its really funny imo when ppl dont see the damage part of healer..

a normal game for a good healer he does ~20% heal actions 80% damage actions
and still most of healers use like a hm / int weapons ;D

calculate this
healer who does 30dmg avg and 700avg heal on 1000 actions game
= 30*800 = 24k
= 700*200 = 140k

thats normal healer

BUT
lets say this healer takes a EE weapon instead (lets say he had 50hm wep and now he uses 175ee wep all stat poins are in int)
it would make it like avg dmg 300 avg heal 575
= 300*800 = 240k
= 575*200 = 115k

what would serve the cata game more?
and also for ppl who say "then no enough mana"
well when you do dmg you gain exp faster and also the total game killing speed is faster so all of the ppl levels faster


this is just my 2cents ;D

Agreed.Thats why I had Hybrid HM/EE daggers

yy ofc hm+ee would be the best but those weapons are rare thats why i use a normal ee wep as an example

something like this is the best case scenario ofc

Legendary tempered diamond dagger
Level Req: 45
Damage: 109 to 191

+98% Enhanced Effect
+181 Max Life
+475 Max Mana
+9% Experience Gained
+2% Life Steal
+2% Block
+42% Heal Mastery

truth - i was in a awesome game last night, healer was using a 125ee staff with about 500 mana on it i think. He still healed for 600 average and averaged about 140 damage, which isn't bad for a caster statted mage 300 average on a mage with base str is a TON though, thats more than alot of melee chars hit for.

(btw I'd really appreciate a reply to my pm, thanks ^_^)

the dmg would not actually be that great with that setup
so if in the game there is tank i would use 156ee 24hm lvl55 dagger instead

I like _Mork_'s way of thinking. Healers can be effective even when they aren't healing.

More traslator for me.
My mage from level 1 to 55 use dagger with EE ( is mage for well) Lvl 55 use staff with int.
I prefer EE to make the climb

( Xaos )

All HM with an EE charm is greater than all. It's all well and good factoring in damage with healing, but thats not factoring in FG aswell. For example, you will get better results spending 2,000 FG on pure HM items with heal charms than you would spending 2,000 FG on hybrid/damage items.

That is, ofc, just my opinion.
