<DIV>has anyone ever tried to do a 6bruiser fear team?  the jeer skill is very good at times and if you had say 6 bruisers who didnt lag and could run behind a feared mob isnt it possible to just keep fearing a monster and beat his [Removed for Content] down?  i say someone tries it and makes a video lol</DIV>

its also very hard to hit a moving mob, there needs to be a /stick command, and I havent had any mobs attack me while feared...a ripostle on the other hand...-Tamaran 40 Iksar Bruiser- Gravestone Coven - AB

<DIV>If you buy some nice ranged weapons, fear kiting is actually quite fun with Jeer and can be usefull in alot of situations for taking down tough mobs a little easier.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>With Jeer adept 1, I can usually get fear to stick long enough and get enough distance between me and the mob to allow Jeers to refresh by the time the mob gets back to me. I just follow the mob keeping a good distance and lob throwing hammers(my ranged weap of choice) at it while its feared. This is a great way to get ranged skill ups too if you have been neglecting it. you can also mix in Intimidate if fear breaks too early to buy you some time.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Often when fighting orange or red solo mobs I will jeer them 2-3 times and use my ranged while they are feared. I can usually knock a good 30% of their HP off before I actually engage them and take any damage.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Another good tactic is using Jeer to buy time for ability refreshes. If the fights really close and my Ignore pain is 20 seconds from pop, jeer/intimidate on the mob can get you a breather and time for ability refresh.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> I have found using these kind of tactics I can often solo green and sometimes blue (depends on mob type) group ^^ encounters (single mob). The fights are really close and take a good 3-4 minutes, i wont lie. I usually end with no power and 20% hp. The flip side thats nice though is that I get alot of chest drops doing this and as a person who is constantly soloing while LFG its a nice bonus. I was doing giants and gnolls in TS last night for about 2 hours and came out with a good 4-5 adept drops. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>
