FAO: Minstrels camping the gorge

[Danya]

Stop it, you're all gimps. I've had to kill 2 minstrels in 2 days in the gorge now who offered virtually no threat and I'm getting tired of it. It makes me cry to see people ham-fistedly try to play a class I like so badly they can't even get a caster they jump from stealth below half-hp.

 

[medowind]

So your whining about minstrels giving free rp to one of your obviously superior characters?

And just because you are probably the best minstrel in the world and never die ever, have rr10 and can kill casters in one dd of even con ALWAYS, because you have thousands of years of experience, other people should just not bother playing their class or even try to get some rp?

Sounds good to me tbh.

 

[Danya]

No, but I can usually get a caster below half health given the jump on them from stealth. Especially a caster without a pet.

And no my char isn't particularly superior, you're thinking chanters there, mentalists are pretty gimp.

 

[envenom]

wtf? mentalist are fucking good mages all you have to do is QC mez run a mile cast HoT then stun then nuke the fucker into oblivion oh please mentalist gimp? shut it

smart minstrel opens from stealth with mez, runs in meleeing the caster and dd'ing, and at any sign of QC, instant stun.

so any minstrel that know how to play their class should be able to take a mage on 1 on 1 unless the mage got purge and moc up...

 

[envenom]

Mentalists are tougher then they look they have everything DoTS,PoT,HoT,Nukes AoE,Heals,AoE dots, 9 sec stun,Mez and nukes beleive me a good mentalist is a tough fighter

Chanters are actually easier then Mentalists this is what any minstrel should do if they meet a chanter

1.mez the pet
2. 2x dd the chanter
3 mez while dding
4. wait for 2 dds to recharge
5. once the dds have charged up Amnythist slash or what ever its called + dds chanter will be down half health.
6. any sign of QC stun cast insta stun then mele+ dd him to death.

Chanters are easy menatlists are alot harder

Seriously, don't be stupid. No minstrel shouldn't be able to take a caster from stealth, even more so if the caster is on half health...
Barring purge+MoC up and purge+IP down, or something, but even then tbh...

Not quite but almost right ;p
Anyhow, purge + IP > purge + MoC most of the time, although I've never been MoC'd on by a mentalist so I can't be sure the heals wouldn't fubar it all up

Mentalist > Chanter when you get to attack from stealth, imho

edit: ups, envenom already said it

glad i can please someone ^^

 

[old.LandShark]

What's wrong with admitting it when you're wrong?
Anyway, I didn't think mentalists have good mezz when I said mentalist > chanter when attacking from stealth

OMF MADNESS!!1!

Envenom has a mate...

 

[old.LandShark]

Sisters are doin' it for themselves!

 

[old.Nol]

PS: once you've mezzed and are waiting for DD's to charge...DON'T SIT RIGHT NEXT TO THE LW HERO WITH PURGE!
/surprise
It was very funny...

not exactly right...

stealth, start mezzing from stealth, dd,dd while mezzing. mezz sticks... wait for dds to be ready again. then proceed with DD and melee and then as glacier said insta stun when the caster begins to cast first spell

I havent lost against a pure caster in 1v1... yet

 

[Danya]

I was on full health, but they didn't even get me to 50% in stun, so I just qced a mez (which stuck, very lucky given I have 6 spec mentalism) and ran to range.

The point is as glacier/landshark says, a minstrel should be able to kill any caster from stealth without said caster getting a spell off. I did have purge up, but I didn't think it was worth using so I just let the stun expire. Next time maybe I'll purge the mez or stun for kicks and see if they panic.

I have, but only when they get the jump on me, never when I get them. Lets face it if a chanter jumps you, stuns, heat debuffs and three shots you, there's not all that much you can do.

 

[Gilead^]

then you must have faced some pretty crappy ones imo

TBH, as a caster I expect to loose to minstrels. They are pretty damn good at caster killing. Especially when I don't use purge...

badly played from minstrels, but why to make thread and brag about your uberness here?
