Problem - enchanter mezzing

[janktron]

So I've noticed over the last few days that enchanter mezzing is extremely mana inefficient. I don't know if this is by design (b/c it has to be this way?) but I find myself playing my enchanter on larger pulls so i don't burn a ton of mana on nothing. What I've noticed is, say you pull 6 mobs, the enchanter will try to mez 5 of the 6 mobs. After the 1 being attacked dies, and the MT breaks mez and starts killing the next, the enchanter will immediately try to re-mez the remaining 4 mobs. There could be 30-40 secs remaining on the mez and he still trys to cycle thru each mob and re-mez. Is there no way for the enchanter to check the time left on mez? Just curious. Thanks!

Kiss pretty much designed to overkill on mezs. If its mezzed it can't kill you. It will reset timers and start over on mob death and AE mez.

Mana on live toons has never been an issue. If your chanter is running out mana you are dotting or nuking to much.

What Maskoi said. Kiss was designed to be Mez heavy. I chain pull with my group and nuke and DOT with my chanter and mana has never been an issue. She has gotten close before, but Turning GroupWatchOn on your puller and the puller will stop and let the enchanter med back to full before starting pulls again. I would rather come back to the group medding than a bunch of corpses.

gotcha, yea i guess it makes sense when you are chain pulling and semi afk. I'm on TLP so mana can be an issue when I'm crawling thru a dungeon and have constant pulls. Ill just keep doing what i am on big pulls and /mqp on chanter and manually play him. Thanks for the response guys!

If you find yourself getting low on mana I would double check you have VoP, gather mana, and second spire in your buff rotation. With those constantly cycling I have yet to run out of mana. Dotting the mob (you do not intend to mez) with Mind Storm will replenish your mana as well. Hope this helps

He's on TLP, so a slightly different situation there.

Yeah he's playing in the dark ages where people were restricted by the size of their mana pool and their mana regen. =)

I noticed the same thing (I'm also on TLP). I put an obulus death shroud on him and tried to keep my pulls 4 or under in upper end dungeons. Set Fascination to 4 So after the first one dies he will use a single mez and the timer doesn't get reset.
