@Ghostcrawler @hurricup @Aelobin make spells have a chance to be resisted from the front then
@Aelobin It will behave as if you were hit capped for yellow attacks.
-
-
@ShrewPaShrew@Ghostcrawler@Aelobin Why so? Positioning was always part of melee gameplay. -
@hurricup@Ghostcrawler Because every so often we get that boss that requires melee to stand in front anyway. Chimaeron for example. -
@ShrewPaShrew We prefer tank up front, melee behind, and ranged spread out. There are plenty of encounter-specific exceptions of course. -
@Ghostcrawler@hurricup@Aelobin Possible to give pets 15% exp/remove "always behind" in pet AI? Causes many issues that this easily solves -
@Spiral_SR We don't really want pets standing on top of tanks. -
@Ghostcrawler Front parry = outdated mechanic that punishes melee for stack on tank fights. Use cleaves to discourage standing in front? -
@shadowboy813@Ghostcrawler For recent stack on tank fights parries have often been turned off for that phase (durumu maze, mag rampage). -
@Fierydemise@Ghostcrawler Not always. Malkorok, also sometimes with Dark shaman you need to position yourself in front to avoid blobs. -
@Fierydemise here's the bigger issue. Have had oondasta turn around to target someone behind my warrior and then parry my colossus smash. -
@shadowboy813 Parries on boss spins need to fixed, if that requires removal of frontal parries so be it. -
@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR On that note... why don't you want pets on tanks? There are less tanks in front than melee behind. :) -
@Anafielle@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR Do you want all the tanks to quit tanking everything? Pets standing on them might be that breaking point -
@FeyMercurial@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR My point is that every argument against putting them on tanks holds for melee. -
@FeyMercurial@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR It is not more acceptable to obscure 7 melees' view than to obscure 1-2 tanks' view. Sucks for both. -
@Anafielle@FeyMercurial@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR I just feel pets should be smaller. Mage here who shrinks their elemental. -
@ArielleEJ@Anafielle@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR Seconded. No pets on tanks! -
@Rigear@ArielleEJ@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR Hey! Melee don't want them either! :P -
@Ghostcrawler@Spiral_SR Possible to use quest/phasing tech to make pets only visible to owners (at least in instances)?
