#31384, "In one sense I agree, in another I don't..."


          

... The past year I've met at least 4 different hero invokers that each time they've faced me just spammed stoneshatter until they get the desired gear to explode, or realize that I ain't wearing it before they word out... And that sucks.

BUT, using it as a tactical weapon (not as a one-trick pony thing) is a perk for invokers, and should be. The few hours Arrna had a certain piece of gear she REALLY was on her toes when invokers were about. And with the certain restrictions of that item made it a real tactical choice when to wear and not to wear it. (Add in a thief with that invoker...) I had that piece of gear stolen from me no less than 3 times due to removing it to save it from stoneshatter.

So it's both a good element of tactical diversity and it has the potential for griefing bastards.

Just as dent is for mace specs. (Denting those strange bracers, or that heavy piece of gear that give much -AC for the gates of the forge warrior you're facing.)

It's a two-edged sword... If the griefing aspect could be removed form both and yet keep the tactical diversity... That would be great!
