<DIV>Tinkering bringing us 50% FD chance potions for everyone, +10 haste for every L62 cloak, what's left that we are useful? And why not DPS for example? Bruisers going to feel sad? </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>Message Edited by selch on 11-04-2006 09:26 AM

Im not sure a 50% FD potion means anything. My 97% or whatever M1 at T7 is still fails plenty on me..and often 2 i a row. And unless they changed it (quite possible i know) but 2 different haste items dont stack anyway, so seen as almost every one these days has the DT access quest wrist item with 23% haste then it will be meaningless.Message Edited by Illustrious on 11-04-2006 04:19 PM

Also with teh combat changes I believe Haste does not stack.

Whats the cast time of the potion?Whats the reuse time of the potion?Are they one shot, or multiple charges?Quite a few factors to take into consideration before we should get worried about one of our skills becoming obsolete.Personally I'll keep my 97% FD, and i'll bet people grouped with me will prefer my 90% group FD chance over a 50% potion. Since I am betting the recast is close to our 15min reuse of group FD.<div></div>

Also, it's not just FD that's being copied. There's a bunch of class abilities becoming available with tinkering. 25% chance at rez, 5 charge item for example.<div></div>

Message Edited by Illustrious on 11-04-2006 04:19 PM <HR> </BLOCKQUOTE> With the new adornements you can add 20 % each haste to a waist and neck item and the haste will stack. For instance I have these adornments on my Dragonscale Sash and MOA necklace for a 40% haste bonus. There also is a 20% dps adornment for the neck slot. As for the FD potion, I would be too worried. Even at 96% FD fails often, I would hate to be facing certain death and hope that a 50% FD might my save my butt. Will be funny to see all the folks saying " dang FD failed on me and I died, I think its broken" :smileywink:Message Edited by shaolen on 11-06-2006 12:55 PM

There were evac potions made available through a quest in KoS.. didn't make scouts less viable for that. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> As for the additional haste items / adorments, don't forget the cap was increased so its not like our additional haste is going to be frowned upon.
