SoW Casters UNITE!Follow

Well at least we got one thing established. I'm not the one saying "SoW saved my life countless times". Use your brain or whatever you keep in it's place and avoid this scenario.

And the word "should" implies obligation. There is no obligation, even to the radically changed stance you are now adopting.

You are just reinforcing the mindset that Dothammer is complaining about. That any SoW caster is obliged to cast it on anyone who asks. Well sorry. It's nothing to do with power. Most of my characters don't have SoW - they do fine without it.

In fact they do a lot better than someone who has been permanently SoWed from early on and whose response to any situation is to use it to run to zone. Dothammer is right to call it "tough love". They'll be better for it and learn many useful skills.

Question for you then, could he cast sow if he wanted to?

In case you're having problems coming up with the answer, it is no.

Maybe 120 PP is a lil low for a SoW, should I charge like 175 PP instead? LOL, I can not believe how much of a $hitstorm this somewhat innocuous thread started!

Could I go home and log onto my Beastlord and sow myself and other People. Right Now the answer Is NO

OH yeah did I say NO

You know, it occurs to me that if everyones brother started a guild, you'd have the most elite guild ever formed in EQ. Just an observation.

Ya but they would all be GMs and their bank would have about a gabillion plat in it.

Can the beastlord cast sow? Is his character a beastlord? Is he playing the beastlord class?



Yes, so next time dont get that Temp, Kei, Rez etc etc. Those are w/o a doubt NOT within your limitations.

Listen i am tired of arguing, if you dont want to cast sow because you choose to be an *** then my hat is off to you. If what you reply with is " Well your class cant cast that spell so live without it". Then it explains your mindset.

All of you arguing with me, really stop and look at what you are arguing about. Really look at it.

I am out, it was fun for the most part.

Never ask for Temp either. You DO NOT want to get me started on that one.

Nope. I'll take the bit where you at last tell the truth and leave out the padding. I am not answering your question because it is irrelevant. You may want it answered but it has no bearing on anything else. Again you are the one who has done this - in your own words - "countless times". You are advocating using SoW to run away as a regular strategy. Do you deny this?



You TOLD me that you want to use a word with a perfectly good and well understood meaning to mean something different? I don't think so. "Should" is an awful lot stronger than "nice"



Actually you're the one arguing. I'm just pointing out the lack of joined-up thinking. This is about the 4th time you've said "that is the point" and each time it was different. I think you've lost the point in there somewhere. Perhaps you should just carry on SoWing everyone who asks you - politely - to come to Katta and SoW them while you're exping in Ferubi.

I'm sure your group is very understanding - "Hey guys sorry to leave you sitting on your hands with no healer but I have a newbie to SoW. It's only a 4.5 second cast so I can't say no"

Seems to have touched a nerve.../em bows

Lets go up a level.

If YOU want to be stingy with SoW, pay out on rude people, go anon the whole time or behave in any related way, go for it. You won't build rep, but you'll have a quieter time. Your choice, lots of reasons to choose either approach.

I'm stunned you think this freedom gives you a right/entitlement/invitation to try and organise ALL OTHER SOW CASTERS into supporting your point of view. THAT is ridiculous. Post to say "thats it, no more sow, here are my rules". No worries. Post to say "here are my rules you all should follow them" and you just get an official /yawn from me. Go play the game your way, I kinda like mine.

Did I get in his face about what kind of Enchanter doesn't have all his spells? No. Did I call him an *** for not 'helping me out'? No. Would having enchanted mithril 'save my life'? Maybe, with the gear I was going to make...



Somehow I think youre missing the point of this thread. The point of the thread was to stop sowing for ppl who ARE jerks. Not to stop entirely, but to stop helping those people who think it is their god given right to get sow from YOU because you have the spell and they dont.... and F**k you if you dont sow me right away mentality.

So youre in the same boat from what Im getting but youre getting your wires mixxed. Try rereading the thread before you start ******** ppl out. Going crazy on someone shows not that you have an intelligent point but that you cant make one since you're attacking anyone who doesnt automatically agree with you.
