Psychic Instability anyone????

I haven't been able to find a boss that has this skill. I haven't been able to find a location for it on the net either. No info on Wiki, no info on Xennon. Has anyone been able to cap it and if so where?

I have a sneaky suspicion its on a boss in Aborstone, but I havent gone in to the mission to confirm that yet. Just seems to make some sort of sense. A mission in which you're constantly interupted with the interupt/knockdown elite?

It's bad.

It only KDs when you interrupt a skill.

What's bad about that? Take Earthbind or some stuff like that and you can rlly make it worthwhile.

It's not in Arborstone btw. I have literally cleared everything on the map and I haven't seen the boss.

The boss was, in theory, only recently added. The only place the skill has been seen is on Kurzick Mesmer mobs.

Usually the bosses of the monsters of the same race have the same skills, so I'd say it might possibly be the boss of a quest that requires you to defeat a kurzick mesmer boss... That doesn't really help too much, I guess, but it would exclude a lot of other areas from the possibilities

It's in Unwaking Waters (explorable). Look for a dead mesmer corpse on the ground, because an Oni boss will get to him before you do.

Hmm...Instability+Dwarven battle stance anyone? Oooo incen. arrows...

New blackout?

Xennon has a reputation of posting stuff that hasn't even been confirmed yet. There is NO boss in SD that has the skill. They must've been thinking of Psychic Distraction which is available both in the mission and the explorable area (ONCE YOU COMPLETE MISSION). If you think PD and PI are the same thing... So any event, thx much for the help guys, I will go cap it now and try to post it on Wiki, I know they been having some system reconfiguration issues but it's all for the better- they are switching to new skill display.

EDIT: K, thx all, I capped the guy. He is all the way almost to the end of the spiral. There is some salties, onis, outcasts, and shiro'ken in the area. Big massive aggro, too, so... careful about patrols. I ended up fighting like 30 things (including an Ele saltie boss) but thats the beauty of a MM, you can take it all with a smile. Boss name is: Chazek Plague Herder and he is an outcast mesmer boss. I didn't manage to get an SS with him alive but I SS-ed his skill bar, and you can also see the location. Here goes:





Of course, in typical boss fashion he never used his elite.

I was looking forward to using it with Lightning Javelin :/ Tried it. Even sent a letter to ANet, asking them if it's a bug (they said it wasn't).

I mean, without Migraine, you're going to have a hell of a time trying to interrupt 1 second cast times (since computer lag makes up for quite a bit of time).

Maybe one could use migraine to interrupt RoF; but as of now that is just too fast for me, that it is.

Any decent mesmer can spam this skill on any caster. It is a total shutdown of said player unless they use a skill or the mesmer gets tired. But IMO, 1v1 stalemate isn't much.

Which is why I hate the silly MoR+diversion arguement...but more on that later.

I can see dwarven battle stance+this to be interesting with a combination of echo and like skills. Hence the new blackout approach. Total KD shutdown, + damage...and you don't lose a caster in the process.

I think Rt has some nice skills to supplement PI perfectly. What of Wailing Weapon, what of Earthbind? You don't necessarily need to be doing the interrupting. Like put this on a Monk and an Rt can Earthbind + Wailing Wep a War. You need to play around with it and get a feel. I think the skill has a great potential.

Btw I have been running universal interrupt on my Mesmer and I love it- you don't do much damage but I can inter anything and everything. Use Faint/Conundrum as base (if you need to) and then CoF, Complicate, SoDis, Leech Sig, etc. I know I will be toying with this skill a bit. I wanna see how good/bad it is.

I don't like signet interrupts because they are slow...=/

Signet interrupts arent slow.... 1/4 of a second, that's on par with all other interrupts.

Leech signet & signet of distruption ftw!
