Tired of being mezzed?

[old.Dogson]

Heh, spotted this tactic on the American servers.

Warrior gets tired of getting mezzed and bolted to death. Warrior wacks grey con mob once. Grey con mob follows him around doing 0 damage. Warrior gets mezzed. Grey con mob hits him for 0 damage. Mez breaks. Warrior beats the crapola out of the mezzer

Pretty smart methinks

Of course it needs a grey that you wont 1-hit kill

In my experience the grey cons gets tired of missing after a while and leaves. Would be cool if it works though since I hate mezz when I'm on the recieving end(no problem with mezzing others though.. ).

If you sit down every once in a while, it'll be able to hit you for 1 dmg or whatever and you can carry on . I once brought a mob from Cruachan Gorge to Dun Crim this way

and then u become a sitting target lol

this sounds good in theory but in practice it aint going to work, why ppl take advise from american forums i'll never know lol they aint exactly the smartest ppl in the world

Having tried to do this also - but mobs tire to fast and run home.
Give them more endurance

and btw - doesn't the mob need to hit you to break mess - and not just strike and miss you?

Nope, mob just triein to hit u breaks mez.

I had a similar plan after i got ganked by a minstrel (again <sigh>) comin out of druim ligen. I heard her playin the mez song b4 i got mezzed (castin time, obviously) and turned but couldn't cast anythin fast enough to interupt her (damn, where's my insta stun? ). Afterwards i thought if i'd whacked the nearest grey mob with my stick (bein feeble mage most likely wouldn't have killed it) it would have broken mez for me and i could have proceeded to exact revenge for umpteen killings by minstrels. Shame about that insta-stun tho.

Just remembered, i also heard a similar plan for a mentalist. Mentalist charms grey con mob, grey con mob follows him about. Mentalist get's mezzed, mob is released from charm and attacks mentalist. Mob breaks mezz, mentalist proceeds to nuke enemy.

Aye that works well when running without any speed, done that some, mostly when soloing, and it works ok.
however, usually u cant bring the mobs for very far (pretty far tho.. but theres limits)

but if u get into combat and u need to rest, u need to kill the mob coz u cant rest while being hit at (combat mode = no regen)

It works best against minstrel imo, ask filip about that

It is a weak tac for big fights however, the mob will be killed fast from ae spells.

Very nice but it doesn't work with mezz my dear friend. With mezz you still won't break free after a hit. This only works with root. (correct me if I'm wrong)

 

[Subbiz]

you are wrong. mezz breaks if it tries to hit u.
Im not sure if root breaks if it tries to hit me and miss...
