Just curious what did they nerf on the enchanters?
  • Enchanters got a useless effect on Epic 1.5
  • New Enchanter Charm Spells do NOT work in any zones outside of OoW.
  • Many zones with mobs that JUST meet level 64 for CoD charming (PoP spell), in ALL expansions, are flagged immune.
  • When charming in OoW, regardless of a spell, the DPS on the pet will instantly degrade 40-70% depending on the mob.
  • CC is been eliminated as there are no more adds in Omens and everything can be singled.
  • Sony has been giving false ratios of the nerf so all the other classes agree with them, making us look bad. They are saying with haste and pet toys it will hit for the same as an unhasted mob, and when it breaks it will be like 'just another add'. WRONG. When the charm breaks the pet's dps goes back to normal, IN ADDITION to the haste and pet toys it has. They fail to mention this when explaining the nerf, and thusly, shows even more disregard for the class.
  • We have the only epic 1.5 to have 1 augment slot, not two. (This will be changed in next patch, but its ironic)
  • Aggro on Pacification Resists have been DRASTICALLY lowered.
  • Mezzes are less reliable than lets say a bard or ranger pulling.....Last time I checked we were supposed to be masters of CC, eh?
  • Every other slowing class has gotten a slow upgrade. We still use our Kunark slow.
  • Mobs hit way too fast and too hard for Ethereal Rune, the rune upgrade, to make any difference than Arcane Rune.
I'm sure theres more, those are the ones just off of the top of my head.
Sounds like alot of BS. I played a enchanter, but only to level 54 so alot of that stuff I don't know much about. I know I always hated being the person to have to pacify mobs in newer zones cause it would resist more often then enough and about instantly kill me.
