  • It heals big when we were in melee to a lot of mobs.
  • Its cd is higher than any traited fire field cd.
  • The extra blast to keep up fury almost constantly.
    I think it’s great the way it is. Pardon me but I don’t understand the term ‘melee heal’. And I always melee with my staff.

What would be a ‘range heal’ then?

I would much rather as D/D be able to use different fields with it. It is not like we can’t exactly get Might already, why add yet another source for D/D why not give us another field or 2 so that we can make use of this and other blasts rather than Might, Might, Might.

So you need a 30 point trait in Fire to make the Heal worth using? Take away all the possible traits. Then what does it have? Nothing but another Might Blast which D/D already has plenty of. I say Melee heal due to the fact it gets stronger the more people it hits.

As i said, this for being a more melee based heal is rather pointless having a Blast finisher when the ONLY weapon that has more than 1 field is the RANGED staff. If the other weapons were actually give more choice when it came to Fields then this heal would be GREAT, as it is – its wasted potential for all weapons bar the ranged one which is silly considering its a melee heal.

You keep taking the selfish approach that the blast is for your own fields. It is just as useful for the fields of your team mates. That was already mentioned in this post as well. So you can still get benefit from it as a D/D in a team.

Of course if you like to roam solo then you’ll have to learn to appreciate the heal as opposed to the finisher.
