User:Soothsayer122

Well-met! I am The Soothsayer. You can find me on the Artemis server, usually either gathering or performing various tasks for my guild, Unbroken, in which I am an officer.

About my classes
Thesoothsayer is the very first character I ever created for RoM. When I got started I assumed (correctly) that I'd be adventuring alone for probably 20+ levels. Perversely, I chose the two classes least capable of enduring much damage. This (coupled with the well-known weakening of the Scout class shortly before beta ended) almost made me give up on poor Sooth altogether, so frequent were his fatalities.

Luckily, I had a couple of TP resets handy, so I focused on mage skills (fire specifically), and now I'm not a complete waste of bandwidth anymore. In fact, I play this character far more frequently than my others. Nevertheless, my recent experience suggests that leveling up a mage/scout around the 30s is very hard to do without help.

About my professions
I'm a level 30+ Herbalist and am slowly working my way to that level of Carpentry. As far as I'm concerned, the jury is still out on whether crafting is worth it. (It's certainly a lot less of a waste of time if you're in a guild.)
