Cleric Spell: Desperate Renewal

[TruffleShuffle]

Here is the stats on Desperate Renewal:
3.0 cast time (1.6 with spell time decrease)
1375 mana cost
4935 hps healed
30 sec recast time

Here is the stats on Ancient: Hallowed Light:
3.8 cast time (2.1 with spell time decrease)
775 mana cost
4980 hps healed
2 sec recast time

Now I know this spell is not used to be an everyday heal, but it has double the mana cost (which is understandable, seeming as how its a quick lifesaver), but with only a half a second difference it's hardly even a save. Plus, it doesn't even heal as much as Hallowed Light. I am not sure what admins plan on doing to this, if anything at all, but I suggest either increasing the hps healed quite a bit, or decrease the casting time a bit so we can make this spell worth the 30 sec recast time and the double mana cost. The one spell I am looking for is a quick lifesaver when a groupmate takes a flurry for 80% of his health and I cannot get to him in time. Typically its just "cross your fingers and hope DI works" type of fighting.

Agreed, I have never once even memmed the spell, waste of mana.

The reason why the spells are the way they are is because in live the ancient spell was pretty rare unless you were in a raiding guild or somethin. Desperate Renewal was kinda a fill in for peeps that didn't get it.... or at least that's why imo. /grin

Hallowed Light and Desperate Renewal drop off of the same mobs though, same difficulty and all.

Desperate Renewal is a cure as well...which is why the recast is so high and why the mana is so high. It was never really intended to be used as *just* a heal.
