I bet if you got used to the mechanics and playstyle you definately could be quite the killer. It might be like trying to write with your left hand, but with the right macros and hotkeys set I am sure once you got it down smooth it could definately rock.

I am determined to try it, at first with at least one wingman...though it does seem more a PK gank temp...I will try to solo it when I start to get it down.

anatomy without wrestling is not a terrible template, but the moment you get on defense you will start running into some serious trouble.

1 hally hit is often 30-40 damage which is 11 mana of greater heal or 8-12 mana in minis. with wrestling you are avoiding that damage 50% of the time, but without wrestling it will be more common so essentially you will run yourself dry on mana a lot while on the defensive. defensively running yourself out of mana is enough of a problem when you DO have wrestling.

you can get about 2-3 minis between a hally swing but without wrestling you are really limiting yourself to 2 unless you want to risk the 100% chance of getting whopped by a weapon.

in summary.. there's a reason why most of the "top pvpers" dont touch this template.

Yeah, but holding down shift you can throw a Yew table down with a precast. So it would be at least for the tank mage, Precast, arm bow, get folks to follow...drop table, shoot bow, release spell, harm or LB, pick up table hally

With quick table pick up macro of course

Gauge the damage of lets say power Hallys and X-bows in combination with the damage of Meteor Swarm alone...most likely they will be g-healing so by the time you pick up the table put in your pack and arm the hally your instahit should be ready.

Whether or not the hally hits is of no concern, you blew their insta...and can double harm hally them again.

You can use small table macros for taking shots or prepping a precast, once it is up the Yew table shiftkey thing should suffice. Totally depends on the area though. Open spots might need Yew Tables.

not sure if serious

Why not? Tables are used as barriers not only for escape but also temporary bunkers for missile fire.
