Should I use magic shield during party hunt as a druid?

Question

Hi all, new here ! ; )

I'm just wondering if I should be hunting with or without magic shield as a druid during a party hunt ?

My team mates tell me that we make lower profit because I am on magic shield , I get that, been playing tibia a long time but they are all higher level and don't need to worry about keeping others alive, while doing everything else every other profession does.
I hunt without magic shield during solo hunts but I'm not sure if I'm able to do the same during a party hunt when you see nothing but chaos on your screen such as prison.

How do I know when I'm ready to play without magic shield during a hunt like prison -4 or something ?

Doesn't it mess up with my heals then if I need to self heal and heal the knight ?

How do other druids usually play now with the reworked mana shield ?

Comments

my advice is:

1- rework this question "How do other druids usually play now with the reworked mana shield ?" to something less opinion based, something like "what are good practices on..." or "what i must take into account when.." that way ppl could fit all their experience in just 1 answer that could summarize the keypoints of them rather than several opinions..

2- if were possible you could also detail a bit more your concernings due the lack of mana shield and how to deal with them (example you talked about the chaos and pollution while teamhunting, if your secondary questions were more focused on how to deal those troubles you would obtain more solutions), said in other words, turn the question less broad and less opinion based focusing into the main question (in this case could be if is worth using magic shield permanently while th) to add more seriousnesss into the trouble.

oh! i almost forget it, welcome to TibiaQA Community.

It all depends on many factors.

It is all about you and your skills. All you have to do is training and dying. If you will take lesson from every death you become stronger, but if you won't even try and you gonna only cry. Then you can't reach another level of playing.

You have to notice all things around as Druid. Watch how your Knight getting damage and you need calculate in mind if healing yourself will have any big impact to his survaility. If he is dying use Magic Shield and heal your Knight/Paladin. Keep in mind you can come to Knight a bit on Magic shield and Exura Gran Mas Res if you are missing some Healpoints and you choose using Magic Shield instead of Exura Vita to heal your teammates.

I can't tell you how everyone plays, but in my opinion many druids will agree with what I wrote. :>

i'm sorry but i have to downvote this answer due it have many things that i disagree:

First, doesn't actually answer the question, is like you said everything that he should know but u don't actually answer him what he asked.

Second, this isn't a place for opinion, but answer that suffice the question, if you "think" that he is crying is YOUR OPINION, if he made this question is because he actually need the answer, he don't need you being rude for no reason.

Third, you missed the whole point of the question, lets say someone is new to the game and come here trying to know when to stop or how stop using mana shield and focusing in all what happens in the screen (which is probably the most challenging vocation in a team hunt), then he open this looking for tips to improve, but he end facing a scold-for-free with basically nothing to contribute on how to improve beyond a "die and learn", weren't weird if that person doesn't come here anymore.

nothing personal, but i think you must read again the rules and aim of this page, rather than being a forum: "The site aims to build a knowledge base for the Tibian community.", that said i recommend you working on that answer to provide more helpful information, not only due the question owner but for everyone who come here trying to learn something.
