Group-friendly AE for group encouragement?
 

In Luclin, they made it so that pvp area effects (point blank ae ONLY; not targeted ae) do not effect immediate group members or group members pets.

This encouraged grouping .. a LOT.. for instance, bards have all these utility spells, but forced to solo (or can group and do as much dps as a warrior and as much tank ability as a rogue..).

So many spells deem useless in a group. Hell, even in PvP, If I'm not solo, I can't use any AE anything because it will effect my group member(s)!

Encourage grouping, patch this in, raise our population.

This is def something that's needed. Even tho it's not classic, it would improve things here.

poll options seem biased went for douchey troll over bluebie magget

umm, no

dont need shadowbane style "pvp" consisting of 15 retards standing in a pile casting point blank AE's

U think some people waited shadowbane to do it ?

I remember a huge battle in VZ, with a corpse spotted at sebilis entrance ... ;)

50/50

8/7. ;)

And about the AE thing, rofl, don't be a scrub:

As if we have the population to find a full group of bards, ALL at the same level and correlated in the same place..

Of course the people that can't AE are obviously voting no. For those that want to group, wouldn't it be nice to actually get bards in your group, or allow your chanter to AE mez when shit breaks loose?

half the fun grouping up as a bard is ae mezzing half the group on a bad pull and punching your pals to break it

tried to do that earlier, "OK MAGE, IM GONNA MEZ, BACK OFF PET OKAI?" *mage pet relentlessly attacks and roots me after mez* /sigh

thats the other half
