I'm wondering if I can cobble together a tanky Champion AoE leveling spec though.

Here's a guide to a WL/champ leveling spec. It is very much about rounding up mobs and mowing them all down with AoE, though.

If you want to reserve your name on three springs, go do so now. If you want a free name change, you can make a char there with your name and it will make you change it when you move.

I am not quite clear on the name reservation part. I want to keep my current name, not change it. So do I make a character with the same name on Three Springs or no? If no, how does one go about reserving their name?

Make a character on threesprings with the same name, then delete it just before you transfer.

Coffee?
Will try it then. I admit I essentially dug up a Warlord build fast and then hadn't gotten to look much at the game since about 2 weeks past SL's release until a few days ago. Thanks for this, as I hadn't even known about this build. Going to whip it up and make the macros this morning and test it. The Paragon PvE build I was using was essentially THE PvE DPS spec, but naturally that's about sustained, competitive DPS. This is just up the alley for leveling, where burst is where it's at and sustained really doesn't mean much.

Reposting for new page. Remember, this doesn't happen until late Tuesday night.

:siren: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT :siren:

We have tentatively decided to transfer the main goon guild (Everything Is Fine) to the Three Springs shard. Unless an important reason not to do it pops up, I plan on doing this Tuesday night. The reasons are thus:

- Be someplace where goons can transfer to us, since goons currently cannot.
- Be away from Seastone
- Be on the same cluster as Generally Good, since our raiders raid with them. Further progressing them will help everyone when we are ready for our own 20 mans.
- Get away from Zoness

When it's done, everyone already on Deepwood should just get a popup when they log in and can automatically tell it to follow the guild. I am told that three springs is active with cross shard events, so hopefully we won't miss Faeblight. Worst case scenario, we can move in a week if it sucks.

When transferring, you will need to empty out your mailbox and pull down any auctions you have. If you want to reserve your name on three springs, go do so now. If you want a free name change, you can make a char there with your name and it will make you change it when you move.

I'm thinking of buying some REX credits, and I'm not looking to spend too terribly much on them. is $5 sufficient to get a nice amount of bonuses, like unlocking the character/bag slots and other important functions, or am I better off plunking down $20?

$5 will net you 975 credits, one extra bag slot goes for 860 credits, one extra character slot goes for 720 credits, all expansion souls go for 3500 credits (cannot buy one soul at a time).

If you are going to do $5, just go ahead and do the REX deal for $10. 1250 credits + Rex that you can either use yourself for 30 days patron status or auction for plat (I sold one tonight for 998 plat).

I thought Rex were worth 1250 credits. I had no idea that deal gives you a Rex + 1250 credits. Holy crap. How many credits are Rex worth then?

A REX is 1250 credits. You don't get any credits when you buy REX, you just get a thing that is usable to grant 1250 credits/2500 loyalty.

:10bux: either gets you a REX which you can sell for plat (1250 credits) or 1500 credits when you buy the $5 thing twice.

Is Deepwood just closed at this point or something? I just got to 15 and want to transfer but it's not in the list.

If you send a nice email they'll transfer your characters for you. I just got two of my dudes from Seastone sent over to Deepwood and they were very nice about it. It only took a day or two from sending the email off to getting the transfers. They call it a one-time thing though so beware maybe!

On that note, can I get an invite for my ancient old dudes Zaltziver and Zebugle before the guild server transfer thing goes? I just transferred them!! :mad:

I had that with Weapon Barrage for the longest time after they removed damage from interrupts (it fixed itself in one of the 2.1 hotfixes :iiam:). Fortunately, outside of a few fights in ID, I think sabdancer was the last time I really used BD in any meaningful manner, so it wasn't really something that bugged me.

Why do you say that? I messed around with BM when Storm Legion launched and liked it but the lack of AE while leveling kinda stunk so I switched to the standard warlord build and have continued using that since I came back to check out the F2P. I was under the impression BM was pretty underwhelming in general compared to other souls though.

I have my BM build setup but I need some practice with the actual rotation. If we can run some x spurts I should be good to go after 2-3. Is the gear the same? IE CP > everything?

That. Apparently GA has some extremely tight DPS checks and one way you can maximize them is having a BM and a DPS Archon (a DPS archon that can pull 10-12K+ DPS).

Someone else can verify but yes, your primary concern is buffing the raid and debuffing the boss but other than that you're doing a DPS rotation.
