Talk:Soothing Images

Foes only use this on players, never on henchies or heros.. it's F*ckin annoying >.<78.20.153.111 15:11, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Incorrect. They've used it on my Koss a few times before. The trick is, if you're a warrior or whatever, make your heroes charge ahead of you when you attack things that use this.-- [[Image:User_Vanguard_VanguardLogo.png|19px]] anguard  15:13, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * im 100% sure, it's because its AoE cuz it affected ur koss78.20.153.111 15:41, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh i just vanqed marga coast as an imbagon, and i have 2 warriors with adrenal skills in party.. they never got targetted even if i stayed behind 78.20.153.111 15:42, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * No, I remember. It was outside the Sunspear Great Hall, he got hit and I didn't because I was far enough away. Of course, I did get hit with a recast but still.-- [[Image:User_Vanguard_VanguardLogo.png|19px]] anguard  15:49, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * In hopes of settling this, I can say for certain that enemy AI will target heroes with this hex. --Kheraz Zarahi 01:39, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

They never hexed anny of my adrenal H/H .. NEVER:< only me me me i feel liek a victim QQ78.20.153.111 21:00, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I just played through Cliffs of Dohjok, and even sent my h/h in alone to test this... Koss was never hexed with this. But as soon as I ran in, I was. :/ –  Emmett  20:00, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

can ya blame them? for 15 energy and a 2 sec cast time i would want to save it for something important too.... (hint this skill could use buff.)

Do heroes use it ?My Gwen never cast "Shooting images" even when confronted by warriors only Nikademo 11:40, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

I hate this skill so bad. It's kinda OP if you ask me. 1 hex to COMPLETELY shutdown Adrenaline builds? It would be more balanced if it just halved the amount of Adrenalin gained, IMO. DevilJinKazama 16:03, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
 * There is a skill like that, it's called Soothing. Rain and Dark 18:26, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Learn to bring a hex removal if you know you will be encountering it Nay the One and Only User Nay_the_One_and_Only_SIG.jpg 04:18, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Easy for you to say you're probably a caster o__o...I even brought a hex removal monk. The 8sec rc with Fast Casting still makes 'em spam it in a few seconds... -- Anthony 16:49, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Soothing
adding Soothing to related skills. feel free to remove if you dont think it is related.--Ultima Flames 00:52, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Bug
Added bug, they dont use this on spear weileders (paragones)
 * First off "enemies" is an extremely broad term. Second, yes they do use this. I've had my paragon shut down because of this multiple times. Mirage Ibogas come to mind straight away when I hear about Soothing Images. Removing the note. ~Celestia 19:21, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
 * They use it on you because of your Warrior secondary. The AI doesn't recognize its use against Paragons.  24.197.253.243 23:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

I know Ai looks at weapons equiped and profession (BiP). They also "look" at your skills equiped (Ignorance?). So before you go assuming profession/weapon consider that if you even have one adrenalin skill on your bar they will probably drop this on you. Justice 21:25, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

So
Why isnt this used in PvP? Seems pretty good :S Reaper of Scythes **  20:01, 5 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Blind/Block can easily replace someone simply not gaining adrenalin. Its a powerful hex, just its competition has a more general useage. Justice 05:17, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Also consider that this hex only shuts down ~2 of the 10 professions of Guild Wars. Blind, Block, and other anti-melee hexes (Insidious Parasite, Empathy, Faintheartedness etc) will affect ~5 of the 10. 72.95.50.120 11:38, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Disgustingly OP?
Totally puts warriors and paragons out, how about we change mindfreeze to "target foe cannot cast spells"Reaper94 21:48, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't mind if it was gain adrenaline from attacks, but seriously? Yeah, it is pretty OP. →[ » Halogod User Halogod35 Sig.png  (talk)« ]← 21:55, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
 * This is hardly overpowered. Not being able to gain adrenaline is nowhere near as bad as not being able to cast spells. –~=Ϛρѧякγ User Sparky, the Tainted guided sig.png (τѧιк)  &larr;&hearts;– 22:12, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
 * True, considering the fact you can still hit them with a weapon that's stronger than a wand. But still. →[ » Halogod User Halogod35 Sig.png  (talk)« ]← 22:28, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, adrenaline doesn't (directly) keep you and everyone in your team alive (and SI doesn't help prevent its own removal). :P –~=Ϛρѧякγ User Sparky, the Tainted guided sig.png (τѧιк)  &larr;&hearts;– 22:42, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Um, actually, if you're a Paragon, it does, but Paragons are nerfed so bad anyways that it probably doesn't matter. I didn't think this was OP, either, until I tried to run an adrenaline-based character through NF. >_> Gotta remember to bring a hex removal skill on half the entire party, or no one's removin' this. Which is a hero AI problem, more than anything else, but still. --Isolina 09:02, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
 * One copy of Expel on a hero keeps your party clean. &mdash;  Raine Valen  [[Image:User_Raine_R.gif|19px]]  17:52, 22 Apr 2011 (UTC)
