Remove the Stun!

Ultor · 11-10-2007, 01:59 AM

The defilers are rallying about removing their stifle from Maelstrom, if they get it removed, there is no reason we cant get our stun removed from Focused Intercession. Everyone keep an eye on what happens, would be great if Focused Intercession could actually be used to backup your other heals, rather than pretty much being off my hotbar.

almost guarantee it wouldnt happen for either us or defilers, they would likely lessen the heal amount as well as up the recast if they even thought about doing it

Well if defilers gonna bitch about it and have thiers changed and nerfed heal amount without the stun I sure hope SOE leaves us alone :P

I personally don't mind it as it is, using it mainly on multi mob encounter pulls; stacking Dire, Glorious and Focused until the encounter is fully debuffed. Rarely will it do its full 30sec duration (if it does, just cancelling it like 15seconds into its duration to do some proper healing), usually only lasting 10-15seconds, but it's enough for AE encounter debuffs, etc to be put up.

<HINT> Err umm I find it benefical in some instances to be able to stun myself in place, with an off switch.... </HINT>

Amusingly I have actually used it for that purpose before. Way back(as in it doesn't work anymore), you could ghost your character while being stunned. So when I'd go out writ questing in Lavastorm and get a dumb goblin aggro on me, I'd cast it on myself and hold forward. The server would think that I'm running forward and the goblin would eventually follow my ghost until it leashed. At which point I'd unstun myself and go about my merry way.

I don't mind it as it is now. It's definitely not a spell I use all of the time it just depends on the situation. Usually large multi mob encounters where it doesn't last the full duration. If I do put it up and the stun is a problem I just cancel it.

If it didn't have the stun I might use it more often but I don't see the stun as a big deal now. Maybe leave the stun and make it heal more for focused intercession and take it off and heal less for maelstrom.
