I PM'ed Aeralik with a link to this thread and a description, but I don't know how effective that will be.

If you see this spell as "Just another de-agro" then you are very closed sighted. This tool can be used for many other functions other than just dropping your agro. I dont know if you have ever worked out a raid strategy before but if you have you should understand what I mean.

This opinion is just the same as the Guardians who say that our new level 80 ability is shit. They say its shit because they cant foresee a time when it would be useful. The expansion is not even a month old and most of you haven't killed anything with a tag greater than heroic. Relax the cax and be glad you have it.

He didn't say he didn't want it, he said it doesn't work.

Sure its a complaint but thats not what the thread is about. Had the thread been "ZOMG THIS SPELL IS SO USELESS WTF" I'd agree fully with you. But its about the spell not working.

Sure, I agree I was taking the thread slightly off-topic but I couldn't let that one go. I am just wondering if he is testing the skill properly if he doesn't actually know what it should be used for. I remember the days when we had Coercers complaining that Amnesia was broken because them mob came after them. Or how about the Templars who complained that Sheild Ally was broken when they loaded up on agi gear not knowing that it was only based on shield protection.

How can you take the word of someone who doesn't understand the skill and believe it is broken. We will see when someone with a clue tests it

As much as I think Dakis a fool, he knows swashbuckler pretty good.

Sorry for not being more clear. If you have a shitty tank that can't hold aggro (not only to you), this spell will be useful for your raid.

Muraha · 11-21-2007, 09:43 AM

Did you ever think maybe it might actually be useful the other direction? ie. Take the agro off the tank? Food for thought...

Think outside of the box.
