The Role of Melee Combatants in a Group

[Tal]

But MAN, that was close.  I ran out of mana shielding/healing you, and stopped to drink.  Lissa was then able to keep you alive long enough for me to get back to full mana, and then he stopped to drink.  It took two Priests' full mana bars to keep you alive.  That guy is tough stuff.  :)  Still, it worked like a charm!

Hehehe. No worries. I still had divine favor to heal myself with and a couple of greater heals. :)

It does show what a difference a warrior makes.  A natural party leader, the warrior can handle the pulls, aggro, you name it - concentrating its full attention on the creeps, and having faith that his/her teammates will do the necessary healing.  The others can do the nuking, but when it comes down to it, guess who the others are going to send in first to fight the big boss?  That's right.  :)

Yar. I wish I had levelled Shalandrax up more than Sharanna and probably would have if I had known I was going to be tanking so often.
