I would rather keep it focused on Fauaqi, as it is his posts. However, you want some tips? Ok, when you enter the world, and someone says someone is raiding, what say you see who is around first? Some rank 40 was attacking walker, alone, you were in the shroud, hence obvious no enemies were in the shroud, and as soon as I said that, you worded. Turns out you could not even harm them. Next, instead of asking three people to go rank, finding no one can, and then quit, maybe stick around for awhile, practice spells, gather preperations, whatever. I understand the time restraint thing, I really do. I sometimes forget about it, but I do understand it. However, your show ups aren't time restraints, because you obviously have time if you can rank. Another tip, obviously this has got to be your first hero, maybe second. If you're with someone, who seems to be a little more world savvy or what not, if they ask you to do something, just do it. Maybe they know what they're talking about. The instance with Fauaqi, yes, I agree, you should have dispelled. Even if you didn't dispel his shield of waves, and just something minor, I can almost guarentee you that once an invoker sees someone is trying to dispel him while a warrior is whacking away at him, he is going to get the hell out of there. Maybe you would not have killed him, but you would have defended successfully. As for being bitter...what do I have to be bitter about? I have had a great time in the fields for...what is it now, six, seven years? I could not tell you how many heroes I've had, but I've had a blast with them all for at least a little while. Why you would hate my character I have no idea, I rarely even spoke around you let alone at you. What can I say, some people don't mesh. Anyway, there's my tips for you, maybe if you listen it might even make you better. Fauaqi, sorry for detracting from your death.
