Then again, some people seem to be really appreciative, especially when putrid explosion or necrotic traversal goes off and drops the four Axe fiends hammering on the Elementalist...
Don't get me wrong, melee is important too... I guess...  |
I can tell when there is a mesmer doing stuff, simply because the enemy's life bar turns pinky purple
Yes, I do know that mesmer effects don't do insane amounts of damage, but at the same time, they make the job much easier. But the difference between a real mesmer and the mesmer henchman is HUGE. As i've said before, I notice that the mesmer henchman is the first to die and even when he's alive, my fights aren't that much easier.
It's easy to see if a Necro is doing their job.
Either a) You shouldn't need to heal them because they are stealing so much life.
b) They have loads and loads of summons
c) They are doing fair amounts of damage to enemies (their spells are totally visible)
If at least ONE of those things isn't happening, get a new necro on your team
It's also easy to see if a Warrior is doing their job.
Either a) They're dying
b) They're dying
c) They're dying and screaming "OMG MEDIC!"
