Hi, I played Rift back in June 2011 but decided to stop because I didnt feel like paying for 2 MMOs at the same time.
Now that Rift is F2P and I have stopped playing WoW, I have decided to come back.
Anyways, I'm leveling a Warrior right now (45) and wanted to try out the Tempest. However, there were certain things that were somewhat unclear to me so I decided to open this thread.
So, to the questions:
1. How does the tempest perform at high level pve (dungeons, raids...)? In terms of damage, playstyle, etc.
2. Why doesn't the soul have percentage damage scaling, like any other soul has? (meaning you get 1% dmg for each point spent in the tree)
3. I tend do miss/get dodged a lot more often when I play tempest compared to my paragon build. Is that a thing or am I imagining things?
4. I'd say I know pretty good what talents to chose from for a PvE orientated spec, however, my builds usually differ from those on riftscene etc. Is the site legit or am I just stupid? (The proposed spec suggests things like taking 10% builder damage instead of 10% strength increase, I dont know...).
5. I read on a similar site that you can play the tempest buy pressing 2 macros over and over. Is that true? Because that would be a huge turn off for me.
I guess that was it. Thanks in advance.
