I seem to remember slowing the same tiki man while a warrior tank mezed it for a lonnnng til we could finish them all off. Enchanters werent the only ones with tedium.
enchanters are just whiner babies!

They spam the tank with VoQ constantly while he screams he doesn't have the buff slots to handle that in PoE raids.

ok guys wait here while we scout out what the f**k we're supposed to do with these damned drakes for 2 hours ok? make sure to keep buffs up at all times because we might get aggro.

crap guys, sorry. when we figure this out, it'll go a lot smoother.

Aparently you havent heard all the whining coming from shamans when they are asked to buff or how often they die.

PS slowing a mob ever 3 or so minutes or tanking a single mob is alot less tedious and boring then mezing 2 mobs ever 30-40 seconds for however long.

Most of the "whining" coming from enchanters is usaly because some nerco or shaman dotted everything in site before the MA called engage on a target or some hotshot ranger or rogue engaged before a tank breaks mez causeing some ping pong.

But other than that If there isn't any CC on a raid to do I just tash slow cripple nuke. If there is a shaman doing cripple mine wont stack so i get to nuke more!

Yea I did pick my class. For the most part I have fun. That is one of the only encounters I don't like doing. Didn't say it was hard. Just boring. Cast count to 30 cast count to 30 etc.

I forgot to add when we do have cc in small areas SHRINK FFS. I always get pissy about that. Get a device if you don't have a shaman or beastlord in your group.

Never understood the shrink issue. I hit f8 quicker than anyone can click their mouse on a mob. EQ mob clicking sucks anyway. Hell, most mmo clicking does. Sad

F8 dosen't always work for CC. If their is only one mob it would. But multiple you have to either select or cycle nearest npc. With cycle nearest npc ( working as intended ) it will target shit way across the room/zone before it targets the mobs in camp. Lately I have been just useing ae mez to get it done faster then cycle back and get them one at a time.

I have had nothing but problems trying to target since the DX9. Everyhting looks better and runs semi smoother but would rather have my targeting back.

Shrink is good for more than just being able to see and target. It cuts down on lag for those that have older computers to. But most importantly , at least to me is to be able to see. Because everyone likes to be in the front for some reason. You get someone who isn't shrunk out in front of you and might as well close your eyes and guess what mob is targeted.

Memories. Many of us were "whining" about those instances.

Lag is general network latency, ie how long it takes information to travel from 1 machine to another.

Video rendering devices, like 3D cards, slow down as they are required to process more polygons. The number of polygons in an EQ model are the exact same whether the model is 2 feet tall or 700.

Raiding in MMO's is hilarious. It's exactly like driving on the interstate. Everything goes smoothly until there is an orange cone misplaced. Then each cow in the herd slows down 5mph+(N), where N is the number of cars ahead of them. The net effect is of course total stagnation.
