There are numerous (damn near every boss) instances in the game where using an specific type of element will heal the enemy. Not allowing us to do the same in reverse seems to be....inconsistent really. But thats not the big issue. I have built my current characters around a now broken strategy and need to start over, minus one potential way to play for no reason whatsoever.
And the statement " extremely effective (arguably overpowered/broken) strategy" is an exact example of the problem I have with this. That's an MMO problem, not a single player problem. If I am playing a competitive game where I have an unfair edge using some specific mechanic then it can be sensibly OP/Broken/unfair. If I am playing a single player game, simply do not use the freaking OP ability in YOUR game, leave mine the fuck alone. That mindset is killing gaming for the rest of us that give 2 craps about balance.
I am really happy to hear there is a mod out there though, thank you very much for that I am looking for it now.
I never denied I was nerdraging, in fact I made a point of stating it outright as that is what seems to get noticed on message boards. Hell look at the response I have gotten already =P
