TEST Server: New Telamina's

[krogareq]

<DIV>I'd like to thank Rizaz for his screenies of Necro spells on Test server.  One spell I like and use a lot is Telamina's in combination with Raveus' Clinging Stench and a Hex Doll.  So I was curious what is happening with our snaring abilities.  I was very, very pleasantly surprised.  (I've just started on Test so can only check out Telamina's at this point, sorry).  </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2005-8/1066901/Telaminas.JPG"></DIV><p>Message Edited by krogareq on <span class=date_text>08-23-2005</span> <span class=time_text>01:09 PM</span>

<DIV>Wouldn't both those skills be on the same timer?  i know my summoner DoT didn't stack with my mage/training DoT</DIV>

Training spells still haven't been balanced for the new combat changes. Pay this no heed.

I dont have the exact number sin front of me. but using a hex doll, stench, and feedback results in about a 87% snare. so If this stays the way it says, and actually works. your basically rolling all three spells (snare wise) into one minus 4 or 5 %. which IMHO is awesome. Since when I kite I constantly keep all 3 on the mob this just means I have really only one to worry about now. seems like it would make life a little easier.

<div></div>hmm, 83% seems excessive to me.  its well known soe arent keen on kiting, and (from memory, its a while since i played eq1), our best snare there was 70%,  83% will bring the mob to a virtual standstill which would make kiting very easy - and that makes me wonder if that is a typo at best (i.e. slows mob <b>to</b> 83% ?) if it is correct though, you wont need a hex doll or the 40 training option, as 83% snare would be pretty awesome. <div></div><p>Message Edited by Tinantier on <span class=date_text>08-23-2005</span> <span class=time_text>10:44 PM</span>

<DIV>Nearly every class gets huge snares like this. Dirges can snare 1 target > 100%. I saw a Dirge do this and the mob ran around like it was feared.</DIV>

[quamdar]

so is kiting still possible with this spell or are there enough resists that it isn't really possible? <div></div>

<DIV>Look like they're going to be getting rid of this spell.  From a post by Blackguard:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><STRONG>Training changes:<BR></STRONG>- Every ten levels (level 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60) you can now choose from a list of four spells or arts to upgrade to Master II quality.<BR>- This replaces the previous Training abilities, which have been removed from your Knowledge book.</DIV>
