<DIV>You probably know the problem, you are in raid, you want to use the prismatic strife, but basicly everybody assists the main tank, therefore you cannot cast prismatic strife on someone that targets the mob at the same time if you are not in the main tank's group.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Or to do that you can also target a team member, cast the spell, then reassist the MT.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Would be more simple to allow that spell to go to "Raid or Group friend", no ?</DIV> <DIV>In fact i don't see any reason for not having this, do you ?</DIV>

<P>I have had this issue as well, and end up having to do the target-switching thing.  Inefficient.</P> <P> </P> <P> </P>

<P>I tell one person in my group that I need a catalyst for my damage and ask them to make an assist key and target directly.</P> <P> </P>

This has been mentioned before. Definatley annoying. I see no reason why this skill cant be raid target as well. <div></div>

I created a simular thread, but I will also throw my vote in here too.  Also, it would be great if it worked with ranged melee as well: knives, bows, stars, etc. That would help stacking issues on the MT. With this change and a slightly reduced conc cost on personae(just one point!) and I would be a very happy illusionists. <div></div>

Yes it's annoying, but I also wish haste and other single target buffs were raid wide just like dynamism.

Both Prismatic Strife AND Spell Shield MUST be raid wide spells. Quite often you want even get a melee class in your group and forget about being in MT group. And Spell Shield is of course not useful on anyone other than MT.In fact a change to one spell would make a world of difference to illusionist on raids - have prismatic raid wide and assign the hate it is generating to its target.

<P>prismatic should be raid wide, definately.</P> <P>I dont think spellshield should be though... its a very powerful and specific buff, and people can't cast stuff like that outside of group.  Thats a basic design idea in EQ2, that the MT group is carefully selected.  Think how crazy things would be if we could all throw our best stuff on the MT.</P><p>Message Edited by ScamprinSlippy on <span class=date_text>11-19-2005</span> <span class=time_text>06:11 PM</span>

<DIV>Come to think of it, we are probably asking for Dynamism to get nerfed.</DIV>

<DIV>spellshield wont be nearly as powerful soon, making it raidwide wont make it hugely overpowering at all</DIV>

<P>Spellshield is already nerfed btw.</P> <P>Spiregaze can still charm your tank even though Charm is a class spell.</P> <P>Also, when I mem'd spellshield it was 100% chance and somewhere along the line it became 97% chance to reflect.</P> <P>But why even bring it up.  All Illusionist spells are destined to be nerfed no matter how innefective they are.</P>
