Was that Necromantic Mark changed ninjad in?

Kuld · 12-12-2007, 04:47 PM

Before you could use NM to heal via TH by cycling it on and off as needed. Went to use it today, and noticed it now has about a 30 second refresh on click off.http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/...6/changeit6.jpg

It was working last night fine, I actually used it a couple times when I got into a sticky situation while waiting on root to refresh. If it was changed, must have taken place this morning, or I just didn't notice the change last night.

atm i'm at work so I haven't been able to get in game and check the mark spell. I just hope you are wrong and they didnt screw us over with this change!

Supp · 12-12-2007, 06:14 PM

I could have sworn that NM had this 30 second recast all along, which is why it was excised from my TH lineup. I'm remembering this incorrectly?

KBern · 12-12-2007, 06:18 PM

It has always had a long recast.

Catchisif · 12-14-2007, 04:19 AM

OP is correct, went from 1 second recast to 25

Owlsight · 12-14-2007, 12:56 PM

Oh wait - I think I got my marks mixed up. Are you talking about pet buff mark OR debuff mark?

Pet buff mark was on long cast - was changed recently. As for the debuff mark it was short recast. We could toggle it on/off to cast multiple times to proc TH. If it was changed, must have been recent. I havent logged necro on recently. will have to check though.

That's what I am curious about. Necromantic Pact (pet buff line) or Mortality Mark (debuff line)?

Supp · 12-14-2007, 04:40 PM

Ok, let's be specific about what we're talking about here. The screenshot in the first post here is the pet buff. That's the one I'm saying always had a 20 or 30 second recast.

This AA info reflects a L10 necro, so I'll use those terms. The one I cycle on and off all the time is grisly mark. That's the one that increases my stats and gives me an essence of anguish.

Now, Necromantic Mark is the pet buff. That's the one I'm saying always had a long recast.

KBern · 12-14-2007, 04:49 PM

Exactly Supple. I was speaking of the pet buff and this has always had a long recast and was never only 1 second.

Dyshar · 12-17-2007, 12:06 PM

The OP is right. The noxious debuff proc buff went from a 2 sec recast to a 25 sec recast. I dont know how none of you noticed but eventhough the pet buff was on a 25 sec recast in EoF and before, when RoK came out it was a 2 sec recast which they changed yesterday...it was nice while it lasted.

Well if that is the case it was probably never meant to be changed the they simply fixed it. This buff was always on a long timer and if for 2 weeks or so after the xpac it was on a 2 sec timer, then they simply fixed it.

I am sure they would have advertised the 2 sec change if they meant it to be that way.

But honestly I never noticed the change during that time and am so used to waiting on this buff I may not have even checked.

Eviljoe2 · 12-17-2007, 09:06 PM

I could be wrong about this, but it seems like the change was aligned with the change to our feign death spell.

I know the buff you all speak of always had to wait if you just dismissed your pet and had to cast it again, then, all the sudden for a while, it was immediate, but at that time, seems like FD recast timer did not start till you got up....then, they fixed that fd timer back to how it was for us again, but the pet buff timer came back....could they have been linked somehow???
