I think I might get back into it if fabhs and zseni take their old characters and make it to mid 30s, I'd like to start an alt, but I don't like any character better than the Squig Herder.


A witch elf at 30 is the highest character I have right now. Every time I try to join a t4 scenario it's Order rolling everyone for a final score of 500-10 and I end up getting 2500xp for my 15 minutes. Only 160 more to go till next level! I can still join t3 scenarios but only if I backtrack to areas where the PVE gives me shit experience.

Besides, witch elves blow. I may be wrong but from my experience the only way you're going to break through Order healing is to inflict massive AoE damage they can't keep up with or burst damage your target and kill it before the healers know what's happening. Witch elves can't really do either of these since their best abilities are locked into their DoT mastery tree, except for that ONE magic immunity ability way up in the treachery tree which doesn't really help your damage either. I used to think their healing debuff was great until I discovered every other class gets one.

Then there's just the general hassle of trying to WASD circle strafe and stay in range to some spastic running healer while clicking on 30 ability icons and keeping track of their cooldown. Infinitely easier to just sit back as a ranged class.


You should try a shaman! You get ranged healing AND damage without really sacrificing much effectiveness from the classes that specialize. Fuck if I can notice any less healing than my zealot, and the damage is always higher. It's also amazing how much tougher PVE you can solo when you can heal. Taking on same level champions was impossible as a witch elf.
