Actually I HAVE controlled more than 2 mobs at once. Also, with provoke you can do more than just 1:1... I have had hordes of high level creatures attacking each other. You just keep re-provoking as they die. It isn't honestly (imo) that difficult.What, you think I'm joking? Yes, really. I suppose we can agree to disagree; I don't know how you feel like you're being useful at all at crowd control when other players can kill monsters in just a couple of seconds which makes it pointless to disco them while provo only takes care of two monsters which will get taken care of by damage dealers. There is usually a slew of monsters at a spawn. Literally a crowd. True crowd control would allow u to manipulate more than one or two mobs at once. Peacemaking is just a waste of skill points unless you dont know how to run and invis when youre getting blown up. I'm sure that as for other players perception of you, you're useless, all you can do is heal them and usually players take care of that themselves or run out of ur screen. And yes, I am also a mage, and I guess I should get a set of SDI gear and slayer spellbooks, etc., but I plan on dropping Eval eventually anyways. So what, you want to be able to Disco players? I'm all for it.![]()
If you can't use the template well, maybe you should find another template? I have NEVER found barding to be useless unless: 1) it is in PvP, or 2) TPTB decide to make something that you have zero chance in provoking.
I think certain things SHOULD be extremely difficult to bard. Look at the above greater dragon example. It SHOULD take multiple attempts for me to work them. THEY ARE GREATER DRAGONS. If I wanted something that wasn't a challenge, I'd just ask the dev team to merely let me click on monsters, automatically making artifacts and gold be neatly deposited into my bank.
As far as me being useless, that's the last thing people think of me in a PvM scenario (again, besides something utterly non-bardable). I suppose you are right, we will indeed have to agree to disagree.
(By the way, I'm not stating bards DON'T need love... they could stand to get some attention after years of nothing. I just don't find my skills as useless as you do, apparently.)
