Well I encountered dual feral in 2v2 last week. And I lost. But then again I don't have roots on my lock, and my fear is susceptible to interrupts.
That, and I suck :p

I'm actually seeing a lot of classes which I could easily beat pre-4.0.6 rape me post-4.0.6. Rets for example suddenly have an insane amount of burst.
I also had frost mages for breakfast before the patch. Then I got to have a 1v1 match in arena last week, and lost that too. WTF o_O
(for people who don't know: I don't pvp on my druid, only on my lock. And no the shifting nerf has nothing to do with that)

Thought the first Risen was useless. "Hai thar! So you want to be a mage? Ok, here's a staff, go hit stuff with it." I know you can access magic eventually but the game was so slow....I know a lot of games go slowly, this one just didn't build up to anything, at least in my opinion.
I know it's unlikely but if any of you lot were thinking of donating to the legal fees of GeoHot (George Hotz) check out
this
link. Much better use of your money really if you were thinking of donating to something.
NetStormer! Don't you dare leave us! Leave the game but don't leave the forums, who else will protect me from the wrath of the moderators and on occasion, Foley? Best of luck with whatever you decide to do though. Where shalt thy future gaming lie?

Thats how things work in certain RPGs. When you do not start out as a mage, you have to learn magic. Learning magic is no task for a single rainy evening. The path to magic was difficult in Risen, but it was just as difficult in Planescape Torment, and Gothic 1 and 2. If anything, it teaches you to not be completely useless when you run out of mana later. Risen was an awesome RPG.

I am familiar with that concept and with the Gothic games. It worked with those and I felt engaged by them, as if I was truly learning magic. I felt the struggle to learn the arts and the skills you had developed over time. In Risen I had no such feeling, it didn't engage me at all, it just felt...slow, unlike Gothic. While it was slow, you still felt as though you were progressing, Risen didn't.
That's just my opinion ofc. A friend of mine loved it (the chap that got me into DA:O and introduced me to the Riftwar Saga as it happens) and we have similar interests.

I think you'll find that we irishmen can be quite the handful when the need arises, such as making sure a prominent member doesn't forget about the grove! I haven't played since before 4.0.1 (and I mean a good while before it) yet I still keep my nose in here, it certainly isn't hard :P
Kinect is amazing, heres hoping we get more 3rd party titles though, there are a couple of decent ones already out but who wants to be sonic on a hoverboard when you can play gears or be a jedi! I didn't bother renewing my sub with that deal they had, 40% off (worked out at €36). Couldn't find anyone that wanted to do the referral, would've meant we both got bonuses, free MS points, free game, free time or something along those lines.

Donjio channeled the ancient nature magicks and found himself in a memorable place. The Druids' Grove in the Moonglade. Lush greenery all around, a fawn ambled past, followed by a squirrel going the other direction. He made his way past a few houses, down a hill to the Moonwell. The tauren waved at Loganaar as he passed, his mentor for the many years he had been studying the arts of druidic nature.
He made his way to the inn, paid the innkeeper a hefty amount of gold coins and made his way up to a room. After removing most of his traveling gear, he laid down on the bed, and fell quickly into slumber, and into the Emerald Dream.
Excellent sign-off Net, +1 to you. I've long trusted your name for all of my Resto knowledge needs, and your posts were always good reads. Hope you stick around longer than you intend to =)

What a fun raid we had last night. We went for a fresh BoT run, which meant I could go on my lock!
But I had just switched to my naga setup, so my dps was pretty pants (people not interrupting nova on halfus didn't really help >.<). Did about 13 to 14k I believe.
But then during trash after Halfus, our feral tank dc's. And can't log back in, because our server (and several others) were having technical issues.
After waiting for an hour, we called the raid :(

Yeah we decided to only release 2 of the 3 drakes for some reason or my dps would have been higher, lol.
Edit: Though to be fair this weeks Drakes are just about the most abuse-able combo we can get :P
