Why would you be doing Voidwatch less than a level 99? All your "we get these abilties late" arguments are not very valid. Agree with everything else.
Voidwatch is not the only content in the game where you might need to heal yourself as something other then /mage, when all the other 'pet' jobs get the ability to heal themselves at a much lower level. Which was the true point I was trying to make, why is it that drg has to wait till 90? Also, drg gets most of the polearm ws and angon long before 90 so you could easily do voidwatch as less then 99. I myself did voidwatch for 2 weeks as my 94 sch, you only have to be 75 to participate.
