What happens when Personae Reflection and/or Rapidity get upgraded? Are those effects then forever lost on the weapon?

Default Re: Illusionist mythical

I am very upbeat as a general rule. Not prone to accept negative thinking etc. Frankly it is aginst my nature to compare my class to another. I just work on my own abilities and run with it. All that said, there does seem to be a favortism to the goodie goodies. If I was at day 1 I would probably be rolling an Illy and not a Coercer given my long term goal is raiding... That's kinda sad for me. <shrug> It is what it is. I hope they do some balancing and throw us some bones.
To the above that say adjusting their range is ok, I would point out that Coercers have to joust in to cast one of our biggest DPS spells. An Illy having to step into harms way to do what I am forced to do if I want to parse for shit, does not get much sympathy from me. I would say "Welcome to our world Sucka!".

Rapidity is about as likely to be upgraded as Enraging Demeanor.

Personae Reflection should last until Level 83 at the least.

Otherwise it completely depends on the group they're going in. Mage group is obviously not going to be a tough decision, scout group? again, no real choice, especially if they have their mythical.

But OT or MT group? Have you ever seen an illusionist in either of these groups in a good raid setup?

OT gets more benefit overall by staying high on the hate list which means more dps needed, which means... well, just take a guess which enchanter gives more support towards more dps?

As for MT, try taking a poll of how many high end guilds run with coercers in the MT group. :P

The real barometer of use is:

On nights the XXXXXXX doesn't log in we notice the difference.

To be honest the only thing most people notice when XXXXXXX = Coercer is the lack of a memwipe to save raid.

Does any of that change once you have a Mystical?

Make Sirens Gift a groupwide effect not a proc. Make it so that 20% of all power spent by group members is applied as mental damage on the target. Sounds good right? For me, Templar, my largest power consumption would be 70 mental damage on the mob... perhaps the pathetic amount of damage that would be puts the pathetic proc into perspective for you.

You can make a quickie Macro to fire Manna Flow specifying one person in the Raid (or group) who is running out constantly. Just hit it every time it comes up.

I think whoever you are replying to in this old thread has died from old age.

I'm sure they've been desperately waiting for that tidbit of wisdom for the last year and a half.
