Haven't been able to stick with a character since they changed ABS (Added all the new locs). I like playing mages (just can never stick it out with other character types, bit of an academic irl so I guess it translates to what I enjoy pretending to be). Don't have a ton of free time and it took me ages to learn most of the old locs (still don't know them all). Seems like they are set to be competive with full ABS (Ok maybe just B but still)(yes I know very well it is possible to play without it but for what I want out of the game at this point you need it for a lot of situations).

Tried a character or two since then but really haven't been enjoying myself so I have hardly played at all since then and none for the last 2-3 months. If I wanted an endless grind that caters to ELITE players (those with lots of time to invest) I would play WoW instead.

Still I like the mandatory RP and it will probably bring me back one day.
