But last thing I want is a RAD defender with Psi powers.. would be going 99% Psi based, maybe "Radiant Aura" and "Accelerated Metabolism", the rest, Psi or Power Pool.
[/ QUOTE ]You'll want EF to do damage, RI to stay alive, Propably LR too.

No. What he means is don't hang around like a coward at the back. Get in the thick of things so Healing Aura actually heals the people in melee.

Yes great, you have no mezz protection and low hp, jump in the way of aoes, cones and pbaoes of any type of effect and end up going through break frees or dead for no reason at all. People could play in a manner that the low heal, heal aura is never even needed of course. Empaths can get to 50 with a good reputation of keeping the team alive and blasting without so much as needing to use heal aura.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
Get to 50 without using Heal Aura? That's really impressive for those that have, but that would make your job unnecessarily harder?
Mystie's a pure Empath. Not sure if it's been mentioned, but take Stealth, wander into a mob after the tank or scrapper or more often then not, suicidal blaster 
and auto cycle heal aura. Keep attacks to a minimum, or in most cases not at all (you are a pure Empath after all) and you'll never get touched 
...Illusionists using Flash, or mass mezzes in PvE can be 'Broken Free' that's why we have 1 million* inspiration slots
Oh and it's not a reccomendation, but I kinda left out Absorb Pain on my last respec a while ago... and I haven't really missed it. Never used it much anyway. Don't have hasten, and have Heal Aura and Heal Other slotted with 3 recharge times each. Works fine But... I am level 50 and have slotted them all with SOs 
*No over estimate, honest. True Story...

So you magically break game mechanics and never get hit by a cone, pbaoe or aoe? OR direction of fire is always away from the rest of the team which can be made possible too OR the control skills of somebody is piping hot. The never having to use heal aura thing is theoretically possible. I also believe that if you were expected to mix it up in melee range you would have mezz protection and/or defence and/or blapper skills although hover is widely liked. I flyby cusp heal aura too minimise my time in melee but most of the time i never need to use it and i do think it can be made possible with the right player interaction to not need to be.

Oooo I was quoted! Put away those claws! We're all defenders here! We need to stick together!
Never said it was impossible, just why make you job harder by not using it? x
Cones, PBAoE and AoEs?... that's why I added the 'break free' comment
i have a habit of hitting quote these days, i dont know why, you could of wrote "hello" and it would of looked like this:

hello

hi!:P
Back on topic,
Someone could say "i do this, this and this" and it may work for them but other people adopting the same tactic may get defeated because whats unknown is why it works for the person who said it. So i just mentioned my other possible expectations of it.

With one recharge slotted, it recharges faster than the activation time. Any extra slots are a waste.
[/ QUOTE ]not technically, since the recharge perioid only starts after the activation time has finished.

yes and the difference in time is seen over 8 ppl better than 2 ppl plus i actually prefer it cos im an impatient person when it comes to what i want done.
If someone wants to make a psi blaster they can do so, being a far from the norm toon if an emp may surprise ppl so it may help to let ppl know so they dont go runnin in and teamwipe before finding out is all. Most other defender sets are less reactive so offensiveness is easier to achieve.
