I'm all for this change, finally a viable second demezz that doesn't hurt the number of speedwarps in hib groups. Might bring a bit more overall balance to make hib groups not suck as much phat wang.


If mentalists weren't fotm already they sure will be now.



Good point. I think Ment was viable before but now is much more so.


IF this has to go live, Ment getting speedwarp is just another reason to remove Mez-Reduction from Bards (and sorcs, the game...)


Mez-Redux is my new gripe. For those that have already seen me post about it recently, apologies.

As much as I would love a SW on my mentalist I really don't want this to go live, there will be way to many mentalists running around if it does.



I really dont see how speedwarp would make them op



Has nothing to do with OP. But I wish I could go banelord on my Lock and still maintain SW. Or how about perfecter on my shaman and still get SW? Or how about perfecter on my druid and still get SW? Get where I am going with this?

The only logical fix is to give mentalists access to convoker, remove stormlord, and limit the ML9 convoker ability to only pulse charm (capped at level 50).



see that makes sense, but for mythic thinks giving them full access (i guess) would be to op I dunno

Not like hibs know how to drop a speedwarp anyways, versus albs dropping them all over the place.

Saw 1 fga drop 5 speed warps the other day at Surs, was kinda stupid.

Edit: For that matter they don't know how to drop storms either, so what the hell.

I meant perma charm and not pulse charm. Perma charm is already capped at level 50 and it would be no different than sorc and SM having charmed level 50 ML9'd pets. Just make it so the mentalist can't use ML9 convoker with a pulse charm pet.

But Mythic/EA/Bioware rarely removes anything from a class. People will cry about losing stormlord, even though it sucks in just about all situations in the game. So I don't see mentalists losing stormlord.

They better put SW in a spec line. Giving it baseline lol. I thought that was another April Fool's joke.

Mentalists are the only caster in the DAOC lacking speedwarp and that is a crucial neccesity for groups which hindered them. Certain group setups left out Mentalists for the longest time because they lacked speedwarp, or they had to revise the setup.

Addition to baseline is the best option because:

#1 Hibernia already has 3 ML9 pet classes (Druid, Enchanter and Animist) and don't need a 4th ML9 pet class with Convoker.
#2 Making it spec line would just favor one line only which isn't fair to other specs.

Only reason Mentalists got it for 'free' is because they don't have the option for speedwarp at all whereas other classes do have the option. So I won't forsee this becoming baseline for any other classes.

Thanes are caster like but can never fill a caster slot in a tank group due to lacking speedwarps. What about that situation?
