Just go to Wowwiki.com and they will show you what is best for leveling. The most common build for leveling is indeed a frost mage for two major reasons.

1. Frost yields more damage per mana point than fire does. While fire is better for BURST damage and thus the prime choice for PVP/Raiding. But frost is more mana efficient.

2. Frost Nova and Ice Barrier are two examples of the frost mage's greatest assets. Survivability. When you are soloing, you will need the ability to protect yourself while casting. Trying to shoot a high powered fireball at one of three mobs is very difficult when he's pounding you to dust.

So while I personally favor Fire and Arcane for the explosion, I must say that the best solo leveling build is a pure Frost Mage.

1. Graphics: Any person who calls himself a gamer wouldn't base the quality of games on the number of shapes and colors shown on screen.

2. Gameplay: The quality of gameplay is all relative to the player. Some people like sports games, some MMO, some FPS, some Adventure,and so on.

contradict much?

some gamers are graphic whores, some arent.

Try again...considering on one hand I'm talking about graphics and on the other hand I'm talking about gameplay. If you base you're opinion of the quality of a game on graphics then you're not a gamer, you're a movie critic. Graphics and gameplay is as apples to oranges. If you say Super Mario is a crappy game because of the graphics, how can you be a gamer? But if you grew up playing SNES as a kid, WoW has pretty darn good graphics. AoC will someday have terrible graphics, but that doesn't make it a bad game yet.

I don't know why ppl play them.... I mean the 3 factors that doom a game

1. Bad graphics...... all MMOs are here

2. Bad game play..... pretty much all of them are here to

3. Bad story line..... Yea no MMO's have a good solid story....

O ya if you have at least 2 of these it is a bad game!

Please don't take offense, but I have to give my rebuttal. Nothing personal, but...

1. Graphics: Any person who calls himself a gamer wouldn't base the quality of games on the number of shapes and colors shown on screen. That's just Juvenile. STRIKE ONE!

2. Gameplay: The quality of gameplay is all relative to the player. Some people like sports games, some MMO, some FPS, some Adventure,and so on.Now lets see..WoW has 9 million monthly subscribers which surpasses all other games in every genre to this date. My guess is that the people who pay for subscriptions obviously enjoy the gameplay rather well. Including the sad souls that like to "escape" from the real world through a video game. STRIKE TWO!

3. Storyline: Have you ever been to the WoW website and done any reading on wow lore? Or viewed the intro videos? Have you watched the reviews on AoC? Or heaven forbid I neglect to mention the countless number of people who don't even give a golden crap about anything dialogue in the game. Because most people just want to blow stuff up and slice it to pieces with their two ton axes. STRIKE THREE! OUT!

I was looking to buy a PS3 but I'm so confused.

I know the 40GB is the big seller now but it has no PS2 playback...sigh....Any info would be good. Like which version is the best? Is it worth buying? Is a price drop on the way? Anything will do...MGS4 and bluray just stole my heart away.

can anyone please explain how the ranked skill point system works for Free For All games?c0mplex

From what I can tell, you get a rank up for winning or getting 2nd or even 3rd place at times. Also, I've gone up in rank when I get an MVP or even a top metals. So I don't know for sure, but these are some of the things that raised my score.

I don't know how I'll ever find a response in this mess but I need some help...

Ok, my NAT setting is open, I've got a wired connection and everything runs great. My internect is broadband...best connection in my area. I play all kinds of online games with no trouble. For some reason, I can't join party invites and people can't join me. If anyone knows why this is, please tell me. This is so retarded.
