When we gonna implement this?To fix the taming/ninja imbalance...
Yeah because it takes so long to go in and out of animal form *rolls eyes*Not to mention the fact that when in animal form you cannot use special moves or even toss a bola. So whats the problem?
Animal form is not insta-cast. It does actually have to cast before you go into the form. Granted it might not be 3 seconds, but it's certainly longer than 0.Just look at the times required to mount
pet summoning ball 5 secs
ethy mount 3 secs
animal form 0 secs
QFT...Yeah because it takes so long to go in and out of animal form *rolls eyes*
Animal form has created so many imbalances in PvP.
Before it was added, being a stealth char actually required skill. Now every noob plays a stealther since they can simply run away at mounted speed.
Also, The down side of having all 5 control slots taken up by overpowered pets was suppose to be that you had to walk. Thanks to animal form you can now have control of the strongest pet(s) in the game and still move at mounted speed.

Bolas are a problem. Players throw them and then jump into animal form to chase someone down. Or they activate a bola, go into animal form, then drop out when close enough and target, then get back into animal form to keep up.Not to mention the fact that when in animal form you cannot use special moves or even toss a bola.

But you can not interrupt the casting. The only way to prevent someone from going into animal form is to paralyze them. If they have resist or a trap box then it is impossible.Lariat said:Animal form is not insta-cast. It does actually have to cast before you go into the form.

Uh.. What game are you playing? It is impossible to activate a bola, go into animal form, catch up, go back into human form, THEN target with that same bola. That was changed quite some time ago.Quote:

Ok, I checked and it seems they fixed both issues with bolas.Uh.. What game are you playing? It is impossible to activate a bola, go into animal form, catch up, go back into human form, THEN target with that same bola. That was changed quite some time ago.
The taming "imbalance" does not lie with animal form. The problem is the incredibly overpowered dragon and also the extreme casting ability of that pet, as well as other spell-casting pets.When we gonna implement this?To fix the taming/ninja imbalance...
...and you have a timer before going into animal form after using a bola.Ok, I checked and it seems they fixed both issues with bolas.
Is casting the mage spell the same as animal form? Mage spell gives you choice of animals to be.When we gonna implement this?To fix the taming/ninja imbalance...
make a bloody ninja if u dont like it¬¬¬¬
No it is and always has been a stupid arguement.Actually, that is a good argument. That skill is out there for everyone to use. If you don't like it make a ninja.
That's the negative impact it would have on the skill?Because it is a form of yourself. No control slot needed for yourself.
Possibly, but it isn't the Ninjitsu skill that makes that template overpowered and we all know it. It's the super dragons and the extremely insane casting ability of all magic casting pets. You can nerf Ninjitsu all you like and the tamer, even without hiding and stealth, is still going to be overpowered. Thats exactly why your guildmate Shakaja was playing a tamer. He freely admitted that, even without Ninjitsu, Hiding or Stealth.That's the negative impact it would have on the skill?
lol?
You mean tamers with super dragons wouldn't be able to run away at mount speeds once their pet dies... that's the only disadvantage, I can surmise.
As can anyone, who aren't half these stratics noobs.So you're complaining that stealthing ninja tamers with greater dragons are bola'ing you while running stealthed at mount speed?
Holy frogs is there any template more specialized than that?
Firstly, you're talking about 240 points for the dragon, another 350ish for the stealth-mountspeed ninja'ing.
Without ever having faced one, I can tell you where the weak link in this template is.
There is no taming/ninja imbalance that got solved with the pet ball delay The only imbalance in pvp in regards to tamers is that pets ignore pretty much everything that other templates have had balanced - casting while moving, casting and specials at same time, damage caps, specials landing even when they missWhen we gonna implement this?To fix the taming/ninja imbalance...
This, I agree with.There is no taming/ninja imbalance that got solved with the pet ball delay The only imbalance in pvp in regards to tamers is that pets ignore pretty much everything that other templates have had balanced - casting while moving, casting and specials at same time, damage caps, specials landing even when they miss
