It's temperate flux, as in it makes the monster more vulnerable to temperature (fire and cold resists go down). It has nothing to do with time!

Pretty good post other than that, though I'm still skeptical about putting starting points into STA (since the HP return is so tiny for casters) and I'm pretty sure I quadded Everfrost mammoths successfully once I got AE snare at 29 without considerable twinkage. (I think I might have quadded even before AE snare when a kind druid tossed me a SoW.) If you don't have JBoots at that level you can still beg SoWs off of people and/or buy a SoW potion or two if you manage your money well.
Agree with this. For 99% of the p99 population i think putting most points into INT will yield the best returns, unless you know for a fact that you're wiz is going to have BiS equipment when they hit 60. But even if that's true, you still have to go through levels 1-59 before you get there. Is it worth it to gimp your INT for those levels to have 30 extra hitpoints (if that) by level 60?

I also quadded mammoths quite easily, but they turn light blue at 32, and this seems to be a weird level in terms of finding the right mobs to kite. Stuff in OT is still a bit too high. Where is a good place to quad at 32 & 33, preferably stuff around level 25? (SK spires not enough mobs.)
