not a skill, per se, but if you kite from a monster, they all drop what they're doing and start running too.

some things i've noticed, for what its worth

- when equipped with death nova, olias seems to like letting the minions die just so the death nova is triggered. he becomes very lazy with healing the minions.

- koss won't maintain balthazar's aura on himself, but he will maintain mending :S i think i caught him casting it on me once though.

- koss will use rebirth on a party member and rebirth them right into the middle of a fray lol

- when a necromancer party member sacrifices life, tahlkora will cast prot spirit on them instead of heal them XD

- ranger heores tend to have poor judgement when it comes to setting down spirits

- elementalist heroes won't maintain both an attunement and aura of restoration. they seem to just use whichever one is first on the skillbar.

- i've seen zhed charge into the middle of a mob to cast MS, there's something totally wrong with him sometimes he often ignores flags entirely.

Sousuke does the same, probably becouse they follow targets when you don't want them to....

Because the op got banned (anyone know why?). We need a new thread.



@ Lurid: Tainted Flesh makes the minions stay more often close to their master. So it's possible that your group bashs a mob group before any minions did their first attack. If you want to use Tainted Flesh and/or Death Nova, you have to bring another necro hero for that.

Word of Healing. They will spam it whenever recharged, regardless of whether the target is below 50% health or not. They even do this when they have an alternative, non-conditional spell (e.g. Orison) available.

Well WoH does heal for more than Orison for the same energy, even when the condition isn't met.

As for [skill]faithful intervention[/skill] I've noticed that enemies use it when low on health. My theory is that the hero AI is basically the same as the enemy AI, so I expect heroes to do the same. However heroes will pre-cast illusion of weakness.

I've never seen Norgu cast it in battle, but I would probably attribute the health drop to enemy actions. However when its on his bar he always casts it just as we enter an area.

I've never seen any enemies with it though.

My olias will never cast dwayna's sorrow on his minions or anyone for that matter.
Melonni will not use ebon dust aura at all. She's wielding a zealous axe and uses staggering force, havent tested with an ebon axe.

Koss uses Disrupting Dagger as a damage spell and Norgu doesn't maintain Mantra of Recovery during battle.

Tahlkora and Dunkoro wouldn't use Channeling in all the time I put it on their bars. Made Boon Prot w/ elite Monk skill, builds useless

I run a hybrid Shield of Regeration Mo/E bar now religiously, although I am not sure if they like to use Gift either.

Rangers will put spirits any where they like so it best to move them then activate the skill yourself.

I made Melonni a D/Rt and gave her [skill]Splinter Weapon[/skill], which she thinks is a good spell to cast on casters rather than herself.

Hybrid bars seem like a total mystery to the hero monks. They seem to just bleed all their energy away on directionless prot skills and then refuse to use GoH. Simple seems to be the best way to go with them. Straight up WoH/LoD bars work fine and full prot seems to work OK if you keep the high energy skills to a minimum. Also on my monk hero, powerdrain never leaves their bar. Those guys are leet with interupts and pdrain is great e-mgmt.

Monks would rather die than use Zealous Benediction, Holy Veil, or Dismiss Condition on themselves. Most annoying in 4-6 man areas when you often have only one monk.
