cabalist for early keep defense, gives alot of rp ;P
ice wizards for late keep defense, even good at lord room, also nice rp for ganking tanks :)

Well as a matter cabbie i can say that its only good ifs the attackers are 1-2fgs, if its more youll get shot as soon as you get your head up the walls :\. Ofc its always nice when the attacker has pets, pets come in, usualy stop right at the door, you spam aoe dot and all those hitting doors are hit :p

6-8 Earth Wizards... Any time during a keep take or keep defense ;)

Then again, you really need that much to make a difference... 1 is just annoying really...

EARTH WIZZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

nuking shitloads of filthy dirty stinking enemy from safe within your own keep walls = teh win :)

as above said, about 6 earth wizzys w/ a necro for pwer tr/fer + mincer could wipe out a hideous amount of attackers.

a shitload of ice wizzys being healed like fuckers standing at the door could also do some serious dmg to door hitters.

gif more earth wizzys tho :) they may not totally kill many ppl with gtaoe but it annoys the fuckoutt of door hitters and more importantly interupt enemy casters

well 1 earth wiz that uses assist on an infil or mincer on top of a wall at a keepattack rocks... put that cross right in the middle and see ALL enemies inside the yard being interupted :p

for defence...caba or icewiz i guess

caba being target 1 person...hit DoT...and wait for people on low hp to drop....

icewiz being at door when mid/hibs are on 2nd door...and hope & pray you are not the only wiz standing there...


Played icewiz...respecced to earth....both great fun :p (even if they are BG level)

Never played caba...and never will i think :) but they do rock in defence & attack... icewiz is more defence...or you should have ubergroup that keeps you alive in the middle of hib/mids... so..euhm...

Ice Wizard isnt just defense... Its an awesome offense tool, if used correctly...

Also when taking a keep, 2-4 ice wizards on the gatekeeper, and (if their able to cast) NOTHING gets inside alive :D

Lol, arnor, they nerfed the necro's to hell... A necro cant do jack shit but powertransfer (he cant even get power back, because there's nothing he can hit due to los issues)...

2 or more scouts assisting eachother can be annoying. To stop them you need assassins or gtaoe on all walls at all times to keep them unstealthed/interrupted.

Assassins can be disposed of and gtaoe at all times won't happen. :p

(for supressing supportclasses/casters and single targets ofcourse.. )

Can always use my bugged insta-debuffs... They ignore LOS completely. Oh the joy of reducing someone's cons & str by ~30...

Earth Wizz r good at keep defence/take, but i found they have 1 small prob....

As soon as they get to the second door, u get an army of pets come though and kick ya ass.

All said and done, can do an obseen amout of dam.

Will prolly respec him 1 day, just too limited use.

Can GT the lords room on a keep take....

Then the lord just shoots u....

Do like the root tho, that is 1 thing i would miss

What else can I say but a matter Cabalist? AoE DoT (even greater with high Wild Arcana and 300+ int), AoE disease, nearsight, str debuff (for casters trying to be cute on you and duck out of sight), and free power regen whenever you need it -- what can I say, I am a walking talking siege machine! :D (But yes, ice and earth wizzies are great in siege warfare as well.)

Why do people always want necros for power? where is the necro gonna get this endless supply of numpties to drain power from?

Using a AoE str/cons debuff with delve of -36 and duration 30s is not noticeable, I'm quite sure. Resists rates are way high also.
