[...] The Obscurecast Ep 24: Gnome Fawkes [...]
[...] speaking of Gnome, he has a guest spot on a Podcast up with Obscurecast because he is a fire Mage, and the UK was celebrating Guy Fawkes day where they get to make things [...]
Awesome show, lots of fun !
great episode! great to put a voice to Gnomeaggedon, and also, thank you for reading my question! i agree that blizz seems to have achieved pretty much the impossible with the current mage trees, and they all seem pretty balanced right now… it’s very nice to be able to use whichever spec you feel attracted to. the genesis of my question was just idly wondering where mages could possibly go from here (why mess with perfection, you know?). perhaps this is a topic that can be continued in general discussion on the Mana Obscura forum : )
Really glad you both enjoyed the show – we had a lot of fun recording it!
I agree about the Mage tree discussion – we’ll have to continue it on the forums
Absolutely loved it, it was brilliant.
