You still can't deny the fact that it's fun as hell to join these PuG's and solo heal, and out dps everyone in the grp!! We aren't dps, we all know that.. But we can still put up good numbers. Look at the bright side...We can hold agro better than guardians!! And out dps them too!! LOL

actually its more fun to avoid any kind of pickup action at any cost imo.

If you can solo heal and out DPS everyone, then you really should just grab a dirge and maybe a transfer class and duo/trio the zone.

But yeah, taunts aren't really needed with the amount of spike that comes from maxed crit and double attack, and the flurry ability. Procs, damage and taunt, are both available and work well enough if you have to tank as an Inquisitor.

Boxing a dirge+inq is a brutal combination. I love it

Inq's entering a group as a "DPS" when numbers are low or the mood dictates, can be a very viable option. Inqs have some nice things to offer to a pickup group while in DPS mode, compared to a raid, as the chances of a PUG having optimal setup with optimal enhanced buffs is low, meaning the Inq buffs do not get ass fucked by diminishing returns...

Chances are the Inq mentioned in the OP, would suck dick on any class he played, if "going all out" as a battlepriest yielded 1500 DPS... I can and have entered groups as DPS and it has worked quite nicely. If any scouts get their panties in a twist, I suggest deploying a kleenex, and purchasing the informative "Timely Button Clicking : A scouts guilde on how to beat a priest on a parse"

come to think of it...boxing an illy as a 3rd char sounds pretty kickass. by using sinergy you can even put up some nice dps with him to keep the power proc going

I love DPSing! I had this obsession with the numbers in EQ2... Whenever someone was parsing i wanted to be on there... But more so because as it was mentioned earlier healing is easy mode. I dont recomend that young Inquisitors even bother with DPS other than auto attack and tossing in some melee CAs to proc the myth and what not... To truly DPS on an inquis you have to be focused and in the mindset of a melee DPS class, meaning ACT with auto attack timers and timing you attacks so you get maximum damage... But if your group dies no one will be impressed lol... Personally there is nothing more amazing than hittin 8 or 9 k in a raid as a healer... Furies aside : ) And speaking of furies... lets not get the same rep they seem to have nowadays... tryin to be a ballin' DPS while everyone else is choking to death :P

It is all because of your race, not auto attacks.

Think about it, who does not hate on rats? The best part about hating on a rat, is when you pick one up by the tail, spin them around, and hurl them toward a wall at lethal velocity. The splat they make on impact, is the sound of another rodent being removed from existance.

Oh no you didnt!!

Avirodar · 10-05-2009, 01:39 PM
