Fizzles

[digitz80]

Anyone else bothered by fizzle rate, especially on certain spells?

Enstill on a necro is a good example, it has a really high fizzle rate for some reason. But really all spells seem to fizzle a lot more than they should with maxed skills at 60, and often when there is a fizzle, they come in doubles and triples.

I like enstill becuase it's a good balance between hold duration and mana cost. For many mobs it's a perfect hold time for root dotting. One enstill will cover a full splurt duration for example. Root wears often doesn't last long enough, Paralyze is often overkill and wastes mana, especially if you have to recast it because of a break.

I'm definitely in the Paralyzing Earth camp on necro roots - I'll slow play rotting a mob if I'm low mana and I need something close to the full 3 minutes.

By the time you have lich at 49 the extra 20-40 mana really shouldn't be a big issue - and it if is you're living on the edge and might need to FD/zone if something resists.

Slow and steady, its the necro way...and ironically, it'll keep you alive [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] <3

My spells seem to be interrupted by what appears to literally nothing (maybe the wind blew so hard that I had to adjust my footing, thus throwing off my concentration) than they fizzle.
