Bone Shield & Mystic Orb

SO this undaunted skill looks so good for trials/DSA as it gives the rest of the group a big damage shield. But I haven't seen it used in any trail run yet. Does any raid group regularly use Bone Shield?

Mystic Orb on the other hand looks kind of underwhelming - the damage is soooo low. I tried it once and gave up soon after. Anyone finds it useful?

Mystic Orb is used for the group magicka restore, not for its damage.

Bone Shield's problem is it only shields up to 4 allies, whereas in trials you have 11 allies. In DSA it simply isn't necessary.

The Energy Orb does get used, it's the healing morph of the Mystic Orb which can do pretty high amounts of healing and restore of magicka.

Bone Shield does get used sometimes, but mostly when let's say a group gotta part from the group. It's a little support a tank could give to a few, but no dps should be using it. The reason I don't use it, is that it's pretty costly since it only last 4 seconds. That's not really long, but it could be a good skill to run in the boss and obsorb damage from a big hit you know that's coming. But that's kind of the tank's choice.

OK thanks for sharing! Guess I will put Bone Shields & Mystic Orb away for awhile.
