Hey anyone can help me. I have 39 Inqui but it sucks as a healer. Casting time is very bad and reactive heals are OMG. I wish to know that at this lvl how can i get my heals better and also my casting speed.

You can get casting speed by putting points in the AA line furthest to the right in the cleric tree (formerly the int line).

Any more suggestion.

At low lvl the Inq healing is lack luster.  Honestly the whole time I was leveling my inq I felt his heals where slow and underwhelming.  However at level 90 with 247AA my inq is a beast on the meter.  I often come in right under the MT healers on most all raid encounters and the inquisitor is one of the few priest classes that can solo heal a group during HM raid encounters.  Just try and stick it out as long as you can.  Once you pick up the healing stance in the shadows tree and your Emyth you will see a huge change.

honestly i had no trouble low level once i seen how it was played. i mean if you dont see it than of course you will struggle. any class will be like that.

inquistor isnt just some button mash fest that you can go all spam crazy on. even if you take the INT line and/or invest in other ability cast/spell cast speed stuff it wont help if you dont grasp the fact that with an inquistor you must learn to anticipate far more than any other healer. This may sound a bit over used but think three steps ahead if you want to win. If you cant then start practicing or switch to a different heal class and see if you like them better.

Hmmmm, i'm not sure I agree that inquisitor is much different from other healers in terms of 'anticipating'. I have only played inquis, templar and defiler but they seem pretty similar in that if you are waiting until your group get hurt before you start healing, then it's already too late.

in that i agree and that kinda thing is usually what hurts people new to healing. the notion that you heal as they are hurt rather than also provide preventative solutions. however, what i also said was (and it goes for temp as well) inq requires MORE anticipating. this due in part because of the slower casts times. true the inq and temp can deal out some pretty impressive heals but the cost to it is increased cast times making it a situation where you must learn to cast your heal before they take the hit so that when the hit lands they dont end up dead because your cast time allows the enemy to get in more hits.

So u guys mean to say that pre casting before entering into combact and always let our reactive heals is the trick ? I have a 90 Warden and its very easy playing him. I am trying to get the complete BG Armor/Jewels/Weapon set and will start grabbing AA. So will u guys give me an idea of AA setup for PVP based. Just give me an idea for first 100 AA.

somewhat. not necessarily just precasting before combat but i certainly do precast before combat starts. usually i time the cast to go off right after the initial hit if i precast my group reactive before combat.

INT line base for the cast speed. also uses punishments for extra heals. if you do alot of pvp and bg i would not suggest this one until you get more AA for steadfast. I used it and regreted it horribly. steadfast is really necessary and when you take it off you really notice how much you miss it. this would be good for instances though imo. since you are probably going to be behind a tank.

http://www.beetny.com/eq2aa/?b01d14...20u5@45@25@1555

dual lines in cleric tree both STR and INT. no punishments line. probably a better option for BG/PVP though if i were given only 100AA i would go with this.  even for instances this would still be a stable spec imo.

there you go. 100AA spent for ideas on how to use them.  Opinions?

Meh.. all of you!

Inquis is a DPS class, with an amazing ability to be able to heal with myth/stance and heal gear.

Think of it like that and you will win SMILEY If you think of it only as a healer, make a templar and everyone will be much happier with you.

meh to you too. i play an inquis as my main. inquis is not a dps class i say. just because a class is more soloable and more melee based than its counterpart does not make it a dps class.

Well that was supposed to be slightly humorous.. Anyway, originally the inquis was supposed to be more dps oriented and only when  TSO came out did it actually become viable as a decent healer.  I played one since the beginning.    The original myth was not even heal oriented.

Still a good healer with good dps buffs/debuffs for a melee group.. SMILEY
