Druid Fear - Panic Animal

[eisley]

I may suck at searching the forums, but I can't believe NO ONE has posted about this. So, when Velious first came out, Druids were a pretty good class. They were great in Kael for Dire Wolves - Dru/Shm, Dru/Clr, Dru/Enc were great for duoing Arena and Plate House. I remember getting a few Thurg BP/Legs back when they were worth something.

Yes, several of the tactics that allowed this to work are gone, such as pre-setting the pets top two buffs, by doing root > fixation (or slow if doing tash stick) > malosini > ensnare > glamour (or proc tash stick) > charm.

Now that dispel isn't guaranteed to hit the top two, you can no longer get around dispels by hiting See Invis and something else (regen bp, DS gloves) on him every dispel to fix it. Not to mention he just straight up interrupted most dispels or the sham would tank those.

Anyways.

The biggest danger by far Charm breaks sub-96. He would summon. This gave you two options. Get your timing down perfect to run away for 5 sec and recham. Have sham do lowest level root. Or, the easiest option - use Panic Animal on your pet and recharm. A 3 tick fear + ensnare, so it didn't run far.

Since returning, I can't land Panic Animal on ANYTHING. 100% resists on Dire Wolves. Maybe they're too high. I track down Terrorize Animal. 100% resists. Umm...

I go to Kedge, lower mobs. Green cons. Panic, 100% resists. Terrorize, 100% resists.

Am confuse.
