We actually gain significantly less from EM than other classes. From a group focus to a raid focus is a much smaller increase in power than from a...
For Rains, I'd go Rain, Rain, Spear, Spear, or possibly Rain, Rain, Spear, Fire Bolt. Rains are better damage during a burn, and as stated Spears...
Deagun, do you mean 42-46% of the time or the hits. Because those are very different numbers. Aristo's stated goal was somewhat vague, but at least...
There are a number of melee classes that, with raid gear, get strong enough to molo Roon (who is, btw, the easiest named in the previous teir)....
Here's the list from the point of view of a raiding mage: Tanks: Basically they keep aggro on stuff and don't die Warrior - tanks the boss. He has...
Regardless of how far back VoA is, the RS pet has never been our primary tool to allow us to gate. CoN and fades fill that role much more adequately....
VT is virulent talon, a pet proc that is a significant DPS boost. If you aren't using the of many line Host/Servant of Ro are rather low DPS AAs....
In tough content the difference between a healer merc and a real healer is night and day. But often even groups are using only one healer merc, one...
As for DPS, here's why this nerf is concerning beyond tanking ability: 1. Our main pet contributes a notable amount of our DPS. During a burn it's...
Thank you for your parses, but I do take issue with this part for 2 reasons. First off RS pets are a big part of magician DPS that need to survive...
I'm with you on the numbers but not on the conclusion. Wouldn't having less than 35% of hits DI1 mean they were tanking worse than the stated...
I'm sorry but I was refering to pet activated abilities, since they haven't changed to my knowledge since he last did the parse. I'd love to see...
/sigh I'm interested in seeing the Beast and Nec before and after parses (or did I miss them somewhere?). Since activated abilities have not...
Which is why things should be adjusted in beta. Nerfs are the reality because the devs aren't perfect, but they should be used very sparingly....
If that was the only nerf that would make sense. But the number of nerfs is concerning, regardless of whether they're correct or not.
I'm not sure how you interpreted what I wrote (other than cutting out half my post), but you got the wrong message. The problem with nerfs is not...
Well when I last logged on to live (a few days ago) a max AA EM 20 RS pet could not tank a mob long enough to recast one. The time it lived varied...
I can't really believe people are defending nerfs. Yes, sometimes they are necessary. But all a nerf means is the developers made a mistake. It's...
Well last stand has to do something to tanking... It may not change DI but it obviously changes something or it would be useless. I'm assuming it...
I don't play a warrior, but defensive still has a 45% mitigation buff last I checked... It's not like discs changed *that* significantly in the last...
