So forgive me if this has already been discussed (and if it has, please point me to that thread!), but I think it’s a little ridiculous how Dragon’s Tooth has been left in its current state and has been allowed to operate beyond the limits of LOS. Losing a superior arrow cart which is out of range and out of sight behind a wall is a little irritating, frankly.

Not asking for it to be nerfed, rather change it to a ground-targeted AoE or make it operate in conjunction with the limits set by LOS.

It should be blocked by solid objects same as any other ability.
I think the problem arises when you cast it without target, as it will then land straight in front of the caster at max range, if this is out of LoS it will still go there.
All in all it should be quite an easy fix for them.

Every skill that hits ‘from the sky’ has this behavior. Its pretty nice and i hope no nerf to this.

They could fix it by making it ground targeted… Oh wait.

as caffy said.. making it a GT wold make it more usefull for ele (a targeted skill with that much delay is pretty much useless agist anything with brain and eyes… ) and also avoid this behavior that is argued since quite some time…

And if they make it ground targeted, then the masses will cry when we are actually able to hit them on the move with it.

you cant really complain about dragons tooth in its current state because its borderline useless

jump into spvp with a friend, have him WALK forward not run and then cast dragons tooth
the ability casts so slow its borderline useless

Dragons Tooth for me is nothing more than an additional blast finisher. It’s just unreasonable to expect any semi-decent enemy to wait around for it to hit them.

Regarding taking out those hidden arrow carts? Well imo I think it’s kind of nice for there to be at least one skill out there that can get that siege so brilliantly placed that no other skill from any other profession could. Keeps things sorta balanced… but that’s just my opinion.

Remember, things like this work both ways… that’s why I don’t quite understand why people cry for so many nerfs on the forums, if something works well against you, use that back against them. Not mocking you for bringing it up by any means, just sayin. If you’re an ele, use it back against your enemies. If you’re not an ele, make sure your fellow guildies who are know to use it back against your enemies.

Actually, when I first made this thread, it was just after one of my super arrow carts died to an onslaught of Dragon’s Teeth. Now I’m pretty indifferent towards it, so I don’t really mind if they leave it as it is lol. Strange to think it’s only been 5 days… you’ll be missed, super arrow cart.
