Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
Havoc Warhammer - Alair
LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
PRX and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten
Because they can't rely on sprinting and dodge rolling to survive, the same way a stamina build can. Magicka builds depend more on self healing, blocking, and positioning.
