Subject: Re: What's wrong with you people?+ Nerf reply


1. I know what alliance does, You are using it wrong,
I'll tell you now it's not broken, someone starting a
rumor that it's supposed to lower prices... wrong.
Try and Experiement (Illus maybe?). ;-)
Ok All the illusions i get IE Half elf dark elf etc...
Are VERY Useful, If going on a journey and you run out
of food or need a quest item. And no one can get it in
your group because of gaurds kos. Poof your the race.
Even to get supplies. Also to sell things.
Anyway The minor illusion i do now agree that they
screwed it up because now it's worthless (Unless in
pvp server to jump human)
Now it's just something we can't use monsters can see
you even with minor illusion on.
We were never meant to do major damage. I do agree
though the spell they should make more effective
Atleast is the Tashan type spells, So after the spell
cast we can fight things even harder than we can
handle. Enchanter should beable to make it possible
for a group of level 5's to kill something VERY red to
them instead of their spells getting resisted the
whole time.
Anyway i'm blabbering too much.
