Kicked from DR Leveling because I don't slot Protect for low level dungeons?

With Mind gear, the difference is not negligible. Nobody is going to queue up for leveling roulette as Scholar and wear the Int/Mind gear. I agree with your point about Stoneskin though, that is more of a noob trap than anything... healers using stoneskin mid pull (double the cost of Cure, shields about half the health you'd recover with Cure).

At the end of the day, these people are arguing that a placebo buff (and yes, that is literally all it is) is better than damage efficiency, and this thread will be laughed at for as long as it remains on the front page.

It is negligible in lower level dungeons, aka Sastasha, Tam-Tara Deepcroft, Copperbell Mines, because at those levels there is barely any difference in your INT/MND even if you're 'wearing MND gear'.

Having said that, Cleric Stance is still my #1 slot... unless PvP cause you can't cleric there :V
