    yay, finally hit 50 on my jewelry crafting...I'll start crafting some stuff tomorrow...

    ended up needing to spend about 400k on platings to make sure I had enough mats for four or so epic pieces...

    working on my yellow guys right now in cyro...

    wasn't in very long on my magsorc, at my first keep defense froze pretty quickly, restarted and ported back in to another frozen screen, tried again and the entire second floor of the keep was now filled with enemies...moved a few steps and froze again...

    yep, that'll test your desire to play...

    I’ve been playing on XBOX1 NA for the past 2 weeks or so and the campaign imbalance is just as bad over there as it here unfortunately.

    had fun playing my 3 yellow characters this weekend...it was weird though - one of my characters just couldn't earn any AP at all (mag warden)..it seemed whenever i logged on to that character i just kept freezing all the time and always seemed to be in the wrong place...

    things went real smooth on my mag sorc and stamblade...stuff changes from time to time with the characters (gear, abilities, playstyle) - by and large though - they're just really simple to play...

    i'm really hoping this week's patch fixes the freezing...

    finally had a chance to visit the wardrobe room in traitor's vault...

    I've only done a few runs, but, nothing of real note yet...I've parked a few characters there, i don't farm as much as I used to (I have most of the in game junk I need :)) - and thankfully I can take a break from crafting for a while - so, I'll try to do a few runs on a few days this week...

    still need a few thousand AP on some of my red and yellow characters - but, switching over to blue this week...

    impending freezes aside, I'm looking forward to playing some of these characters...

    finally got my magblade newly suited and booted (grothdarr, torug's pact, sload's)...

    need to move my stam dk out of his crest of cyrodiil set...they're removing defile from the 5th set bonus...gonna stay in blood spawn and 7th - will probably just add a heavy set of hundings...he's a werewolf - always fun to play...

    wanna, switch my stamplar out of his plague doctor, and keep his shacklebreaker and molag kena on...gonna give mechanical acuity a try...

    talk about a sustain nightmare :#

    he's also a werewolf...both my DC ww's are primarily set up as tanks/high health...I wanna see if I can change them more into killers (they already do pretty okay :p), and, still survive...

    A few times over the weekend, I got killed by snipe, poison inject, light attack, snipe. It all hits at one time though. There’s no roll dodge, block, heal, anything. Just insta-dead. WTH is going on?

    Then the freezes start happening,

    Lame.

    Is this rise of snipe spammers due to freezing? Maybe so.

    there have been lots of times recently where the pvp experience hasn't been close to "competitive" (balance issues notwithstanding)...

    trying to game around the lag and freezes is crazy frustrating...

    sadly, I've started to become numb to it...

    @TequilaFire I saw you tonight in Cyrodiil! I did the “honor” emote when the yellow wave washed over you. Whenever I see one of the forum people in game I feel like Peter Griffin when they say the title of the movie in the movie.

    i woke early to help ad go on a double scroll run...

    what's this about morning capping? is there a conspiracy that ad is the grand puppet master?

    just played for a couple of hours late last night...

    amazingly enough - didn't freeze once...

    mostly just fought around nikel and bleakers...trying to incorporate time freeze and deep thoughts in to my rotation...

    time freeze is great for revealing stealthed enemies...just point to some nice quiet hiding spot atop a rock or along a wall and presto - bad guy revealed :p

    not sure yet how well my sload's and torug's is working together...it's gonna take a while and some small scale action to figure out how well it works...

    haven't pvp'd on my magblade for a couple of months...still getting comfortable again with his rotation and playstyle...

    hanging out on a hill outside the front door of chalman - just froze and restarted 4 times in a row...

    did get the o-tick amazingly enough...

    while just writing this - froze again...good night...

    I got killed by what must be the ultimate cheese build yet, a combo of Sload's and Viper's on the same guy.
    The two most infamous sets combined.

    having a blast doing some stress testing on my stam dk...

    just took off crest of cyrodiil and replaced it with hundings (keeping blood spawn and 7th legion for now)...

    also switched from 7 heavy to 5 heavy/2 medium...

    they're getting ready to "change" the crest set, plus I had been wearing it for a while now...

    took me a long time to get comfortable with my stam dk...tried making medium armor set ups work, but, was always way to squishy for how I liked to play the character (SnB and bow bars)...

    finally got comfortable wearing all heavy, now I wanna see if I can up my damage, and in particular make his werewolf more lethal...

    just transmuted his 2 7th legion rings to bloodthristy...

    right now though I'm mostly focused on seeing just how much damage I can take - which means putting myself into some interesting situations :)

    I'll start testing his werewolf out more tomorrow...

    didn't play my DC characters much last campaign, actually the last few campaigns I've spent a lot less time overall in vivec...

    was reminded as soon as I switched to this character it's always a sustain challenge for at least the first hour or so...

    it gets better though once I get used to the different rotations I use for the character...

    Don't hear of many SnB/Bow builds but I'm interested in your build because I'm also a stam DK. Right now I've been trying out Alcast's Draugr/Shacklebreaker/Bloodspawn build but I don't like not having a bow. Maybe I'll switch out the 2H for a bow.
