#385, "RE: Bond & Invokers"


          

Seems like lesser shields should pass through the bond so that they don't affect healing rates for those bonded with an invoked. Something I ran into as Noellia (a bard) was that an invoker seemed like it should have been the strongest bondmate for her (dam redux plus more damage ftw) but because it nerfed healing, it was actually a very poor choice. Better to bond with someone else and just get the invoker to cast the shields on you, as you get basically the same benefit as being bonded with the invoker and you get whatever your bond mate gives.

Even pushing them through the bond won't change the fact that they nerf healing. If you don't know the spell, it will nerf your healing.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

#387, "I was under the impression cabal powers were different...."

Such that dam redux originating from cabal powers didn't nerf healing. Not that I'm saying they need it, but shouldn't say, stone skin from bonding with a shifter count as dam redux through a cabal power?

Also, what's with this stuff posting on like page 5?
