What lvl to Quad

[Ulivar]

Eh i duno about the mob reginin to full and breaking your snare, situation sounds more like you had gotten an add from social agro but i duno.

about the quad kiting, really depends heavily on your mana pool, it can be done, but for me - non twinked 1st char etc - its pretty hit or miss, others will probably have better experience and more info to give ya.

either way best of luck with it.

Weirdest thing, huh? I am 100% sure it was same mob I was kiting. I was right to the left of SF entrance, exactly at where that single sarnak hangs out. Succulent went right by it and I thought it might aggro the sarnak, but didn't. I had the cockatrice right there too going opposite direction. I cast Harvest, nuked cockatrice, then had the succulent in my face with red messages flying. That's why I'm 100% certain it was a bug.

If you saw my gear, you'd know it's my main / only char here. I am 100% non-twinked and proud of it! Honestly, it's the resists that are killing me, not mana pool, even though each resist means another cast. If I have to cast BoF more than 3 times I know I'm in trouble and zone. I was curious at when other wizards had success with little to no resists. You can have all the mana in the world, but if spells don't land you're not killing anything. A Lvl 40 druid was doing fine there, but I remember kiting well before 40 on live.

On the fizzle point, I remember (from way back) that there was a 5% fail rate on ANYTHING that was trivial. So casting lvl 4 root for a lvl 38 wiz on a blue mob should be trivial, right? Maybe not now, because there is a:

1/20 chance of resisting once
1/400 chance of resisting twice
1/8000 chance of resisting thrice, and
1/160000 change of resisting four times in a row, which has happened to me at least 3 times now. This is not something that should be happening!
