Mentalist

Mentalist

Mentalists are pure casters with the ability to heal their realm-mates and control the minds of their enemies. Much like the other casters of Hibernia, the Mentalist researches and studies the ways of nature's magic through the Sun, the Moon, and Mentalism.

Their training in Mentalism provides them with crowd controlling spell elements, which prove very useful when in the frontier. Their minor healing abilities make them wonderful backup healers. In addition to the offensive power granted to Mentalists by their pets (which they get by charming monsters), they also have damaging spells, some with helpful secondary affects.

Tactics

PVE

The mentalist has three main functions in Player versus Enemy scenarios. The first is damaging, either from the specialized casts they obtain through training or by leveling or through the services of a charmed pet. When leveling solo, it is a good idea to abandon the pet (light spec line) in favour of the Mana or Way of the Moon spec line. This allows the mentalist to execute highly potent Damage over Time spells (DoTs), as well has cast Heal over Time (HoTs) and also enable high power regeneration through power regeneration spells.

The second function of Mentalists during PvE (in a group scenario) is to use the power regeneration spells on each member of the group. This allows the group to perform more actions during the encounter. Additionally, Mentalists may also confuse monsters when the pull is too large (Which may allow monsters to fight themselves instead of the players).

The final function of the Mentalist in player versus enemy is either the Healing or the Healing over Time of allies. This allows mentalists to be substitutes for when a group does not have a healing class. It also allows the mentalist to fight more monsters quicker (Regeneration of both health and power).
