Sounds good I took it slow from the get go so I could understand the layout of the game now I think I'm in my groove^^

As for the SK dilemma, I grinded out a few levels last night - at 30 with 7 aa.. lol ! need to betray to the evil side to become a SK. I jumped on my Guardian last night and ran through a few instances - it went a lot smoother.
Low and behold this morning though reading more information on SK's it appears I have no other choice than to play them.

The huge benefits that the Guardian can't touch with a 10 foot pole are as follows:
Fear Immunity - it's bad in WoW, it's bad here. Just straight up being immune is awesomesauce, the Guardian epic weapon has a proc chance of 1.8 times per minute which gives you immunity to pretty much everything but only lasts for 10 seconds. I'd rather have 100% always uptime.
I don't even know what the name of the spell is but it's massive overpowered... It's a self buff "Until Cancelled" with a recast time of 3 minutes which if you were to die in combat, plops you back at 100% hp. It's kind of like uh.. dayum? lol
My group is caster heavy which I seem to enjoy casters more than melee for multiboxing, and the SK gives 2% spell bonus power, and really high in the AA's offers 10% casting speed/10% reuse time that is always up. I'm a huge fan of always up buffs none of this 20-30 seconds stuff.
Besides the increase in damage which better suits a smaller array of characters - I consider 4 much smaller than 6 :P it allows me I think to diversify better if I am just playing solo (is that considered solo?)

The ugh feeling yesterday was that I felt I was missing out at the 80 level but I also solved that problem, at least within my head
I can still work on getting void shards and only spend about 1-2 hours a day doing that, the rest of the time I can work on bringing the SK up since the void shards are transferrable between characters on the same account.
All in all, I feel I'm at peace now with my gameplan and the synergy between this combo is off the wooza, HoTs from Warden + Lifetaps from SK = 1.5 healers ^^, the casting speed improvements from the SK / Illusionist = omg wtf bbq caster group.

and that's that!!


Edit ** 1 more thing, just from reading the illusionists Epic weapon... it's insanely amazing !
