Another 20 for it to do 1800/tick.

Over those 40 minutes the spell has dealt 360,000 damage.quote]

Kindar, please stop making unvalid statements. If it took 2 hours and 20 minutes to kill Zirvaine, it would not take hours to kill the hardest non/summoning mobs, or xp mobs. Thanks you for the rest of your input though.

This would however allow necros to kill non-summoning mobs, which alot of other classes cannot solo.
 
That would be that NO other classes can solo. And it's not just unsummoning mobs.

the change was that the DoT now dies when the necro FDs, whereas before you could hit the DoT, FD, and wait for the mob to die.
 
Um, my shaman has soloed summoning mobs before.

What I mean is that a necro with this will be able to solo the highest of the non summoning mobs easily...is that worth the 3 AAs, to do once an hour?

And I know that mobs summon at level 59, but, the named 55+ seem to summon still. I think that was intentional.
 
What I'm saying is that before this change, a necro could solo ANY MOB that was snarable. Including raid mobs. It doesn't matter if it can summon or not. There is no way any other class could match up with that.

I've solo'd summoning mobs as well. It's not difficult.
 
omg i'm talking about how FC is now! i know what it did before and what it does now

NOW a necro (with this AA) can kill non-summoning mobs with little effort. would that be the benifit? getting one free kill an hour isn't that good.

Its true that it would be a free kill in regards to mana cost. However it would not be a free kill in regards to time. It just takes enitrely way too much time to kill with just FC.
 
OMG elitra i'm getting really tired of trying to get my point across.

make a damn necro then go try it.

I don't care what they do with the AA now.

Kindar I'm only trying to help. If you are tired of trying to get your point across, stop posting in this post.

I'm trying to find some positive uses for the AA because I DONT have a necro, and I'm not making one to find uses for one AA. And if there don't seem to be enough valid uses, then I think that Wiz should look into revamping that AA.

You saying it's basically a free snare once an hour is fine. You don't need to make it look worst because the damage starts low. Wiz upped the damage, so it shouldn't be as bad. If it still doesn't seem to have a point, like I said, Wiz would look into it.

I can't see it being a free snare with like instant 300 damage a tick.

Perhaps some other ideas for the AA would be good? But I would like to see some other uses for the AA before I actually would ask for the AA to get changed into something more useful.

Also necros, note that some classes get pointless AAs. Ex: Shamans get some pet AAs, I think it gives them some hps or something. Considering that the shaman pet has roughly 2k hps to begin with and hps buffs don't work on pets, what little hps that AAs gives, would still make it one of the last AAs I get on my shaman.
 
Elitra your kinda i help i do not need! and it is 5 AA not 3!! get Your facts right. Stop posting in a post i started? i was hoping other Necros would put their comments in.

Quote Eiltra " I'm trying to find some positive uses for the AA because I DONT have a necro" :roll:

So if you don't have a necro, stop trying to change something you have no clue about. its not instant 300/tick it takes 29 ticks for the AA to get that high.

Oh and FYI i have lots of useless AAs

Its a snare "period", yes it has damage but who in their right mind wants to take 20 min + or so to kill 1 mob for 2% exp????

Well i have to run my AA just popped up, and i have to go solo POA and kill a god, Woot and in 1:12 i can do it all over again. :lol:

You could have done that before, though, literally. We can't have that. :)

What do you want it changed to?
 
Kindar, you were using it to solo the red wyrms in WW. You were very much distoring facts in this argument, so you haven't really earned any arbitrator position for this thread.
 
if it can be changed, its what i stated earlier. about having the snare remain, but have the damage double, eg. 25, 50, 100, 200, etc or as a min have the damage increase,

FYi i have soloed a red wrym without using FD, but the risk reward is not worth it (many deaths). Your life depends on fear.

Double every tick? That's ridiculous, it'll do like 100k damage on a raid fight.

And exactly, a red wyrm should not be soloable without effort.
 
Okay Wiz how about instead of starting at 25 damage, it starts higher? as it is now it takes 29 ticks to get to 305/tick

how about it starts at 100, then at 29 ticks its doing 380/tick vs 305?

Kindar, I said that 300 tick thing as an example to make it better do to more damage, it was an idea, not a fact of the AA. I've logged my level 42 necro to check the AA three times now, and I see 3 AA cost for it, I've patched too and checked.

Just because I'm not a damn necro doesn't mean I can't comment about the class, some people know another class better than the people who play them (i'm not quoting anyone in particular). If YOUR sick of repeating yourself as you say, and you don't care about the AA, then stop posting, even if it's your own post. Me asking what the AA can be used for is a way of me learning about it better.

Why don't you post some improvements the AA could use instead of 1. Throwing peoples helpful comments in their faces, 2. Complaining about the AA, and using false facts even after it was proven to you by two people already.

Saying it's a dumb, useless AA is NOT going to do ANYTHING. Wiz will probaly want some ideas (balanced ones) before he decides to change it. I can easily complain about Slumber of the Beast not being targetable. It will do nothing. Wiz said he is not making the AA FDable so that you can solo anything without effort. So get over it and post some ideas to change the AA to get it to be more useful.

Also Kindar, I am allowed to post in these forums, no matter what you say. That's just something you will have to deal with yourself. Wether I'm trying to help or not.
