Effect: N/A

What is this? Some kind of joke? What's the point learning it if it has no effect?

    I really dont think so...

    I notice absolutely no difference in swim speed between my 32 venomancer and one that I can roll in 2 seconds.

    No effect, if you actualy read the discription is state N/A as in non-applicable....

    Long time ago it used to have an effect, the same as barbs still have, but it was removed about the same time as they removed the reflect on bramble in pvp....

    Its a racial skill for the untamed.

    Strangely, works just fine for Barbs (but not for Venos)

    So, basically "PWI" is just too damn lazy to fix it.
    (if it works with barbs should work with venos as well, no lame excuses regarding this topic.)

    Could really use that speed in the water sometimes too - lack of good water pets = having to run off quite a bit >.<

    It use to increase swimming speed. That's what I saw in the description when I bought it. = -_- = Not cool that it was changed without warnings at least.

    There is nothing to fix, the skill is not broken, it simple does not apply to venos. They remove its effect, and change the description to match it (non-applicable), so it is not broken, just disabled.

    Lol, it's broken, but instead of actually fixing it, they changed the description so they don't have to troubleshoot. It's easier for the devs that way.b:chuckle

    Funny...a squad I was doing bosses with last night was talking about this, and I was blown away. Wouldn't have bought the damn skill if I'd actually read the description instead of it's title. =/

    From what I heard, they removed it since it gave venomancer too much of an advantage, mainly in dragon temple which is open water pvp, and you fight to get the chests containing rare/valauble items.

    That's just what someone told me though, it sounds valid.. but .. that's only one thing really. Barbs are faster than v8s on land, but they're also just as fast in the water..
    who's OP now?! D:

    It is because not all Elfs upgrade their wings some keep the natarul white ones for good with maxed flight mastery.It is their only set of wings.I still have mine if I fell like using them.

    You're stupid. Its an UNTAMED racial ability. Venos are untamed, no? Then it should work. If you dont agree with that, go roll a human.

    Read the skill description. It clearly says Non-Applicable. Therefore there is nothing to fix, since in order to fix something it would have to be broken. This feature was REMOVED, for whatever reason....

    If you want the skill back, than ask for that, but do not ask for something to be fixed when it was removed.

    It is the same as brumble reflect not working in pvp, only the damage reduction works. There is nothing to fix there since the devs removed that feature, therefore it is not broken (so nothing to fix), if you want the reflect to work in pvp, you would be asking to get that feature back, not to get the skill fixed.....

    Then it should be removed from barbarians as well, seeing as its a racial ability.

    This would be like taking away shadowmeld from night elf females in WoW just because theyre female. ITS A RACIAL IT SHOULD WORK.

    Is bramble a racial? NO. Its a venomancer ability. SWIMMING MASTERY IS A RACIAL.

    It's all in the name of balance. Once upon a time it was a racial abilitiy, now it's a barb only skill.

    Got a laugh out of the level 32 veno telling a level 81 veno to go roll a human xD;
