no thats vorms attempt at contested, they show up....course vorm is quiting so guess CL has even less competition, if anything less lag for contested.

While I would have learned something from this thread had I not already been informed of such information in other threads, i can at least say I was thoroughly amused and very entertained throughout my reading of this thread.

Thanks all :D

And yes, I /agree with

Guard-Dirge-Coercer-Defiler-Templar-Swashie/Assassin

However sometimes with our luck, coercers arent easy to come by:
Illusionist does work amazing in their place imho. As buckler spec i can get up to 97% dbl attack from Illusionist, and their 59-62 AttackSpeed [thats the minimal difference between A3 and M1 sadly]

[60% from buckler, 9% from AAs, 3% from Strongbear [if its not a very hard encounter] and then 25% from Illusionist

Also, currently been having difficulty getting enough support classes to give regen to all groups, so im fine with sacrificing the coercer to another group [i prefer dirge over coercer if i can only have one]. I'm sure if aggro is more difficult later then coercer will be preferred but dirge has some great MT buffs [although i know they hate wasting them when they could buff for DPS more ]

I've always been a big fan of avoidance/mitigation when my ex-raid leader only cared about hit points hit points hit points and never looked at mitigation or avoidance when figuring out who was MT.

And as such buckler spec has worked wonders for me, and if need be I can always switch to Tower Shield, i just look a good chunk of my dps.

But at the end of the day im having fun, so its all gravy

Like most, MT group normally consist of me (Guardian) , Templar , Defiler , Coercer , Swashie , and a Dirge.

ATM I'm spec'd in the 4-4-8 clus in Str/Sta/Wis

Drop 4-4-8 WIS into AGI or INT and your dps will increase. If INT, there's a case to be made for 4-8-4. It's as much haste a long as you have it up, and it lasts longer.

luka

current setup is str 448 agi 444 sta 4485
would like to give away the 5 avoidance points in sta to agi 458 but a bit survivability is not bad ;p

i like this setup, got 2,4 - 2,5k several times on solo trash in eh last time.

My MT group setup

Guardian, Templar, Warden, Defiler, Coercer, Dirge

I can't seem to find an AA spec i can stick with or like enough. Agi 4/4/7/8/2 Sta 4/5/8/8.... i also find AGI 4/4/7/8/2 WIS 4/4/6/8/2 to be a really nice spec. Obviously with buckler hate is going to be a lot easier, than again the stability with a tower spec and stance master and all that is really nice.

But it seems even then you all are doing things totally different lol. Really kind of considering going STR AGI INT now since i've been reading all this.

Edit : Current setup is AGI / WIS .... 4/4/7/8/2 - 4/4/6/8/2 respectively

Hayle is 448 str, 44862 agil, 45 int now. Accel strike is decent, but not life changing.
