Group heal. Group HOTs.

I do see what you're saying, and I do agree with it. That said, without some decent direct damage from other sources, your AOE DOTs are simply going to be healed through with little effort.

Personally, I love running with a Magus on my Sorceress, because that AOE spirit resist debuff is fantastic and allows me to burn through people quicker. I feel the Magus is a good utility class.

Each point of damage must be healed out by someone or people will start dying. A healer may outheal the damage you deal to him, but that just means he won't be healing someone else. Without you doing damage to him he'd be more effective in holding the group. Get it? I really dk how to explain

Rolled magus - level 1. Wearing literally the starter gear.

Absolutely wrecked an entire patch of nurglings.. got paid for it too.

Just sayin - magus are fine. Stop the whine.

In fact, I've played 5 scenes and died 0 times, always in the top-3 of scene damagers. Maybe you get focused because you jump into the middle of an enemy melee train and try to aoe them down?

Getting top dmg in scs means jack ****.


I could spend an entire sc hammering on 1 healer but they just heal up all the dmg i do so i never kill them but in the sc board it could say i did 100k dmg, so as you can see sc dmg numbers are deciving and for magus spreading out aoe n dots its not hard to "have big dmg on the sc score board" but its all fluff dmg for now cause with all the healers ordo has the can eaisly deal with you.
