Question about gnome racial cm 'Oil Slick'Follow

#1 Jun 28 2005 at 9:21 PM Rating: Decent
Does this s* work? I got it at lvl 35 and it won't work on bandits that are lb-green. Hodstock desribes it as a snare but i notice no effect at all when I use it, only a visual black smokiness but no slowing effect on the creature. i'm not using ds or attacking just pulling with oil slick...... should i delete it?

Any kind of snare isnt worth it imo. it only makes them move slower which is usless in battle becuase once it gets hit it regains normal speed. i wouldnt rebuy it. All raciacl cms are open at level 6 and declare as lvl 1 spell excpect for the racial MC.

Did you mean to do that or something. That is seriously crazy. For the snare, yes snares are worth it and idk about your problem. I've never even made a gnome.

SK's dot/snares don't allow the mob 2 regain normal speed when hit. It works. I use to (before I deleted my 26 gno wiz, I did this at like lvl 15 and stuff lol) pull Slagbreath to either the coach or bank with it, use concussion, say Slag is my B****/or pet, and when he'd start to run back I'd use oil slick again, concussion again, and keep on keepin on. It worked on Slagbreath, a level 40 mob when I was like level 15, it was over half my level and it seemed to work on it.

used to play a gnome necro, found Oil Slick helpful occaisonaly in the early levels and in some duals. Oil Slick saved my life quite a few times in normal and pet groups below lvl49. Cyclops pet groups comes to mind now. After a few petters die from adds or bad pulls, etc and the herd of cyclops begin to attack me, I cast Oil Slick on each cyclops to slow them down as I walk away :) IMO Oil Slick seems useless for lvl8+ gnome warriors (sprint and dash) and lvl39+ gnome rogues (Vanish). If you like to duel, you can cast Oil Slick on your faster opponent, I used that technique against Humans who cast Retreat so I can slow them down so my pet can catch them lol.
