for a few hours.

LB, I'm afraid I won't be on when server comes back up - will be for sometime next week, doll. Will try to get my last cleric flagged for air, so we can do the last three 4.0 books at the same time.

Funkin, if it were that easy, I'd do it. Fact is, difference on a necro 4.0 with and without swords is about 11k dps. That means just because I want to do crowd control, on two necro's and a mage the dps hit would be about 30k dps, not to mention the fact that I probably wouldn't have the enchanter pet up at all, bringing the total dps hit to 40k. I wouldn't mind as much if they spawned with weapons that don't AE at all, but taking a 40k dps hit just to be able to mez seems very steep.

Just curious why the long down time on a weekend.  Figured it would be on a weekday or something.

That is a big hit in DPS but its also the gameplay style you chose to play. You decided you wanted to mez mobs. If you had initiated a discussion on adding mez friendly alternatives like fireblade v3 (without ae damage) on pets I would have supported it 100%. I like the fireblade v2 as it is, makes it viable to run necro,mage,bl as part of the team and still take down adds.

Hunter basically stated mezzing is required in t5, so it's not so much of a choice as a necessity. I have requested alternatives like a fireblade v3 with only AE aggro and a v4 with only single target dps in a suggestion thread, but I feel like they don't get any attention.

Considering mailing the man himself with suggestions, but my previous suggestion got no reply either.

Maybe I'm just on an ignore list lol.

I was just wondering if charms might become droppable this weekend if for just a day that would be cool.  I just remember the boss mentioning it and wondered if hes still entertaining the idea?

You're absolutely right. If I could summon a full t4 pal with 4.0 and UC, I would be entirely happy. And a SK for the necro and a War for the mage. Win!
