Syloc, I know you said you cant heal someone when they are doing figure 8's n what not..

That is not really what the heals are for.


Those that choose to go support are usually not in the thick of things. on the EU server we used to set up Healing Stations that were slightly out of the thick of things. It was up to the rest of the people on our side to pull back for the heals and rebuffs.

In small scale pvp.. It may not be super effective but in siege warfare it does help. Granted we wont see a siege every day or every time we log in, But its good to be prepared. Can you go with out a support role, sure you can.

The main reason to go a support role is not to be uber and get lots of kills, Its to help your team mates, and Works best for someone that likes to play that type of role.

I agree with you that Support Roles should get all the debuffs and utility spells like Eye Rot, and Confusion. They will make things much more viable for them in small scale combat.



Like I said in my above post, I have almost always rolled a support type character. It is what I love to play. Even in FPS games I always rolled a medic/support style. It meshes well with my playstyle.
I am sure that once I have all of my "support temp" worked out and closer to complete, I would work more on the Offensive things.

Anyone choosing this playstyle and template better get used to getting killed a bit till you have enough knowledge to fight back more effectively. It is not a role for the masses. It takes someone who understands and likes this type of template.


If you changed Kay's or Mor's template up to be like mine, I doubt they would be as effective. But the same goes for me, I don't always do as well with the template that many have gone already.
