The other big damage spells(Force Shock etc...) that disrupt are resisted
too often in PvP to be reliable. The only one that I have used with success
is Tishan's Clash which also is resisted so I use it with caution.
As for Rallos Zek, yes I do see many people quitting and I think that their
reasons for the most part are valid. The two most powerful classes for PvP
and dueling in my opinion are the Wizard and Druid(People say Necros too but
I haven't seen enough of them in PvP situations to make a judgement on
them). There IS skill involved in dueling but the classes weren't designed
for balance in PvP. If a caster knows what they are doing, A melee type
doesn't stand a chance. I have seen a few duels where a well played melee
class destroys the caster. A monk with JBoots is a hard fight for a caster
in an enclosed area... I have also seen a level 31 Bard annihilate a 35
Wizard. And that fight was won with skill and knowledge.
At least these quittin guys are gettin some cash sellin their characters on
Ebay =)

ahhh. i like that. and u can cast about 15-20 of those suckers too for a
nice 83dmg. any other spells that disrupt? from what i can tell, force
shock and frost shock knock u back a step or two when cast???? i think we
need another stun spell somewhere between tishan and markar (lvl 20 and lvl
49).

ps. euros, ur on rz right? im noticing a LOT of ppl quitting because of the
terrible combat engine and imbalance in PvP combat. seems like if
everything isn't perfectly setup (ie. a duel) then the outcome is 99%
predictable (save for guild wars which are non-existent on the server now).
