Nope, it's a spell. Not a touch skill. It's range is touch, but it's still a skill.

Use Shock, AoE on their healers (they have them, do they? if not, spike their ghostly and heal out damage they try to deal) and a mesmer with signet(s). Wards, well of profane, touchers ;d and that's it. I've met once team with 6 a/me, pretty stupid game. Kill their monks, try to knockdown assassin/interrupt him with a non-attack and non-spell skill and that's it, rinse and repeat. Or kill monks, kill ghostly and wait till the time ends. Boom, free fame ;o

Despite it's seeming appearance as a touch skill, this skill is a spell and will not remove enchantments such as Spell Breaker, Obsidian Flesh and Shadow Form.

Wiki'd.

Lol I hate doubleposts, delete my first one plx?

I could stoop to telling you "learn to play" but everyone else beat me to it. There are plenty of ways through shadow form. find one or two and use them.

make it a pve only skill. :>

Next time, mod your ritspike and bring a rt/e with Leech Signet or Shock.

I myself have faced the same problem. (Running ritspike and facing Perma SF) Yet I havn't cried about it, because I know the ONLY reason why I can't beat it, is due to the limitations of my build.
The ONLY reason why it is causing grief to you, it because you running nothing more than a cookie-cutter gimmick. If you were to run balanced, you wouldn't face the problem, because most balanced teams have direct/indirect counters. (Direct = Shock, Signets, ... Indirect=PBAoE such as Frozen Burst, Flame Djinss Haste, Arage, ...)

any1 thought of signet of disenchantment or flame djinns haste guys any adjacent spells hurt him, don't nerf just because the OP got tanked and he thinks its overpowered this has been arisen many times.

RotteN · Apr 28, 2008, 02:19 PM // 14:19

[[leech signet] can't be that hard to fit in a build, it's not like an interupt is ever useless against any build.

Gregslot · Apr 28, 2008, 02:59 PM // 14:59

Get REAL!!! Shadow Form isnt powerful!

Lets nerf Orison of Healing too! Duh!

RhanoctJocosa · Apr 28, 2008, 03:27 PM // 15:27

...

Expunge Enchantments you failures

Abedeus · Apr 28, 2008, 03:30 PM // 15:30

Expunge? It's some kind of sick joke, right?

Tyla · Apr 28, 2008, 03:56 PM // 15:56

In HA, 1 fame isn't much. Just /resign.
They would lose on any tactical map, and that's a fact.

In TA...okay you've got me stumped, /signed if they are swarming TA too.

It's because it's being used for griefing.

Sir Pandra Pierva · Apr 28, 2008, 07:48 PM // 19:48

even in TA its not hard to pack 1 KD that can go through SF. or someone with something that can go through it. Even if the monk has to go /me for leech sig or sig of disruption.

Sethellington · Apr 29, 2008, 01:47 PM // 13:47

if it's disabled for 120...60 then it won't matter anyway. no one uses SF with low shadow arts so it'll have the same recharge in the end.

That won't stop the griefers, as they usually run 12+3+1 Shadow Arts.

Omg, this thread is still alive? Just let it die the slow, pitiful death it deserves. There aren't many of these griefers out there, and if there were, as was previously stated in this thread, changing ONE skill in your ENTIRE team build would be sufficient to take care of the problem.

DarkGanni · Apr 29, 2008, 05:04 PM // 17:04

Bawwwwwww I can't kill the sin for my 1 fame. Please grow up a bit.

1. It's a game.
2. It's only 1 fame you're better off restarting.
3. Grow up and stop crying for nerfs just because you cant counter a build.
4. /notsigned

Since most of this thread seems to have been written by nine year olds having temper tantrums, my only input is that SA is amazingly annoying in RA because there's no sense in building against it as you'll be sacrificing actual, useful skills, but not building against it is an instant loss when you come up against one of these nubkins as a caster if your RA team doesn't get a half competent monk assigned to it.

Not that this abuse justifies a nerf, I'm just saying. It's really annoying and is basically only used to grief outside of PvE.

If there are so many perma sins around...take something to counter them.

Disenchantment (rit skill)

Signets, touch skills, traps and 'skills' are all effective against SF.

Tyla · Apr 29, 2008, 07:37 PM // 19:37

At all the people saying "Counter it" --
Signet of Disenchantment kills your energy, therefore bad and useless against anything else. Not to mention it gives absolutely no positive effects and has a 15 second recharge.

Disenchantment is 25 energy, it's in Communing (Meh, spirits die FAR too easily), it also dies quickly and is immobile unless you bring Draw Spirit which is also bad.

Not everyone runs trap pressure, signets, and normal skills as there are better options and just because there are a few griefers, you shouldn't have to change bars JUST for that moment wasting bar space for more *serious* matters.

The sin is only level 16.

btw, you're supposed to cover the names unless you get the permission of the people who are in the picture.
