Joxi resto shaman12/27/2023 ![]() Now the 4-Set ( Heal the Soul) has 2 parts to it, one is free Chain Heal casts whenever you drop Healing Stream Totem, Cloudburst Totem, Healing Tide Totem, Mana Tide Totem or Spirit Link Totem. This is a great improvement over the old set which forced you to target players with Riptide in particular. ![]() I'd like to see this working, as it would put a lot of power into the Healing Tide Totem cooldown window (could even combine it with Spiritwalker's Tidal Totem). Stacking it to 50 guarantees you a full crit Chain Heal, but accounting for the critical strike chance you already have, realistically 30 to 35 stacks will already guarantee that.Īccording to the blue post, critical healing from totems is supposed to work as well for Heal the Soul, but this isn't the case on PTR at the moment. ![]() Arkansas was home to Native Americans long before Europeans arrived.Heal the Soul (2-Set) is supposed to make you Chain Heal more, which it does indeed. The first explorers met Indians whose ancestors had occupied the region for thousands of years. These were impressive and well-organized societies, to whom Europeans introduced new technologies, plants, animals, and diseases, setting in motion a process of population loss and cultural change that would continue for centuries. The United States government forced Indians to leave their ancient homelands and attempted-during the nineteenth century-to eradicate Indian traditions altogether. Indian communities persevered and today continue to celebrate their rich cultural heritage. This heritage is an important part of Arkansas history. The first encounters between Europeans and Indians living in what is now Arkansas took place in 1541, when Hernando de Soto’s army camped on the eastern side of the Mississippi River. The Spaniards were visited on or about May 22 (on the Julian calendar) by Aquixo, the leader of a large community on the other side of the river. Aquixo arrived with a fleet of 200 canoes outfitted with banners and shields and filled with powerful teams of paddlers and painted warriors wearing colorful feathered regalia. The warriors were organized in ranks, and Aquixo was seated beneath a canopy erected over the stern of a very large canoe. He presented a gift of fish and plum loaves, but the Spaniards, alarmed at the size of Aquixo’s force, fired their crossbows and killed five or six Indians. So begins the history of relations between Europeans and Arkansas Indians. When they crossed over to the western bank of the Mississippi, the Spaniards described the lands they observed as among the most agriculturally productive of any they had seen. Groves of nut and fruit trees and extensive fields of corn separated compact, fortified towns with populations numbering in the thousands. A system of roads and trails connected one town to the next. Many towns contained hundreds of square, thatch-covered houses. ![]() Open plazas provided space for public ceremonies. When the Spaniards reached the Arkansas River Valley, they encountered unfortified, dispersed villages composed of individual farmsteads-a pattern also observed in the Red River region of southwest Arkansas.įlat-topped earthen mounds supported leaders’ residences and temples containing the remains of revered ancestors and finely crafted artifacts used in sacred ceremonies. Like their counterparts in the Mississippi River Valley, these villages also were organized around ceremonial centers featuring the plazas, mounds, and temples that characterize sixteenth-century communities across the Southeast. Sixteenth-century Indian societies had powerful leaders who traced their ancestry to legendary culture heroes, much like modern Americans tracing their lineages back to the “founding fathers” or to European nobility. Sometimes, leaders competed with one another to determine whose ancestor possessed the greatest power or prestige. But you know that I am older than you, and that I confine you in your walls whenever I wish, and you have never seen my country.” When de Soto met with Pacaha and a rival leader, Casqui, Pacaha reportedly told Casqui that: “You know well that I am a greater lord than you, and of more honorable parents and grandparents, and that to me belongs a higher place.” But Casqui replied: “True it is that you are a greater lord that I, and that your forebears were greater than mine. In some parts of Arkansas, several communities were organized into larger “chiefdoms” under the command of an especially powerful leader.
