Well I play a sarnak in PVE and their to fucking tall in dungeons so this Billy Illusion is a godsend.If they nerf it I guess I'll either reroll another toon or go to PVP and bitch about whatever class kills me and call them overpowered.

There are far better reasons to quit than a shrink nerf.

Dude, I'm saying, either Billy or LON cloak shrink by itself is fine.

It's when a 50% shrink is combined with another 50% shrink and then a small species illusion such as the cat totem is added on top of it that you have a virtually untargetable character in PVP.

Nobody is suggesting that ONE shrink gets nerfed. All I'm saying is that people are stacking shrink and size reduction items for the sole purpose of manipulating PVP game mechanics to make themselves very hard to target. The game wasn't intended to be balanced around that. That's what needs to be stopped, not a single 50 percent shrink per player.

And definitely, I'm only asking for this to be done in PVP. I don't care what happens on PVE servers, except when PVE items interfere with balance on PVP servers.

Agree 100%.

LoN or muppet shrink in itself is fine, the problem is just that people keep stacking stuff until they are approximately the size of a jellybean. Just make it so illusions and shrink effects cannot be used together, maybe?

Had I think it was Lilwhite run up to me tonight while his group stood below me at the sokohar post in TG earlier today. Couldn't target him even when he was right in front of me, could only see a little dot running accross the ground on my screen.

If anything they should just make the effect break in combat like the choidkai totem does.

Agree 100% here.

Imo a maximum of one shrink type should only be allowed at any one time with a max of 50%... breaking when in-combat would also be a nice addition

Now might be a good time to mention that gnomes can target shinies from a mile away.

Stopping shrink from stacking seems to be the easiest way to handle this. Will they? Who knows...

I vote for no illusion, no shrink on pvp server.
