Well... got 3 toons to 80 already and none of them are a pure DPS class so I am leveling a mage. He's sitting at 61 and well, sitting there hitting frost bolt is getting a bit boring, the AoE isn't too fun either.

I got the heirlooms and everything and sure it's fast but boring.

Was going to try out arcane but it won't really be great until Arcane Blast at 64 so, any ideas until then?

You can go arcane before 64, just cast fire ball instead of arc. blast until ur 64, it won't be so bad thats its unplayable :p, that is saying you <3 arcane over frost and fire.

He was level 61 when he posted about a month ago. Getting 19 levels in one month is a walk in the park. Gratz though! Mages are fun, so are warlocks. Stay away from the Paladin unless you have a shitload of patience... I hit 80 on my paladin and it is pure boring until your gear gets godly, then you will fuck shit up as ret.

I geared my pally as holy, got bored of healing though. My mage is really fun :)

Thats true, I heard they are going to redo the whole low level play style, so you can save your warlock for that :D.

They are completely redoing the level flow of the old world, drastically changing many zones, and making higher quality quests throughout. Hopefully it will be a lot more fun :thup:

Maybe, really don't wanna do another 80 though, I really hated 1-60 and I had these toons at 60 from RAF which is why I even thought of playing my mage :(

I have a 71 mage , i've respccing and experimenting with different specs and by far FROST is ur best friend. But yeah since ur bored, i suggest Fire for now before you get arcane blast and arcane barrage. with fire you'll do good dmg, but you'll feel the OOM at almost every 2-3 fights. Same goes with arcane, but arcane has talent that reduces Evocation CD.

You play WoW a lot, don't you

Hes had little over a month, you don't have to play a lot to get 80 80 from lvl 61, leveling is quicker at this point up until you get to 70, then its slow I believe until you get to 76 then its quick to 78, and time consuming for the last 2 levels :p

If you knew what you were doing, didn't fool around, and was focused, and didn't run into any bumps, 61-70 you can get in about maybe a weeks time (If you count in school or work.

And notice hes had a whole month. More than enough time. A lot of people goof around, or don't farm for gold (For lets say flying training) So its more time consuming.

However, I haven't played since last may, so this process could have been sped up.

Also if I remember correctly

Fire-Mass AoE, for raids? Instances maybe?

Arcane- Leveling I believe?

Frost-PVP

Frost I'm sure was a PVP thing, but I can't remember much about the other 2 correctly so I could be wrong.

Frost and Arcane are both very viable for PvP, Fire is just plain bad :p

But yeah, I had epic mounts, heirloom, etc.

Took a total of 4 days, 19 hours to get to 80.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
