Haven't had a chance to try this yet, but found out u can do HO setups in Macros.
For druid, type into the macro button
: ; NameOfHOStarter ; Smite : Chill
I forget what starts our HOs, just look on the button and get the name. Use the : and ;'s as indicated. w/ spaces.
Gonna see if I can try this in game tomorrow. It's supposed to be easier and cast the HO faster. If a fiz or interrupt, just recast the one manually that didn't go. GL
what you have above i am pretty sure won't work for you gnomes... you need to have "useability" in front of the 3 spells. example:
: ; useability HoStarter ; useability Smite ; useability Chill
thats what i've done and my HO macro works great... except when one of the spells fizzles or is resisted, then you have to manually finish it.
in regards to becoming a priest class i would say this. i have a 28 inquisitor and i absolutely love it. although its often a thankless job, you are definitely a needed member of any group and people will let you know that. plus, the inquisitor is one of the best solo classes in the game due to our ability to wear heavy armor (my AC at lvl 28 is 1680), tank/heal ourselves, and cast a multiple of damage dealing spells including DD's and DoT's to quickly dispatch our enemies.
i often play in a duo or trio w/ a few friends who play DPS classes and by using Forced Submission (lvl 20 debuff) i can hold agro through the entire battle ab out 80% of the time. it's nice to have this role switch every now and again and actually be able to be successful at it.
in summary: the priest classes in EQ 2 are much more soloable than in EQ 1. Inquisitors/Templars can wear heavy armor. Priests are an integral part of any group and you will always be wanted/needed (assuming you play smart).
have fun w/ your choice. regardless of which path you go i'm sure after not very long you will begin to appreciate your abilities as priest. i know i was quite pleasently surprised myself.
