i found it easier to just play agressively with psn nova vs ES sorcs, keeping them on their toes so to speak.

i always felt that spear/spirit didnt do very much vs them anyhow, as long as they had mana up it was like hitting a brick wall with a rubber hammer :P and at early stages as a necro without psn nova vs ES just a cat and mouse game, they keep chasing me and try to get FB in, i get 1-2 spear spirits off every now and then but it just didnt do enough and eventually they will get lucky and get a few FB in and your low on life and you have to play agressively cause if you play the "safe" game you will just lose due to their mana reg / rep life.

playing with psn nova agresivly worked alot better for me, just wear their life down with it, yeah it takes a few casts but still ES negated and when they are low on life they try to play safe and rep life, every time you get close they spam a few FB's your way and then tele away to keep repping life, but now you can just go all out and wait for a good position and kill them with a few spears. or if they arent that good you can just IBS them down.

we were?

but yea well it would make more sense that it would not reset the timer as the skill isn't exactly cast. but who knows, there's a lot of stuff that doesn't really make sense on paper and if marvel has ingame experience with this (i don't) then i guess it works like he said

Its like 2480 or so, but Iam gonna take a long time stacking mana's just after they precast, and I can ask for mana's 100 times and rep without bo :)

And.. 2400 seconds is ONLY 40 mins which is ONLY 2/3 of an hour which is ONLY 1/36th of a day, its np
