Water-lore uses alot of Power. How to effectively use it?

[Saephellar]

Hi everyone I just reached lvl 77 with a great surprise I got a new skill and it a HEALING one it's called Water-lore. I believe it's the last skill I learn and thought all skills by lvl 75 were learned because the mounted skills are then learned anyways.. this skill is really nice because i can use it on MYSELF and do it 3 times with it's HoT effect, I rarely die now! There is a slight problem though, I noticed that when I use this skill in combat my power is actually draining fast. As a LM I never had problems with my power going out in battle until this skill, anyone know how to effectively use Water-lore without it plummeting my power?

Are you aware of the Power of Knowledge skill? It is a channeled skill that restores a good amount of power while doing decent lightning damage to one target.

There's also power potions. Or eat some food for faster power recovery. Could add some fate gear, I think that improves power recovery too. Or stun/daze whatever you're fighting to buy time to recover.

If you are taking a lot of damage you want to adjust your play style. You have several crowd control skills to help you control the battle.

One way of recovering power is to summon your eagle. This is the fellow buff, Nobility. IE: hit the target with burning embers and then have your eagle hit with fan the flames. The enemy runs away allowing you time to heal power and moral. As the enemy returns summon your bear and use it's roaring challenge to take aggro. Move to a safer cast-able distance and resume the fight. Swap pets as needed for buffs and debuffs.
