And yeah I have seen a Posion A with 300 effectivness (with VERY high venom), though this is very rare. Tsu posted one that was 400+. These are not the norm though. Janta Blood can be picked up at ~20k each on my server. I have lots of the stuff laying around in piles of 2 (too few to sell with buffs).

Currently you can heal mind about 6 times before you have over 300 wounds to mind/focus/willpower. So, 6 heals gives you about 300 wounds, then add in the factor of wearing heavy composite to stay alivewith its heavy mind encumbrance.Everyone keeps bringing up CM's can heal mind, but I hate to heal mind with the penalty I have. You really must limit yourself healing mind or if you try to use any CM/MD healing skill and it will eat up 3 times as much mind.

With the correct buffing those wounds you get are completely and utterly negated. You have a way to completely negate the problems from mindheal, I never had a problem using it when I was fully buffed. The only problem you run into is battlefatigue lowering the strength of the mind heal.
bf and the end of your mind buffs both have an effect. you can get by it with food to an extent, but black mind rot does have a significant effect.
and getting a music/dance mind buff seems harder lately... are all the musicians and dancers leaving, too?

So your saying your too lazy to go find the buffs to negate it.. the irony is killing me. And whens the last time you fought PVP or high end PVE unbuffed? Does it take a little bit extra to make it useful? Yes. Is it do-able? Yup
I do go get mind buffs and use food of course... But you try to heal mind pvp fighting with your friends or against PVE in the DWB or Corvette. You can do about 10 or so before the toll of healing mind starts to take you out. Also, I have never done complete mind heals as some say as other players mind pools are about 3k and I can heal for about 800 or so?
If your food fades and your stomach is full then you have 300 or so wounds and you have about 200 will power? It really starts to suck then. I am at work and not able to look at my armor stats... But I know willpower and focus get super low when food goes and there is mind wounds from healing mind.

Your stomach shouldnt be full when you go to take more food unless you've died if it is you arent stacking food correctly... And with full mind wounds I could still heal and it would cost me about 5 mind total to use...which is regened pretty much instantly. I know several guilds that have dedicated mind buffers your guilds can just as easily get one also. It takes about 4-5 minutes total if you use food and have people doing the seperate types of buffs and using the food that reduces the time it takes. And ya can do it to the whole group at once at that... Buffing an entire group takes about that much time.. Complaining about the availability of getting the buffs is ubsurd, espically from the "So bring a doc!" crowd. I think it would be fair to say: So bring an entertainer
i am not sure i fully understand your point, but i use food, and that does help.obtaining mind buffs (that is to say, dancer and musician mind enhancements) can be difficult if you do not have access to a buff bot. and it does take longer to get, and not last as long, as doctor buffs. i think the minimum time to do a three stat mind buff is 6 mins 40 sec, not counting any pauses between or time spent getting in group with the entertainer.
i was not actually complaining: i have had more difficulty finding dancers and musicians who are actually in game doing mind buffs lately, which is how i prefer to get buffed. sometimes, failing that, you can find a public buff bot, but not always.

You can still heal with full mind wounds costing you 5 mind total? I guess you're not wearing any armor. My encumbrance on my armor total is 949 on mind the suit is 80%+ *thanks nice slices!* with 38% stun. As a zabrak I have 1000 mind 500 focus and 900 willpower. Automatically I am -51 willpower just equiping my armor and -451 focus.
I use brandy at +431 49 filling for 43 mins, also I use canape at +609 at 30 filling
So 1 brandy = -20 to focus 2 puts me at +411 focus and +811 willpower.
Now the canape helps out a load but only lasts 11 minutes... So a short burst of super mind and I am out. I can't complain when the canape is active but I am speaking of the over all healing while hunting and having mind wounds/BF. I guess you can have a cost of 5 with max wounds if you are a human with all stats into mind. Doesn't work like that for me though
Yes, dancer/musician buffs are nice but most of the time hard to come by.
Two Brandy: +862 focus (40+ min)
Three Ahrisa: +1221 focus (40+ min)
Total: +2583 Focus
Thats for a Zabrak.

duh
not lazy, but it is harder to find a mind buff than a doc buff, and it takes longer to get it if you can find a person on doing them (i don't own a buff bot). and the effect is shorter duration. so while i do try to get them when i can, it is not always feasible, and when it is, it adds a lot of time to getting ready for your mission or raid.
