Sure, I would be glad to impart some vital information. 1) Learn your incants. Know them. Love them. 2) If you are a celestial, NEVER stop hucking till it is a) running b) falling down c) dead 3) Spar against people better than you (I spar with luke and steve babin) 4) never allow yourself to be "shaken up" with bullshit talking trash (like i did with you) 5) never dodge a packet if you have a spell shield. if you have a spell shield - move a direction away from you opponent while you are casting 6) Concentrate on your next five spells, never think about what you have in your pyramid (you'll freeze wondering what you have left) 7) Do the unexpected. 8) Rely on scrolls as a last resort on weekends, on module rely upon them THEN your pyramid 9) Try taking on five opponents at once (non casters) If you can beat them, you rule 10) never listen to me, find your own style and practice your aim (after three months you'll think your roger clemens) 11) The last one, throw long range at opponents and close quickly. At long range opponents attempt to dodge and a quick sprint at them is always unsettling. Combat casters run in, not wait for an opening. I'd be glad to help you cast any time, but remember that there are far better casters in this game than me - I don't know if I'm the best choice. john p.s. see you this sat at melinda's? Hows Chumpusa?
