Highly indecisive

Whatever you choose, never queue for support in group dungeons. Dumb idiots will never use block and sit in boss AoEs and then blame you for their pathetic ass dying.

Wand/Staff is S tier, you can kind of switch on the fly depending on the content. If you do Q as a healer please actually heal not dps, this game has a major issues with tanks and healers Q-ing for the specs they don't play.

i play Staff / Wand as an DPS and its realy fun, i have great damage and i am tanky thanks to the heals, also the debuffs from wand are great .

Staff / wand player we get infinite mana and i feel like massive aoe dmg and single target too. I'm curious if the bow / wand players struggle on mana and feel like they have high damage or not.

i have 1 level 50 character wand/bow, the damage is offputting... everything i do is slow , i cant even get past the taedal tower 11F , also starting to see mana issues in prolonged "boss" fights like the lycan boss at the level 50 zone

If you go wand staff you only have 2 heal abilities. Then 2 support abilities. This is the kind of ignorance you have to deal with as a support in this game, which is why I would heavily recommend nobody queueing up as support for coop dungeons.

If you do wand/bow I think it adds like another heal and support ability. But that still leaves you with lots of abilities and mana to do damage instead of playing as a healbot like this genius would have you do. He's not alone in being ignorant of how little healing there is available in this game. People like him will sit in boss AoEs and never block and die to boss mechanics and then scapegoat the healer for their own incompetence. It's so pitiful.

I play wand/bow as main and wand/staff as twink and it's pretty straight forward.
wand/staff does more damage and has endless mana regen.
wand/bow has more heals and a better toolkit for 3v3 arena in my opinion.
For content like AOE pulling and nuking mobs for contracts or gate of infinity both are fast and easy.
I got no problems with both but for a worse geared twink wand/staff is easier.
