Game Mechanics: Rapture/Dictate Immunity

[Nlaar]

Whoa easy there L, stop making sense! That kind of talk isn't wanted in P1984.

Although Nilbog was on earlier and checking the bug forums so I suspect this is a hopeless quest.

Going to stop bumping this thread as I'm pretty sure both Kanras and Nilbog have read it at this point and are choosing to work on other things. Sometimes I get the feeling that classic changes to game mechanics that make life easier for players or enable Enchanters to charm on raids just aren't that high of a priority, and I suppose I can understand that point of view.

Charm should cause wipes on raids if used. Charm should be useable to solo. Charm should be dangerous in groups, but useable if you keep the mob snared, tashed, and malo'd.

I don't know how to fix the issue, with charm being a primary dps method on raids.

Maybe charmed mobs should run off randomly in wrong directions and bring back trains, if their master is not close enough?

There are so many things that could be explored.

I'll bump it, looks like a lot of good research has gone into this per the bug sub-forum rules. Would be nice to have an indication from devs, even if its a 'too busy right now'.

Lack of any form of response discourages the community from contributing to help make things classic.

I guess I too would like to see something from Nilbog on this, even if it's just 'meh, this is low priority and I'd rather work on Velious'.
