The great thing about soloing an ice burrower (maybe I'll do again in the future and video it... does anyone want to watch a 2 hr video of spamming snare, bracer and shoot?!) is it takes so long you can really mix up and experiment with strategies.

Sounds like the ball joint separator sitting in the bottom of my real-life toolbox out in the garage. It has its use (name kinda hints), I've used it before, might use it again sometime, but it's pretty dirty from neglect and basically just sits there taking up space.

I always find it fascinating how people will spend hundreds of DKP and many hours of raid time to get a flowing thought I item on their Ranger.

But they won't spend 500 pp and 40 clicks to get a flowing thought I equivalent via Tolan Gloves.

People will happily swap out their ToV weapons for swarmcaller to proc it. This is no different than swapping your BiS gloves for some free mana.

You can see my ranger modeling it here. https://wiki.project1999.com/Ye_Auld_Ball_Peen_Hammer

Cos you’ll never fill your inventory, wish for more space and decide you want 400pp + an extra item slot than a swarmy when visiting a vendor.

I understand the inventory game. Most of my bags are full of resist gear and clickies. You would simply think spending like 700+ DKP on Eye of Cazic Thule means you think a Flowing Thought I item is well worth carrying around/equipping. It may be worth an bag slot more than something else.

Maybe it'd be worth saving a spell slot for. IDK, I've always kept at least one snare on bar.

It gives you more options for sure. I sometimes have 0 FD spells on my bar, and rely exclusively on BE Greaves for FD.

Fall down pants are mighty fine, and that is why my vote is for SK!

IMHO, if you can cast snare and/or root, FD and DA…those are always on the bar.

Dying ironically is the most painful way to die.
