well formatted post

i agree with most of it, especially regarding mend metal and soothing cold. those spells are effectively worthless late game, enemies are frequently hitting for 3 to 4 times the amount of armor you recover per turn, and the aoe is already quite small, so it's hard to justify using it over almost anything else

something else not mentioned - is cryogenic stasis working properly? every time i use it it does nothing and is somehow gone almost instantly. allies still manage to take damage with it on too
