1. No one is going to have 100 plat to blow on multiple pumices, most likely you will have around one, and you won't be able to even get one till around level 30 with you blowing all your money on spells, armor, etc...

Let's not limit our view of this issue to only the first week or two of launch.

2. I just don't get how GM's can make some ridiculous shit in game while not put other ridiculous shit in. For instance, SK Harm Touch refresh on death?

Insta-cast pumice cheapens every single PvP fight every time everywhere. You're not going to be guaranteed of a SK HT bind rushing you down every single time you engage in PvP. That said, I wouldn't mind making HT timer persist after death. No one's really arguing that so I'm not sure why you keep bringing it up.

3. Why is fear/charm not in game for the benefit of CC classes yet SK's get a free refresh timer instead of waiting it out? I see major exploitation here. Kill Group A, die at your bind to fresh HT, go pwn Group B with the same Harm Touch... Umm?

Hey man you can't make #3 just a rewording of #2, you're breaking the rules of ordered lists! See above.

4. Pure melees are going to receive it in the butt to a single earth elemental pet because they can't channel. Come on guys, you all have seen how earth pet root lasts 18-24 seconds, GG.

Get resists, play better, etc. There's solutions to this but no solution to the cheapness of insta-pumice.

5. Solution: Make the pumice one charge, pillage enchantment, instant cast and lore. If a pet is on you, you can pell your root and maybe get away with some jboots and strafing.

I don't care if egg shaped pumice is lore and 1 cast, but now we're entering the territory of completely altering items just for the hell of it. There's no point in putting a custom item in when you can just go camp golem wands.

6. This also adds more dynamic to DOT classes, remember these before you could have a million fukn pumices to pell all their dots?? Maybe druid/necro damage will be viable for once and you actually have to use STRATEGY to determine when you want to burn your pumice. Or hey maybe you actually have to mem the cast version of dispell instead of going to your 24 pumices in Bag 1,2, and 3???

This is where it gets interesting because you're starting to argue against your own stance on insta-pumice.

7. Nullify Magic pumice is in fact more stupid because it has 5 charges, is super CHEAP, and you can have as MANY as you want. So let me get this straight, you guys would rather have a bard cast x10 nullify magics on you on the run rather than one pillage enchantment? Dumb much?

Sure, because he just wasted at least half a minute doing that.

8. For the sake of Classic, let it be classic. Get rid of this "dynamic pvp system," let immy healing/bind rushing/corpse camping/etc etc be in the game because they were in on live and they added their OWN dynamic.

If you don't like the dynamic PvP system, there's a thread for that, and this one isn't it. Try to stay on topic with your inane rambling.

9. QQ Less, L2P Better.

Good advice.
