30 CW here, decked in mostly greens. Hardly ever have to use a potion, 2-3 maybe on a boss-fight. The few dungones and PvP's I've entered has had me on 1-3 in damage... To say the CW is weak? No... not at all.
I just vendor greens and put the occasional blue on AH for some measly AD. Greens drop in such abundance right now so there's little need to look for them at all while you're leveling up.
Heh, and when you get server connection problems the banter just queues up so that you get them in rapid succession when the connection is re-established...
Not sure if you are trolling but you CAN just close the patcher when you need the connection for other things, or if you are downloading the installer, use the torrent version.
Riiight... SSDs are great for gaming-rigs, so is a 10K Velociraptor or equivalent. SSDs aren't that good for serious video editing, for that you need Big HDs and LOTS & LOTS of RAM, preferably a RAM-disk, if you can afford it. Do some research.
