 Spirit healer was the best specialization for mages in DA:O, drastically increasing surviability for the team. However, Bioware totally gimped it in DA 2. Unless Hawke was an spirit healer, you would need to rely on Anders on that role. And it was completely impratical combat wise. Activating his healing aura cuts off his abilities to use offensive spells and cut down his mana bar by half. And it was barelly worth it since you literally needs to hug Anders in order for it to work, and the healing rate is extremelly slow. 

So can we please have an spirit healer that is more pratical in Inquisition?

I don't agree that Spirit Healer was the best specialization for Mages in DA:. I MUCH preferred Arcane Warrior for my Mage Warden. Only Wynne was a Spirit Healer in my play throughs and she actually used very few of the Spirit Healer talents as I felt the normal healing talents worked better. That is when I brought her along at all.

I do plan on making my inquisitor a spirit healer. However, I really hopen they amp up the "spirit calling" feel of it instead of being a heal bot.

Like being able to summon spirits to buff and protect. Something of that nature.

Maybe increasing spirit school damage by 20% but you can only use that school offensively.

Blood mage was far, far more broken in DA:O than SM. IMO, SM was just useful as a second specialization behind BM to make your mage PC an unstoppable casting machine.

More pertinent question: what if there was no mage specializing in healing, period? Or, better yet, what if the system was set up so that having a mage specializing in healing wasn't an absolute requirement?

Just throwing that out there.

I'd be fine with that, but only because I intend to abuse the hell out of those fire and ice attacks.

I could get behind this! Would certainly shake up the normal mage skills!

Reworking of mage spell schools/ability trees ... CONFIRMED!

I found playing a healer in DA2 to be very dull. I don't think I was overly fond of it in DAO either, but it's been a while since I've played. The only time I played my PC in combat was whenever I could heal someone, and even that was rare. How is that supposed to be fun?

The only thing worse than being a healer in SRPG is being a healer in a MRPG or MMORPG, where people are constantly ****ing that you didn't heal them fast enough or well enough.

I'm like, OK, but you DID see you were stepping into the giant lava mountain of death before you screamed "heal me" right? 

Never play healers as a result. :innocent:

In my experience, it's always the tanks fault followed by healer.  Never the DPS.

You do know that's a joke on MMO player mentality, right?

Yeah, it's much better to just have Wynne/Bethany/Anders around to provide the healing powers than to be one yourself. Besides, the mage's offensive capabilities are too good to pass up for the Warden or Hawke if you choose that class.

Yes and no. If someone dies, regardless of how stupid or idiotic they've been, it is the healer's fault.
If everyone dies the tank is at fault.
The DPS never do anything wrong because there are no such thing as poor DPS .. apparently.

I could really get behind that.

On a more serious note: All hail David Gaider.

Except that, were such a thing to happen, I would not be involved at all. That would be the Combat Designers.

And I'm not saying such a thing is definitely happening. I am, however, suggesting that when one asks questions one should not assume that the basis behind that question is definitely remaining as it was in DA2.

[Naesaki]

That only raises more questions Mr Gaider the wait for this game is horrible....Bioware just had to go and craft a game world that ends up being one of my favourites of all time >___<

You are in rare form today, sir. Curse you and your intentional vagueness!!!

Yeah.

You don't have to pass them up, you can still make a damage dealer hybrid that's capable of doing massive amounts of damage depending on your builds. It's one of the better mage specializations in DAO, it was alright in DA2 and helped me in a lot situations like the duel with the arishok, and many many others. Never really found arcane warrioror shape shiffter all that useful and usually just used them as a place holder if I kept my warden alive. 

I either play as a hybrid or a pure damage, with Morrigan using some healing spells due to the tomes or use wynne or don't use one at all, if there isn't a healing specialization ( not sure)  that's fine but there's some type of healing spells in DAI since Laidlaw already mentioned some briefly and said that one heals injuries, wish they would give out more info though i'd be fine with the latter approach if that might or might not be where they're heading.

Well, when the devs confirm that health regeneration and healing potions are more limited then before, an healing focused specialization sounds more vital then ever.
