Hmm...well, after first trying to ignore it, I now find myself using it.

Now in normal, relatively safe group situations, it *is* a bit irritating,
but I still try to take my own advice, and ignore it.

However, I've recently started to once again practice my skills at what
seems to me, the most difficult experiencing giving solo endeavor...charm
kiting. I've always had problems with it...dunno why, but I have. That
timer has made my charm kiting that much more efficient. I actually kept
going long enough to burn my entire bar of mana.

Now we just need some kind of mana regen... :)

I tried playing Talies for the first time last night since Luclin went
live. GAH. Did I mention Gah? Gah! The timer is VERY annoying! It's
also subjective, which means that if your client is in any way lagged (I
was playing in SloMo last night, it was wild) then your timer is off, too.

*sigh* Another thing that they shouldn't have messed with.
