Greater Ruin and "mana dumping"

[Cetus]

you're doing nearly 4000 point crits multiple times on the red named mid way through, no helpless damage no resources used up. No skill needed, no targeting needed just standing in your self healing and getting passive barb healing.

You're saying walking through an EE quest solo on a melee needs no skill?

Lol

When they first did the paladin pass, this was true on a vanguard or KOTC pure pally. Mow through EE like butter.

People do mana dump with Ruin which is likely the reason why people are raising the issue now.

Just put a reasonable cooldown on Greater Ruin - done. Ruin is 15 seconds make Greater Ruin 25 seconds maybe.

I would suggest Greater Ruin having a 60 second cool down for the sake of balance. It is a very hard hitting spell...

I think your suggestion is really good. There is still a lot of thinking in D&D logic, where spells are really valuable and shouldn't be spammed. but in DDO, the value of a spell is much closer to the value of the swing of a sword.

Thanks, I think we share that view.

Anyway, this is a problem only affecting epic stuff; I love how they are working at heroic content and possibly I'm getting another bunch of wiz/sorc lives (lvls 1-20) in the majority of my active toons (:
