On the hero Ogden Stonehealer, is "remove hex" better or is "holy veil" better? What do you guys think? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I'd recommend remove hex - they don't maintain enchantments ever, so it's basically the same spell with a 4s longer cooldown.

Oh, that makes sense. Thank you. Though how do you get heroes to maintain enchantments then?

You can Shift-click it to disable it and then force them to cast it on whoever you want them to. However, you're not going to be able to manage Holy Veil on a hero in the middle of a fight with any efficiency.

Didn't Anet update Hero AI for Holy Veil a while ago?

And I actually like Cure Hex a lot better because of the heal.

They did, I'd have to test it to see if they actually maintain it now outside of battle. The only other thing is that you'd still have to pick who they maintain it on, since otherwise they probably just choose targets at random, or higher-priority targets (low health or armor level allies).
