if you're fast enough to handle it yes, luckily, 99% of the active sorcs can't

its impossible according to aussie tho!!!!

anyways, easier to blame enemy instants than shity reflexes - no paning i guess.

here you got your proof, r2 bard vs r9L7 sorc

411 dex
10 spd
15 range (+2 vs players doesn't show in bonus overview)

both my calculations + this pic shows it is impossible to win vs instant

dont lead the grp as a sorc megam8

he doenst, if bard/healer got speed5 (maybe even 4?) and goes directly for him spamming insta he will win mezz. Its a fact :(

that screenie should quite clearly show that if you atleast look at it

doesn't bards have instalull on 2300 range or something?

yes? doesnt matter tho since lull effect dont show until "cast" is over and it says something like "you forgot what you are casting" and start to recast (if u spam mezz ;P). And he clearly aint interupted or anything on that screen either

insta mez is on a timer, if sorc is at the back its harder for them to get single inst'd therfore they can mez on contact (assuming the group isnt bunched up, ie awake)

and why would a bard use his insta for anyone else but the sorcer? DUMBO

are you saying you need a retarded bard who uses his insta on a leading merc with charge up to 'win' ?



makes sense :rolleyes:

& lol at the timer excuse, the number of fg fights left... it's an always up ability..

unless im mistaken he cant grapple and cast spells anymore. same as if my friar was bm i couldnt grapple n heal myslef (loved it earlier patches when i could) not tried it in nf. last time i tried it was vs urizen jsut before NF and he pa'd n stun chained me i managed to survive the pa chain. grappled him. i was stun immune but i couldnt cast any spells or heal myself at all. hence its been fixed so the caster of the grapple cant heal/cast spells .. but if i was to grapple a chanter for example he can cast spelly. just not vice versa

intelligence maybe? you'd have to be a complete moron to insta a FG an even worse to expect insta to do shit to a toa'd sorc with mezz dampening up. If you lost to that shit you got bigger probs in yer FG than instant mezz ;)

Anyone who ever even saw a bard played or even (shock horror feckin tried one) would know this. Bard class has alot going for it but don't delude yourself that sorc isn't a far superior CC'er. Bards strength (and weakness) is in utility. They fill one spot and are depended upon to do alot of shit. If they fail then the group is fucked. An they aint the best at ANY of them. So gimme a break plz with the insta mezz bullshit.

If your sayin insta mezz is pretty much an interrupt on a 10 min timer giving mezz immunity an nothing else yeah i'd agree.

And if the moron was out of range spamming the spell (like the screenie shows) it aint anywhere near as fast as actually getting into range an castin it straight. if i stand still like a moron out of range spamming i can't land a castable either.

I've been on the flip side of this where i was inc to the sorc with single instant held down at speed 5 like a daft bugger..........the sorc wasn't nub an landed his mezz np with probably a shit load less than 400 dex.....the difference being i admit i got owned. Must be real hard being RR9L7 ;]

zZzZz..... more ammo to nerf sorcs imo :D

My rm came across starquake in water near bled, was pretty easy once he was nearsighted, and ml9 pet was rooted, although he did do a kamizake run at me to get into range to moc/lifetap, the speed of the casting is insane, and lucky tbh i purged mezz earlier and had immunity or i was a gonner. But he did die in 2 nukes /em hugs mom4 :clap:

Its all about range, up close with all his ra's up and pet hes pretty invincible thanks to lifetap.

wishing u kept urs now? :p

on a serious note tho, u know what it was like to be a sorc "back in the day" and survivablity was a big prob with the class, mythic tried to fix this and gave sorc some serious loving, as always i think they over-done it a tad but u cant blame a player for using the tools given to them.
