Josh called the Excalibur last night. Justin had already gone home so Harley transferred him to me.
Erm.
What I'm more concerned with is Zane's DPS. It totally sucks. Everyone kept saying, "Respec to Beast Master at 60". However, going from spec in Marksmanship to Beast Master dropped my DPS by 50%. W/Marksmanship, I would normally hit things in the range of 300 - 500 damage w/crits from 700 - 1100 (the high end usually hitting w/Aimed Shot). Still, it doesn't seem that high to me, considering all the trouble he was having w/elite trolls 20 lvls lower than him (he's now a 62) & seeing as how other hunters (ooh, DPS envy is the worst) are one-shotting crap regularly. Rob's lvl 50 mage is regularly critting stuff his own lvl over 1000 & even Scary (now a lvl 49 shaman) is critting stuff up to 5 lvls higher regularly at 700 - 900 - she's specced Elemental, though. She's tough, but I hate playing mana-vampire classes & Shaman is definitely a mana-sucker. Contrary to popular belief, Shamans do occasionally die.
Zane is good at crowd control, at least w/Jinx (now a lvl 60 hyena). She can pull & hold aggro like a lvl 1 priest in a lvl 20 instance.
I'm just so stuck on Zane's damage tho. It's making him unfun to play & I just think it's a little late for him to try to bring up a cat pet to compensate for his sucky DPS.
