Mend for Monks

This is the exact explanation I was heading towards in the patch notes thread: The client DOES reset the button but expects the server to send the okay for the button to remain grey or for it to be usable. What occurs on zoning in live is that the button does reset and will appear usable but as you zone your system makes the check against the server.. the UI catches up to it and therefore greys it out moments later, unless the Mend ability is actually available to use. In short: the client DOES get descynced. The SERVER corrects it by telling the client to grey out the button if Mend isn't available. Right now, the client is simply showing the Mend Ability as usable any time you zone because the server isn't correcting the UI for the actual 6 minute timer. As it stands, I feel the implementation is incomplete, because zoning over and over would allow you to mend and never have to waste any downtime to bind wound up to a measly 50%... it'd be quicker to camp in and out in a remote corner of a camp to reset mend. Right now, I'm skilling up Mend on a low level monk by zoning back and forth. | |||

Mend was hmm perfect before.
Ok, when you had used your mend and zoned the button would pop up but if you pressed it again, it would check the server and tell you "skill not available" something and it was resuming the cooldown where it was. (see previous post). Now, everytime you zone or camp, you can press one button for insta 25% life healed .. for free. Or just reset the cooldown, right after using mend. Please revert this change from Sat 30 patch, the timer should keep going as it was before, whatever you zone, camp out ... Thanks. | ||

Any comments on this?
Wouldn't it be possible to ping the server upon zoning to ask if mend should be up or not and resync the client? | ||

Imagine a monk getting caught in a bad spot and having to FD around mobs, normally they would have to stay FD until they regen enough to try to get somewhere safe. Now they just /q out while FD and FD/mend asap when they log in, repeating this if necessary. Also, who needs to bind wound to 70%(which they currently can for some reason) when you can zone to 100%. Heck...don't even need a fungi. I'm all for leaving it in too, but can you do the same for Harm Touch. I'd love to reset it by zoning. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
