Nice movie but I hope fraps or whatever recording thing you used made you play worse than you normal play because.. well..
Positioning yourself in battle was just wrong, spread out away from the BL tanks don't run into them.. chain cast root? why? if it's to interrupt someone you are better off shearing, less mana cost and interrupts the target as much as root does plus it kills their buffs.

I won't mention the spreadheal as that has been mentioned alot already but if 1 person in your group is going down please use a single target heal eventhough you say your healing targets are not in view this has much to do with the way you position yourself in a fight.
If targets are starting to go down slowly try and use the base groupheal, low mana cost and heals enough to make sure your groupmembers stay above 75% health and above all its alot faster than SH.
What I also saw you do was using your RR5 against an assist train, now I haven't played around much with the Druid RR5 but I do know it resets the stun immunity thus when it ends your just stunned right after again which will cause you to be stunned for double the duration that your actually should have been stunned.

If a tank is on you I saw you walk a bit forward not doing much else which would be understandable if you were BG'ed but half the time you weren't so I'd suggest to spiral/strafe to make sure that assist train misses all their styles or hits on you it will give you those vital extra seconds you might need to survive and makes it alot easier for the other Druid(s) in your group to keep up with the heals instead of having to focus primairy on you.
There is not much you can do with the assist train on you anyway so you might aswell spiral/strafe unless you have MoC up of course though using MoC with an assist train on you aint always the best idea either.

This is not a flame towards you or your group but just a few pointers which might help improve your playing style some.

Depends abit, if the target is rooted, spamming AE root with 2.5 sec cast-time and 10 mana cost is the fastest way to interrupt someone. It's also AE incase another enemy member is close to there. My own AE-root is only 6 power which is half of a buffshear, and AE and it casts faster. Incase someone has a high duration root on him already, AE-rooting will not break it, buffshears do. Furthermore buffshears are longer cast-timer.

I won't mention the spreadheal as that has been mentioned alot already but if 1 person in your group is going down please use a single target heal eventhough you say your healing targets are not in view this has much to do with the way you position yourself in a fight.

I agree, but on the other hand, if he positions himselves in the middle of the fight (close to BL tanks) he should have a better chance on LOS with his groupies then at the back tho

Correct, however in slash-weak armour, druids die fast to slash-tanks. The RR5 RA is a good 'heal-up' on them AND gives your BG (if ur on Voice-com) 5 seconds more to react to come to you to bodyguard you. I personally use it often for that. Not all tanks have the IQ to restun, nor do all tanks have easy accessable stuns. I find the RR5 RA often useful against the assist-train just to make sure Mesch <3 reaches me before I die

What amuses me is why you didnt help gol to kill the mids that added as groove helped you to kill gol? no you backed off and took the cowards way out. Groove at least helped, you did fuck all to help gol in that fight.

We knew that gol never would've backed off , they were attacking us the entire fight . TTT etc even tried to follow us to rebuffspot
And I got no clue how you can say that we had problems vs GoL group when I had 70% mana and noone had lower then 90% hps until midadds killed our bard.

RR5 saved me several times in the vid vs tanktrains ? Zerks dont have stun and bg kicked in vs the mercenaries.
And about the 'groupheal' if someone takes dmg to lets say 75%. do you think he will stop taking dmg then ? No, he wont he will lose more hps in more then 50% of the cases. And with 4 tanks in groups druids get _loads_ of aggro so it doesn't matter if I stay back or not , the only difference is that I cant interrupt /shear sms which is their man dmgdealers if I dont position myself in their los. With casters in group I could play alot different but we didn't have any , believe me I've tried to stay back or at the sides but tanks instantdie from sms and it sucks to not have a good overlook at the fight. And you are right about the 'chainroot' spam part should only cast root once and then do something else and then root again but easy to spot mistakes afterwards

Heh, get over it, it's a hundred times easier to scrutinize a video and offer comments on the playing than it is to actually make a video of your own. Time to put your money where your mouth is (i.e. make your own movie) for those harping away at the playstyle.

they call that positive criticism(sp?)..

normal ppl would like that, ppl with a big self-esteem and big ego don't like it.

 

[Urgluf]

agreeded with belo

so if you disagree with someone critisism you are not supposed to explain why you do certain things? Or is that all about your self-esteem ?

 

[popa]

Lorfo m8 is that shield and club landrine drop ?

 

[Lorfo]

shield is crafted club is rog from zo'arkat iirc

ofcourse not, was not aimed at you, was aimed at belomar's post.

Fixing premiere is no probs...
Just do like this.

1) Uninstall Premiere
2) Get your hands on Vegas.
3) Install Vegas.
4) Release movie.

Done.

Premiere is really REALLY bad at encoding.
Every time i used to encode movies in premiere i got this nice little error on the rendered movie.

http://chogall.mine.nu/mhm2.jpg

A few other people that i've helped with Premiere has gotten the same result so i advice people to not use it.
Only way i found to avoid that in premiere is rendering the movie uncompressed = lots of space.

i know, rendering stuff from premiere is really fucked up. but then again, like you said, i can easily avoid the problems by rendering it uncompressed and compressing it in vdub after - and im just so used to premiere i simply don't want to work with anything else.

after lots of digging around in forums i found the problem finally, so i can start editing wee!

explain why you add on me xD

 

[Jarahl]

I think its a really nice movie. Finally a movie where there are some fights vs albs and mids as well, not just hib vs mid

Personally I find some of the already stated facts to be true. I play cleric and that is pretty much the closest thing u get to a druid I see you spreadheal ALOT when just 1 target is going down. Why not just target him, try a single heal and if out of view, spread? Thats what I usually do and it works like a charm. Ofc if Blazeh and Aragvain is hitting him while Staj is nuking him or something, not much can save him, but you get the point?

Other than that, ace movie if u ask me

p.s. It was from the 6th October you say? Givf some Synergy fights, Im pretty sure we was out that day, think we ended up pretty much even, maybe you guys 1 or 2 ahead

 

[Arid|Disci]

someone telling shadowz to learn how to strafe ?:<
ammagad

 

[Vodkafairy]

big problem is that often when you try to singleheal the target is out of los, = waste of time and might even result in the person dying. ofcourse there are better positions for singletarget healing but he did a good job choosing to be more offensive imo.

sure lorfo brings pre-spreadhealing to a totally new level but well beats people dying, and the greater heal soaks more mana then spreadheal anyways. every grp needs a different style to play against and i think he does it pretty nicely.

 

[Lorfo]

heey, someone have this video ?

 

[Lorfo]

heey, someone have this video ?

found it.
Yes I play total crap in 1 fight, interrupting with spellqueue while people die^^
People that complain about positioning have clearly never played in a tankgrp vs sms that instantkill your tanks xD.
And people that complain about spreadheal have clearly never fought in agramon hills vs disease. And they have never heard about PRE-healing.

Funny you mention cause Andrilyn is like rr12 and one of the best clerics i´ve seen ever. And as for MoC groupheal it really depends on the damage taken overall in group... if only 2 ppl droping down groupheal aint that good cause waste of mana and even with moh5 dosent overheal the damage taken (not to mention desease)

 

[MaditioN]

amagad!

 

[Jika]

you suck lolfo xD

 

[swords]

Pre-healing is for geezers

 

[Ljuvasara]

Daemyr, got any vids lying around from Agramon-Dyvet that you would want to share? Pretty please? -pretty please with sugar on top? Maybe one when Slirre charges in and dies horribly? Or maybe even one where I do? (I never do.. nuh-uh)
