Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first. - Mark Twain
If I join a BYOH, I'm prepared to heal myself when necessary, and if my character's soul stone makes an appearance then it ain't anyone elses fault (except maybe for the occasional griefer).
If there's a divine healer (or someone with repair for this life) who sees me killing stuff and decides things work better if I keep swinging sharp things around, then I'll take those heals and power ahead. Great!
If my toon gets low on HPs and there's no healer to be seen who is supposed to care about keeping him alive, he'll chug pots/whip wands while moving onto the next fight, or if brown smelly stuff hits whirling blades enough to make my character consider growing a tail and running home with said tail firmly stuck between his legs then I will somehow extract him from the fight to restore him back to good condition before returning to the fray.
I NEVER expect a healer to top my hps off (everyone should carry the means to do this!!!), but if the healer wants to, that's fine too. I'm considering having my WF carry around a CLW wand just to bring up the poor unfortunates who find themselves unconscious... of course, UMD is required for this for most classes.
Goe ahed... korekt mah spelin'.
If I join one of those I literally do bring my own healer lol. And no I aint taking the time to pull the puppet string and work miracles to make it do it's job. Hard enough getting the **** thing to heal me.
If it's a slayer situation I walk off on my own and let the rest fend for themselves.
I've never used soundburst and now lvl 5 with 3rd level spells. Is it worth using soundburst?
OP says you're a cleric, which means more than likely Wisdom is your primary stat, so the answer is a RESOUNDING yes. Soundburst is one of the best spells you can be casting at the moment. The small amount of damage isn't worthy, no. But the AoE stun effect is amazing.
Slot it. Use it. Love it. And the rest of the party will love it as well.
On my low level divines, Soundburst is almost literally the ONLY spell I ever cast besides opening buffs. And that includes cures, because you don't have any damage to heal if all of your enemies are always stunned.
