I found most of them to be fairly unpredictable and often burned through 
a couple in succession at tough points. Solo on minibosses etc.
I had all of them on all 100s , 6 or 7??

I found too many alts , enough to do a full profession mini economy a 
pain. Consider that may not enjoy more alts/mains. The time to get a new 
one up and useful is usually no way worth for me . Mostly because 
somehow I feel obligated. I can't leave one to rot once I have it so 
none gets totally kitted out.
   The idea of a new expansion and ANOTHER 100+ 'free' is not appealing.
That and the shoulders are pumped full of cortisone and painkillers so 
can't really play these tenth-second response games much. Everything is 
past expiry date.

what am I doing:

New shed, new welder , weeds keep growing ,plenty else to do.

No WOW still, every time I go to start it just seems like too much work 
to start again. I tend to dredge out 20 year old games and replay them, 
just as interesting to fill in a few hours mostly.
   Those who can , do, those who can't, watch. Hmmm, maybe a bit of WOW 
and other games..on Twitch and youtube gaming.  100Mbps and unlimited 
quota fibre doesn't hurt.

   While the streamers are pretty good and of course they are distracted 
I find their lack of situational awareness infuriating. They are used to 
running in groups and having someone in the groups notice and report. As 
solo they get lost, miss cues that are right on screen that are 
important.  Of course it is easy when you aren't actually 'there' but 
really they have group tunnel vision instead of solo hyper-vigilant 
vision. LOOK it is right THERE, FLASHING in ORANGE, with AUDIO WARNING 
!!!! ARRRRRGHHH  :-)
  Still , it scratches the itch.
  Oh, look at the toxicity. Now I remember why I stopped MMO :-)
