When will they stop nerfing mystic?

I've been playing Tera for 2 years as a mystic and I really hate seeing my class being nerfed all the time while priest (other healing class) keeps getting more n more bonuses..........
Recently my Vow got nerfed to 5mins with 7mins cd which means it doesn't protect anymore much (coz it means I should put it right before someone dies, and I'm not psychic to know when exactly someone will die), and priest got bonus of 5% CDR reduction for party........... really?
Other thing with suggested Awakening skills - mystic gets some [filtered] party teleport while priest is getting 3 new healing skills (out of which 2 are copied from my healing skills.......) REALLY???
I love mystic but I feel it gets more n more useless in this game and I feel forced to play priest which I hate or play other MMO :/

Cheers & Hugs for all who still pick in-making-useless-progress mystic <3

    I feel your pain. Sorc, too, has been nerfed so much. All we can do is keep playing the class we love, or switch to something else. All our pleas and cries fall into abysmally deaf ears.

    Holy sweet hell I can't even read this thread just the topic name makes me want to slam my head into a wall x.x

    Vow is not for me but for dps/tank. I can survive without Vow easily yet DPS play brainless most of time, they don't even know how to pick a mote. As for priests, on my server they aren't excuded from runs.

    I knew tht ppl playing priests speak here n b*tch at me coz they seem always to think tht they're worse no matter wht buffs n stuff they get. Every class is different n has its pros n cons, but I'm just sick of being nefred again n again

    Mystics is still meta lol. 5% cdr buff is not enough to compensate for the slightly higher attack speed, crit factor and additional endurance debuff via contagion, and priest still needs more effort to keep their endurance debuff up.

    Priest never got a vow. The nerf to vow is important as the old vow makes it too safe for the party to make mistakes.

    Awakening Priest will probably be useful for heal carry situations (something Awakening Mystic can also do anyway), and Mystic party damage numbers will still be higher.

    However much, with Priest being buffed and awakening coming round I hope RKE will finally have non-slaying runs, because honestly that is the one of the bigger factors why priest is still inferior by a huge margin.

    Tbh i dont feel mystics were nerfed tho i play it myself. Vow was just a very pleasant and valueable perk for group. Since this change ppl will have to be more attentive, learn class and mechs where before they could think that vow will carry them.

    p.s. You cant save all world (if it doesnt want to put effort into surviving.
  • Have to agree with @CornishRex
    i barely play priest but still aware from different people that it was infairly underpowered. In groups in IM many times i argued and declined kicks of priests initiated by mystic lovers. You know what? Stop derping and make two more piece of jewelry that you can use depending on healer.
    Mystic is cool but its unfair that priest always in the @ss.

    No need to worry about CH because it was the same on our lovely MT.

    You do not play mystic? Then GTFO! Nobody wants a garbage priest ( by the way, it is also very annoying as priest to lock on stars on some bosses sometimes having to miss the 100% up time and this gives mystic another small advantage: wish stars was not a lock on activation but at least a normal self buff that could reach the party ).

    Still, i am a priest player and i prefer the mystic because Jaunt.

    p.s. Vow is a another luxury

    *I'll jump the "me too!" train about AV, ye, no matter how dead you call it, they still find they are entitled to the luxury of not getting Priests in their runs. That was a while ago at least, have only been playing a bit of Gunner for now, there's at least some *hope* it got better.
    Quite a few LFGs I managed to enter after they literally gave up on finding a mystic and switched that "N> M" to "N> H".

    I main Priest but even the jewelry argument isn't enough to save them in the current meta. With a "Priest setup" I'm pretty sure (not 100%) that you still lose stats versus a "Mystic setup" but even if you don't, Mystic Contagion is enough for them to be preferred. The 5% CDR on EStars wasn't enough of a buff for people to want Priest.

    My Priest is in full SC9 but I just put a Mystic in full SC0 because...people don't want my Priest lol.

    @Pages forgot about contagion...true.
    but 5% debuff for boss isnt a reason for me to kick priest. Idc about dmg nerds.

    People should learn to be a human first and after their elins.
