Happy with Reaver now?

Now that they've "fixed" Reaver, anyone finding any actual use for it?

It's still a shadow of what it used to be. I want my 3% heals back. :/

If i recall it was 2.5% originally. Currently now its pretty good and i rarely turn it off anymore. its not the end all uber ability but it gives me more health than it takes finally. so i'll settle this is the least of our broken abilities they really need to dig deeper to understand the Sk class and soon we might have a resonable chance to experience content that we are often denied in lieu of other classes.

I never had a problem with it's drain before, and I can't say I've noticed any real change personally.

Personally I think its still a joke.. Does Reaver account for 2300 HP? Because thats basically what you get with the Pools of blood. For a tank the hate and decay lines are the best reward spells with left over points spent on the healing improvements. With the Bloodletter spell, Divine aura, Pools of blood, a Level 80 SK is a hard man to kill.

I have the end lines of all 3 trees and every ability I want, if you plan your trees out you can get just about everything, you don't have to pass on siphon hate or Pools of blood.

Any +heal items used to bump it up to 3.0%.

It's cool. >.>

I can't tell the difference tbh, it is still weak.

Unless I am totally reading Pools of Blood wrong, I still prefer Reaver. With Reaver, I can cast Divine Aura, and spam spells and get my health back up. Combine that with the ward, and can give the healer a chance to catch up. Combine all this with Bloodletter, and I can survive many more "oh, shit!" moments than ever.

With pools, I am lying face down on the floor waiting for someone to heal me (unless I mis-understand how it works) and losing aggro to the ones nuking to burn the mob down fast.
