Subject: Re: Verant ruined the revive line of spells


Acutally from what I heard is that due to the clerics res's the folks that
killed both of the dragons. This is what I HEARD as the story.

Wiz A dies. Cleric B casts Res on Wiz A. Wiz A sits down med 1 spell.

Case 1 spell over and over again... Dies... Cleric B cast Res on Wiz A. Wiz
A sits down and meds 1 spell. repeat until dead.

again that is what I hear.

So yet again not only do the cleric's not get an update that helps us but
one that hurts us... why is it that the other classes can have updates that
a)make a spell less likly to be resisted b)speeds up casting time, c) lowers
mana cost d)raises damage or length of duration, and e)replaces or fixed bad
spells while we get a REDUCTION in damage and our spell that defines our
class gets Fubared?????

ahhh well.
