Just a quicky - to help solve me a puzzle and prior to complaining officially, what can catch a Mincer with Speed 5 and Sprint - more specifically what set up of artis etc. As I was caught up buy some Mids tonite in NF and would like to know your views on whether this should be possible.

Thanks for any input. :worthy:

you say it was mid's...skald and shaman could sprint for alot longer than you could.

best bet would be sos,
sos is not speed 5 its 4 (not as quick as speed5 but quicker than caster speed aka speed3)

AFAIK WH and SOS are speed 4, and you said "Mids" as in more than one, so Im assuming a skald, shammy for end and rou either ran out of end or had some root/snare, healer insta, warlock extended range, debuff etc cast on you or you hit a speed warp or poison trap without realising it.

Checking your logs and maybe an SS at the time would be a decent call before reporting anything, often battles like this are over fast and way before you get a chance to realise what was going on,.

also if you lag you'll lose a bit of speed too (e.g. if you freeze going into range of a keep your enemies might catch up a bit)

Thanks for replies, it was more than 1 Mid - all in Wolf shape, so no Idea of classes, only thing I can't rule out is good old lag, as film said above.

I have SoS - it's speed 4 - I had 3/4 of my Endo bar still left, I did not get any noticable lag - was crossing one of those nasty bridges, I saw the Mids coming out of water as I started to cross - too many so hit sprint.

Any way thanks for replies - I think I will put this 1 down to lag as checking screenie I took got name of guy, have seen him about quite a bit and never noticed anything screwy b4.

The answer was in the original post , Skald with Shaman endo buff while sprinting > Mincer + sprint . All he had to do was get close enough for a mezz.

Caster speed + sprint is faster than mincer speed since last patch, it will be "fixed" in the next patch...
