now this is strange lol ty raz for setting this thread up ^_^

with regard to playing like a blaster i refer to the attitude, every AT has a role in a team and although defenders have blasting powers they are not blasters they are defenders who support the team. yes they can blast and yes they can deal damage but when a defender joins a team are you telling me that they wil be expected to play like a blaster who is the most offensive AT in the game with both primary and secondary attacking powers as well as self buffs that enhance there dmg output and thus the general thing of a blaster is to do damage in my opnion and they are the best at it. the defender on the other hand is more based around helping its team mates attacks just are a nice addition i personally have a kin/psi that is both a support and attacker but i would never fool myself into believing that im a blaster.. because im not!! the priamry always come first which is what i meant when i said "your a healer (primary) not a blaster (secondary)!!" and "sure get attacks but dont start playing like a blaster (Archetype)" Is that explained enough for you?

jeez gang up on me why dont you i didnt say that all i said is personally i dont have attacks on my healer becuase personally i would rather be focussed on keeping the team alive/buffed than think about attacks along with using up slots in them that could be better used elsewhere.. I AM NOT HAVING A GO AT PEOPLE WHO HAVE ATTACKS I AM MERELY STATING A FACT I DONT HAVE ANY!! jeez now i know why i dont post on here very often (been registered since may 2004 when i got my own account). This thread is supposed to be about helping someone with there build not having a debate about healing and whether they should or shouldnt have attacks its meaningless and quite frankly i dont give a damm everyones build is different and everyone has a different experience/playstyle and as i have already stated MH has had attacks but i removed them found them a waste of power slot space and enhancement slots for the occasional use i got out of them . i instead due to restriction on pools have the entire fitness pool which gives me great movement and endurance/health regen and i have the entire leadership pool.. giving my team mates the best possible buffs i can give the only power i am missing that i would love to have is hasten. But like all of the pools its not essential. what makes the Empath road so fun is that everyone is different i have seen very few builds that are the same also how people slot the powers seems to vary as well but we all share a common thing we are there to support the team and keep them alive regardless of what powers you have or dont have as long as you are doing this the rest is meaningless because at the end of the day what matters is the simple question "Am i doing my job as an Empath/Healer?" whether its priamry or secondary (i have seen some bloody good empath trollers out there!!!)

lmao stand around doing nothing? how bout keeping CM on an entire team of 8 as well as fort on 3 team members along with the other buffs... been in very few teams that havent needed healing esp when its a team of 8 people when i had attacks (used to have 6 secondaries at one point) i hardly ever used them never had the time was to busy keeping the team alive and/or buffing
sure get attacks if you want but dont start playing like a blaster (i have seen this) and forgetting that your there to heal the team.. most teams ive been in would rather they were kept buffed and healed. but then having said that ive teamed with blaster heavy teams alot while i was lvling to 50 so im used to being in constant healing (hence why i talked about fitness in previous post) -
Excuse the late post
This is a thread about a supposedly "Pure Empath" (although personally I agree with Avalanche) but yet you have attacks? My Empath has tried having attacks but frankly I found it a waste of time ((I now have Mental Blast (no extra slots), Mass Hypnosis (epic), Mind over Body (epic) and Telekinesis (epic)). Youre not a blaster youre a healer!! Most annoying thing is the limit on 4 pool Sets!!! It really makes it difficult with choosing pools as there are quite a few useful powers: Recall friend, Hasten, Fitness, leadership, concealment (if its what you want personally I had it but respected it out back when they changed phase shift with the release of i5)and travel if you havent gone with SS or TP.
Its funny reading the arguments with regard to do healers need stamina or not, personally I wouldnt do without it but when your running 4 toggles (3 leadership, 1 epic psi) it makes sense and well if I had hasten without fitness (in order to get hasten in my build I would have to drop Recall Friend of Fitness Pool). I would not last long on the end front in some of the teams/battles I have been in... But I am not saying that its "needed" I just feel that having a power that pretty much means that your end doesnt go down to be a good thing (especially when it means you dont have to slot end red on the heals!!!) rather than having to carry Cabs/constantly paying attention to your endurance instead of healing/buffing the team (again my comment about attacks).
With regard to PvP there is a thing called a stalker it likes to sneak up and tactically kill the healer so being above the ground is like a lot of you seem to like doing in PvE (although personally I use fly in PvP (3 speed) and although I used to I no longer use Hover/Fly in PvE other than to get from a to b), In PvP the best defence a healer (well actually it could be applied to any non melee based characters) can have is being out of reach of grounded stalkers its only the flying or spines/claws (ranged attacks) ones that I have to watch for when I have been in PvP teams.
The best advice I can give you is stick with the primaries, what ever you choose with regard to travel or Pools dont let anyone else say its [censored] because if it works for you then theres nothing wrong with it and as long as youre keeping the team alive then everyones happy -
