pve recruitment? what? do you think before you post or just mash keys in a desperate haze of post frenzy, pushing seven up and chick filet wrappers out of the way as you click post quick reply as fast as possible? Someone asked for an assessment of enchanter's pvp prowess so I gave it.

Let's be real, this is a low pvp server, by that I mean the majority of time you're playing there's no PVP occurring. Most of us go into what I call "cruise control mode" while we're getting our PVE on, especially as an enchanter. You're constantly low mana, managing your charm pet and it's breaks, wearing full charisma gear which means you don't have resist gear on, you might have 3+ mobs rooted/mezzed at any one time. When PVP comes you're usually fucked as an enchanter. The situations where you can prepare ahead of time, get your buffs up, get your gear on, get a pet, stack the buffs appropriately, then get the guy to engage you knowing you have a pet etc., etc., are so rare they don't even bear mentioning. Plus, it's very easy to remove a pet from the action with a quick root. Now, while you're busy trying to pell the root the other guy is now dropping a nuke on you / meleeing you, etc.

I have to agree with Heartbrand here. No one PvE's like their ready for PvP. Not a bad thing. But it is funny when a group gets steamrolled like this.

I've wiped countless groups in Seb 1v4 or 1v5 because of this. They have multiple mobs rooted or mezzed, a charm pet that isn't stacked, a bunch of low mana / low hp people, just pell some of their mobs / pets, drop some roots on the players etc., GG.

You start casting the dispel as the other guys casts root. Your summoned staff gives you a freebie too.

It'd be neat if we waited for people to be finished with their pulls before engaging them in pvp here.

Itd be stupid not to go for that tactical advantage

It's kinda blue imo, just like training, but I realize this is a battle I will never win.

Some people say the cucumbers taste better pickled.
