The good Guild Groups don't really need the assist macro. It's more a tool for the funky random Group to make it easier for them.

If you remove it from the Game then the Guild Groups who play together everyday would be better then now because random Groups would play even worse without assist

That was my point exactly. If we want to really roleplay we must remove them. It would look more real too...

while your at it, remove /stick /face and lastattacker lol

then it will be more skillbased imo

/stick and /face are needed /assist isn't, it just makes gangbanging far too easy.

Additionally a good group will pick the same targets first - no need to even use /assist at the start of a fight.

So true, just go for the alb with the stupid purple star animation around them who has just landed a sweet mezz and now has at least 3 super speed pets chasing after them
Mind you usually hibs dont have time to assist their debuffer, as the debuffer is also the damager!

As for assist like most people say it will add a little more skill to the game and I would vote for it to be removed.

It would not hurt casters more. Every decent caster group has a debuffer - just watch out for the debuff grafix and assist manually.

Yes, of course it would hurt casters more (relative term) since it is harder to see a caster's target than a tank's target due to the tank usually being stuck on it.

Yep removing /assist would improve the skills needed imho.
And as it is already said it isnt really needed.

assist is for n00bs so they can compete with the more experience players

 

[ilaya]

been saying this for ages.. remove /assist.. remeber when we didnt have it? or if not. try think if we didnt have it.. more skill involved in both cases yes?

Remove /assist all together or at least remove /assist name
