still aren't sure what actual combat healing spells are, let me help you out with that:

Hi I'm making fun of you for having the opinion that having mana gear on a ranger is wasted. That's an idiot thought. It's useful. Even if you don't use the mana on "combat spells" on the class that primarily has utility spells. You can use that mana on things that aren't Tranix, too, and that's surprisingly more common.

Thank you for clarifying your position that rangers don't have SK / Paladin spells.

Did Cecily ever say Flowing Thought was bad, or are you just making a bad faith straw man argument?

If you're prioritizing mana on a ranger, that is an idiot thought. but go ahead keep recasting cotp to make it feel relevant.

Edit: Since you edited:

Thank you for literally describing what I said the mana can be used on.

If you can't see how having a large mana pool is helpful for a ranger in terms of overall gameplay, you're not smart enough to continue interacting with. We're done.

Never said there weren't uses or it's not helpful in certain situations. It just should not be a priority for rangers over other stats. If you are still trying to make a case for ranger greater heal being relevant on solo artist mobs, then we are indeed done interacting.

I already said it was useful for random greens/trash. Feel free to provide more examples other than "things".

I doubt you feel any difference. Short of a monk, and that's solely due to the excellent block sound effect, avoidance only really noticeable when you double dodge incoming 1500s.

Yeah the lack of dodge/parry was basically unnoticable. It didn't really make things any harder than the previous characters I'd levelled.

yeah even the ripost disc on live really doesn't net you much damage at all.

So not surprised that awesome idea didn't pan out. But awesome idea anyway jimjam.
