Intimidate has been changed.

It now has a faster cooldown. I also heard it has a higher agro generation on it, not confirmed. Has anyone been able to test this out? My fighters intimidate with GH is 45 so I am hoping intimitanks are a more welcome addition to groups.

Heres to hoping!!

Yep, can't wait to test that out on Thursday.

• Monsters
  
  • Intimidate now generates significantly greater threat against affected monsters when used.

It worked surprisingly well. The best example was doing part 2 of the Shroud last night - single-pulled the Orthon, got him low as a group, and then I was going to keep him low while they took out the rest. Someone else had gotten aggro over the course of the fight, so I went over and intimidated. I figured I'd test the new version out, but he ended up teleporting away after the first one. Nobody else did any damage, and after a second intimidate he never even tried to leave.

so.... how did they change the 'more hate'

greater range or a lower roll needed??
my Paladin/Fighter loves intimidate but i could go for a bigger radius..... not that i'll complain either way as i would love to pull close to everything in the game off of my Cleric or Wizard/Sorceror


curious as to which or both got an upgrade as that increased hate could go many ways

Doesn't feel any (or very slightly) range improvement. Does anyone *feel* your intimidate make any improvement except the timer?

I would give more test on raid or such these weeks.

I was unable to tell if the range improved, but the timer improvement is much appreciated. I was able to keep the mobs off of a couple of barbs during a Von run last night. It made intimidate alot more fun to use.

Shroud run last night... Intimidate cooldown is much shorter. And the "hate" it generates is noticeable.
Particularly on the part 2 boss mobs. I was able to hold all 4 noticebly with only using the Intimidate button.

Big Red seemed sleightly mroe affected, but due too lousy heals the testing didn't last long... /e glare at cleric.

The more Hate, while I haven't tesed it myself, means you gain more damage from the same number of aggro, a la Paladin Divine Righteousness I.

He was sleeping this time again?

I dont' know what they were doing, but 20 seconds is a LONG time between AoE heals.
And I'm sure mashing the intimidate button hastened my departure. =)
