I'm tired of this AP farming. Heh it doesn't bother me because I don't rush at it; I reached 35 points on my 2 main specs (ok, one 36 and one 35), that's good enough for me lol - I'd be further along without my enforced break from the game but still, I'd not have completed it and I don't greatly care; I'm having fun even if I don't fill out the 20/20 (or 50/50 forthcoming) traits ;-) >Also. I cant grab the right >rotation for my 887 arcane mage. My last kill on Krosus/normal my dps >was 365k. It should be more like 550k and more. I have double and >triple checked and compared my rotation to other mages' rotations found >at warcraftlogs. I have read altered-time.com over and over again, >tested my rotations on a dummy for hours. Frustrating! Ouch, I bet; that sounds a pretty big difference from the expected numbers. I never get to what I "should" get, I've accepted I'm just not great at dps rotations (my only high lvl dps right now is a feral druid... well..yeah, that is NOT a user-friendly spec... :-P), but it's frustrating when it's a big gap. I know nothing about mage so can't make any suggestions, but maybe some different guides will give stuff that suis you better - I've heard it said that in some cases it's better to take the "wrong" talent, because it's easier to get right, and the "right" talent is easier to turn into a dps loss by having to move at the wrong time etc. But as a pure casual I'm going on hearsay and my own personal preference for taking the easy options in my builds ;-) >Also.

Argh that'd drive me mad, yeah - muscle memory sure does work, ever since I started playing Guild Wars 2 I've been trying to use its keybinds in WoW, sigh. It would be very nice if I could just hit "R" to dodge out of the aoe that's about to land on me, but it doesn't work in WoW and now it's too late to move normally, need to retrain my brain to accept two different systems ;-) >I'm gonna take a few days off from the game and I return >in a week /me thinks..

I'm looking >forward for both. :) Hehe hope the job goes well and yes, sounds like time for a break, come back recharged when you're in the mood again :-) >> I also really like the constant events, especially the ones in chains, >> where you escort some NPCs, if successful, they invade a place, then a >> big champion spawns, etc, it's fun following those kinda chains, >> especially as they do make an actual impact (for a few minutes) if you >> capture a base, or fail to prevent enemies setting stuff on fire, >> feels pretty good :-) If one particular world boss isn't killed within >> a time limit (often happens; he takes proper coordination), he >> terrorises the zone randomly killing stuff for the next few hours till >> he's available to be killed again, nice touch! > >I havent seen that anywhere? In Guild Wars 2 in case I didn't make that clear enough :-) If I did and you know the game, I'm referring to the Triple Trouble great jungle worm boss, where if it's not killed the worm heads "terrorise the coast" until the next time the event is open, love that detail. >Well.
