[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7824582, member: 6919838"] "One thing at a time, hey? We're allowed to fix X even if Y is still broken. That's how progress is made." But viewing things in isolation and judging them as a problem - that is often a very flawed way to judge and fix in a complex system. If "fixing" this feature means the players still do the same thing that was defined as a problem by different means then all you have done is hold them "I prefer you fo it this other way" or " I dislike when warlocks do this but it's fine when others do it. " Moreover, is what a thing viewed in isolation sedn asxdoing really worse or more problematic that the rest of things others can do with the same action, etc at the same tier? How many ways can clerics or druids or sorcerers best the same "problems", just in different ways? "One thing at a time" is fine as the way you peel potatoes... not fine as the way you pick your menu. Tiers-2-4 have a great many ways to bypass the tank-screenz non-tank formation (TSNTF), so, changing this one method of doing it doesnt solve the problem, just says this wont do it. The number of changes needed to preserve the sanctity of the TSNTF to tiers 2-4 is, well, likely just not going into tiers 3--4 and most of 2. Seems more like the problem bring fixed is not that the tier-1 tactic of TSNTF does ensure through tier-4 but that you dont like warlocks foing it in with repelling specifically. Maybe if tanky fighter hot an automatic anti-teleport field? [/QUOTE]
