Subject: Are we Hybrids?


I can back this up as well with 100% certainty. Over the past couple of
months, the only casters who have died in groups I was with were both
enchanters. In both situations, my party got a very bad pull, the
enchanters did AE mez and ended up dying because they didn't keep the mobs
mezzed (bad move on the enchanters part) and the tanks couldn't taunt the
mobs off of them when they broke out of the mez. Not once has any other
caster class died. I don't even keep count now of the number of times I die
per level.
