Talk:Soul Bind

$100 says this gets a nerf after the first GvG season ends. | Chuiu 19:54, 12 April 2006 (CDT)

Ageed. This + Parasitic Bond or Wastrel's Worry and you can keep any ranger, warrior, or assassin floored for a good long time.

Yeah, definitely overpowered. Say, anyone seen how this stacks with Faintheartedness yet? --Crazytreeboy 14:41, 3 June 2006 (CDT)

When it says target what does that mean? Is it like if you start casting a hex on them? Or does it only target when you cast the hex?
 * It means if anyone casts a hex(or mabye even if someone starts to cast said hex)ST47 19:07, 9 July 2006 (CDT)

I don't quite remember this skill before, so I'm curios was it nerfed?
 * Hasn't changed since the Factions PvP event. I've very rarely seen it used.  --68.142.14.106 23:36, 4 August 2006 (CDT)

To clarify, when the person is knocked down does the hex end? If not, can you knock someone down multiple times? Kessel 08:04, 10 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Soul bind does not end when a hex causes a knockdown. You can keep hexing and knocking down until bind is removed or expires.  --68.142.14.65 14:23, 10 August 2006 (CDT)

What does this have to do w/ Wasrel's Worry? --Frvwfr2 15:17, 3 October 2006 (CDT)


 * All I can think of is that it is spammable :S Oh, and maybe it forces them to attack? But then, a warrior/assa/dervish would be attacking anyway. Asmodeus 15:31, 3 October 2006 (CDT)


 * wastels wont end early on attacks, only skills...


 * I think what they were getting at was attack skills.--Thelordofblah 19:10, 20 October 2006 (CDT)

Wastrel's Worry is never really "effective" -Warskull 21:45, 7 May 2007 (CDT)


 * I would think it would be better than Parasitic, anyway. To compare: Parasitic causes negligble degen and heals after it lasts for 20 seconds.  Thus, if you attempt to knock down your target with it before it ends, you don't get your healing.  Wastrels, on the other hand, lasts for 3 seconds or less, and because your opponent will be knocked down for 2 seconds of it, only has 1 second to avoid damage (and if the target kites as they should while the attacker is knocked down, they are unlikely to be able to get off an attack skill that quick).  Both cost 5 energy and have no recharge/ignorable recharge.  In this case, I would think Wastrels would win.  Effective in other situations or not. Twinkie Doomcaster 00:03, 12 May 2007 (CDT)


 * You were all wrong, this skill is terribly underpowered. 87.189.228.204 19:33, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * this skill is really fun in ab, really fun to keep a sin down while everyone else just pounds on them. Frzingmagma247
