Broodlings now cast on the run--they shouldn't stay at their owner's feet immediately after they are cast. Reduced Broodling area effect damage. Broodlings continue to target the rest of the encounter after the primary target dies. Increased reuse timer to 45s</i>I haven't been paying much attention lately to the boards but did we know this was going to happen, or were they afraid to ninja it? Gosh darn it, I really like the stun on those spells. The stuns gave them a little extra ooomph. /sigh   <div></div>

<DIV>Yes, we knew it was coming.   Its been a topic of much discussion on the board recently.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Its not really game breaking to lose the stun, but Its sad to not see the hammers come flying, in on that final tick anymore.   <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

All this [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn]ing on this board is much ado about nothing. It ISN'T that crucial....but I will miss the hammer.

I don't miss the extra aggro the stun creates.  I miss the stun itself in that you can keep a group stunned long enough to burn them down, but oh well.

<DIV>i did like being able to stun mobs for the majority of the duration of the fight, but the extra aggro from every stun was a pain in the butt.  you needed a good tank to hold aggro if you were going all out, so i am happy overall.</DIV>

[chaos overlo]

<DIV>totally agree. while i must admit the stun component was a nice plus, i hardly miss it.</DIV>
