i saw ZERO mystic, priest

but idk

Mystic actually looked really fun to me. However, I'm not sure how easy it is to dodge mobs; maybe a healer isn't needed. Any thoughts on that?

Healers are always needed in MMOs.

i have not played the game yet but dodging is a single button, how you dodge it is likely based on your current movement direction.

Thanks for your valuable insight!

Well to even question if a healer is needed is a dumb question to begin with.

How so? I've seen a lot of people saying that they very rarely see healers so maybe the need for one isn't as high in TERA. Your conventional MMOs don't have a battle system like TERA; you don't have to sit and tank.

I would say that making a general statement such as yours is much more "dumb".

Oh really... just because it isn't a conventional MMO doesn't mean that healers won't give you an edge.
I'm willing to bet that in all PvE and PvP encounters a healer will greatly benefit the team.

Ady and i were the only people in the jp tera to get to higher level content.

And i gotta say, these dungeons and elites are hard to dodge all.the damage.

I was soloing some elites that require 5 people, and we tried to 2 man a 5 man dungeon and some 5 man elites...a healer is required. It is skill based, so if you are on top of your game and you know what the boss is going to do you can theoretically avoid all the damage.

But in practice, that is reallu difficult to do and the elites hit so hard you really need a healer. I remember the last boss fight of the level 30 dungeon ady and i ran, we survived for a while when the healer died, but all the.mechanics and insane damage eventually caught up to us and we died.
