Obviously it's ok for healers to have it because pac healers are to sorcerors as smite clerics are to cloth nukers.

Or something.

I don't recall ever seeing Mythic say anything along those lines, they said they not going to give sorceror's insta CC, rather try something new and give them anti mezz buff and bolt rage CC. I think you should back up that statement with a reliable link.

Insta amnesia is on a 10 second recast, the ST one is not even worth it, it is resisted more often then not(ask stubbe). Whereas the castable version of lull can be chain cast until your mana is depleted. I can interrupt one out of every 2 casts, a sorceror can interrupt every cast.

And has to stand still and not be interrupted at that time.. A bard with his insta can just toss it on the run.

It's also the reason why you see bards use it alot initially on every encounter and Albs don't.

And insta CC >> quickcast when it comes down on getting away from 'something' pounding on you.

I would love to see Soruzi quickcast mezz when he has 2-3 zerkers on his sorc.

Since QC is so worthless as you make it out to be, remove it together with the insta CC then.

I won't disagree that insta stun is a joke (both single and AoE, this is where mincers who rely on insta stun are fooked btw ). Should never have been in the game (in any realm). Insta mezz is overrated. Always was an always will be.

Last night. Emain last night (shortly after RR) i emptied my entire mana bar mezzing so much so that my insta's where still up and unusable for defence when when i got mobbed by the stampeding alb masses. Yeah insta mezz is so strong i decided to save em up for when i counldn't use em

You won't believe it till you try it an all i can say to this is DO SO. Mid has a huge pop on pryd and they aint all hibs from excal. Try deleting the mid/pryd chars and try life with hibs insta mezz. An when you hit RR5 with that bard then see if you have the same horseshit beliefs about insta mezz being the be all and end all of DAoC.

A strong player adapts (like the mincer stun on bard trick, requires skill but a fine example). The shit a bard has to pull off ON HIS OWN to beat mid CC v's a strong group is a joke but we do. In short quit the fookin whining an learn to out play instead of out nerf.

I was not talking about insta CC, I was refering to amnesia(lull).

It's very easy to stop and cast, use /face bind it to a key, I have to stop and cast many spells, I manage to do it quite easily. The point is was that insta lull is not spammable(? tm), it has a recast timer.

What's the point of QC Mezz at bolt range when they can cast faster with mota3?

I would save qc for my second cast, as the first one is bound to be interupted.

insta mezz is crap anyway if u got decent resist or determ .

Please dont give us Instant...
I dont wanna turn out as a 3rd grade CC'er without QC and poo dd's...

Instant Mezz immunity isnt a problem for sorcs, or shouldnt be anyway. Run in the back when you see enemies stop and start to cast the mezz, if you get instant mezzed just qc aemezz after 4sec then cure your support classes....
If a healer/bard get a pet on them what do they do ? wait til someone removes it for them, what does a sorc do ? ahh qc.....
QC rocks even thou it's a little slow...
