WHM Eye for an Eye poll

[Euphe]

How often do other WHMs use Eye for an Eye? is it worth having even though we won't benefit from the improved version of it? I'm debating getting it is why I'm asking. SS+Eye/eye sounds like a good idea to put on tanks, but can its effects be applied to the primal fights and boss monsters or is it just trash mobs it can effect? It would be awesome to use on Titan fight after heart if it would weaken him a little.

All the time. This is part of my oh shit routine. Its instant cast, you cannot go wrong with this. I was like you, I did not have it for the longest time. I only got it for my smn and only then did I realize what I was missing out on. I use it in all situations.

eye for an eye (crossclassed) has the exact same effect as an arcanists' eye for an eye, just at a higher recast time

Eye for an Eye and Virus are your two damage mitigation skills. Certainly an important part of your arsenal. In Coil there are a lot of hard hitting things, it comes to good use there. Eye for an Eye is better when many mobs are hitting the target, since that increases the chance of it going off. If your tank is tanking only one mob, it may take some time before it goes off, and with bad luck it may not go off at all.

Absolutely no reason not to use it. It's off global cool-down, it has a chance to reduce incoming damage for upwards of 35 seconds and it costs 0 mp. If the debuff lands, great, if not you didn't lose anything.

Yeah, this is one of those abilities you just need to have to be on par with other healers. Even consider things like speed runs (an incredibly common thing at 50 as I'm sure you know); when pulling a huge group of mobs, its awesome to use Eye for an Eye and see the debuff popping up on all the mobs.

Honestly, I forget to use it a lot because its on my secondary bar (I really should switch it and Surecast), but when I do its usually when the tank is tanking a group (WP anyone?).

[Skold]

It is very much needed. It is a lifesaver in turn 4 coil.

What else are you gonna slot... Ruin... Physick?

If you plan to play WHM for any length of time then yes, it's worth getting.

[Menae]

It's not necessary (I don't have it because I don't really want to grind ARC to 34), but it certainly doesn't hurt.
