Introduction
Our Guild, Ascalon City Heroes [Ache], is really small and revolves around the two of us playing PvE: Quests, missions and developing characters, e.g. by capturing Elite skills. Our Guild used to be more active, but we lost more than half of our players to World of Warcraft. I still don't get why you would want to pay an exorbitant monthly fee for a game so obviously inferior to Guild Wars.

Outside the Guild
I'm a student of Information Technology, more specifically programming. My favourite programming languages are PHP and C# and I always use MySQL databases. I have a small server at home running an Apache webserver and an UnrealIRCd IRC server 24/7.

Obviously, I play games as well. My favourite game of all time is probably Diablo II. After a great time our whole clan split into World of Warcraft and Guild Wars players when the two games came out. Later on, most of the Guild Wars players used their life savings to get World of Warcraft as well (Irony: An unfortunate and coincidental turn of events that could have been avoided had all parties involved known more. ).

I also like reading books. English books, mind you. Don't get me started on Dutch "literature". The last book I finished was Dune: House Atreides, and since I'm waiting for the postman to deliver House Harkonnen and House Corrino I've decided to read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in between. Furthermore, I really like Stephen King's stories and J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.

Strenghts and Weaknesses

 * Strenghts:
 * Deals a continuous stream of lightning damage.
 * Uses a cheap spirit to gain energy through Essence Strike and increase damage for Spirit Burn.
 * Supports the party with Splinter Weapon and Ancestors' Rage, though the latter can be tricky to target properly.
 * Weaknesses:
 * No Elite skills on this character.
 * Even though it is among the fastest recharging Binding Rituals, Pain still takes 30 seconds to recharge.
 * High Communing seems wasted on only one Spirit.

Previous Skill Setup


 * Additional weaknesses:
 * Channeled Strike is a waste of energy since it is never boosted by an Item Spell.
 * Spirit Rift is easy to dodge with its 3 second delay.
 * The delay between casts is too big.
