[ATTN] Mystics and Raids after LU13

[DarknessScyt]

Hi, with all the changes happening here and there, I just wanted to inquire about our role in raids right now. [<font color="#ff0000">1</font>] What buffs are you currently using in your raids      <i> (no need for Runic Talisman because of the aggro?)</i> [<font color="#ff0000">2</font>] When Mystics are in a group other than the MT's group, what do they do?     <i>(heal and ward MT while buffing Sub Tank? )</i> [<font color="#ff0000">3</font>] What's the mitigation percentage on the wards? 50% of your total mitigation? Our guild has some raids coming up, so I'm asking if anyone has raided in beta or after LU13 if they could supply with some answers please <span>:smileyhappy: And about the second question, I never played in any place other than the MT group (except when we're doing easy targets like King Zalak, AL, Drayek, etc)....so I was wondering what everyone else does when they're in another group </span> Thank you and regards. <div></div>

<DIV>Like others have said, the Runic line is still great, and it shouldn't be a problem if the tank is taunting to get agro.  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Wards should mitigate damage equal to the target's mitigation.  For a well armored tank, that would be 80% (for an even con mob)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Prewarding is out the window now though.  Don't do it unless you have a death wish.  </DIV>

1) Standard concentration buffs, since we have 2 more concentration free now i ran prophecy on the tank and one other (myself at the time, noone else needed it more). 2) We assign who's warding based on the raid layout with other mystics, i buff an offtank if they are in the group, a DPS if not, and straight heal, so far. 3) AFAIK thats equal to the target's mitigation. As far as not warding on the pull, I successfully used a ward pre-pull on my tank on 2 x2 epics and a x3 tonight. Nothing earth shattering, but I figured better to figure it out there then a x4. In a group, I've had no major problems warding prepull. This could be due to the fact that the tanks in question have masters on their taunts, I'm not really sure. <div></div>

My thought on 3 is that our wards don't really have much to do with mitigation as such . Other then the amount of time they are up would be relative to the targets own mitigation-avoidance. ie the higher mitigation and avoidance the lower the damage that the ward is absorbing will be and the more hits it can take.as of LU13 the tank will use his/her mitigation then our wards will absorb whatever damage gets through.
