Does anyone have any suggestions regarding my Pyro build/rotation? HTML export is here, if anyone wants an combat log tell me and I'll upload it. I'm using 61 Pyro/9 Archon/6 Harb on the PTS raid dummy without any consumables and the Raid 2 gear + SHoE trinket from the bag (7.1k SP, 80 CP, forgot the SC) if anyone wants to reproduce it.

Remember that you can trade in zone event currency for planarite. Inscribed are worth 500 planarite each, not sure of the currency below that.

Yeah doing like a ghunt or stronghold is like 1k-3k planarite or something. The game kind of just vomits it at you if you do things.

http://www.rifthead.com/stc/zcNldesfIuusksgqfkvxcMvV is the preferred spec at the moment, I'm really not sure what the rotation is anymore, I can't say I've ever mastered the pyro rotation either. I'm looking into learning harb again, been awhile since we've been in melee range, don't know what to do for certain fights with it either! Gotta read up I guess

Planarite can be moved from character to character on an account, but it requires buying planarite vouchers which are a sub-50 sourcestone + the cost of the sourcestone in planarite. It's harder to do after 50 since you can't just run IA's for Inscribed Sourcestones.

KaneTW

Wow, that Warlock build parses like 1k DPS higher on Esthi (on live) than my old one. Rotation is the same, you just plant life leech once and enjoy 12k -> 13k DPS on the guild dimension dummy.

ROOOOONNNNGGGGGG.

You buy IS vouchers 1:1 for IS then transfer the IS voucher and buy planarite with the IS on the new character.

Yea they wouldn't transfer my level 60 when I asked the other week, they did say it might be available in the future though, no idea if that's a standard response that support give.

So in uh... interesting news, backbones got hosed tonight while we were doing TDQ. This resulted in us wiping on Jultharin when 2 of our 3 healers all of a sudden had pings in the 2+ minute range.

That's the negative.

The positive is this video of Stumbly's corpse moving about the dancefloor, wherein you can see that I use separate audio channels for mumble and music/game sounds (you may have been able to tell this in mumble as well, dunno how well my mic picks up my music).
