Working on and off on my second playthrough of Mass Effect 3, but been doing some Minecraft and finishing Kingdoms Of Amular in between.

Played DDO for a bit today.  Did the Haunted Library on hard with my Drow Ninja Spy...died like dogs for the first half of it.  Managed to beat it, and the guys wanted to do elite.  Only problem was, our only healers were bots, and, if you've ever played DDO, you know just how stupid the hirelings are.  Soooo...we tried, anyway.  Started taking a lot of damage, then, I remembered...I have a healer in the level range for that very quest!

So, I swapped out to my healer, and the only deaths were because of Phantasmal Killer and traps, which on elite, are killers.  Got massive props, again, for my awesome healing skills...and a set of 3 year-old mithral full plate as a gift.  Fuck.  Yes.

I thought the henchmen in Guild Wars were stupid, too.  Nope, they're geniuses compared to DDO hirelings.

Meanwhile, we've got Kobold Shamans that subscribe to "Quadratic Wizards" and can Lightning Bolt people that, when playing the quest at-level, would still lack the levels to cast that spell.

To this day, I still dread playing the Harbor quests on Elite ._.

They're not as bad if your character happens to have Evasion.  Rogues and Monks get it at level 2, which is well under-level for those quests on Elite.

But, yeah...I fucking hate kobold shamans, and I kill them (and all other casters, healers first) whenever I see em.

Really when you get at high enough level you should be targeting the casters first.  All the time.  They're the ones who'll fuck you up the worst.

Ironbite-thankfully even though I play a caster in Pathfinder...its more like I'm a Digimon trainer then anything else.

Meanwhile, I play as the squishy caster who is taking levels in Dragon Disciple to be significantly less squishy :D

I prefer a caster who's got the kind of powerful magic (and metamagic) that can kill a fire elemental.  With fire.

And, if I can't, well...

Well, I'm officially addicted to Terraria now. Thanks a lot, jerks.

Nah, but seriously, this game rules.

Personally, I don't like it too much.

Then again, I haven't seen a lot of it, so... yeah.

It's tons of fun, and definitely worth the $10.
