couple of questions

[Treve]

<OL> <LI>provoking swarm...is there no upgrade to this spell?...i've never seen one on a broker...is it still used at higher lvls?</LI> <LI>cures...i'm sure my UI is somehow messed up...in the group windiw, i see what cures i need to apply to a group member, but i don't see the cures i need to apply to myself...sure, i can examine the spell that was placed on me, but isn't there the same indication for me too?</LI> <LI>i think i read in another thread that all the heals that are represented with a leaf icon don't stack...true?..if true, is there any point to keeping them on the toolbar if they are inferior? is that also true for all the spells with the same icons?</LI> <LI>are both elemental amending and mossy balm replaced by verdant sigh?</LI> <LI>is snare worth keeping on the toolbar? grasping roots (or w/e at different levels) casts it anyway...is there a time when you would cast snare separately?</LI></OL>

I have not seen a upgrade to this spell. </span><span>At least </span><span>Up to level 50 there are no upgrades .  I use it as a low power spell to complete HO's while soloing. 2. I have the same problem. I have to look at my buff bar and see if there are any dots or debuffs on myself. This can get very hard to do if you are in a  full group and have a bunch of buffs... I wonder if there is a UI mod that helps with this. 3. The straight-up regens don't stack with lower level ones. You may want to get them off the hotbar, unless someone here comes up with a good reason to keep them. 4. I am ot sure of the power requirements for Verdant Sigh, but its the only group cure we get for elemental and trauma, so I guess it would be a replacement if you want to free space in the hotbar and dont care about the aggro generation and power requirements of casting a group cure for a single target. 5. I only had one situation where i needed to cast the snare separately. I was pulling in the group, and I didn't want to root the mob first...</span><div></div>
