What can a dancer do in the mean while?




I personally usually take this time to /cheer. *snicker*


No really, a Dancer/Medic/Scout would use the Medic during the fight. You do help the fighters' minds this way because you are keeping them from having to stim themselves.


Ent does not give you any in-fight aids or abilities, you are a downtime healer/buffer. The Scouts/Rangers are supposed to have in-fight use in traps and taunts, but most people would rather have you Medic Stimming (I do like traps though when people will let me use them, heh).


The mind wounds you will usually be healing between fights will be from mind diseases. Sometimes people die and have to be re-buffed. Silly was recommending static spawns because you can "set up base" at those places. The ones with good loot drops are all the better because groups will usually let you loot some and/or give you some fun stuff.


Just one more note, this template works best if you have a "support group"... a regular group you do hunt support for or a PA.

Interesting. What server are you on? I will admit that on my server (Intrepid), about the only time that traps get used is when someone is trying to master scout and needs to fill the boxes in the trapping tree. However, people still use camps quite a bit, so that they can heal and buff. If they ever changed the master ranger camp so that entertainers could heal battle fatigue in it (an idea we've tossed around from time to time), those camps would get used quite a bit.


Up until recently I know people were still using camo kits, especially on places like Yavin and Dathomir. I think they got screwed up somehow in a recent patch though?

Also it's not so hard to convince some of the folks you meet up with in the cantina to let you tag along on a group hunt. You'll have to be a bit forward about it because they,of course, are assuming you have no interest in such things.

Save your breath. You'll need it later to blow up your date.

On my server (Chimeara) Coronet is the place to be lfg. I took down my Mdancer tag and replaced it with my novice medic, and I had no problem getting into a group (hunting snaffs). The team was REALLY happy for my mind buff which I gave them as we arrived at the first mission. I had a blast, and I my scouting xp flied away as I harvested everything I came across (harvested hides to use for grinding ranger camps).

It was a terrific evening! I reccomend it.

PS! It would be even more usefull being dancer if we could heal mind damage and not only wounds! This is my personal priority wish for our profession, even though I dont know what other dancers really want.
