SCH in feast...

How in the hell do you beat a good sch, they're invincible with lustrate being an ogcd physick that can't be silenced nor pulled.

Nice job!

No but seriously, They get three white flashes, DPS one target, silence while they lustrate then kill them = profit. at least that's how I do it, if they get the broil off before you silence you're gonna have to stall or try something else I guess, your melee gonna have to split the damage a little to force them to waste their stuff before going in for the kill.

I'm usually a Monk so best I can do is hope and pray and burst them when they're down

I'm specifically talking about to the level of Rum Raisin's sch, It's rare I see her in the "danger" zone. It's just so much healing and shielding going out in a short time frame I can't do anything but watch. Other schs aren't that good and can easily be overpowered

I dunno I've never fought that person, but i've fought against our plat scholars regularly, you have to remember that CD's are not infinite, a big big big issue I see is, okay so say the target you're focusing has blackest on, people still focus them, if the entire game you only focus one target CD's will only need be used on that target, so if your DPS don't bother hitting anyone else but the target, people will only have to use CD's on them, if your tank isn't CCing then a good healer almost can't be beaten .

People keep saying focus this focus this, but most of my games up to platinum were won by splitting then changing targets and bursting while the healer is surprised.

and most of my losses have come from my attempting to just "Focus the 1" how does that end? Benediction? Lustrate? Blackest Night? Protect? Cover? All these CD's being used on a single target and then when they wear? people still focus them just to repeat the process all over again.

Throw the healer down low? Blackest night the healer protect the healer, lustrate etc. then focus that 1 and they'll melt.

Ya most of my wins come from me multi dotting when I play smn and just waiting until I have my double AF burst and just pop the lowest thing I see, but what you are saying makes sense I'll keep a note of that.

you also have the issue of tanks trying to DPS as well leaving healers able to freecast. If no one is hitting them and other targets when do they run dry on MP? It'll take a while, if you're forcing them to heal multiple people/shield multiple people they will eventually run out.

I'm still working on reacting to blackest/protect myself, because those things really really make a difference between a kill and half HP.
