Talk:Reverse Hex

So can anyone actually come up with a use for this skill? Ubermancer 23:16, 3 August 2006 (CDT)
 * It's basically remove hex and reversal of fortune rolled in one. You only save 1/4 second... it's not very useful.--Life Infusion 22:27, 22 August 2006 (CDT)
 * To be accurate, you save a full second, due to the 3/4 second aftercast. That being said...I'd still take both reversal and remove before reverse hex.  If it were a one second cast, I might think about taking reverse hex.  As it is, it's not worth a second glance.--Carmine 21:37, 18 March 2007 (CDT)
 * I used it on my monk Hero's skillbar in Factions and it was very useful as a prot monk skill used with the right energy management skills. However shouldn't "If a hex was removed, " be added to the description? Is it not in the description in the game? If not, maybe I should report it as a possible typo to A-net. --Jyro X 08:38, 25 September 2006 (CDT)
 * "If a hex is removed", or any phrase like that to describe the conditional, is NOT in the description in-game. — HarshLanguage [[Image:qswearing_small.png|HarshLanguage]] 21:54, 26 January 2007 (CST)
 * A minor boon is that it will be affected by Aura of Enchantment. A rather weak boon...but...it is...something. --Carmine 21:03, 9 February 2007 (CST)
 * All the discussion bashing it seems to be from back when it was a 2-second cast with a 7-second recharge. Now that it's .25/10, does anybody think it's worth using? I've had it on my PvE active prot monk for a while, but I dunno if it's the optimal hex removal to be taking. 404notfound 20:59, 16 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I'd say no, but I'm not a monk. The good things about this are it's got a fast cast and faster than usual recharge for a hex removal, so it's good use of time.  But the damage reduction is kind of unimpressive since you can get better results for 10e if you spend more time doing it.  Deny/veil and then reversal will get more effect, a second dose of divine favor, and at least as much hex removal, but take 2s from beginning of casting the first to the end of casting the second.  --Fyren 21:24, 16 May 2007 (CDT)
 * The damage reduction is going to be about as useful as a second hit of DF anyway, so it's really just saving skill slots at the cost of requiring more energy upfront. --Kale Ironfist 22:07, 16 May 2007 (CDT)

Backfire + Reverse Hex
If you have backfire on yourself does this lessen the damage that you take from it or is the damage BEFORE the reduction
 * Before the reduction. &mdash; Skuld 04:39, 1 March 2007 (CST)
