Energy Stars (Priest) and Aura of Merciless (Mystic)

    Hey,
    after the last big patch the mystics´ Aura of Merciless was increased with power and atk speed attributes. Is it true that:
    if Priest is buffing with Energy Stars, then Mystics´ Aura of Merciless doesn´t count anymore as a "high enough" buff and will be indirect canceled in calculation? So Priest mustn´t use Energy Stars while being in same party as a Mystic is within (f.e. VHHM/AIHM)?


    If you don´t know what I mean:


    The same situation was considered in an older patch with Mystics 8k Shield (Totem), which over buffed Priests´ Kaias Shield (40k). But it was patched nowadays.



    If this is true, Priest now stands around a lot of a boss fight only?^^
    The Priest has 3 things to "spam"/take on cooldown : Energy stars, Triple Nemesis, Restorative Burst (mana) and Mana charge as needed in different situation. Yes the lock-on / prefer heal, but its not for support what I mean, even if you´re in lock-on mode you do nothing in this situations, so TN, ES and RB are good fillers for only "standing/running" around.


    The Mystics more the "running/standing" type. Volley of Curses has 21 seconds as a debuff to the boss (Priest 12 seconds). Contagion in every boss fight only 1 or 2 times (depending on dps of party), and in between Ring of Corruption for mana as needed and Totem could be every 18-21 seconds on cd or as needed. Moles aren´t neccasary in a good party, but if Mystic s boring he could also spam the moles ^^.



    Same situation goes to Endurance debuff to the boss.
    Mystic and Priest now both have 10%, Priest 12 sec. Mystic 21 sec. If Mystics´debuff is first on the boss and after that Priests´can over buff Mystics one. But in a party where both healer could make an arrangement for a more chilling run. Mystic would debuff only (21 sec. time) and Priest would stand half afk ö.Ö

    Edited once, last by Ayame ().

    Normally, you don't run double support these days. But yes...with increase of mystic support they kinda ruined benefits of priest...
    And things will even get worse if they nerf ress cd. Bluehole is doing things right but caused by lack of talent system in EU these nerfs here will be shit...

    In terms of power and ASpd, Energy star and Mystic's aura is the same. Both are 48 power and 9.6 attack speed.


    It doesn't matter if Priest uses it: it's consistent for 25 seconds whoever was in range when the skill was cast. However Mystic's aura is only there if you're within 30m.


    The only problem I can imagine with energy star is the fact that without 100% upkeep there's a small delay before mystic power buff reapplies (we're talking about ~0.1 - 0.5 seconds).
