Personally I'm going to take all this with a grain of salt. Like some paladins on the EQ live forums said if we start slaying for 12k or so people will be screaming for the nerf bat, especially if there's actually places where (*gasp*) it's even semi-useful.

If it remains unnerfed a week after release I might consider it. I'm sure we remember the OoW release after all....

At it's current form it has been parsed by one of the top Paladin from PoN, Caladel and it only increase max slay by about 11 percent, so you won't see the real big numbers for sure. It does increase it's frequency, if it stays at current form, I am happy with it. More frequency than the occasional big numbers are more satisfying.

There just isn't that many undead in the game for people to worry about a skill that only work on about 10 to 15% of the mobs in EQ. LDoN is probably the last expansion that featured major presence of undead in a zone.

All in all it is a fun skill, but not game changing.

Aye, but people are claiming new zones with rss exp that're 100% undead, which means our abilities could actually become genuinely useful, and not just a gimmick.

OMG that's so unfair.. imagine picking on a single class like that.

I just bet you wish you had manaburn, all your mana for less damage than a normal nuke critting. Now ThAT is POWER !!!
