Yeah I think it's Sarcasm...don't forget to swap out your Haggle item...

Which is why I added the bolded part. I couldn't tell at whatever time I wrote that what it was.

On second note, still /signed on removal of DP from PVP. And I am still a level 20 Cleric.

Alrighty, at the risk of neg rep I'm going to toss out my 2c. Now I'm one of those pesky anti-PvPers and yes, I'm in your thread with an opinion.

Here we go, in my opinion the ONLY time a spell or ability should be blocked in the pit is if it can be used to grief another player. Period. End of Line. No ifs, ands or b-b-buts. I believe this was the case with certain spells that would immobilize players without killing them thus keeping them from leaving the pit area. Getting killed by a spell or ability in the pit is not being grieved. Some spells have saves others do not. That's the way it goes. The pit isn't supposed to be fair or balanced. It's an afterthought tossed in for killing time. I'm sorry if you keep getting dead in there but again, getting killed in the pit is not the same as being grieved.

I'll say it again, if a spell isn't being used to grief players there is no need to block it.

Just my 2c,

I'm not going to neg you, I'm going to + you because I completely agree.

hmmm iirc there used to be a bard on my server who would drop down sing w/ an impossibly high dc then dance everyone who annoyed him and leave them there....

[KillEveryone]

It is this kind of posting that makes me want to see all PvP removed from DDO.

Really, if you are going to have any kind of real PvP, everything should be allowed.

Instant death, Divine punishment. Anything. This is what PvP should be, not nerf this for PvP, remove this from PvP.

so...

/not signed

I don't want to see any spell, ability, enhancement, or feat removed from PvP.

[protokon]

all the DOT spells need to be removed, its just ******** to kill someone and stand there just to die from the same thing because they cast it on you before they died.

DP is definitely the most painful one (at least the electric/cold ones can be reduced)

[Bodic]

ok I like my FvS and I love DP
dont mess with my DP for the sole reason of PvP I dont want it broken in PVE on accident.

Also Ioun stone/Mantle comes to mind and well that self same FvS/Cleeric probably did you in prior to DP you just get eaten up faster, but when that Divine has more HP than you..........

and trust me I know a sexy dwarf FvS that can eat crit sorc polar rays.

nobody here said they wanted it adjusted in PVE. this is the pvp forums, in this thread were talking specifically about DOT spells being usable in the lobster (and other brawl areas) being so broken it ruins the fun of even being there.

there's no argueing that pvp is balanced/not balanced, because it will never truly be balanced - but thats not really what were asking for. playing a divine myself, i love the spell - but its use in the pit is just ********.

if the spell would end as soon as the caster was dead, that would be a whole lot more acceptable...or just get rid of it's use down there altogether.

Then you have a case for "Please block <insert spell/ability here> because it can be used to grief players" thread. If disco ball is being used to grief players then I agree, block it. I'll 'sign'. However, this thread is about "Please block <insert spell/ability here> because it is killing me" and I'll stand by my above opinion. On a side note I'm surprised this thread is still here. I kinda forgot about it... well a little more than 'kinda'.

When you consider the fact that there are 87 other spells and abilities that "ruin the fun of even being there", then I don't see why Divine Power should get special treatment. Yes, I know you have given specific reasons. I just don't find any of those reasons compelling.

However, this thread is about "Please block <insert spell/ability here> because it is killing me"

Fail. Please re-read the post - i certainly dont mind dying int he pit. I am actually ameanable to Protokon and a few otehrs adjustment - at least let the spell die with the caster.

My apologies if I'm missing something here but your OP wants to block DP because melees have no defense against it. Now this next part may be an assumption on my part, however I'm guessing that the result of this lack of defense is getting killed. Hence my impression that this is just another "Please block <insert spell/ability here> because it is killing me" thread.

Anyway, I stated my opinion in this post. There's not more I can say and remain on-topic. Although I am a little curious as to how Flesh to Stone being used to grief players by locking them down differs from using disco ball to immobilize them. I vaguely recall that victims of FtS couldn't even log out of the game but I could be wrong.
