Subject: Screech 
Hail Fellow Bards,
I noticed a couple patches ago that Screech seemed ot have changed. The 
first thing I noticed that the halo effect was showing around 2 players but 
not the mob they were fighting. I was trying to save a pair of folks from a 
sudden attack when they were oom. It seemed that the range of Screech had 
taken a definite hit. I have used Screech several times, mainly in dungeons 
as a means of freeing up the Evac'er from being interrupted and nearly 
everything would run unless it resisted. Now I have to be closer to mobs to 
get the effect. It is most noticeable outdoors, maybe due to the closer 
overall quarters of dungeons. I have used Screech in dungeons where we didnt 
evac, it spaced the number of mobs beating on the group out to a more 
manageable number at a time. This depends on a place where the distance the 
mobs run and return causes no more mobs to aggro. Use with caution, heh.
Safe Travels,
