Just a thought...

Imagine a situation...

A R/N with Symbiosis and Well of the Profane (to stop enemies exploiting Symbiosis themselves).

A Monk or two with Infuse Health... and a LOT of enchants... meaning vast amounts of health potentially.... (maybe including other health-boost sources)... and thus Infuse Health could potential heal an absolutely obscene amount...

Am I totally barking up the wrong tree here... or could this actually work?

A ranger probably won't be able to cast well of the profane enough times, and enemies would simply move out of it. And infuse health's got 10e cost, which is higi ( yes i know that it can heal for thousands of health with simbyosos+enough ench, but remember that you lose half of your health also )
And if enemies kill simbiosis your build dies also...

Massive health is only good if you plan to tank. I have a W/R and with over 1000 health with 1 enchantment (from a guildie monk) I was able to take the beatings from Sorrows Furnace with ease.

Um, lol, what are you talking about. Unless you are using grenths balance, "tanking" is the only situation where massive health means nothing. Tanking is all about damage reduction. If you have none, those 2 seconds extra you survive with 2000 health instead of 550 aren't going to matter.

I did it pre-Factions, in Sorrow's Furnace. Holding the Gear, holding aggro with defenses + lots of health (yes, I put my spirits far away so I was getting the benefits and most of the enemies were not). We had no prot monks, but I never went past 75% of my max health, my group killed everything with easy (the best protection is when nothing is around to hurt you).

Massive hexes will kill a 550 character faster than a 2000 character.

Besides, we all know that damage prevention is better than healing over damage.

I can imagine trying that with Symbiosis and a load of enchants could kill a lot of things. ^_^
