Blizzard must really want to get their stats up. Only unsubbed for 2 weeks and they give 7 free days. Before stopping I cleaned out all auctions then waited a couple of hours then logged in for one last check, all okay. What do the bankers find? AH mails, one had a full inbox, about 50 items and about 12k gold waiting. Also I find they have moved servers to OZ, whoohoo. Some people are getting 5ms not 300, I get 80 because I am nowhere near Sydney but still a lot better than a highly variable 250-1000. My worst 90 is just strolling around timeless. It could never survive long enough to get over the catch-22, you need the buffs to farm and get more buffs, but it died before the buffs got more than 10 or 20 minutes use. No buffs no loot no advancement, no fun, not played much. Now it is like the slow-mo scenes from matrix. Oh look, mob is casting, I think I shall INTERRUPT and hit it Oh it is casting a cone of damage I think I shall STEP OUT OF THE FIRE =before= it spontaneously appears without warning. and hit it a few times Oh look, it is trying to hit me again I think I shall STUN it And build up some combos, hit hit hit And ...Oh it is dead. LOOT It is destroying 91-92 elites it had little chance of surviving two weeks ago.
