TP the Vines?

Hey ho folks. Quick question.

I noticed that the vines on plant domination (Carrion creeper power) can be teleported...

This got me thinking...

Im not exactly sure how the vine spawn is calculated in terms of when and how long - but, I wondered if you could use team teleport to bring the lovely things with you and eventually build up an army of lag-inducing vines travelling around with you?

Seeing that the vines last something like 15 seconds I would say your plans for floral world domination will fall short.




If it has
eyes, you can blind it, if it has blood, you can make it bleed, if it has a mouth, you can make it scream.

Is that all they last , seems longer in the heat of battle and they do reform on the next spawn.

On the other hand i had no idea you could tp them at all!

That means you can bring long time spirit tree with you also?

Carrion Creepers cannot be teleported as such. It will however follow you and respawn and attack the next mob if you are amongst them.

Spirit tree however does not follow or move full stop. Would be of more use if it did but alas no way of bringing it with you.

My tree followed me up the lifts once - not literally, just appeared as I got out

Now that is scary.


I really should do something about this signature.

I've just got Carrion Creepers on my Dominator and I'm loving it but I find it a bit mystifying. It's an AoE power that follows you around?

Can any one give me a bit more insight into what's going on here? What are the rules that it follows? (i.e. do the vines continue to spawn near the casting toon for a fixed period of time?)

Thanks in advance


Ever wondered how our costumes stay so clean and shiny given everything we put them through?

Yes. You can see it move in water, it works like an invisible PbAoE pet - it's not quite an aura since there is a lag with it following you. Doesn't have a visible form but you can hear it - a bubbling sound.

It follows you around, if a visible target is within it's area a creeper may sprout up and attack that target. It's possible that a single target which moves multiple times in the same patch will generate multiple creeper tentacles.

It's no good for attacking Stalkers or other hidden targets you can't see, however, it will sprout creepers if there is an invisible target in the aura, but the creepers won't be able to attack it and they won't 'reveal' the target.

For as long as it is active, creepers may sprout and the debuffs will...debuff. You don't get an icon with it, but you should always be able to hear it if it is near you and active.

Thanks Filth.

(Hmm - read that back, it doesn't sound very complimentary! )
