I agree fully except not everyone had the same experiences. You can be as nice as you want to be and still run into that one cleric that just refuses to realize that you aren't their extra mana pool and they just have to learn to be more efficient, some raid leaders are the same. The problem isn't the ability,I played with a cleric alot and she was almost never even at 50% because I kept her twitched when the spell refreshed, but, she was also smart on how to play and it was indeed my choice. The problem is the community as a whole doesn't respect it and the ability causes more headache than it's worth. When you have to look around for the very few guilds that actually know your value as more than a battery, you're in trouble. As a EQ1 Necro, there was no greater headache. I like the ability,especially in EQ1 with our insane mana regen and other gifts granted through AA's that made us extremely efficient as well, what I don't like is the abuse that comes with it. It's not the ability, it's the people and I got my fill of that fight years ago. I posted it before but I'll say it again,I actually find sorc's getting twitch humorous and ironic. Sort of a cosmic payback for all the times wizzies had the audacity to ask, like my casting was somehow less important than theirs. There was no greater indignity and I can't deny smiling at every sorc complaint I see on the issue.That being said, no one deserves the battery treatment and I hope it's something they either modify or replace so that it's not the curse it's become. Some way to share mana regen might be nice, just nothing that involves actively doing it to the exclusion of your primary role and fun. Sharing my regen as a necro would have been far preferable to being stuck twitching every ~6 seconds and having to watch mana like a hawk just for the clerics sake.
