I just hate the "interrupted" when casting something, since I'm a cleric I rely on skill cast, if I get 2/4 skills interrupted... I will surely die LOL so please it would be a good idea to remove that.

Keep the "esc" interruption though, that is good, works for running away from melee mobs x_x

    O-o a barb can kill a wiz on 2-3 hits.
    And again, playing a magic class has its cons as well, such as low HP if low HP = 1 hit k.o. :P so its not OP

    melee classes also dont have anywhere near the damage output of caster classes, especially pure-int wizzies. the interrupt chance is a way to balance that

    Only if they give magic a chance to miss depending on the caster's accuracy.

    that would make no logical sense.
    you can't be like "ZOMG AIM FOR GUYS HEAD" and hit his ear =\

    Int is int.
    you interrupt the spells, you break the class.

    The only time I find interruptions in PWI annoying (as a veno) is in rebirth. Stupid eye keeps interrupting my nova. No interrupting/dex for accuracy for anything else is stupid.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    It was a joke. I had thought that the ridiculousness of it would give it away.b:sweat

    Interrupting skills makes sense (as much sense as a game can) though. Let's say you were concentrating on something (could be anything: driving, drawing, channeling a spell to fry you enemies to a crisp, playing violin, etc) and someone hits you with a baseball bat. Do you really think you could keep concentrating on that one thing?

    How about if the person hits you with a bat "below the belt"?

    Though melee skills do not have a long casting time like wizard or cleric, so you can cast it again in no time, but casting time + delay + interrupted, is not a good thing =.=

    the point is, if you make it so you can move around while casting, melee would go up->use skill, caster moves away while channeling, melee skill gets interrupted because target has moved out of range-> more chasing to get in range again

    Never said anything about channeling, I'm saying the interruption of skills.
    The channeling delay can be modified with equipment, so I'm good with it, as long as my skill will be casted and not cancelled by some random reason.

    X_x'
    me suggest you learn more about this game and level up first then start making suggestions....
    try to see if a barb can 2 hit...even 20 hit a 90+ wizard with decent gear.
    b:shocked

    also learn to kite your not a barb you shouldn't be tanking enough to be interrupted like that. Besides, you can't be interrupted if the monsters can't attack you.
    darthpanda16: Firefox crashed on me. Aryannamage: I don't think I am a GM that would be new.
    Hawk:Do this. closing thread
    frankieraye: I'll see if we can replace the woman with a stick figure and the tiger fangs with marshmallows.//Issues like these need to get escalated quickly to minimize the damage.
    Kantorek: Yeah.. you should try it. It's awesome.
    Sihndra: Nope- not currently possible under any circumstances. Sorry.
    LokisDottir: I mean...not haunting the forums, nope nope..
    Konariraiden: You don't know what you are up against. You will lose.
    Waiting for...Hamster Packs!
    58% chance to get tokens
    41% chance to get an all class pet hamster....but they has already been freed by the magic hamster.
    1% chance to get ban hamstered with the message "Hamsters United!"

    Exactly. The only good mob is a dead mob, so kill it before it becomes bad.

    lol, 2-3 hits? please, get over yourself and lvl up. 50s are no lvls to judge classes.
    and no interupt? man, that would mean that I can cast ultis in TW without anything to stop me. Well, I tell you, not interrupt will just make wizards over 90 overpowered. The only way to escape a wizard is to interupt him. If a wizard can cast freely spells, no class can stand a chance.

    I just ignore the interrupting, just run away out of the mobs attack range (like using distance shrink for wizzez) and recast the spell, I never died, even if I ever had like an interrupting one after anotherb:thanks
