I agree, nowadays it's awesome ;) But back when there were 2, 3... MAYBE 4
groups in lower guk, screech was a surefire way to clear the entire zone ;)
We tried real hard to avoid killing 15 or 20 people ;) Dirge may not have
been the only way, but it was a good way.

By the way, does anyone here use dirge? I'd like to find out if it really
lost it's taunt factor... used to be a pretty nasty taunter... if that is
gone I REALLY want to know why.
