ISS and Lack of damage

Iss Enchanter Started Last reply 12 posts
My main concern is the overall lack of Damage a ISS can do in combat or pvp.
I know Iss are a support class but the truth is they still have to solo. Now i have played my toon for a while and think i know what im doing against Mobs so when im fully buffed and using Rss with skills and i do from 17 hp damage to as high as 300 hp. now that just sucks.
So what im trying to say is if any other Classes are fighting in the same area as Iss you can see them kill so much faster then you because the lack of damage being done, there for the other toons will level faster and have a higher drop rate for item. I know you are going to say but they need to replenish there mp but with all the mp pots and other way of getting mp back fast they can hunt faster, harder and lvl faster then the Iss. Something need to be done about that !
Can you specifify what level are you, what mobs you're hiting? Last i remember iss hiting for 17dmg was a lvl 89 on guilotine fortress and that's like 6-7 levels diference.
Your grammar is horrible. I cringed reading your post. Very hard to understand with the improper use of then (supposed to be than) and there/their.

Other classes will not have a higher drop rate. If a certain item drops with a certain probability, it will be the same probability for every class. I'm not taking into consideration marph runes or vitality though.

If you are only hitting mobs for 300 with crippling attack or shadow blade then those mobs are probably higher level than you. Where are you leveling? What color name do the mobs have? What level are you?

Stop trying to solo with an ISS, find a party. I understand from 85-90 it can be tough because people box them, but you have 2 kartia (well 3 now if you're lucky or you pay) and nursery, which all give pretty good xp. Solo open field xp is just a waste of time, especially on an enchanter.

It's because hunting faster than someone else means more probability to drop something.

That is not what he said. Getting more drops from killing more mobs does not affect drop rate. It's possible he actually meant that.

lol go exp dd, you already have box chanter
If you want to solo with ISS, just box a DD, like all DDs-nukers that have boxed ISS for solo.
As Iss Enchanter when i have to solo exp ( for exemple in BloodySwampland) i do decent damage.
Think of this in this way : Iss enchanter with self buff kill as fast as other class with self buff.
The difference is that now, everyone has a IssBox, so they are buffed like you but have more skills/capacity for killing mobs.
Try to look a Feoh or Othell without any buff except self buff and you'll have a big smile on your face.

Remeber that you have 3 different harmony and switch can help to kill mobs faster.

As I said, everybody has a ISS box, so if you are a ISS and you are crying because you can't deal enough damage for solo and there is no party for you on that moment, just stop crying and level up a DD to help you killing mobs, while your buffer gives buffs.
Or simply party with a DD.
You know, if you have some1 to talk its even better. Especially in a mmo ;)
