<div></div>Your mezz can mezz pretty much everything (My is Master I) and for teh full duration (22.5sec) and while the mob is mezz you can use AE and it'll not break. And... Soloing is possible... with your mezz you can take larger group. You can tank well also with your defensive stance up.

I love jumping over a mob right as swathe lands and the animation looks like I've jumped even higher, and then landing behind them to get in a backstab or three before swinging back to the front of the mob before they get up. A kind of enjoyable manual dexterity I missed for a long time since I quit my EQ1 bard.</span></div>
