Am I the only one?

That rarely ever uses either energy drain or mp recovery, and won't miss them at all after the revamp? I look forward to having a passive recovery skill, and overall can't wait for the revamp.

the only reason energy drain got removed it was cuz of the pro charge we get after revamp would of been to good.

I never use MP recovery. I don't think I have it hotkeyed anymore. But I always use Drain when energy is up. It fills up my HP almost as quick as a regular pot and does damage. However, in dojo/zak energy rarely charges so I'd prefer a passive heal incase you get 1/1'd and you have enough HP to survive a hit.

I use both all the time. Drain of course only when needed/energy is charged. Mp Recovery, as much as possible. Never run out of mp

Having just over 15400 HP, the new HP/MP recovery skill will only heal 780ish HP and around 250 MP every 5 seconds.. That's not better than Energy Drain + MP recovery at all (Hell, currently, I get 1540 or so MP every 10 seconds with MP Recovery). The only time it'll help during seduce is if you have a TON of avoid somehow and never get hit. In which case, you won't have to worry about HP/MP recovery at all.

I won't miss them too.
CONSTANT 5% HP/MP healing>Energy Drain + MP Recovery
This means I can own dojo with my bucc when the revamp comes.

@1CrazyCleri: Yep, agree. It's going to take some time getting used to not having a HP recovering ability on my keyboard (will probably die a couple of times trying to recover using drain lol)

[quote=1CrazyCleric]Using drain and mp recovery is like...second nature to me now? Idk, I was never TOO happy with them being removed since it was one of my favorite things about my buccaneer, the fact that I could survive with pretty much no pots as well. I really never had any problem with getting back into energy charge before I needed hp, and with hb, I'm at almost 19k hp. Which is also a large help because it recovers a bigger portion of my MP. Heck, MP Recov helped me so much and recovers enough MP that I barely even noticed that the skill still has a cool down. But since they're being removed, I can't really complain about the passive HP recovery. It'll help against bosses that 1/1 and seduce I suppose.[/quote]

True, forgot that it would REALLY help with seduce lol

I use them quite a lot at LHC and grinding in general because energy is easy to charge with DS hitting a full 6 mobs. Then I just used MP Recovery every 10 seconds -> drain back lost HP

I used to use them A LOT, but once I got to higher level monsters I just stuck to pots. As Kreyni said, drain is only accessible after your energy is fully charged, so that's a hassle. MP Recovery is pretty useful though for me.
