Re: [HOE] Sykers and healing [Hopler]

I agree. My syker has 5d12 blastin and the only time I have problems using
fleshknit is:
1)by the time I have the time it takes (ie out of combat) to use the power, I am
out of strain
2)the wound modifiers can make it hard if I am having a off day with the dice
although the first is usually more of a problem.
