well grapple stays on the caster for the 8 seconds even when the target is dead so it has its draw backs i dont think it is that uber in caster groups if you are the only slam/guard bot but it will be great in tank groups to stop healers sprinting all over the shop.

U can still guard when grappling. and Warden gets grapple too, bodyguard a caster, grapple a tank in pb box.

So yes. it will be most useful in castergrps

;)

Depends on the situation but i agree with you.

The thing is you cant justify 1 thing being overpowered just because another thing is or where(!) overpowered. (i know u didnt say it garb) :)

Ill hope frontiers brings more balancing :m00:

tbh from my perspective there are much more overpowered things to be balanced than grapple

infils generally
castable stun on chanter
pbae disease timer on shaman
bonedancer insta lifetaps
insta aoe cast CC spells

the list goes on

When LA was still overpowered Mid had an advantage over any other's realms tank because of the stupid high growth rate of the styles. Those exact La styles you used to gain your RP's with.

now Mythic made another "ooops" and you come and whine like alot of other people whined about berserker damage... now here comes the question.

How small do you want the violin im playing for you to be?

If you havent heard it alrdy, it will get nerfed. You will get stunned when you use it. After 1.68 or such.

in theory but:

mythic should work on the premise that not everyone will have toa, and not everyone will want to spec perfector

and the fact which makes pbae disease lethal is for the few secs which it takes to cast cure disease the shaman can edge out of melee on his perma sprint

it should have an immunity timer like nearly every other status effect

Grapple is completely absurd and there is nothing wrong with pointing that out - it isnt QQ just an observation.

It gets fixed ofc so nuff said.

What I find more pathetic is peeps who grapple you then spam rude while grappling with their own genitalia.

It should also have a significantly longer timer for the insta pb...every other insta seems to have a 10-20 second recast timer, yet Mid gets stupidly overpowered abilities on an insta timer thats shorter than most Luri's!

I understand if you are whining about things that arent getting fixed or tweaked. But this is absurd.

What's the reason to whine about something you KNOW is fixed next patch??

People using it aren't gonna stop using it just cos some zerker is in tears.

Toa has nerfed disease in general as has been able to see disease on mini.
not only does it make it alot easier to cure but will detur people from using it as its so easy to counter.

the colours on mini are lagged and bugged as hell
seems they can even handle simple coulour change coding

and diseased being nerfed due this is pure BS
pbaoe farting will still give the edge in kiting
and teh effect remains the same
only thing wich changes now is that some brown colour lags in grpmini once in a while too

aint gone change till dis gets a timer.
