Thank you, everyone, so much c: Sorry I didn't mention it before - I am a CW. My guild asked that I spec all into Control instead of damage, so my damage is just HAMSTER (like right only 300K above the healer, OUCH). We were having trouble burning down the Boss, before the adds overwhelmed us. I think it's a damage issue.…
Very informative, thank you for the post! I, another CW from the start, have been having difficulties. I have re-spec'd three times so far. My particular guild wanted me strictly control and not damage. However since we have been doing T2's, that isn't working as well. I can control well using Ice as my main controlling…
I have noticed the range of damage when partying with Rogues. It is quite staggering in the differences! I usually rank above the cleric in damage every time, Haha! Thank you for the advice on move order! I've been struggling with that for awhile. I usually have Sudden storm on tab, then I chill strike/shield push for the…

I am going for a 50-50 mixture so that my group gets a well-rounded effort on my part. (: I am leaning more Ice, than Arcane.…
I'm not an expert, but I also play CW, and I think good stats to aim for are Critical and Recovery. Critical for the obvious damage increase, but also Recovery because it lowers the timers on Encounter spells (which really helps). Deflection is relatively good also, along with Defense/or Armor Penetration. It all really…
Like others have said, it's definitely situational. I blend control and damage 50-50. If my groups needs Elites dispatched quickly, I can do it, or vice verse with control. Practice using the different combination of abilities with your class features. That way in any area, dungeon, skirmish, or PvP etc - You'll know…
I am a CW, but I do agree to a point. Yes, it is true that the CW's Ice Storm (Daily AOE) knocks back enemies and throws off targeting, however, it does come in handy when swarmed with mobs and the GF or GWF is overwhelmed. Or if the Cleric is taking too much hate and is about to die? On more than one occasion, I have…
