Whats the use in quickcast.. I mean by the time you see an enemy pop in a crowded zone there allready within insta range..

Also when a tanks on you and you try to quickcast they run through you .. rendering it useless..

Plz plz plz give me insta mez and stun ..

kthxbye ;x

Thought Albs have bolt range mezz?

And stun lasts for like 1 second anyway.

What's wrong with sorc mezz?

Yes quickcast isn't great but that's for all casters in the game not just albs.

you would want to trade back after you had insta ae mezz for 1 day.

the main problem with QC mez imo is the fact (bug?) that ALL quickcast spells take 2 seconds to cast, without modifiers from dex mota etc... so if a sorc and a bard/healer both see each other at the same time, the bard/healer starts casting ae mez and the sorc QCs ae mez... the bard/healer one will land first and the QC will be cancelled (due to the sorc being mezzed)...

to fix this personally I think there should be no way for a QC to ever fail, if you hit QC and cast it should land even if u are mezzed/stunned half way thru, not sure about LOS issues as tho this would fix the run thru bug it would make some more problems with uber round the corner mezzes

altho this would solve a lot of cloth caster woes its just IMO, plus mythic have stated many times they will NOT add any more CC into the game, so best just to live with it and work out how to beat it.

insta ae stun, mezz, sorc purge, sorc qc ae mezz i cant do shit to stop him doing that. I purge and waist my most important RA (imo) on a mezz.

at least albs dont have stun, nothing more annoying than purgeing mez 0.0001 seconds before stun lands!

suppose you could get slammed :)

tbh insta ae mezz is just free immune to slam and melee stun for albs and hibs.

try less whining and learn the abilities of your realm and maybe you'd win a bit more

You say it's ok that Healer has overpowered CC because Sorcerer has purge, then say it's a waste to use purge on CC?

Mid = easy level.

albs have insta stun on mincers, they know how crappy it is by now surely? its like a free immunity timer on anything, a det-tank barely stops for a second with it :( (same with insta mez). insta ae stun just allows mids to cast mez and put you out of the game for a bit. i try not to use my insta mez apart from on stealther pops :)

albs surely shouldnt keep going on about insta mez when they can mez from bolt range anyway? and which silly mid said you cant interrupt qc? i'm quite sure amnesia does.

You Sir have no clue what you are talking about!

The most common Pacification spec is 36pac/40mend. With this spec you dont get insta ae stun.

You do get insta ae mezz on a 10 minute timer: range 1500, radius 150, lasts 26secs.
You get interruptable ae stun: range 1500, radius 250, lasts 9secs.
And you get interruptable ae mezz: range 1500, radius 350, lasts 52secs.


Now lets see what you have on your sorc when spending the same points...

Uninterruptable ae mezz on a 20sec timer: range 1875, raduis 350, lasts 59secs

Self Mezz reduction buff: -40% (add 26% sc'd resists and 16% body resist buff to that and you end up with a 82% mezz reduction wich equals a duration of 5secs for the insta ae mezz if you were the target)


If I was a Sorc I wouldnt even bother to get purge. And I'd give you that insta ae mezz any day I get the mezz reduction buff in return! Yes, we have ae stun but you have paladins, necros, infis and stacking AF buff.
An ae stun can be purge and lasts only like 2secs on a tank anyway... try purging an infi or a necro AF debuffing your ass.

The grass is always greener on the other side. Wanna play main cc in Midgard for a day? I bet you wont whine anymore afterwards.

I'd let you play my healer for a day but she aint cc anymore... was too strezzing for me. Couldnt handle being that overpowered.

i still think bolt range mezz >> other mezz's. Getting mezzed at bearly clip range isnt very nice. :)

Yeah as healer cc is so overpowered that people respec out off pacification to the other lines.

Hardly any healers spec 48 pac anymore and the 30ish insta mezz is on 24 sec -_-

I never use insta mezz unless I get jumped in a wierd way without being mezzed. Why don't you albs just cast some insta ae debuff and interrupt the mezz? can't be that hard tbh.

Insta debuffs does not interupt. Amnesia works, but is not insta in albion.

personally, i prefer the bolt range QC over insta. except for one situation. if i use QC on my first mezz (which i usually have to), i usually dont have time to root or remezz the resists / purges, and i'll be dead or at least so heavily occupied, that i cant do much else than run. Insta would be used in this case.

Apart from that, i cant see much use for insta mezz, no. Insta stun, however, is a different matter :)
