Default Overpowered stoneskin needs changing - badly

Before all of you hop on the bandwagon and say I got pwned, cry more..that's not the case. We ended up killing Krokorogue, and I didn't die. It was a 3 vs. 3. We killed his two friends, and then it took nearly 3 minutes for 3 of us to kill him by himself. I was wondering why it took us 3 minutes to kill him....I'm not a healer..I don't have low dps...I have extremely high burst dps. I look in my logs, and low and behold, he absorbed nearly 11,000 damage by stoneskin ALONE. Not even taking into consideration his manashield. Also remember that every time he absorbs damage from me, he gains mana to keep his mana shield up even longer.

Also remember that this is only logs from my perspective. He also absorbed TONS of damage from the other two people who were fighting him. So if you average 10,000 damage absorbed from each person, he absorbed between 25,000-30,000 damage from stoneskin alone AND got mana off each absorbtion. Surprisingly enough, me and both my "helpers" were in deep red hitpoints when he finally died. I already PM'd the developer who implemented stoneskin items into the game (Fyreflyte) in hopes he can recognize that there is an issue here. I see this stupidness happening on a daily basis. It wouldn't be the first time SOE implemented EXTREMELY OVERPOWERING pvp items/abilities. Either remove all stoneskin items, OR, nerf the proc rate so you don't have mage's stacking 4 stoneskin items at once and getting close to 50% stoneskin procs.

I've never had, and have never used, Swindler's fate. Maybe you're confusing me with Popsi? *cringe* And if this is an attempt to compare one ability to another, I'd say you're far far off mark, considering what we're talking about are items that keep the stoneskin affect on you 100% of the time, whereas a god ability is extremely temporary and costs time/money to use.

Ok... manashield goes up. With full dispersion gear it's hard to kill a sorcerer. Run away from a manashield sorcerer for 30-seconds... manashield goes down. Gratz, dead mage.

Even if you don't run, it only takes 30 seconds to kill a wizard or warlock. Manashield goes down, the sorc's dead.

Cry more.

Wuzzums. Poor Kruhl couldn't kill someone in 10 seconds or less, so their class is overpowered.

You'll live.

You want to know the reason dispersion isn't really overpowered in PvP? Because only Clothies can have alot of it.

This is of course assuming that the mage isn't doing any damage or afflicting you with any effects to keep you from running. Oh, and this is also assuming that his friends don't show up in that period of time where you have to go chill and smoke a cigarette for 30 seconds waiting for his manashield to die. Get real. If you force 3 people attacking you to run away for 30-45 seconds, you've already won the fight.

Correction- Poor Kruhl and his two friends couldn't kill someone in 180 seconds or less, mainly due to one extremely overpowered item that Fyreflyte implemented in RoK, so the ITEM, not their CLASS is overpowered.

Why don't you learn to read before trolling? The same could be said for Warlocks or anybody else wearing 4 stoneskin items.

Actually, you win the fight when all the other people are dead.
