I have 100 healing stoned atm, I am thinking of switching that in to save me some mana. Can you pre-heal? i.e. once you take a little damage press your bandage self macro and not move but keep firing to keep yourself fully healed or does the act of healing somehow mess up your damage output in some way you can't see.

Also I thought if you bandaged and move it decreases its effectiveness, is this correct?

I think I have decided on a build to go with for a while:

115 Anatomy
115 Archery
115 Tactics
100 Bushido
100 Resistance
100 Healing
75 Chivilry

The only thing I am not sure about is if I want to drop Bushido and insert Meditation. Also, I don't have the money to buy or skills to get 120 scrolls for any of my skill but are they even worth it for pve?

Yes, you can start a bandage any time you are not at max health. You can move/attack/cast spells and the healing will keep going. The only ways it gets interrupted is when you take heavy damage (30+ I think, could be 23+, been a while, and it adds a few seconds to the timer) or if you get mortaled, then you'll have to wait for that to wear off and re-apply a bandage.

I'd keep Bushido, but that's me. You can try stoning it and adding med and see how you like it though.

Glad you found it useful! Although a bit smug in tone (My butt has a higher IQ than I do at times!), it is my favorite piece I have written.

For the problems you list, confusion potion still seems to be the best answer (aside from healing). As does embracing honor. Man that is a LIFE saver.
