*The teleportation effect allows downed allies to be pulled out of monster aggro fairly easily, making Rebirth a powerful tool for recovering from near-wipes in PvE. This makes it a good skill for ranged characters such as [[ranger]]s and [[elementalist]]s, who are often far enough from the center of battle to run away when monsters overwhelm a group.

Notes

  • The teleportation effect allows downed allies to be pulled out of monster aggro fairly easily, making Rebirth a powerful tool for recovering from near-wipes in PvE. This makes it a good skill for ranged characters such as rangers and elementalists, who are often far enough from the center of battle to run away when monsters overwhelm a group.
  • The energy-drain effect of this spell makes it undesirable in the heat of battle. Signet healing and focus-swapping can be used to offset this penalty somewhat, but, in general, since the caster will be out of energy and the raised ally will have his skills disabled for a few seconds, Rebirth is seldom used for PvP. Other resurrection skills, such as Resurrection Chant and Flesh of My Flesh, are much more useful for resurrecting a single target in combat.
  • Recent updates have caused minor issues with this skill; sometimes the resurrection part of the spell will occur before the teleportation part, causing the aggro to be pulled towards the caster. This can mean trouble in the case of a near party wipe. Due to the fact that this skill upon completion removes all energy of the caster and disables the resurrected allies' skills, it becomes a great deal more difficult to survive if additional aggro is drawn.
  • Good if combined with Glyph of Essence, as you would still lose all energy without it.
