Talk:Mystic Regeneration

The enchant removal from this happens before this actually ends. So, if mystic regeneration is on top of the enchantment stack when it ends, it removes itself and you'll keep all enchantments below it. --68.142.14.19 05:24, 28 July 2006 (CDT)

Gotta be one of the best healing skills for an ele. That and Dwanya's Touch rock, so much health for so little cost and recharge. Its such a bonus since eles usually carry 2-3 enchants, plus mystic will equal 9-12 regen....thats insane!--Hyprodimus Prime 18:15, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

Yet another extremely potent Dervish healing skill. The duration is incredible, and the fact that this almost certainly counts itself means with two other enchants and 13 or higher Earth Prayers, you'll be getting constant +10 regen for 20 seconds. Lay Vow of Silence on top and it's unstrippable except for a few key non-spell enchant strips. Totally insane indeed. Arshay Duskbrow 22:45, 10 October 2006 (CDT)

A new 55 skill! Survey says: Spirit Bonders are better anyway. --Mgrinshpon 16:23, 21 October 2006 (CDT)

Can someone please add the location of this skill (what trainer?)

Nerf plz! &mdash; Skuld 16:17, 29 November 2006 (CST)
 * Agree. --[[Image:Gumby-sig.gif|User:Gumby]](talk) 11:25, 4 December 2006 (CST)
 * They can't nerf it yet, Anet needs for ppl to have reasons to want to by NF.--Windjammer 13:23, 15 December 2006 (CST)
 * This skill is so annoying. How do you counter a 5 second recharge enchantment? 213.84.230.131 09:59, 2 January 2007 (CST)
 * I AGREE! -19:46, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * By droppin' some heavy degen on them... = / Due to the popularity of the skill it's good to have some degens on you. This skill is VERY easily countered... Plus, if you let off damage fast enough, it doesn't matter how much regen they have. Regen isn't the best form of healing in the game, unless you have anti-melee and anti-spike skills on you... Pestilence 20:13, 18 February 2007 (CST)

Would someone mention whether the regeneration rate changes when another enchantment is added/removed? Mask Of Insanity 12:22, 17 December 2006 (CST)
 * It does. --Theeth (talk)   17:09, 17 December 2006 (CST)

Why isn't this apart of Mysticism? I mean the name kind of gives it away, but it's in Earth Prayers...oh well.--69.141.65.236 21:05, 19 December 2006 (CST)
 * balancing issues maybe. Xeon 21:09, 19 December 2006 (CST)
 * If it was mysticism it would be even better, and its already amazing. any Joe Derv can have 16 mysticsm as part of his build, but not all builds have earth prayers.--Coloneh RIP[[Image:Coloneh.png]] 23:17, 25 December 2006 (CST)
 * Well, at least other professions won't be able to use it. But yeah, sticking it in Mysticism won't change that much. --Ufelder 23:19, 25 December 2006 (CST)
 * oops, didnt even think of other professions, but right now the only downside to this is that its in earth prayers.--Coloneh RIP[[Image:Coloneh.png]] 14:36, 26 December 2006 (CST)
 * I wouldn't say this skill is overpowered. 99% of the time when a player uses this skill, they'll be packing enchants. Half of NF necro skills do damage whenever someone gains an enchant and such. Desecrate Enchantments on this would do 100+ damage, heck I'm not surprised if i see 200-250 damage if it hits an enchant crazy target. Truth is this skill can be its own counter in a way. Soul barbs+desecrate enchants+defile enchants would kill a target or bring it down to extremely low health without Prot Spirit or anything like that. So far, I've only seen this skill work well in situations where enchant craziness is necessary.--Shadow Dragon 18:26, 10 January 2007 (CST)

Resetting indent. I use it with my survivor Dervish. That +10 regen, along with AoDwayna and Mystic Vigor makes for a really nice build with a lot of health gain. Mesodreth Blackwing 18:21, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Early Capture?
Does anyone know bosses which have this skill before Torment? Or even better, does anyone know how to construct a query of bosses that would have this skill? Thanks! -- Oblio (talk) 15:10, 4 January 2007 (CST)
 * Answering my own question- No boss has this skill. (perhaps this foretells it's nerf? Anyway, I did it the hard way and looked at all D bosses. If someone knows how to construct a specialpage query or something, I would like to see it. Regarding the skill, I guess I'll have to PvP to unlock (since I'm taking the chapter slow). -- [[Image:Ranger-icon-small.png|25px]]Oblio (talk) 15:31, 4 January 2007 (CST)

I bought it from a trainer in the 2nd outpost I think? Pretty early on. Dunno, I might've unlocked it for my account before then. Can't remember.

Just unlock it with 1000 Balthazar faction and you can get it from any skill trainer in Elona. Arshay Duskbrow 19:21, 4 January 2007 (CST)

Unlocking with Balthazar faction will only allow you to use it in PvP!
 * it will allow you to use it in PvP, but it also allows you to buy it at any skill trainer in NF that teaches. Falafel 09:07, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

55 monks
amazing for 55 monks with as little as 3 in earth prayers a monk needs only 5 enchantments Prot spirit, This skill , Mending , Balth spirit , essence bond plus it casts faster and lasts longer than healing breeze. You could even take out mending and put in watchful spirit so u wouldnt need any point in healing prayers
 * Yep. My 55 monk doesn't even have anything in healing prayers.  The downside of this though is that the mesmer skills that were useful to a 55 monk (like Mantra of Concentration) aren't available anymore. -Wang 01:48, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Inviciele/Sandstormers
This must is very useful for those Ele's that run sandstorm builds. Does Anyone agree with that? ---82.221.0.17 12:44, 1 February 2007 (CST)-Panthor
 * As long as you bring enough enchantments it will work nicely in any Elementalist's build. For example: dual attunement users may want to consider using this skill as self heal. Hyper.nl 20:13, 16 September 2007 (CDT)

Spanish translation meshed up
The spanish translation of this skill states that its durations is 20 minutes, not seconds like in english. Crigore 5 February 2007.

Kamadan!
This skill is now available for purchase from Tohn in Kamadan. Seb2net 15:48, 4 March 2007 (CST)
 * Accually, that was a lie. It just seems that Tohn can offer any NF skill already unlocked on your account. That does however make things a little easier if you need it on a character which you're not planning on going thru NF with. Seb2net 16:47, 4 March 2007 (CST)
 * No more regen whores. --69.133.105.149 20:39, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
 * That's the behavior of all skill trainers outside of presearing / Shing Jea. For campaign X, unlocking a skill and visiting trainer in area of campaign X will allow you to purchase that skill - so if you unlock apply poison in Proph, you don't need to trek all the way to Kryta to get the skill. - Phydeaux 21:57, 4 March 2007 (CST)
 * Still waiting on "fix" for skill trainer for Guild Halls... Queen Schmuck 23:11, 4 March 2007 (CST)
 * It isn't broken. The skill trainer in the guild hall only sells core skills, which makes sense in a way, even if people couldn't purchase skill for accounts they don't own.  This way you have to at least go to a continent before buying skills tied to it. -Gildan Bladeborn 16:47, 27 June 2007 (CDT)

I like this skill, but...
Do you guys agree this is a bit overpowered? I mean, with 4 enchantments at level 8 earth prayers, you get +12 health regen (max is +10). You guys do agree that it is a bit overpowered, but still can't be used to counter mass spikers en masse within like 4 seconds. But still, it is useful to counter some degen from hexes and/or conditions. In fact, I'm going to add a note to this. --Dark Paladin X 10:22, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

Defile Enchantments Shatter Enchantment or if you can't be targeted by spells: Chilblains Well of the Profane, or if I were playing a mesmer, I might open with Backfire. Relying on tons of enchantments to heal you isn't always the best thing. HP regen caps at +10, or 20 HP/second, and my warrior deals about 60/s. You also would have to use your precious skill slots to bring enchantments for this to work, which would decrease your damage output. So, I must say a Me/N (which I have) could easily be made to destroy you and anyone that uses spells and enchantments. StatMan 08:32, 7 June 2007 (CDT)

Kenohir does not teach this skill
I went to get this skill from Kenohir in the Command Post, only to find that he doesn't sell it. The only skill even containing the word mystic in the Earth Prayers section is Mystic Sandstorm. I haven't gotten far enough to confirm the other trainer.
 * Looks as though someone probably already had it unlocked on their account, and spoke to Kenohir to buy something else. ~Nahka~ 01:37, 10 June 2007 (CDT)

Melonni is an idiot
She seems to have next to no idea how to use this skill- she'd much rather cast other enchantments before it. Any idea how I can make her prioritise it? And when she does use it, she doesn't even bother to maintain it-I think it may be because she is designed to take advantage of the Mysticism attribute effect. Leeroythefeared 16:08, 27 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Short of manually forcing her to do it, there's really no way...there's a reason I never use Melonni. Dervish is one of those classes that AI just can't use properly...Assassin is another. Arshay Duskbrow 06:15, 21 August 2007 (CDT)
 * AI does fine with basic Dervish skill bars. The more complex you make it (Conviction, Mystic Regen, what have you) the more likely it doesn't use it how you want them to use it. For that reason, I've tended to make Melonni use the Avatar of Melandru GvG template, as there is very little in the way of screwing that up in PvE. --Kale Ironfist 07:01, 21 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Yep. That's why it's best to give heroes skills that work straightforwardly by themselves. Consistent and timely skill combos are problematic. Melonni would probably work fine if you wanted a basic scythe attacker with one or two defensive enchants. Still... Arshay Duskbrow 08:05, 21 August 2007 (CDT)

Another skill Trainer
You can get this skill from Rohmen in Jokanur Diggings but it's not listed on the page. Maybe it should be added? (I hope I posted this right, I've never post anything before just read.)
 * No, you cannot get this from Rohmen in Jokanur Diggings UNLESS you have already unlocked the skill. Once unlocked, ALL skill trainers that can teach it will offer the skill. --Kale Ironfist 10:25, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

I still say it was pretty much pointless to nerf it. The only uses it ever had in PvP was by the N/D Sac Touchers and E/D Earth Tanks... but the N/Ds weren't imba, and the E/Ds just sat there and spammed Stone Daggers. Lord of the Yoshis 03:43, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Meh, the nerf has little effect on dervs which is a nice change from most abused then nerfed skills. Mr IP 03:47, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Umm... yes there WAS a reason to nerf it. Farming. Running. 130 dervs. 55 monks. Earth eles. Okay, my bad, not a reason, many reasons --Gimmethegepgun 03:49, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

As for those many reasons for nerfing... Shadow Form is used for running more often than Regen was, 55s will never die unless they nerfed PS, 130 dervs are about on the same level as the A/E Solo Green Farmer, Earth Eles are like the 55s... unless you were stupid enough to use it in PvP where they just sat around spamming Stone Daggers, and Terra Tanks are E/Me in most cases. Just my opinion, though... Lord of the Yoshis 04:33, 7 February 2008 (UTC)


 * This was bound to happen. Somehow saddens me because it will make my Vow of Strength builds more vulnerable to degen (Mandragor in EoN). I used this a lot in AB and RA too. Overall it seems the latest update is pushing the professions to take more healing skills of their own as all the party-wide monk heals were nerfed and self-heals of other professions were buffed. GLYPH OF RESTORATION has become very potent. I used that one in AB's and with this now working on two skills, I can almost surely say this can get my health up from <25% to >75% in two casts. Put in mystic regen and ya still settled ;P PuppetX 06:31, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

There goes farming the undead outside bergen in HM. It's going to be a lot slower if I don't have a slot for either shield of abs or smite condition...--68.111.15.89 13:52, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

I completely agree with you Puppet X. Now a self-heal on your bar has become necessary alomost everywhere as monks can't even use their skills to do a good job healing people anymore. I miss the good old days :( Konradishes 20:25, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Good, anything that could do that is imba and should be slaughtered by the nerf stick anyway. Stuff like this is why Izzy doesn't read his talk at GWW anymore, because all people do is complain about how their instawin build/skill just got nerfed.

 * To Slic: About a month or two again when they buffed the hell out healign prayers line, HB WoH(still much above pre buff) ect.
 * Mystic regen wasn't that great in pvp anyways, builds that had more then 3 enchantments in them were almost always tanks and not worth killing anyways, with a prot monk on a mystic regen player it could be bad, but kill the monk and not the one with MR.
 * In PVE, I don't see what the problem was, NPC mobs are made stronger by game mechanics, players use powerful skills and heals to counter that. --Alari 00:37, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Still going to be used, just less by non-dervishes. Mysticism still makes up for the energy cost, ability to use Earth Prayers runes, and bars that love enchantments mean this is still an awesome skill.
 * ...on other professions, not so much. Some builds that need it won't mind the duration; chances are they've already got 8 points in the skill, so it lasts longer then the recharge. Worse come to worse, we see Healing Breeze start getting used more now. Big deal. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jïörüjï Ðērākō.> .cнаt^  21:51, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Sometimes i wish they'd keep PvP nerfs seperate from PvE, it wasn't overpowered at all in PvE but the whole fucking game revolves around the GvG and AB. One reason I've stopped playing as much.
 * Wrong, the whole game in Izzy's eyes revolves around GvG and HA. Seb2net 22:11, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

It is quite a detracter from the game. I wish they'd get it right the first time rather then waiting for someone to come up with something clever and then nerf it. Without an influx of new skills its hard to keep making up new builds.

Bye bye E/D eles. 76.89.81.150 00:24, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Needs to be buffed now...
Mystic Regeneration is useless now. Anet should just move it to Mysticism and change it back to what it was before the February 6 update.

Siril Frein 01:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * ^Like that idea.^ In fact, that's the way it should've always been. It's not that I mind the nerf. It was crazy powerful and over used imo. It's the fact that it took so long for something to be done about it. The longer you leave something like this the more peeps fall in love with it, the greater the outcry when the nerf bat swings. Maybe this was a bit of a hard line nerf but, still, this was a long time coming.

I really don't like that idea, it'll screw with a million of my builds. Also, it'll make it STRONGER, I think. People can just put a lot of points into mysticism, and forget about earth prayers. A lot of people put at least 8 points into earth prayers to use this skill effeciently, and if you moved it, they wouldn't have to! 194.237.146.68 09:49, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
