Give melee like 50 innate channelling

On live there was egg shaped pumice making this unnecessary

Oh no ya don't

Due to a lack of actual channelling, a single hit for a single point of damage causes an automatic interruption. Foiled by a light blue mage pet, when in classic through velious you could instantly free yourself.

This compromise goes beyond what is fair and just.

I don't think so man. Melees didn't have channeling. Maybe in Velious... but still no.

Melees never received channeling, but we already broke the game for an entire class archetype by straying from classic. So pick eggs or 50 channel get the poll up.

I like the idea, but there's a lot of things I "like". I would vote no keep it classic. I get the insta pumice argument but meh that was broken as fuck.

In big team fights, I'm not sure its all TOO common for a melee to get focused. 1v1 with a mage pet on you is another story. I think it gives some incentive to beat on melees.

The problem is, you don't have to "beat" on the melee (Warrior/Rogue). You just have to send a weak ass pet at him and laugh as he can't do anything to help his group.

Maybe if he's in that situation, the group should be doing something to help HIM. Keeping a pet tied up isn't a terrible contribution as a melee.

Inb4 SK pets which he could just beat down pretty fast (but should still get dispelled by a group mate).
