Quote:I don't see how Engineering would become a "required" arena profession at all. Like I said, I think if someone is willing to throw bombs and grenades that cost a fair amount of money, then they should be allowed to. It's their gold and time. Why is an Engineer's gold and time worth less than a Blacksmith's?
And I can wear the lovely mooncloth robes that my profession allows me to create. Its the consumeable part of the confessions that they've removed.
Don't get me wrong. As a paladin I *have* to stand still and have LoS on my targets in order to heal them. I have one instant cast heal that is on a 14 second timer. I pillar hump as a part of my role in the arenas. I would dearly love to have a way to, at least for a little while, get away from the melee so I can do my job and heal. In BGs the nets allow me to use that as a means of getting distance from a rogue or a warrior. But having to face engineering stuns/disorients or someone potting at the last second in Arena is not my idea of skill.
