Some questions from a new warden

[Goodwill]

<p>Hi</p><p> I'm a new Warden level 29. Yesterday I went on my first real grouping.</p><p> I really love the Warden, but I do have a few questions.</p><p>Don't we get a direct heal? no ward or anything - I just want a heal, 1 sec cast, that heals a lot <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> ? (I know we have one, but thats 5 min recast)</p><p>When I cast my wolf speed buff on others, than myself, do it then work on 2 people? could it work on all grp members, if I just recast it on all, one at a time?</p><p>Do I ever get a AE dmg spell?</p><p>Do I get more dmg spells, than I have now. I have a fire spell, and 2 dmg over time spells, 2 cold ones If I remeber correct.</p><p>Regards</p><p>Kakis</p>

We don't get any direct heals that heal a lot besides the 2 emergency heals. And they are just that, emergency heals. One single target, one group, both on a 15 minute timer. Learn to work the other heals. Don't wait 'till the last moment to cast them, forget about the damage for a sec and perform the healing duties they picked you up for :pA bit later in the game you get a heat/cold damage ward that's also a resist buff. But again, it's on a hefty timer, once per fight kind of deal.The Spirit of the Wolf, you can cast that on as many people you like. All your group members, passers by, you see a player character, you can cast it on them and they'll be happy for 45 minutes. There's no concentration slot used when you do. I'm amazed nobody has asked you for a SOW yet. I get that all the time.You don't get an AE damage spell, but you do get an encounter nuke. That one hits all targets in the encounter for quite a bit of damage. Should you go melee with your warden (check the abilities in the Warden sub-tree), you get an AE attack.

Your heals are small with a direct component and a heal over time component -  each individual one doesn't do the big heal you want, but they all 'stack', meaning if you play them right, you can be putting out a nice chunk of healing and STILL have your timers available when other healers' are refreshing.SoW is as you see it. Individual cast - always has been, prolly always will be <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  .   So best thing is to cast it on yourself, then your group.  That way  you can see when the buff is winding down and when a recast will be called for - so you can be ahead of it running out (no pun intended).
