The Imp Mech...

I simply think it's an added stress to the plant side, unnecessarily, and unless you all band together to take it down quick, it's a pain. Even banding together to take one down takes the attention off of all the other zombies around. There's nothing the plant side can do to actually force the attention of the zombie team to unify against it like a Mech can. There simply isn't. So I think it's a bad design choice. Especially when only one side has it. 

I think it's a cool concept, I can see why they wanted to add it. But it throws balance to the wind and it will always be that way. This game, GW2, would have been a lot better off keeping it strictly to normal characters. Putting in Mechs with multiple times the HP of a normal character is a mistake if you don't give the other team a fair counter. There's no fair counter to it. 

I have to dump my abilities on it. It takes like a whole Solar Flare to take one down. It's presence automatically gives the zombie team a big advantage. Having the plant team dump their abilities into this one thing, focus their attention to it, leaves the Plants weak. The zombies around them have their abilities. They get to keep them. The plant primaries only go so far. Most fights, if it was just normal character vs normal character, are tuned with the inclusion of their abilities. If I don't have them then I'm at a huge disadvantage and it's my primary against zombies with abilities plus their primary, then you lose. And you get pushed back further and further. I don't quite get how it can be defended without a clear cut counter or equivalent to it. I see it as an unnecessary stress. It's definitely a stress. You can't act like it's not one. 

And welcome back Zaheen. I thought you were gone.
