Which res is the best? i think the best one is "restore life" because it brings back and ally with more energy and hp than any other res while still being reusable, this allows them to get back to the fight asap.

Terra Xin · Oct 10, 2006, 11:24 PM // 23:24

Res Sig is the best one in the game.

My second fav is Rebirth for PvE, especially in tight situations where you don't want to agro too many mobs

And then yeah, i'd probrably go with restore life.

In most PvE instances, having one guy with restore life and another few with rebirth will make ressing a little more efficient.

You forgot Unyielding Aura, which I think is the best rez.
Dead serious.
Compare it to the other reusable/permenent resses (res sig is basically the only worthwhile PvP res, and being not reusable, its not effective in PvE compared to the others)
Unyielding Aura has the best cast time
Unyielding Aura has the best energy cost
Unyielding Aura has the best health return
Unyielding Aura has the best energy return
Unyielding Aura has full range
Rebirth has the best recharge
Light of Dwayna, Restoration, and Lively was Naomei res the most allies

Wow. In addition, Unyielding has the added bonus of shielding oyu team from all dp, however this is countered by the fact that if the caster runs out of energy or its removed, everyone dies.

res chant, same health as you (at the end of the cast), and im liking flesh of my flesh too.

rebirth is handy for near wipeout...

Rebirth. Saved PUGS in countless missions. Nothing better then being the last guy standing taking off and resing from a safe spot. So yeah rebirth FTW

Terra Xin · Oct 11, 2006, 04:29 AM // 04:29

Unyielding Aura is an elite that can only be used by monks... I'm certain there are more effective elites out there.

To make a correction: Rebirth, Resurrection Chant and Flesh of My Flesh have the same recharge.

Flesh of My Flesh and Unyielding Aura cost 5 energy

Unyielding Aura and Vengeance have equal Health and Energy replenishment

Unyielding Aura, Flesh of My Flesh, Resurrect, Rebirth and Vengeance have equal range.

Unyielding Aura and Resurrection Signet have equal cast time.

Rebirth is a nice res and all, but it irritates me when over half the team in PvE has it, specificly tombs B/P teams and such. When someone dies mid-fight, it's really good to have a way to get them up without the drawbacks of rebirth. I take res-chat whenever I play an E/Mo or Me/Mo in PvE, often on a monk as well (altough that sees rare use).

Flesh of my Flesh...

Poison Ivy · Oct 11, 2006, 05:05 AM // 05:05

Ressurection Chant, normally my choice for high end pvp.

brute blake · Oct 11, 2006, 05:31 AM // 05:31

PvE - Rebirth
PvP - Depends what charr im playing Rez Sig

Overall
Glyph Of Sac + Rez Chant

Vermilion Okeanos · Oct 11, 2006, 06:39 AM // 06:39

I call unyielding aura "pay for fake rez", or "zombinize"; not really a rez.

Flesh of my flesh is the best in my opinion. To get those health back is quite easy if your team is any good, while the cast time and energy return are both quite good. It is also harder to tell from normal rit spell in the casting animation aura comparing to ressurection chant.

glyph sac + rez chant got a few down side... one being it use 2 slots (which really isn't fair compare to other rez, when other rez only get to use 1 skill).

rebirth no doubt own PvE, but not in mid combat, and if you can rez in mid combat with FomF, then you wouldn't need rebirth. (with decent pulling too)

Restore life... meh

vengeance share the same fate with unyielding aura.

Pretty much all the AoE rez are not very controllable, most of the time you only get 1 extra rez; they need to give AoE rez an AoE buff. Do people tell others to die right next to each other?

**Marty Silverblade** · Oct 11, 2006, 07:06 AM // 07:06

I'd have to say Rebirth as it saves many hopeless and not so hopeless PuGs.

Skuld · Oct 11, 2006, 12:46 PM // 12:46

Res signet or Glyph of Sacrifice + Chant.

PanGammon · Oct 11, 2006, 01:00 PM // 13:00

Agreeing with the glyph chant combo. Has to be the ultimate PvP rez. Though for PvE I'd have to go with Rebirth to say those PUGs.

EPO Bot · Oct 11, 2006, 01:10 PM // 13:10

Naomei is nice to cast at a safe distance and then drop on top of your dead henchies.

Giga Strike · Oct 11, 2006, 01:43 PM // 13:43

personally i don't like rebirth that much. cuts off all ur skills and drains ur energy. not good for pvp.

it good for pve though, monsters are too stupid to chase you very far.

Pick Me · Oct 11, 2006, 02:50 PM // 14:50

To me Rebirth. It takes parties out of aggro to heal up and regain energy.

Ressurection Chant is great for in-combat situations (where death is not an option).

Flopjack · Oct 11, 2006, 05:05 PM // 17:05

That new No Attribute Signet for Ritualists looks kind of neat; The Death Pact Signet.

It ressurects target ally with your current health and mana, 2 seconds of cast and 8 recharge. However, if they die, so do you!

Giga Strike · Oct 11, 2006, 05:28 PM // 17:28

i think we can all agree that rebirth is one of the best for pve when monsters dont care about u if ur outside of thier aggro.

the best for pvp would be either res chant or restore life, since they bring the ally back with a fair amount and dont kill u or ur effectiveness.

CrispyCritter · Oct 11, 2006, 06:49 PM // 18:49

Actually I prefer Ressurect for PvP, since Res Chant and Restore Life just take too long to cast unless you have stupidly high Fast Casting.
