that would have been better but grats on the kill

Well, it spawned when I was in the Roc Arena helping kill the statues and the uniques that come after. Yarkan spawned during that time and after all the mini-uniques were killed, I uh... "suffered a DC"

(screw getting killed by Roc, no one was gonna kill him that night, and a few hours later proved I was right anyway)
Relogged, checked Rev6 to see that Yarkan was still alive, and went straight to the Arena and found him at about 65% health by some D9 Wizard. That is when I started filming. I almost got a following Tiger Girl kill afterward, but that very same wizard that I took the Yarkan kill from killed Tiger girl.

Meh, no offense but this is just switching to rod every 12 secs to use healing orbit and maybe a heal and then back to staff to nuke away
But yes, he does know how to play seeing his pvp vids =]
Only reason why I did Healing Orbit in this case, rather than Cycle like I normally do in PvP, is because I did not want to lose sight of Yarkan. Honestly, he is a midget compared to his spawns, and I didn't want to waste precious time and energy killing off the Giants surrounding him, just to click on him.
My PvP playing style is loosely based off of how a Warrior/Cleric does. I figure, if they can do ultra-fast switching and be successful a decent amount of times; why not apply that to Wizards and prove to the entire Silkroad community that Wizards can indeed PvP successfully. Warlock/Clerics have already done it, although their style is constantly having their opponent powerless to attack back because he/she has so many curses sitting on top of them that they just have to tank it out if they don't have Purification Pills and/or other means of healing those statuses -- so it is not quite the same.
But that right there is my motivation for still playing this game -- proving that Wizards, when played right can be good PvP characters and not die in one shot like the stereotype is. Now, is it the best build out there for PvP? No. Of course not, there are invariably much better builds suited for the task, and I don't expect to win every single PvP match I get into -- to think otherwise is putting unrealistic expectations on myself. That is why I have spent so much time farming at a high level, despite the obvious clues that this game is corrupted and ran by a lazy-ass company that tries to milk every dollar they can before it inevitably dies.
I don't demand perfection, but dammit, I will put everything I've got at my resource to make it happen to the best that I can do.
One of the Air Force core values is Excellence In All We Do, and I do no less for this game as well as my career.
