Problems with strife.

Strife strong point was that it granted the passive 8% max magicka by slotting a siphoner ability, the fact that it was low cost, and that it granted some ultimate, but overall it was weaker then force pulse which by slotting it you gain 8% st or aoe, + status effects+ 3 separate procs, now you made it even weaker by increasing the cost, there is now no incentive to use this ability over force pulse, please revert or make it stronger to match the ability cost.

    The skill should have a clearly damage oriented morph (remove the one with minor buff to heal in order to add direct or indirect damage component, while moving the minor buff to an another skill for tank and solo players) and a healer morph (reduced damage, one more target healed and/or minor heal received buff added).
    Strife need a strong identity, the cost was one of his core design along with the life steal component.

    Yeah there is little to no reason to use strife over force-pulse

    The cost increase was too much. From 1800 to 2700? What were they thinking?
    Incresing it to 2300-2400 would have been enough.
    Funny thing is, this won't decrease magblade DPS. DPS will just move to Force Pulse and asylum staff. This will just hurt nightblade tanks and healers

    We are not talking about dk, and that is a dot, not a spammable, dk overall cost is already high, no need to increase it further.

    What this really hurts are SOLO players who need both heal AND damage!

    DK is also already incredibly strong. Strife shouldn't be hit for the same reasons burning embers shouldn't
