Harmony Therapy, WHO DOES IT WORK ON?

Hey, just wondering coz im only lvl 36 and lazy and never bothered to stake out a unique,

Are they affected by harmony therapy?

Are the mobs affected?

Ever done a trade run and done Harmony Therapy and the NPC thiefs just stroll around?

Can it offer any protection in PvP? Im guessing no...

Is it really that great a skill? Like in general what would you say, might just poll it, but u can explain ur reasons :)

anyways
thanks

It's looking nice
But it doesn't block champs or giants in spite of the lvl limit of your HT
so no going to get a drink even tho you're sitting in a harmony therapy

Here's the only reason I'm going to say it's rubbish: lvl 90 cap.

Force is completely worthless, EVEN if we get the new skills at the 90 cap... Find me a build at the 90 cap that's decently balanced that includes 90 force. You'll always have to give up something nice [ie... light or fire force]. They only way in which I could see this working would probably be a pure int with just 90 light, 90 bicheon, and 90 force. You'd miss out on a lot of nice buffs from fire but atleast you can still function.

As for the circle itself...
-It blocks npc thieves and regular mobs
-It will not prevent players, uniques, monster scroll mobs, champions, giants, or elites from attacking you.
-If you attack a mob whilst standing a circle, it will also attack you.

The only situations I see the circle being useful in is in trade runs [somebody needs to pick up their goods after their camel died, but they can't be engaged in a fight for 20 seconds. Pop up the circle ^^], and for pure str bows in heavily crowded areas like the cave.

another good use for the circle is when you're fighting say...an orange giant. Stops you from getting mobbed by the normal mobs.

What if later force included HP and MP buffs? It will also give pt heal in future patches.

But trust me...clerics are the one of the best class to play for pvp...it's true. You have a def buff + immunity shield + mag&phys damage shield + absolute damage spell, AND if needed a AoE the does about 233-345 (976%!!!!!!!!) but it takes health down.(in euro this babe hit's around 10-19k ,on a mob when you first get it)

1 book prevents monsters lvl 33 and down , that how the book works .

itz extremely good if ur gona make a account that skills bots .

it's good for a force build, i wouldn't bother with it otherwise.

It use to be EXTREMELY good.

It use to go like this. If u attack a monster within the circle, the monster wouldn't attack you back. This meant that u could grind on higher lvl mobs and not take any damage * assuming that they are within the lvl that gets warded*.

But then the patch came and they changed that. So now pretty much the skill isnt as useful as it use to be. IMO at 90 cap a force build is going to be very...weak. Unless they add in some buffs or give force an imbue or actually fix the bug with the vital spot / other spot * dont remember the name*.

Force is one of those selfless builds. If you are that kind of person, you arent gonna miss not being able to PVP, cause you would rather help ppl. I have a spear/force/light char on Xian, pure int. Its great for trade runs and job wars. I can keep nearly anyone alive, even 10 v 1 with that heal and a circle.

Well I am working on a pure str blader and full healer, just for fun..and may be later to help in guild war/ castle war/ party etc. I had to sacrifice fire coz I need the grass/thantom walk. So I got light and force. For 90 cap I am going with 90 blade /90 light /90 force...so far I have not found any use of harmony circle..

Not to long ago we had a HUGE Blackhand traderun

3or more 5 star traders.....

When you cross those ferries, just standing there with no circle the trades get raped lol, but we had a circle =]

Sure is a useless tree unless like nightbloom said you wanna do it on a character that's not your main one, you wouldn't really want it as a main tree especially with the new skills. It'd be nice to help everyone though, be able to res everyone, how many times are you thanked though, most of the time they get up and run off or they ask for gold, toss em 50k and instead of saying thankyou they'll ask for another 50k.

Useful tree if you like helping people out a lot.

i don't know if u ever used theraphy at guild wars or etc..
it's so useful in these conditions. request someone to open the highest theraphy, stay in it, don't get outside. your HP and MP will fill fast.
may be it's a few increase but i tried it so many times and success at it..

and also, find a healer :P

Did you make it str or int zypher? The skills are nice, must be hard to pvp with though or are you just the guild medic?

if you know how to play you can use force the pvp and play great with

sad thing is everyone is based on 1v1 foot to foot pvp, if you realise you can last longer and have a better fight if you move about then your gona do great in pvp

but stil even if you know how to pvp properly force is stil really weak but as i said it can be used in pvp

pure str, it was glaive but i spent 100 dollars to delvl and get bow
although pure int nukers lvl faster to be able to heal and stuff, i think a pure str char is better because they can take some hits in wars, where alot of nukers couldnt
