I miss feeling powerful and heroic

I absolutely hated the fact that you never felt truly powerful in World of Warcraft . Most of the monster encounters were one on one. If another monster happened to join in the fight, it was a problem for many classes. Not impossible, but difficult enough that you don’t feel like the [...]

Nerfs, nerfs and more nerfs in Age of Conan

While I’ve been enjoying my time thus far in Hyboria, the basically endless stream of nerfs is starting to really bother me.  The game has only recently passed its one month anniversary.  While it had a successful launch, now is the true test of the game’s longevity.  How many people actually committed themselves to a [...]

Overpowered? Tempest of Set and Priest of Mitra

Are these two classes really overpowered? It appears that a lot of people in the official forums seem to think so. Both class forums and even the general forum is getting a flood of ‘nurf l33t preists!!’ posts (I don’t know l33t speak at all, but you get my point). I call these [...]

Priest of Mitra Spellweaving

My PoM finally hit level 50! Since then, she’s spent most of her time learning how to use spellweaving. I’m still having fun watching the over-the-top graphical effects. It’s absolutely ridiculous and I can’t wait to see hordes of spellcasters using spellweaving in raids, sieges and other large group events.

Here is a video I posted [...]

Quickguide to leveling from a level 80 Priest of Mitra

A level 80 PoM posted some information at the official forums about what he did to get to level 80 so quickly. He leveled while Purification of Mitra was still useful, which is probably why he did so much grinding. There are level ranges when quests are sparse. If you use the [...]

Priest of Mitra feat advice to level 45

UPDATE 6/26/08 The latest version of the PoM Leveling Build Guide to 80 can be found here.
Now that Purification of Mitra has been relegated to a ‘nice bonus’, rather than a primary damage dealer, making the feat selections are no longer straightforward. There are a lot of very good skills at the top of [...]

Sigh. Priest of Mitra is nerfed or ‘fixed’, whichever way you want to look at it.

Today’s patch stealth nerfed Purification of Mitra into a DoT. There is no mention in the patch notes about this very significant change, which is rather bothersome. The total damage is about the same, but spread out over 7 seconds. As I predicted, the DoT’s from WoL and EoL do not stack. [...]

My Priest of Mitra is level 44. More advice for PoM’s.

The more I play my Priest of Mitra, the more I love this class. I am almost tempted to add her to my list of favorite classes, but it’s too early in her career. I am an altoholic (I roll tons and tons of different characters to try out all the classes), so [...]

Priest of Mitra feat advice up to level 30

My priest of Mitra is almost level 26 and coming along nicely. I would be much higher, but I took some time to level up my ranger and necromancer. All three have a very different playstyle, which I will grow to appreciate even more as I continue playing.

A shot of my PoM in [...]
