This Thing You Call Aggro.

Some of which (like summonings and healthstones you only need on there for convience since you will probably never do those in battle)[right][snapback]78596[/snapback][/right]

Small nit. Never say never. If I had the points, I'd put two into master conjurer for faster times I've made healthstones mid-battle. Summoned both people and pets mid-battle too, though pets more consistently than people.

I've had a few people do alchemy mid battle too.

When my priest/warrior screams I need a HS, I'll give it to them and create one for myself immediately. Even more hectic is when they scream for a Soulstone. That's two mid-battle casts, if I don't have a SS ready.

Sure, it is best when everyone's prepped and priest is readily soulstoned, but reality sets in and chaos happens. Both casting create and use soulstone on a target when they need it is vital.

Though I can honestly say I've never cast eye of kilrogg mid battle (battle occurred after I've returned from eye), with the rest of the listed thottbot skills, I've used them all mid-battle. Absolutely every skill was vital to have at my command. Even trash buffs like unending breath means yet another buff to be dispelled before my soul link comes down.

Ask me about when and why I use a skill, and I'll return with all the important details. Some are less obvious, or are weighed in a toss-up with other skills, but all have a place.

I use them all.
