imagine:
you on guardian
me on monk
jesse on something that can use his swords
rex on monk
nev on his caster sammy O:
i reckon we'd tear up. nev has a bloody amazing catacomb setup, 100ee armour with 23 mana syphon, 130ee charm with 11 prof... he's absolutely tear catacombs to pieces and his mana would come back crazy fast. just have him sitting out the front while everyone else sits in the back / middle. 11 prof is enough for a pretty decent AoE chance.
trev i have a few crappy hm things you could have if you wanted. it's not the 40+ gear you used to have but it'll still be moderately useful, especially at lower levels
Everyone get to level 45ish and let's do it

I definitely want to try offensive casting in catacombs to see how it works

huh i thought you get mana syphon from hitting monsters?
Nope, you gain back mana used by the mob to attack you so it has to be caster mobs for it to work.
