Heyo, just popping in to again lament the lack of Smoke Bomb as an available utility. Since we can’t offer any support to the dispel on Afflicted, I’m left wishing we could at least Smoke Bomb the group or a cast to avoid Line of Sight and provide some negation or utility. Alas, we’re still sitting in PvP talent land with one of our coolest signature skills.

I like this idea. We need something to help with afflicted, otherwise i spend a lot of time looking for groups and then get dropped when they see someone just as viable but with a dispel queue up.

One of my hopes for all of the testing they’re doing with multiple Afflicted and Incorporeal weeks this month (does Entangling still exist…?) is that, particularly with Afflicted, certain role-immobile classes are absolutely being iced out of keys in LFG. They either weren’t thinking clearly when they designed the affixes and are testing through it now, or they were thinking clearly and just decided that disproportionate design in a game rife with homogenization and kitsharing anyway was the right way to go. Designing for actual group diversity where different specs/classes can engage with different challenges is cool, but it’s far less so if the designs just add up to a few specs being left out because they lack the tools most folks already have.
Smoke bomb would be great. An “antidote bomb” as an area poison cleanse for the only poison-themed class would also be great. Literally anything.
