1. OP. How does the current fte situation, or "manipulation" or exploitation" as you call it, give one guild any unfair advantage over another? Are we seriously to the point of declaring that a melee class using a Discs is "exploiting"? You people been playing a game of wackamole with supposed manipulations (also known as intended game designs) in this quest to find an excuse as to why you lose dragons more often than the next guy. Its getting ridiculous.

/thread. I dare BDA to come at this lol.

Their response would probably be to change the game code itself to make things "fairer". Eliminate discs in raid settings! These people continue to be dumb as rocks and crybabies.

Can we all agree using SoulFires on raids is stupid and should be removed.

*Unless Paladin, then it's legit.

Why is it stupid? I've never gotten a soulfire for any of my raid chars but if you're gonna quest that it's fair game IMO. Since its no drop i don't know if it can be exploited to a degree comparable to an ivandyrs hoop or something. Every guild has equal access and ability to complete the soulfire quest, so in my opinion its fair.

Every character has access to lots of things that are stupid. Accessibility doesn't change the fact that having 5 charges of instant complete-heal totally trivialize certain engages. And it allows a single player (in conjunction with other clickies like mallet or bladestopper) to self "tank" while 30 people camped at zone line beeline for the mob in hopes they get on aggro before the FTEer runs out of clickies.

It may not be rechargeable, but it is just as stupid as hoops or chain pets.

1. Daldean. I think using soul fires to kill a mob is pretty weak, not because its exploitative, but you shouldn't need to resort to soul fires to beat the mobs we are fighting. It is just a weak tactic. But if you really need to do it to give yourself a chance, then by all means.

2. Fact of the matter is, what mobs are we talking about that are getting engaged early for purposes of holding on until the calvary arives?

1. No out door dragon.
2. No VP dragon.
4. Not CT.
5. Draco can be duo'd so I dont see how he is relevant here.
6. This happened with DA idols on trak, but not now with soul fires, etc.

This entire thread is about two mobs: Inny and VS. Yet, out of all the times in the last few months that inny and vs were engaged in this method, I bet only 1 or 2 times it was effective.

Even the one thread about VS getting FTE by a warrior and cleric tracker was bogus. The tank engaged 2 mins after pop, and ran from the entrance to engage.

People need to quit finding excuses and just accept that you win some and loose some. Velious is the only answer at this point. Maybe you people should be on the test server helping there, rather than tryng to make arbitrary rules that you have no idea how they will play out in practice................

Theres 5 people testing velious....

IT WAS MY IDEA! MINE MINE MINE.

Class-R shot it down on the grounds that Class-C has a greater advantage in mobilizing from any location not just from within a zone. The logic there still boggles me, but then again, I blame Chest.

WC requirement would be cool.

Or at the very least, any Druid ring or wizard spire. So that you need to port and run. Dunno how to deal with the Dreadlands conundrum though.

This is why you should roll on Red.

Do not like it. If any guild doesn't want to participate in this kind of tracking we should give them their own mobs. We could call it class R or something.
