As a summoner I had different reactions with using a LB:
- Why did you use the LB on trash, melee could have used it on boss; Me: =_=
- Why did you not use the LB on trash, dont need it on boss; Me: =_=
Or I dont use the LB on trash and want the melee to use it at a boss and just see how the boss is going down to <5% and the melee just uses it at the last second, thus using it too late since it could have taken more LP with them; Me: =_= (and internal facepalm)
People can also just tunnel the boss so much that they forget to LB and not watch the chat thus miss people talking about it. Or maybe they have a ranged as a main and just going to level their melee and thus forget that its their job to hit the boss with it.
Its probably not done on purpose or even because of them being lazy, it might just be that they forgotten it or they had runs like I did where you just did it wrong by using it somehwere where the set of people did not want it and thus fear of using it there again. I am fine if people are getting a bit cranky in chat if I misuse it (even if its not a misuse in my view) but I can see how this could scare newer players away from using it ever again. Kinda like "before I get told off that I was using it wrong I am just ignoring it as long as possible and hope that the other DD will use it instead".
Maybe they could rework it into making LB1 raising tanks, LB2 raising tanks and healers and LB3 raising everyone. Thus this might help at least a bit more than just an aoe heal (and save mana). Just an idea that went into my head after reading your post.![]()
(In the end I am just happy to use an LB as a mage because it feels great to rain down death on my enemies :3)
