Let’s not take it too seriously. Enchanter and skill refers to ability at crowd control. Raiding on P99 isn’t about CC, with fear and hate being an exception. There is no functional difference between someone who memblurs the 3rd time the raid leader shouts someone memblur it and someone who mems it after the 4th shout to shut him up. Enchanters are just buff bots here. It’s a boring and necessary role, but don’t make it sound complicated if you need to cast a few situationally dependent spells. Managing buffs is enough of a challenge with you idiots that play here.

A raid ench should help on pulls. Mezz mem blur adds that come with the dragon. Raids can be fun if you challenge yourself.

I don’t know the context but please don’t suggest that “enchanter skills” have anything to do with P99 raiding. Enchanter skills distill into:

Cecily tells you, ‘Haste please.’
You begin casting Visions of Grandeur.
Your spell did not take hold.
You tell Cecily, “Didn’t stick. Click off old haste.”
Nexii tells you, ‘C, GoB, GRM
You forget Visions of Grandeur.
You begin to memorize Gift of Brilliance.
Cecily tells you, ‘k. Done. Haste please.’
You begin casting Speed of the Shissar.
Cecily’s body pulses with the Speed of the Shissar.
You tell Nexii, ‘Invite.’
Nexii has invited you to join a party.
You have joined the party.
You begin to cast Clarity II.
Cecily tells you, ‘I meant VoG. Haste please.’
Nexii looks tranquil.
You begin to cast Gift of Brilliance.
Nexii appears to be starring into nothingness.
You begin to cast Group Magic Resistance.
Nexii is resistant to magic.
You feel protected from magic.
You forget Group Resist Magic.
You have left the party.
You begin to memorize Visions of Grandeur.
You begin to cast Visions of Grandeur.
Your spell did not take hold.
You begin to prepare to camp.
This is probably the best RnF post I’ve read in months.

Thank you. I worked hard on that post and all I got was AM screeching at me and enchanters missing the point.

always the same question, how does this affect you?

the thought of someone else able to box just bothers yous? someone can farm better alone bothers you? seriously, HOW THE HELL does this affect you, other than your salty mmorpg ego

Alot of the Boxers sit on the same camp even after they get that lore drop and just have their boxed char loot and port over the EC to sell it, is one way it might.

Had a guy who was very obviously boxing. Was claiming a typical full group camp with 2 (and wasn't clearing the whole thing, plus there were other camps better suited for a duo free), tried to get a invite a few times and wouldn't take me, it wasn't a camp with gem drops (but I did offer to pass on that stuff because I wanted XP). When I was in a full group looking to trade a smaller camp for the one he was at he wouldn't switch.

After 4 days of this he disappeared and I never saw him again, i'm assuming he got caught because it was very obvious, probably took a GM 3 minutes to confirm. I think buddy wanted this camp because it was far away from player traffic.

So this affected me because for 4 days since I couldn't get optimal XP. I would be annoyed if it was two humans who wanted that duo xp, but I would understand and respect that hustle.

I was going to poopsock and wake up in the middle of awork night to earn credits toward fantasy video game lot, but the fact that someone might be playing 2 characters at once killed it for me.
