Now that beta is over

Can we get scent of terris put back please, so we can play the group game again.

Patch still did not fix this.

Unfortunately there’s nothing to fix. Dev came out specifically on this topic in the beta forums and said it is working exactly the way it is intended. That being said, it’s ridiculous and there’s no reason group content mobs should be resisting spells AFTER a necro casts his scent debuff.

So is there actually any benefit to getting ranks of the AA past the first rank since they all cast the same spell?

It not even worth using as it is.

This is copy/paste response to Scent inquiries from EQ dev posted in beta forums.

Yeah, it seems that the whole point of a debuff has eluded him.

Folks can decide what they want but every class in game can debuff for themselves except necros now after his change. And he defends it as if its fair.

Enchanters debuff their spells themselves.
Magies debuff their spells themselves.
Wizards debuff their spells themselves.
As well as beastlords, rangers, bards, shadow knights, paladins, berserkers, monks, rogues, warriors, clerics, druids and shaman..

Necros are the only class in the game post nerf that can't debuff their tops spell lines themselves. This is called balance for the longevity of the game. Every reason he gave for "balance" is bypassed for other classes debuffs or other classes AA that must be exceptions to his so called rules.

Still need to be fixed
