Pre-Patch stand alone stuns:
Cease
Desist
Stun
Holy Might
Force
Force of Akera
Quelious' Word of Tranquility
What we really lost with the new links:
1) Lost Force of Akera - our 3rd fast 1.0 cast time stun for agro. Those who use 3 stuns now have no choice but to use Cease
once again. Cease is less mana and recast, but 50% higher cast time (which is the sole reason Akera is better). And here I felt
guilty about use a level 53 spell...now I'm back to using a level 7 spell wheeeeee.
2) Lost Quelious' Word of Tranquility- our 4th knockback spell (counting AA). Primarily used for positioning on AE group/raid
encounters (Performer and Stitch most notable). Not used very often, but when the time came we really shine on
positioning....not so much anymore. We still have 3, but having a 4th helped a ton with those brutal recast times.
I don't care much about Stun, Holy Might, and Force, and I'm not extremely worried about Tranquility....but losing Akera really
chaps my ass.
