Ok.. lets see.. on a single target mob you can get 2 crystals back. Lets say that you cast Gift, Upheaval, and Netherbeast on a named mob, that would equal -1 crystal. And thats if you only casted those spells once. Take out Netherbeast (due to the lack of efficiency) and your still only able to cast those spells once. Oh and good luck parsing if your in a group and only debuffing.. no wonder people shun warlocks in groups (oh they dont' parse to well.. they are to busy debuffing the mob .. /sigh).

You can forget casting netherbeast in raids man.. everything ae's and what dosent ae, breathes heavy so your NB as brave as he is, charges the mob, looks at it, pisses himself and then promptly dies. And if you skip Upheval for single mobs, but do get in at least 1 debuff for a crystal, you can manage to either maintain or lose 1 crystal a fight.

per night i go thru about 250 nil crystals, but at the same time, with all the trash and everything, i gain about 100. So its not that bad in the grand scheme of things.

plus.

we losing nil crystals soon anyway.

Indeed, but was using that as an example ... /shrug. Though i do use it when the shit hits the fan and then you hear over vent "ADD!!... WTF ROUKAI!!!" then i laugh as i freak everyone out. Though the healer stops curing me and i die, but well worth it!

people think netherbeast is adds?

Bbert · 04-22-2008, 01:07 PM

well maybe he sends his netherbeasts after mobs that aren't yet engaged in the fight . . .

Or it's like the Conjuror plane shifting their Tank pets in TNT while fighting statues. For a split second you may think you got an add!

Saltaf · 04-22-2008, 04:19 PM

I guess if you fighting byzola...

Roukai · 04-22-2008, 09:17 PM

Usually mentoring guildies alts in Enchanted lands, but on occasion there will be that one person durring a raid going "WTF?!" .. like i said.. not usually done but /shrug.. i like mixing it up lol.

When you are fighting Leviathan and 2 Netherbeasts get reflected, those are technically adds?

Saltaf · 04-23-2008, 08:48 AM

no... cause technically they die in one hit
