Is that an addon you have?

See my blog for the list of addons I use. I can't provide a direct link in a comment.

good fights, i especially liked the squig fights.

do you think it was a mistake on their part that lost it for them and if they kept kiting properly, they would win?

[taugrimtaugrim]

A skilled SH, spec'd for kiting and with room to run, can kite a SM to death without the SM getting a melee attack in.

We don't have multiple snares like IB (Earthshatter + tank root) or a ranged knockdown like Knight (Heaven's Fury).

I have solo'd plenty of SHs, but the very best can be impossible to kill as an SM, if the fight starts from range.

Hi,

Are you going to do Patch 1.2 SM videos? I'm only level 17 atm and would like to know what's it like at level 40. Also, did you ever get ether dance? How useful is it compared to Whispering Wind?

[taugrimtaugrim]

Yes I will do 1.2 SM videos, I just need to record some footage in 1.2.

Ether Dance requires 2h, which I've found to not be viable in T4 in 1.2 with caster DPS being what it is. For most of 1.1 I ran with a 2h in ORVR, but in 1.2 I've gone back to using 1h + shield.

FYI: for some reason this video is only showing in HQ now. Dunno why.

WE's seriously need addressed. They should not be able to take out a heavy tank as easily as they do. They are OP'd in every tier. Stealth is also screwed up. Other than WE's, WAR is a great game.

Great video btw, thanks for making them more instructional than just playing cheesy music throughout.

[oejeo]

Cool video. It's interesting to hear your comments/observations as opposed to music.

[arxidiaTOUtsolia]

seriously that thing ,that you move around all the time at those wowlike mmo's is pure crap! how can you enjoy a fight if it makes you wanna puke...AUTOFACING god dammit its not strategy to move around!

[patdab1423]

[yazandoom]

[BenjaminEdwardMOV]

This video is insanely entertaining for a fellow swordmaster to watch.

[ConcernedHuman]

1. juggernaught tactic.

2. hold the line with a shield while charging.

3. lotd speed tali.

4. crushing wave.

=dead squig herder, but you have to duel with a a shield.

[nimrod98]

Yeah on normal quality it says video is not available. Thanks for the info, right now I'm PvE most of the time grinding with an Archmage friend. So we need the dps and thats why I'm using 2h. Will change later probably.. Thanks again!
