Talk:Ether Feast

Efficiency
I heard somewhere that this was the most efficient heal in the game. I'm hesitant to belive that. Any insights?
 * It's definitely very efficient. It's essentially non-conditional while the other things that are in the same league have strings attached (like imbue, touch, word, ZB).  --Fyren 02:28, 23 December 2006 (CST)
 * Actually, it has quite a few conditions attached to it—must target an enemy who is targetable by a spell and with enough energy. I would say Orison of Healing is the most unconditional heal out there. --Ufelder 03:20, 23 December 2006 (CST)
 * Which is essentially unconditional. Whether in PvE or PvP, almost every foe will be targetable and have three energy.  Orison isn't even in contention; it gets beat out by everything, even other zero-condition heals.  Orison is among the least efficient heals in the game.  The upside is it has a low recharge and it's in healing.  --Fyren 14:58, 23 December 2006 (CST)
 * Actually, no, since you always rely on an enemy in range to heal yourself, which is pretty bad if you escape and you're dying from some sort of degen. Like, say, your party gets wiped and you're left on your own poisoned with low health. >< --Ufelder 15:08, 23 December 2006 (CST)
 * Yeah, this skill might be fairly good in PvE, but its one of the worst in PvP. The heal isn't enough to stop a spike, it activates so slowly that you are asking to be interrupted, and it has to target an enemy which is bad news for someone who is Suffering from degen or close to death.--Eetaq 02:38, 25 January 2007 (CST)
