Talk:Ether Seal

Two things: First, I'm not sure on the profession, I assume that its mesmer and that it used Arcane Mimicry to be able to use Chain Lightning, but I may be wrong. Second, I know that all the Ether Seals (I keep wanting to type Easter Seals) don't look like this one, if people object to the picture, than please post what you think a better one it. :)  --Rainith 14:19, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)


 * The picture should really be just the small thing around the base of the tower. Towers and seals aren't interchangable, as I tried to explain in the article.  --Fyren 14:58, 1 Sep 2005 (EST)

Species question
Well rather, I'm wondering if they take damage from Edge of Extinction if a Mursaat caster dies near it. And same question again if a Jade dies near it. -PanSola 14:59, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Skill Dispute
a) Worth noting that they'll never use Glyph of Concentration unless they are Dazed.

b) I have never ever seen them use Enervating Charge. Can someone confirm this? I'm pretty sure someone got hit by a Mursaat Elementalist and was confused. Entropy 00:36, 15 December 2006 (CST)


 * I'm going to remove it. I've fought over a hundred seals and never seen it. Good enough for me. Entropy 01:14, 31 December 2006 (CST)

Item Drops
They drop Mursaat Token sometimes. Worth adding? 24.6.147.36 14:42, 24 December 2006 (CST)


 * Talking to myself. Yes. Entropy 01:14, 31 December 2006 (CST)ç


 * Yesterday, a seal in Ring of fire mission normal mode, dropped us a purple mursaat hammer. If you want to add it. --Crigore 06:44, 29 April 2007 (CDT)

Bugged?
As I was fighting Ether Seals with my mesmer, I noticed that they had 0 energy all the time (using e-surge and e-burn), and that the Mursaat Tower effect was damaging the Jade Bows standing next to them. This was the lone Seal on Perdition Rock, during "Final Blow" quest. <--Oops, this was me. Windtalker 11:34, 16 January 2007 (CST)
 * Try it again if you can, so you can verify it was not a once off thing. -- Xeon 11:49, 16 January 2007 (CST)

Range
I just noticed, and took a screenshot of, the range of the Seal's effect. It creates a circle-thingy, so I a short distance outside it. Whilst standing here, I still lost 2 energy every second, but did not recieve -1 energy regen. Just thought it might be worth mentioning. Chiselman 18:56, 11 May 2007 (CDT)

2 Elites
They use both Mind Burn and Mind Shock. I'll get a screenshot of both and prove it. --ChristopherRodrigues 19:23, 17 July 2007 (CDT)
 * I've never seen them use Mind Burn in all my life hunting for elites in the Ring of Fire island chain... If you get a screenie, then it would've been quite recent that the change occurred. --Kale Ironfist 20:16, 17 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Maybe you were near some Imps? --Gimmethegepgun 20:17, 17 July 2007 (CDT)

Vulnerable to Knockdown
I was running my sin, and happened to use Horns of the Ox on an Ether Seal. Its skill was interrupted, which surprised me (as you can well imagine). I added Falling Spider to my skillbar and used it, just to verify to my own satisfaction. Falling hit, and I was informed that Ether Seals can't be poisoned. However, you can also add knockdown to the list of things that Ether Seals are vulnerable to. --Sqube 22:44 EST, 16 September 2007
 * Why wouldn't they be vulnerable to KD? I've known that ever since Devona used Counter Blow on it, a long long time ago...Meteor Shower rules too. Generally we assume that most creatures in GW are vulnerable to KD and only list exceptions. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 23:09, 16 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Well, Probably becuase they're BUILDINGS, and most buildings can't be knocked down. (well, they can't get up again if they do get knocked down.) --Borin Redfist


 * Er...ether seals arent buildings. I think you may be confused as to the difference between an Ether Seal and a Mursaat Tower. Also note the dates on the comments about this ¬_¬ --Cobalt | Talk  18:58, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Lag while in the Seal's effect
Does anyone else experience lag while in the seal's area of effect? I suspect it's something to do with my graphics options but I don't know what specifically. I feel the same effective slowdown / sluggishness when standing in camp fires in town. GW-Markh 19:53, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Ether seals will use glyph of concentration without being dazed. I've routinely come at ether seals on my warrior without any sort of dazed in the party and the glyph was used. 74.61.39.33 21:21, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
