fucking awesome!!.. i knew bards were going to rule boxed! i been playing 3 ( all my PC can handle smoothly ) And they just own in BGs as well. At 21 you get coda of restoration, very hard to kill anyone around you with 3xcadence and 3 codas of resto ( when you need them )

How were your guys speced?

So on bosses, did you round robin cadence? how did you handle DPSing and healing? I mean you have to use cadence to heal. I'm asking because i might have to respec and try it out. In BGs for example, when i was in the thick of it, i had to non stop heal ( cadence) and coda of restoration. When I'm questing or rift hunting 3 fully speced bards might be a tad overkill on the healing hehe

Also, did you pets do all the tanking? like you, i just have ranger soul for the pet, no points spent.

It's so nice to see this stuff. Great job!

I really hope this game sticks around for the long-term. WoW is an incredible game, but it just isn't holding my attention at this point. It's actually starting to get boring.

Thanks for posting this. Time to pre-order Rift X 5.

Just a quick question. Do you get the same feeling as WoW in terms of how easy it is to follow, assist and run 5 characters? I get it that spells, healing and dps are all different, but does it essentially feel the same once you get the spells and attacks down?

yea pets tanked and all i do is cadence on all 5 two times then a marksman finisher maybe boring rotation but hey whatever gets it done. I tried the higher level dungeon at 21 boss was 23 iirc and i couldnt get it down ill get lvl 24 later tonight and try again.

Actualy i didnt spend the time to set it all up so my chars follow main char if he dies im pretty screwed but i know Mosg has already got his follows working poperly on character switch. As far as it feeling like WoW not at all i mean a MMO is a MMO but Rift feels alot different to me, a better different!

well i tried the lvl 20 dungeon and got first boss down np but 2nd boss is a real bitch. He hits my pets too hard and if you dont have a tank to move him out of the light he enrages so maybe with a full spec barrd for mega heals it might be possible but not MM/bard =-(
