<div>The combats last night were all in all, unfocussed. It really hurts to die now. As for pots, I start with 15 CLW every evening but I say we need to up that to 30 each. I don't think we should start pooling cash. Personally I feel the cost difference between CLW and CMW is ridiculous and cannot be justified. What I mean is I use only CLW for now as I can tumble, quaff, tumble, quaff, which is the same as quaff 1 CMW at way less price.
</div>
<div>I am still figuring out the role of the rogue in combat. My armour is terrible and if I'm in melee range 2 hits kills me, as you all saw last night. Backstab is now 1d6 + 3 d6 with 18-20 being a crit (rapier). I get the same bonuses with my throwing daggers 1d4 + 3 d6 if I'm within 30 yards. I may try that for a while.
</div>
<div>Conor, it's hard to judge when to call, I found last night. Being hit twice for 20 points in a row reduces me to 9 hp in no time, screaming at you then, and getting a potentially bad roll on the CLW won't stop the death if another comes your way. The mobs hit hard now and being pecked away at from 49 to 33 then boom to 10 can't be prevented.
</div>
<div>Suggestions: Keep the tank up, let us on pots unless D is doing fine, then throw emergency heals our way? All non combat healing is to be by pot/wand ONLY, we need your mana for when we can't quaff quick enough. As for you being whopped, I can only suggest more communication before fight, Intimidate and Diplomacy are like aggro management and fade in WoW a bit.
</div>
<div>If you can't see who's where use the V key in battle to see who is in LOS. I use both defensive stance and uncanny dodge.</div>
<div>I loved the Irestone Inlet with all that sneaking, how fun was that?!! All in all a good night.</div>
<div>Bren's bard is what level? Have you all alts to get him up to speed? Will you just swap over to mains when he hits 4?</div>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Sorry for being grumpy with the healing tonight lads - but its a boring and painful job and I find it really annoying if someone goes down, whether it was them being a newb or me.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Tonight thankfully it was ye being the newbs :)</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Healing 101 - If I am being milled into I will not know to heal you unless I hear your name. Generally as the person who is keeping everyone up ye should be trying to get stuff of me - 'cos even if they are not doing major damage the spell interuptions could kill us.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Hearing it when you are nearly dead is too late. Both heals (CLW & CMW) have a cooldown and chances are I have just healed someone else a second a go - if you leave it till the last second. When you hit 50% you should be shouting.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">LINE OF SIGHT - if you are out of it then you will not be healed. If you go out of it have a pot at the ready. I probably won't even realise you are not getting healed till too late, cos basically if there are 2-3 of ye in need of healing (and thats generally the way it is) I have time to select one, cast heal, select the next one, cast heal etc etc I barely have time to see if a heal actually went off.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Cash for healing stuff. I know its party needed stuff etc etc, but at this stage we are all saving up for stuff from the brokers. I propose we keep it equal until otherwise is needed. </font>
</div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Tonight I said 30 and someone gave me 50 and I ended up spending somewhere between 80-100 plat of my own - don't really care but between the dying loads and the cost of healing for everyone else I gained no xp and was down about 50 plat from a nights hard work :) so like I said I think from now on the start of the night the person with the best haggle skill gets 50 plat per player and goes and buys all the required healing stuff, once we have the party healing bought we can decide the best way to split it up ie I will end up getting wand cos its a 100% chance of success, but I only need 1 pot. Diarm and Mike probably need the most pots.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Is anyone using block or defensive fighting style??? I'm only asking cos when I am on full mana ye seem to act bonkers and suck up my mana - when I'm low ye all seem to become better players and my last 30 SP seem to go a lot further than the 250SP before them??
