Tone down Energy Vortexes (EVS)

Not crying or anything, but I don't see any reason why they run so fast. They hit fairly hard, poison, attack extremely fast, all while running at close to mounted speed. Should tone them down a bit. I would suggest by making them run at least half as slow.

People's thoughts?

Lol seriously? Is this the same people that usually say "deal with it" when they hear what they call trammies cry about explo pots or getting pked?

Except they cost 50 mana and multiple fizzles to cast and you can dispel them with 20 mana? Yeah, definitely OP.

I'll just copy and paste this discussion the first time one of you l33t pvpers tell some poor trammie to adapt or gtfo

Even without fizzle it's still 50 mana vs 20 mana. Anyways yes, pvp needs balance but there are far bigger problems than EVs to look at

Well a few considerations. Its 20 mana IF you have magery and IF you can get away from it long enough to cast dispel. For a mage, this can be difficult depending on the situation, for a dexxor(that does have magery) it is twice as difficult. Also, dispel chance of player vs EV is not 100%.

Well vs a dexer with a fast weapon it's Also VERY difficult for the mage to cast a lvl8 spell without interruption

In my experience, anyone who casts an EV during PvP is either fighting a total newb, or is a newb themselves. I haven't had to run from one that I remember, so I can't comment on the whole run speed, except that I don't think a players pet should be able to outrun an EV. I agree, also, that nerfing the EV's run speed isn't very high priority when it comes to balancing PvP.

Are you contending that a mage *should* be able to cast a 5 second spell in the middle of pvp - and since they cannot that their level 8 spells should be OP?

EVs are typically casted off-screen and then dropped after moving onscreen with their target. There is no chance to disrupt with this method.

IMO though, I think that the issue isn't so much their speed, but the fact that they only target enemies and not everyone.

Also i think they should be full on EVS like they used to be and attack everything inducing the caster if that is the closest target. Not these trammy evs who dont even attack blues if u are blue
