It's not a Conjurer's job to keep you alive

e30G · 01-20-2009, 01:39 PM

Really, it isn't. It's solely your responsibility to keep yourself alive. Our job is to give you an opportunity to stay alive! Our spells have a cooldown and can buy you time, so MOVE! If you're getting pummeled, get out of there, move yourself out of the way. Go to a safer area, seek cover and recover that way we can conserve our revives and you can live to kill even more enemies. Please help yourself so we can do our jobs better.

This post isn't in no way directed at anyone specifically. It's more of a reaction to my observations on how some people attack standing still up front while they get hit and do nothing but wait for heals.

Cheers!

You can always count on Galynn for proper Conjurer information

most of conjurers on horus/syrtis abuse this "we have cd too, you know?" reason to justify themselves for not healing at all/rarely and simply being a bad conjurer.

Well it's pretty easy to see the difference between someone just casting auras, and a real conjuror. well at least when i'm waiting around in camo I can see it ^^.

example of syrtis conjurer:

everyone is dieing and then you see him start casting stuff, and while everyone expects heals a zarkit pops up, then he starts another cast, no heals again... only bless on everyone.

Conserving heal: Oh Shut up, you play as a conjurer. YOU HEAL! IT'S YOUR DUTY.

I suck as a conjurer...but i can say that when I do conjurer...I'm never idle and I don't attack.....I'm busy with DI, regen ally, heals. mana comun., synergy bond...rinse and repeat. I keep other conjurers DId and regen ally on those about to charge. I also move in with the charge so I can heal warriors and others needing it. Here's my complaint...

PUT THE DAMN ZARKIT AWAY!!! - OR - Train such that you have enough of a zarkit to lvl but more heals and ally assisted skills than not. If you drag your dumb zarkit to a fight you can't:

1. Effectively keep an eye on your team mates...your too worried about your zarkit attacking
2. Your giving warlocks a nice friggin' toy.

Watch conjurers like Mehgan, Niola, Sabrina, Hegrulun from alsius.....and always...always revive conjurers first.

(Biting) The phrase "conserving heal" doesn't even appear in that quote.

It seems that some people have a warped idea about conjurers that the conjurer exists only to save their lives and that if they die it's because the conjurer wasn't doing his job. On the contrary, I have seen three conjurers healing someone like mad before and they STILL die because they just sit there to get shot at. We have limitations and often can't save your life. I try to tell my group if I am on cd or low on mana, so they know not to go running into the line of fire quite so recklessly. At the end of the day, though, there's only so much a conjurer can do. Staying alive is ultimately your responsibility.

We also seem to have the idea that a conjurer isn't made to fight. If that was true, why would we have the zarkit and bloodrinker spells, just to name two? Yeah they make grinding easier, but they also smash some rear ends if used properly in wz. There is a lot of offensive power in the conj that I don't think has been tapped into. So if you see me running around with a zarkit, it's because I'm experimenting at making a warjurer. I sometimes like to get in my shots too.
