<div></div>Call me crazy, but didn't I see tons of Enchanters state that the stuns/stifle/mezs already didn't work on the epic raid targets? <div></div><p>Message Edited by Euler on <span class=date_text>05-12-2005</span> <span class=time_text>01:17 PM</span>

Your role is not control.  It is DPS.  Control is not needed in EQ2.

<DIV>Did they ever?  Every good Assassin skill I've gotten -- since I became part of the sub-class at level 20 -- has specificaly said on it, "Does not effect Epic Targets."  It kind of sucks, because I'd be just about the worlds most useless raider ever and am useless to a group fighting an Epic encounter, but that's how it's always been.</DIV>

<span><blockquote><hr>lastlight wrote:Your role is not control.  It is DPS.  <b>Control is not needed in EQ2.</b> <div></div><hr></blockquote>Too true.  I remember many raids in EQ1 where we absolutely needed to have a certain number of chanters online to be able to even attempt them.  Emperor Ssraeszha,  High Priest of Ssraeszha, Coirnav, the Rathe Council and so on.  And they were invaluable for raids that involved long periods of clearing trash, like VT/NToV.     Raids like that don't exist in this game (yet) and chanters just don't have a real raid role aside from buff bot and that is pretty unacceptable.</span><div></div>
