    Default Okay, this has gone Too Far...

    In CTF when you're having a good 5v5 game. You will always find 'The Slaggers' those who permanently stunlock you, using Slag's Arcane Ability. Obviouly Slag is a good pet for mages, with the stun and all. BUT, IMO only the mages should be using this pet. Not the WHOLE team.
    5 slag coordinated + fb's coordinated. 2 mages. That will end up in permastun.

    I like my games to be more leaning towards who has the more skill, instead of 'let's-see-which-mages-can-release-fb-first. AKA. Lets see who can stun the most/first

    It's probably only be complaining about this, but my games seems to have become like this:

    (Red)Player 1: "OMG! Slag, I can't even move!
    (Red)Player 2: "Guys all use slag!
    (Red)Player 3: Don't you have Slag?

    My proposal is that Slag's stun gets a nerf. Instead of the 5-or-whatever sec. Make it minimum 0,5-1sec.

    I know it says only a slight chance to panic. Usually 1v1 slag fails because of Malison's dodge. But in big groups, Malison's buff wears off too quickly and everyone ends up immobile.

    I like slag because when it stuns, it allows me to specifically target which team member to eliminate first.

    Slag is a paradox in AL pvp. People choose run with Slag because well... everyone else has one. Stun or be stunned. Kills eventually happen when everyone's Slag is on cooldown and/or the Warriors screw up their shield sequence.

    The whole thing does kind of suck, but I doubt anything will be done about it. Slag is probably one of the best selling plat pets in the stable.

    Slag also prevents heals pierce attacks etc etc. when timed correctly.

    Pvp should be Kill or be Killed not Get lucky and stun or get unfortunate and be stunned

    - I don't have Misty, and don't plan on getting him. IMO, his stats are a huge handicap when I'm used to Malison. A waste of plats and the lvling would take forever anyways. Misty dodges 1 slag, right? Not the extra 4

    I don't really see it as that big of a problem since its a mythic pet but it is kinda way way better than ripmaw or abaddon IMO.
    I prolly wouldn't complain if it got like .5 sec knocked off the stun hehe.

    Slag as an individual is not a probelm, but when abused in big groups of 5 it's too OP.

    This sounds pretty much the same as all mages were complaining about one shot kill. There is a solution against it, but you'll have to sacrifice something (shield vs extra attack skill). Misty isnt very expensive, and yes it takes the peaks off your stats. Thats exactly the same i felt when i had to respec shield just to be able to participate in a fight at all, and not get killed on the doormat. Also the classic formation tank in front and dps behind him make it possible to avoid stun as mage or rogue by getting behind its active radius, rogues having it even easyer since they can 'dart' away from it. Tanks can survive the stun. Its only those 'rogue' rogues who run around upfront to get the most kills who'll eventually have a problem with slag. I rarely get stunned these days because i hold myself behind the front lines, although that means i'll get less kills.

    Misty makes you immune to stun for 5 seconds. Why don't you see if your tanks have them.

    How does it sound like 1-shot-complain?

    Hiding behind a tank. Slag stuns boths, tank can't heal. Rouge lures behind and kills you, while you're immoblie, as in, not able to do anything, but watch.

    Because well... I don't know 1 tank with Misty. And well, I'm not so sure the tank wants to lose his stats either..
