but u cant be interupted with steadfast

and i see i looked at a old aa pic that showed unwavering giving disruption and focus not focus and health, my bad there

But you can still get a spell reset, so it's useless.

You know, when the spellname turns red and you have to start casting the spell all over again but it's not a "real" interrupt?

I wish we had fizzels again, so much less annoying than spell resets.

I've been running Steadfast since Trak and have not bothered to switch it out so I must confess I'm not exactly sure which encounters in TSO really make Steadfast worthwhile, I certainly haven't heard other healers bitching so I have to wonder if it's really needed much in TSO. I've been strongly considering dropping Steadfast to pickup Divine Recovery and Melee/Heal Crit. Could anyone give a quick run down of which encounters make steadfast really worthwhile?

Mortal Coil, just saying.

Roldor

Yeah I don't have that item so not really a worry for me.

Any further compeling reasons to stick with Steadfast for TSO raiding (aside from avatars that is)?

If you don't have the mortal coil and aren't killing avatars then there really isn't a reason to have it. If you're still working on ROK content you'll need it for trak and byzola.

What say you to the spell reset that has been mentioned here in conjunction with Mortal Coil? Does that happen or not?

God, people.

IF YOU ARE STANDING STILL, and havent moved for the last few seconds, your spells will NEVER be interrupted or RE-cast.

Unless you dont have your mythical, while steadfast is active, very little will actually interfere with pushing a button and having it cast 100%.

KNOCKBACKS (every other encounter in the game worth mentioning), MEZZES (Venril, Mayong), CHARMS (Silverwing, AoH, Xebnok), and FEARS (Tangrin, AoF, AoS) will still affect you, but Stuns and Stifles you will mostly be immune to. Oh yea its awesome for Byzola, too. (Tangrin and AoS are gay together cuz Steadfast doesnt work while in water).

So unless you are killing these types of mobs, I wouldnt worry about speccing STR line, unless you just want to inflate your E-peen and pump up your HP like I do! I think i can hit 17k solo now wewt!

This is not true. You will get stunned to fuck when a stun comes by unless sanctuary or holy shield is on you, or some other aoe avoid. You will be immune to Stifles and Interrupts, Stuns still go through.
