Which gets rid of 2 of 3 tanking specs... something most warriors should and will have at least one of.

Ummm, is it really that unfair for a warrior to get around two rounds of attacks per invoker spell... which often does sick damage? I don't think so.
>Assassins got their kicks.
Tigerclaw is a little more useful i'd wager.
>Bards got roundhouse and another nifty little trick.
Their other nifty trick doesn't go through one of the shields. If you are a bard trying to roundhouse an invoker to death you have other problems you should be dealing with.
>Thieves got trip and cheap shot, sure you can claim that >catching invokers without fly is hard. Thats why you got >hide bucko, sneak up on them.
Yea, but arial invokers are IMPOSSIBLE to kill as a thief. Also, once you catch an invoker with his pants down he usually just starts walking around with shield of air constantly when you're around, which is an easy castable fly for invokers. Still though, I was plenty happy to see a non arial invoker around as Vhenos... but defending against them while they're prepped was literally impossible.
>Paladins can slow down casting by shield bash?
See bard comment.
>Warriors well we already went over that. >AP's can deafen an invoker. And well ap's can trip an >invoker too even if he is flying il let you figure out how >that works.
Yes, at least ap's have options. >Rangers: Hmm tricky one bearcharge is one, im not so certain >about entangle I havent played a ranger in a while. But you >are welcome to test it out.
I think there's a shield that stops bearcharge?
