The foe attacks not the "marker", marker punishes.Your system:8 defenders sourround a medium sized foe. The foe attacks any one of the defenders, he gets punished 7 times. That is punishment stacking.Ok, now with a DM that often doesn't attack the defender will probably come to the conclusion that defenders can now easily outdamage strikers.I question the statement that there is no reliable way to make opponents slowed. Psion LVL3 at-will force hammer area burst 1 within 10; Seeker Grappling Spirits LVL1 at-will Ranged Weapon; Invoker LVL1 at-will Grasping Shards area burst 1 within 10. There are probably more powers that can slow at-will.And you can absolutely do things while slowed, no one said you can't. Are you doing something efficient would be the better question. There are classes that have a hard time getting a good ranged attack that is usable at-will - like Chaladins.And making a well-rounded char as well as a party is a good idea but that doesn't change the fact that slowed UEoE will take the fun away from most melee chars even those with ranged options b/c they are probably still w/o ranged powers.</blockquote>
