Aaryonar
DBable. Slowable. Aaryonar casts an AE mana drain DoT. This means that if a caster is hit by the DoT, they will quickly lose all of their mana (the DoT is about 500 mana per tick, which will drain casters very fast). If a caster gets hit by the DoT, even once, they will lose all their mana and will essentially be useless. Aaryonar also has a fake AE that will hit everyone, no matter where they are standing. The fake AE will show your mana bar dropping even though you arent actually losing mana. Click on an insta-click item (even if the spell can only be cast outdoors, like Jboots) and your mana bar will be updated with your correct amount of mana. The best place for the casters to hide is around the corner, on the stairs. This presents another problemthe casters have to stand where the chicks spawn. When anyone needs a heal, they must disengage and come around the corner and the clerics will heal them. If you get to about half hp, GET OUT OF THE FIGHT AND AE - and wait for a heal and be sure not to train the casters.

Also Cloud of Disempowerment is currently on a 15-20 second timer, classic posts suggest this should be more around 10-12 seconds per cast

this guys is cake if you have a person calling out his AoE, He casts it every 10 seconds... main tank must shout that his AoE has been casted then casters run out cast then run behind a wall again. Entire Ntov was cleared in a few hours on Tallon

In my example the AE that hit me was indeed because I was in his line of sight.

Sitting behind the wall I was not affected or saw a the "fake" AE debuff/message.
