Should I buy Capture Mind Master I?

[JTSBro]

<DIV>Got a tell from a defiler last night, indicating he had a Capture Mind (38.6 mez, in case I have the name wrong) Master for sale.  I was in a raid, so I couldn't make a snap decision (fortunately), and have some time to think about it.  </DIV> <DIV><BR>The price seems good, though it would take the majority of my accumulated wealth.  But that's what I was accumulating for, upgraded high end spells.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>From what I understand, it should be resisted less, and has a higher level cap.  Is that true?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Those of you who have bought it or found it, is it worth it?  Considering the cost of rares on my server, it wouldn't be much more expensive than making an Adept III for myself.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Worth it, or no?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks in advance.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>I took the training upgrade to Capture Mind, it's called Tevalian's Seize Ego. It was a lvl 40 choice. Currently it lasts 50 seconds and is rarely resisted. Having it last longer is awesome, and I would not buy the Master 1 Capture Mind because the trainign upgrade (the + one) is SO much better. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>My app 4 Capture mind works up to lvl 56, Tevalin's goes up to 55. As of right now, I have never needed to mez anything that high, but with the expansion coming out soon it does give you something to think about. But also, the mezzes also let you mez MUCH higher than your level so I am hoping we get a new one before this one caps out. </DIV><p>Message Edited by Moon Beam on <span class=date_text>08-12-2005</span> <span class=time_text>08:50 AM</span>

Personally, I'd say go ahead and buy it if the price is decent. Upgrades are going to be even more important (especially for mezes) after the combat changes. The training options, from what I understand, have not been reworked yet, so who knows what will hapen to them. That lev 40 training mez might be a lot better even than the Master, but it might not even be an optio at all, or might not be as good, who knows. If you do't have any other pressing uses for the money and the price isn't a rip-off, I say go for it. PigLick <div></div>

As Piglick said, we don't know whether the training option has been revamped yet.  The odds are that is has not.  And even then, it may still be a tough choice between training mezz and the training construct spell.  It appears that contstructs will become more useful to us post-revamp, so this may be a good spell to have.

Thanks all.  The price is good, and I just made 30g on my vendor last night, so I'll probably go for it. Safe travels! <div></div>
