You can kiss my ass too. I will buck the "common knowledge" any time I feel like it. Just because it is 'obvious' doesn't mean you should accept it as fact without question. I'm tempted to call that out as retarded, but unlike you, I'll be honest. It's lethargic.

There will never be a templar better than me....

So seriously, Phay, Fuck off. It was real clear what your real motives are.

Of course the obvious easy answer is "whenever it is up". But if you are content with that answer, and you will not take the time to even try to doublecheck to see if that is right, then you are a shitty healer. Up until now, I have been just casting it whenever it is up.Oh so you are saying u figureing that out just now.. if so thats pretty slow for " best templar" isn't it? its been more than month since rok launched trust me i already try that .. even on beta but it wasnt working as intented
But, the question still remains, since there is a heal element to the spell, is it possible to get more out of it by trying to make it land when the tank is not 100%? k i try to keep tank at 100% so i cast my ward before he gets hit not after .. what good Repent gonna do when casting it after the hit?

I'm out of town and not at my usual rig, so I can check my parse, but how many times does a mob hit (and doesnt miss etc) durring the ~26 sec recast? Maybe 3 times. So repent has a chance at preventing a one-shot at best 1 out of 3 hits. It seems like (again I'm not anywhere near my parser) that the one shots typically happen with a double attack right after a hit has knocked down all the wards. I.E. miss, bock, miss, 8000, miss, 11000, 9000. If the repent was up for the 8000 hit, then it would be down for the double attack. i dont know when mob is gonna double attack so i cast it pretty much every time its up just incase it opens up with double attack on pull or double attacks before the 8k or w/e
Would it help any if the repent was up for the double attack when most or all of the other wards are down?

Now lets add two templars to the situation to mix things up. Assume the first templar is going to have his repent up "whenever it is up". So his repent was up for the 8000 hit. Being the 2nd templar, you notice that the tank drop to 90% or something. You know all the wards are down at that point, so you go ahead and cast yours. (multiple repents dont stack btw)( no reactive or ward ( if its similar spell )doesnt stuck btw ) That and the single target ward that is prolly up by now should save the tank. Better than blindly casting repent whenever it's up?
as for 2nd templar .. they can have made macro.. could be like this - /cast Repent & /t 2nd emplar - casting Repent or w/e so they know their not overwriteing each other

Discuss...

Damn guys, I'm just trying to get some discussion going here to see if anyone has or can get any more use out of repent than just casting it when it is up. I guess I got that much, maybe.
