Thread: Solar Beam...

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Default Solar Beam...

    ...AKA "Death Star standing by for ignition".

    Instant Cast, targeted, 30 yard range, 1 minute cooldown
    "You summon a beam of solar light over the target enemies location, disorienting all enemy targets under the beam for 3 seconds and silencing all enemy targets under the beam while it is active. Solar Beam lasts for 10 seconds."

    Druid Boosting Process: Engaged!


    But in all seriousness, this is amazing. Diminishing returns what? You could setup a focused round robin key with 4x Druids so that as soon as their healer came out of it he gets hit by another one--It's targeted, not GROUND targeted. Or, alternate Solar Beam with Cyclone.

    Imagine what a BG is going to be like with 4x Druids and a healer. Not only will you be able to completely violate people with your ridiculous damage but their casters (offensive and defensive) will be silenced and/or disoriented while you're doing it. What, you got rooted in my SOLAR BEAM OF DEATH? No Frostbolt for you!

    <---Is very excited.

    This seems like an interesting spell, I'm assuming that only the intial hit of the beam will cause the 3 second disorient effect but the fact that it sticks on the target and moves with them is pretty cool. Also curious as to what the radius of the beams AOE will be, even if it's a mere 5yards that could even prove pretty handy as a defensive anti-multimelee tool for multibox caster groups.

    yeah it will not move with them. it will stay on the spot they were, if it moves with them, we are all dead in the water and should all cancel our accounts right now.

    This is a very bad change for us btw, yes fun if you are running druids, but on our shamans this is going to suck badly.

    I believe the way that it functions is:

    You target a player and SOLAR BEAM their face. The beam AE is centered on where that player was and remains centered there. So as a player (hopefully snared) is trying to run out of your SOLAR BEAM no cast zone you can hit them with another, and another, and another...

    I get all tingly thinking about it.

    4x Druids are going to be insane. Insane.

    The only class that can tank, melee dps, ranged dps, or heal--Now with a Death Star (Tm).

    Depending on the radius of the stationary effect... and the area in which you Starfall, there might not be a lot of safe places to stand.

    Another toy is definitely nice.
