Current iteration barely, just barely gets the job done. The energy drain is bad enough, but the root along with the channel just make this ability feel incredibly antiquated, especially in a high profile m+ environment.
Keep the name, keep the aesthetic, but please make it something more current and in line with other tanks “pulling” abilities.
only going to speak for Mistweaver spec.
There was a time long ago where it was comparable to other healer based ranged casting spells, smite, wrath, lightning bolt, in terms of damage for roughly the same amount of time. It was decent** for questing just basic things as well (very basic mind you). At some point however the damage was tuned way down to where it is now and feels very lackluster.
That all being said I would be favor of seeing the damage being brought back up to be comparable to other healer/casters for damage just for having some basic ranged damage like we used to as Mistweavers at range.
Its knock backs are used in RBG’s with the PVP talent. Dont make me tap the sign again
taps sign that reads “M+ is not the only content”
Crackling Jade Lightning’s purpose has always been to give monks a way to tag mobs via range. Every spec and class in the game has a way to tag mobs via range, mostly for questing purposes.
Ya that’s good point. Let’s keep an ability trash and borderline unusable for the 12 people barely managing to get over 50% WR in 10v10’s.
Just because you dont PVP does not mean only 12 people do
What if it could be redone. Keep the knockback but not channeling (shorter duration). Make it guaranteed knockback, higher damage.
Isn’t the knockback a sort of proc anyways?
That would be great.
It actually does.
Like what you spend 80 hours in pvp queues a week and that 1 brain cell that hasn’t ruptured somehow can’t entertain the idea that the pvp talent can keep the functionality as it currently is while also making the skill better? We’re in a realm of infinite hypotheticals and you’re jus “uhhh but I uhhh knock back pee vee pee in beegees”.
My lord.
Rough day at school champ?
Crackling jade tickle … I wish the emperor’s jade capacitor didn’t suck so bad 
Yes, we learned what happens to your cognitive functions when you post 2000+ times on the forums over the years.
Good luck.
Hopefully your next lession is “how to not get overly worked up over said forums”.
Be sure not to awkwardly spaz out on the teacher.
I’d say get a life, but you’re a last word Andy so you’ll be back.
I have a great life and it includes not being weirdly and unwarrently socially nasty to random people online. I seriously hope what ever is upsetting you this much to make you give these responses is resolved so you act better.
Its like a huge staple for pvp too
Well according to the OP literally only 12 people pvp lol
Between 3s 2s and RBGs and Shuffle id say its at least more then 13
I pvp quite a bit and it’s still bad. It has a use, but it would be nice if it did SOME damage. No other healer in this game is this limited when it comes to ranged damage in pvp.
It’s only useful if you’re the honor talent where the knock back is instant with thunder focus tea. IMO the honor talent is pretty bad since you need thunder focus tea mainly for instant enveloping mist or expel harm. So essentially it’s pretty useless and on top of that you can get kicked on it which is ridiculous.
