  1. very good video but a quick thing with the slidecasting emote trick – the emote lights up at around .35 seconds remaining when you can slidecast at around .5s remaining so it isn't something to rely on once you have learned to slidecast comfortably

  2. Sick video. Really tight editing, script, and voiceover that does an excellent job getting the fundamentals across way more efficiently than any other community resource I've seen over the years.

  3. Hey momo. As a long time sch player that has returned to healing but now as an astrologian, i'm having a very hard time keeping my tank alive during trash pulls in particular.

    What confuses me the most is what sect to play, because by using the logic for big pulls you should go nocturnal for the shield to mitigate or that's what i think at least, but i find my tank dropping low. On the other hand if i go diurnal and there're no shields, my tank pretty much dies. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
