Can't Heal Allies Under Sanctuary

Mana Communion is usually loved by all your allies and gives them a much needed boost, especially archers.

Using those 3 is effective strategy and teamwork, it's also great for RPs.. is that "noobish"??

I would have to say that its noobish if a persons setup are built around those 3 spells yes. But using them in a smart way is in no way noobish but if someone are one of those conjurers in a fort fight that doesn't do anything except casting mana com and greater healing then yes i would call that noobish because that person doesn't help his side at all, he just wants rp which i think is lame

Yes, imo a spell is overpowered when it can't be countered, if i go into sanctuary i can't be killed, if i then cast a AoE spell like mana com the enemy can't prevent me from casting it which makes casting those spells in sanctuary overpowered.

Oh... you meant pretty much exclusively using those 3!! (I thought you just meant any conjurers who use those spells a lot... because I use those in practically every fort battle at some point.)

In that case... yes, I'd agree... and it'd be lazy conjuring that only uses a part of the conjurer's capabilities.

When it does, you cast your big healing spell. 5 seconds later, the enemy comes through, sees the conjurer, and attacks. You cast Sanctuary, now have some peace to do some miscellaneous healing... only to find that your two most powerful spells have just been canceled.

IMHO, this makes conjurers far less useful. We already have pathetically wimpy attacks, we're slow, our summons are useless in war, and we have no defenses against warlocks. All we have going for us is the ability to heal and buff others, and having Sanctuary cancel the two most powerful conjurer spells just kills it. If it stays this way, I probably won't play conjurer anymore. who wants to play a class that has no strengths to balance their weaknesses?

i think you are overreacting a bit.
Generations of conjuners played without being able to cast the AoE under sanctuary.
Sanctuary is still very powerfull with being able to cast heal and resurrect.

i can only agree with Ghost and ADW.
I feels more that they fixed a bug to me

Protecting the field medic from being beaten down by mad barbarians sounds more like the job for a knight or two than some pathetic "I win"-button of which there are too many in this game.
