This skill need a much bigger area affect. specialy in the new big 12vs12 combat, minions masters is what you need for winning. and the only skill i know of that can counter it is veratas aura..

Have you ever heard of simply killing the MM and letting the minios kill the other team? Especially considering the fact that there will be barely any extra healing if any, sure if you leave the MM alone they are good, but simply kill him and they hurt the other team a lot more then you.

Verata's Aura has a large area of affect.

That's not the only counter to it. There's Edge of Exticntion, Corpse Controll, killing the minion master, fire, smiting, Verata's Gaze.

i think Veratas Aura is bugged. No matter how close i stand to a minion, it just doesnt work. (and that why i think, you think Veratas Aura has a small radius)


P.S. With 30 Vampiric Horrors your also pretty hard to kill ^^

It works fine, the bug is that the minions dont change to your sides colour event though they are now hostile to the enemy.

I used it this afternoon. It rules It's so funny to see necros getting owned by their own minions. Poor guy must not have understood ^^

If verata's aura ends and you recast it, they do not rejoin your side. It is bugged.

Doubt it. I used Aura in middle of pack of horrors/fiends, they didn't change color, and I still could target and attack them.

Bugged, not, not 100% sure.

Change the color of minions in fights when someone takes the control, please, Anet.

and with Dark Bond and Infuse Conditions up = gg

countering Verata's Aura is simple...have an SS with Verata's Aura...simply archane echo it while not SSing

Killing the Necro is harder than it may seem, especially if they bring Taste of Flesh and are body blocked by their army of minions.

I wonder if we'll start to see more smiters in there just to counter MMs.

Mo/R Smiter with Balthazar's Aura and EoE if you want to go super specialized.

{Edit}

Just tested it.

Played a Smiting Beastmaster with Balthazar's Aura and Edge of Extinction. I dropped about 15-20 fiends all at once. It was nice

It doesn't help that you can call in team chat to kill the MM and nobody will help you.

I had a Kurzick match where to Luxons had two MM and we had no corpse control. They completely annihilated us. The only match I've been in that was comparable was when 8 members of our team left in the first minute.

O.o don't tell me you were in the same group as me in that MMx2.Was it the map with dragon hatchling? (or it could have been that 2 MM party together and played for like 50 games)

Don't think I remember anyone's name thou.

It was after that, I decided to bring Signet of Creation with me whenever I go to alliance battle.
