So how many of the farming builds posted here just got nerfed by the Mystic Regen change? 55ing is clearly taking a large hit with it even with the Mending/HB swap

Well, sometimes you dont always need the +15, so you can still use mystic regen, just bring mending instead of essence bond or something

Well typically i dont bother with Essence, I carry Balthy for e mgmt, My utility skill alot of times is sig of myst wrath against undead, and judges intervention in other areas with bosses

I know that the nerf isn't the worst one out there but you just get sick of it happening again and again. Good lord can you just leave well enough alone. It's not like we can really make that much scratch off of these farming builds. Some of us just like to have a little fun

I doubt it will adversely affect any farming build. Maybe only the Mo/D 55 variant, but you can just swap in Healing Breeze or Spirit Bond and problem solved.

Or neither. I take 0 damage where I 55 :P.

Mystic Regen always sucked... Honestly, switching secondary for some health regen when you can take breeze just isn't worth it.

it will affect areas with heavy degen like bleeding + poision.

Mystic Regen is only used against degen (eg undead outside Bergen Hot Springs), hence you still take damage. To neutralise that, take HB or SB.

Although it might impress the newbs in Ascalon, 55ing level 8 char in normal mode doesn't drop very good stuff.

55's have been around long before the dervishes. Mystic Regen was just a little bonus, 55's are fine without it.

with 3 enchants and decent earth magic you should still be looking at +2 regen even with bleeding and poison.

Sir Pandra Pierva · Feb 08, 2008, 03:04 AM // 03:04

what about burning and poison

EmptySkull · Feb 08, 2008, 03:12 AM // 03:12

Well seems to be ok to me. Although it is a little slower because I swapped SoA for HB. Still works!

Here's the code:

QQ less, think of good builds more. Skill selection-wise, people are still better off than pre-Nightfall.
