This flux is good for the game. We needed a flux that promotes quad necro hexway and lichspike. Super necessary.

Don't think it changes anything in Aspenwood/Jade Quarry. From what I remember...

Kurzick minions in FA are obliterated by Siege Attacks. Luxon minions end up attacking the wrong targets, and are minimally effective when they manage to target gate guards due to the prolific block wards, enchantments, and aoe miss hexes. Also, NPCs make up a large chunk of the deaths, and they won't spawn minions.

In Jade Quarry, minion masters make for slow cappers, and terrible quarry holders. Other cappers can generally run past the minions and pop off the few spells it takes to cap a quarry before the minions do any real damage. Once the quarry is recapped, the NPCs shatter any protective enchantments on the minion master, and rapidly nuke them and their minions.

Now this is what I'm talkin' about.

I'll give it a go in FA and see how it is in practice.

LOL, gotta love this new flux. It's causing havoc to all the bots in JQ, they now have too many targets to choose from. Last night was in a match with 6 bots on my team and 5 on the luxons and we had to laugh as this luxon derv(real player) was running around being chased by a minion which itself was being chased by his 5 bot team mates.

What is this supposed to achieve? If you want a flux that's not really supposed to do much then don't put one in.

Outside of GvG and HA the monthly Flux is so irrelevant because, at the minute, the bots, leechers and leavers are what decide the outcomes of matches.

If only there were GMs.

I think the point of fluxes is just to mix things up a bit and provide some interesting circumstances to play in. Up until now (this is my opinion btw), the fluxes have been pretty boring and more detrimental than interesting (with the exception of the movement speed flux). I, for one, like this flux - especially when compared to the godawful flux from last month.

I have to say, this alone makes this flux worth while!, watched all the JQ bots last night go buckwild on their new minion friends. Minions + Wastrels= Dead Bots!

I was in JQ earlier and noticed this made things easier for bots... All they do is run into the centre of the shrine, blow up; rinse/repeat.
