At 60th Hymn will heal 22/tick with a store bought lute, as will Niv's.

Weaving the two gives ya 44/tick. So yes we need a new healing song that
will stack with the these two. My song suggestion would give you 88/tick
with a standard lute (@60th). That may not be enough :)

70 hp / tick when mobs can hit in the multiple hundreds?

I can heal for roughly mid 30s in lguk and things hit for 100.
That's a third of the damage being done just in healing.

I would hope I could stick to that ratio, and heal 100 per tick
when mobs can do 300-400 dmg per swing.

You are not thinking ahead, you are stuck in this shell of a
broken game in the current state. Thing are going to change.
Our songs have to be excellent at L60 versus L63 NPCs. No one
is thinking down that path yet. And it's even hard for me to.

+75 STR, and you're like OMG, that's too much.

-or-

+100 AC, *nothing* gives that much you think... well at L60
maybe it should.

Maybe we should heal 150 per tick with a +50 AC shield, I mean
when was the last L53+ mob you encountered without bringing
24+ people. We're gonna have to fight L53+ mobs in groups of
six people, just like you fight L45 mobs in groups of six.

Harmonic.
