TA inventory clickable

[Gloriana]

Well, as someone mentioned above, there are a lot of things they said would never happened that later happened. Soulbinders! Alt Tab EQ!

[Brohg]

Inventory TA isn't an option. Entirely accepted. Time's Antithesis is still an issue, and other solutions are avialable. Shutting down discussion isn't a solution.

[Gloriana]

I'm sorry, I didn't realize giving an opinion was shutting down a discussion. I'll try to only agree with you from now on!

[Brohg]

Your "opinion" was that this discussion should close because overall the class isn't in the crapper. That's no opinion

[Gloriana]

Nope - just my opinion. I did want to share the conversation with Zajeer, what's the point of having a line to the devs if I didn't share what I hear?

I happen to like discussions. If I wanted to shut it down, I'd lock the thread.

I'm not all that concerned about ta, but then I dont have one. Yeah, I'm in a guild who's raiding time, and my chance *may* come. We're raiding with as many as 6 shamans,(10% of raid force), and theres only been one ta drop ever. My chances are not good on ever getting it. Then again, I mem both balance spells and almost always slow before the shaman with the only ta thats dropped hits em.
Not having it does not cripple me, having it does not cripple you.

[Lickity]

No, cripple was also used in hyperbole. However, that said, having it and getting use from it, prohibits you from having an item of greater stats in the slot. I am not here to say that everyone should run out and make a guild to get them one, but the things that bother me also appear to bother some of the other folks out here.

You can say that using the message boards skews the results of the voting, but the entire Top Ten phenomena is a message board creation, so it isn't any more skewed than any other thing we have come to vote on on the boards. Granted, it is a polarizing issue, but if you read the solutions we have come up with, they help EVERYONE, including those who were never fortunate to have looted a TA.

TA won't inventory click unless someone makes Zajeer "an offer he can't refuse", so the crusade needs to change to be about ways to obsolete it.

[Lickity]

So, are you advocating threatening Zajeer's life? hrmm...bit steep, but if it would get TA inventory clickable...

Actually, I really like the idea of an AA Slow a la Death Peace, don't see that it would come across extremely strong objection developer wise either, and it would help cement our place as "the slower" now that the rest of the slowing classes have gotten "resist checking" slows.

I have Epic 1.5 and am 1 fight from 2.0 which I will get done this week. At the moment I bandoleer in 1.5 for the click then back to TA until Turgurs sticks.

For me the recast delay on Discord and Malos makes the TA utterly invaluable when clearing Anguish, Tacvi, exping, DoN missions and raids.

If the recast delays on our debuffs were usable then my TA would be obsolete, but even with 2.0 I can see no way that my TA will EVER be banked or even permanently bagged.
This sort of dependancy was an issue for Bards with their sword (music effects) and Rogues with their Ragebringer (+attack effect) which were both eventually resolved though itemisation after the devs accepted that an item that old should not be required. This was also an issue for all melee with the Primal weapons which was limited to only those keyed for Sleepers, but seen as a huge issue.

From my perspective the TA is an issue that I would love to see resolved and it effects all of the shaman I know on Antonius Bayle bar one twink.

Firstly i didnt read all the posts, but main thing for me is i dont really care much, im at the point where im thinking about putting the TA in the bank and finish epic 2.0 (but its just so damn ugly).
Right now im mainly slowing using balance when grinding and VS on trash raid mobs, TA is only used for named on raids and this is why i dont feel a need to do anything about the TA. Its obsolete, end of life IMO

The title of the thread is not the only idea in it. It seems obvious everyone accepts that TA being inventory-clickable isn't going to happen. It's still a problem. Reading the whole thread instead of just snippets about the title would I think present you with a "strange" phenomenon. People With trying to help those Without while at the same time solving their own problem. This isn't a closed discussion (hopefully, despite the efforts of "f you you're too uber to have issues" people), or one running into a dead end. Just the opposite, it Started in a no-out direction "inventory TA", and tried to go elsewhere.

I'd like to petition that the title of this thread be changed to:

There needs to be a viable alternative to clicky slow

Cause then maybe we can focus on potential solutions, instead of on the problem item itself. Time's Antithesis being irreplacable is as much a problem for those that don't have it as those that do.
