Can anyone tell me whether Maladroit is working?

[A-Dent42]

I have spent time in both Death Toll and Inner Sanctum and cant for the life of me see what difference it makes.<div></div>

It's working. it does make no difference? yes it does. it drains your power real fast<span>:smileywink:</span> beside that.. you can say it does nothing<div></div>

<div></div>Again copied from aother post -- this is how to test Maldroit.If you fight in EoF you will see what Maldroit does. Jina's description is right. The mobs that have these stat debuffs are UNCUREABLE. So that is when you use them. Vamps in Inner Sanctum, mobs in Emerald Hills all have these debuffs, next time you see an uncurable AoE take a look at what it is doing in EoF. ( I think the Pumpkin headed horseman also had one). To look, the best way is to take your mouse and hover over the ill effect, screenshot it (it usually has many lines.) Then if you want to test Maldroit, cast your debuff before AoE goes off (duration one minute) and hover/screenshot again. You will see the 25% reduction.If you don't have any EoF mobs, duel a friend with stat debuffs or have another Inquisitor land it on you in a duel, then take a look at Debase and Forced Obediance and etc's numbers before and after getting the debuff on you or your friend. You will see the reduction.<div></div><p>Message Edited by Ssinurn on <span class=date_text>12-04-2006</span> <span class=time_text>07:08 PM</span>

Yea, we get that Maladroit works like its supposed to but the point is that its a POS AA that isn't worth the points.

[Ssinu]

I don't think its worth it, but since I'm a raid Inquisitor its the best I got.The thread's title is "Can anyone tell me whether Maldroit is working?" not if its useful. Was just trying to help because I have heard several Inquisitors really not understand how it works.<div></div>

[JmSte]

<DIV>Just seems like you're praising the AA as if its some class-defining ability of ours that will make or break raids.  As of yet, I haven't found it to be useful at all :smileysad: but I suppose it is working as its intended.  Whether it's useful or not, I guess we can each decide that for ourselves.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'd personally like to see some changes with it.</DIV><p>Message Edited by JmStein on <span class=date_text>12-05-2006</span> <span class=time_text>01:38 PM</span>

[Ssinu]

<div></div>LOL no. I hate our AA. But people keep asking if it does anything. It does, but I don't see going down the CA line being more helpful than putting one point in Maldroit =/.I pretty much have been complaining about our AA and the path Inquisitors are going down in every post.<div></div><p>Message Edited by Ssinurn on <span class=date_text>12-05-2006</span> <span class=time_text>03:49 PM</span>

[Cepheus80]

<DIV>Some Vampires in EoF cast an ability that lowers the level of their target, I've been wondering if Maladroit would either prevent this from happening or decrease the level amount. I remember my guild's MT was decreased down to level 67 on one of our raids, so maybe the effect wouldn't be as severe with Maladroit, has anyone tested this out? </DIV>

[JmSte]

<DIV>I'm not positive whether it works on level drains or not, but I don't think it does.  Even if it does work, the MT will still take a beating and you probably won't notice a difference (especially if he's getting owned in one shot).</DIV>

When I duel someone I can verify that the maladroit ability does in fact decrease debuffs placed on me when cast.This may be a display bug, but has anyone else noticed that the ability also reduces the debuffs currently on the mob?Appears to be reducing the raids debuffs on a target.
