-UPDATE FOUR OF MANY-
Did you really think I'd ignore the healer class? Meet Pyn, Disciple of Khaine.
First and foremost: Melee healers are kinda weird. So far it looks like they don't actually use
mana, but rather 'Soul Essence'. Healing and beneficial spells use Soul Essence, and damaging spells and melee attacks regain Soul Essence, which pretty much negates the idea of sitting in the back healing if you roll Disciple. That's all good and well and innovative and stuff, but what if some big bad boss has a huge Consecration-eque AOE attack?
It might be too soon to call, though, but it looks like Disciples heal with HOTs. I wonder if other healing classes (Goblin Shaman and the like) use direct heals, or if it's all HOTs.
Anyway, back to that screencap with the dragon. Got a nice-ass belt from it (and a crapton of Influence).
The Dark Elf starting area has this whole "pretty-buildings-crumbled-to-the-ground-decaying" atmosphere to it, kinda like the Ghostlands.
Oh yea, I've either died enough or reached a certain level or something with Gronogg; everytime I die now I get a penalty. Fortunately, there are these little Healer guys by most rally points who will take the debuff away if you pay them. I've had to pay 18 bronze so far, hopefully it'll stay that cheap.
