Lay on Hand(spell line) Vs. Mend

lostothear · 06-21-2005, 05:02 PM

I don't like that mend (because it is percentage based) can heal for more then my highest LOH spell ..

Personally I think LOH spell lines should be the number 1 most powerfull single target heal (they take 30 min for recast !!)

Plus ... it also sucks that the highest version of LOH can't even be upgraded !!!! It's app 1... but can not be upgraded by any Alche... its not in their recipee books !!!!

(the above has been /bugged by many many Paladin's and many many alche's -- so they should know about this problem by now..)

Some hard data would be nice if we intend to have a debate on the relative merrits of these abilities. Enter Gage stage right. :p

There's a thread about this in the spells/abilities/combat forum that Moorgard has replied to, I'd suggest putting your input in there since he is probably watching that thread... http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=spellart&message.id=53396

Personally, I would just be happy if Pious Touch (or whatever the Level 50 LoH is) could be upgraded past Apprentice I :p Or maybe I am just missing something.

Ours is percentage based, so say on a mage it'll heal for like 300 and on a buffed guardian it'll heal for almost 2k.

It varies though, and I'm pretty sure the descriptions are wrong.

Also, through some monk testing (as mentioned in our bug thread) I'm not too sure the percentages scale with upgrading anyway.
