[QUOTE="Aberzanzorax, post: 7648528, member: 64209"] First of all, pretty spot on review. I didn't have much to say, until I began playing with my son in a group. Then I realized that this quote missed something: When I solo play, I use basically 2 different "specs" for solo quest grinding and for boss fights. Playing with my son (who is an alt addict) I found myself using many more different abilities, depending upon if we were fighting a boss or questing, but also depending upon what character he was using. I can only imagine that pvp skills (especially if you can pvp in groups, I don't know the answer to that, or if you know ahead of time what class you'll be pvping against) would be different in those conditions, as well as being different choices from pve skill. So, yes, the same situation calls for the same skills - and if you only ever solo play through the game, you'll be using one or two sets of skills as "best" for that style of gameplay...but that ignores the fact that there are dozens of varieties of gameplay. Sure, there are still some "duds", but that doesn't mean there's only a single way to play. [/QUOTE]
