Wild Mushrooms ?!?!

[Ganjadude]

'OK! I've planted three mushrooms.. time for some damage! Exploding in... 3.. 2.. Wait, what, wheres the tank going with my mobs!, 1.. total damage: 0'

P.S Wasn't the original design that the mushrooms would be 'triggered' by an enemy running over them?

i think would be more usefull if worked like hunter trap where would explode when they moved over it

I use the Mushrooms pretty frequently - too set up some example for you people:

Stonecore - 1st boss - when he spews out the adds.
Blackwing Descent - Magmaw - when he casts pillar of flame for the parasite to come, if you got it specced into slow aswell, it's fcking awesome.
Blackwing Descent - Maloriak - Again position them before the green vial phase and you have your ot having the shrooms as a marker where to get the adds. Again with slow specced, it's awesome.

the problem is not that they are completely useless, but consider that you need to stop cast for 3 globals for an 8 (10? don t remember) second slow, and you need to spread your fungus to have a decent slow zone reducing by a large amount the damage. Now think that you can easly say to an hunter to place a frost trap, with bigger radius, with more duration and 1 gcd. Or maybe have 1 of your mage go frost and blizzard em down slowing. See the problem here? 3 gcd not used are like 100k damage if you were in eclipse.
