I am glad to hear that you give us this credit. It can be hard to see clearly from our fights, because our skill drowned in overpowered epix, when we fought the top guilds.

As you say, I believe too that we could have rocked them all, with our tight organization, if we had been on an equal footing. Let us prove that in the next game!

------------------------

The thing about priests is, that there are different kinds. I was a shadowpriest, and I had alot of offensive duties too, while healingpriests can focus on only healing/remove magic.

I simply couldn't afford that luxury too much (I removed the occassional sheep of course, or if someone had been heavily lock-dotted). Furthermore, I believe I was better than most at crowd controlling. I often held spellcasters out of the fight for 15 secs with silence/fear, saved our people with a tactic fear, buying them a few seconds to be saved, or I helped our own healers (if we were more).

That meant that for instance I couldn't focus so heavily on removing magic, if I was to have any kind of damage output too. And to maintain any kind of tactical overview.

As you saw, Lindsay was alot better than me at dispelling (and may have been able to rival those in Twilight?), but she had no offensive capabilities...

Another thing is, that if the group is under heavy pressure, the priest(s) have 1-2 rogues on them non-stop, and then it can be really hard to do anything but survive. If you were so strong, then your healers were hardly under any such pressure.
