So Windows Live Movie Maker sucks for video editing, will be looking for some new software if there is any interest in my video.. anyway about 75% through it would no longer let me save, so I just had to call it done. Anyway, enjoy b:cute

    Too much highlights of Calvin vs You or you vs friends imo. :o Not enough random pvp. Video quality wasn't that great either BUT... It does show that you're skilled. Lots of really good kiting and timed seals. Timed your ultis well so they wouldn't just be a charm tick and knew when it was better to sutra.

    It shows you're a pretty skilled wizard but wasn't as much fun to watch for me because of the set up friend matches. That's my take :O Maybe I'm just used to Transcends well cut videos though.

    Does this mean that you left it on 360 instead of bumping up the resolution?

    Good video for being the first, imo.

    Carvin needs a new genie, his ice permafails.

    I also appreciated the music, it was still ghey like others', by my metalhead standards, but at least not as invasive.

    @Kniraven - dunno what you are talking about with quality, I just took another look at it.. all text is perfectly readable for me. None of this video was set up at all, but I know what you mean about Calvin vs random pvp. I actually had to cut the video short, there was another "scene" I was trying to add but Movie Maker was throwing a fit and wouldn't let me save if I did so. But in any future videos I'll try to balance 1v1's with random pvp a bit more :)

    @Damaged - I actually got that genie the same day all of that was recorded, kept forgetting I could use genie spark :P

    I wanted to add the 1v1 we did at north like the day before, but I wasn't recording then (that was what made me want to record our next 1v1). I was gonna add in at least one clip that you killed me in, but stupid movie maker wouldn't let me finish it. Maybe on my next video b:sad

    @Amour - Trade you weps! b:victory But psssh, you're still the best mage on the server <3

    You sure are a very skilled wizard. Could not do that on my wiz. I love the part where they go 3 or 4 on one against you and still take ages to kill, lol. And of course sage bids crits are great to watch, especially since you deliver them exactly the moment it hurts most. b:chuckle

    Now, this is a real wizard pvp video! Not like the other video where the wizard was showing his ganking and file swaping skills. In my opinion you have great skill. I just wonder, where you recording our little fight over secret passage? ;o

    I wish.. about half way through I considered recording it, but it lags my comp for like 5-10 secs after I start.. figured if I started recording you'd have your nix out and have me half dead before I could do anything >.>

    This is the vid, that made me realise how far I am from being a good mage.

    This is the vid of one of 2 people who taught me all I know about pvping and mage gear.

    You are by far one of the top 5 mages in this game, period.
    "It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

    Decent pvp, solid kiting.

    However, you never ever used WotP. That's a fairly major dps loss that I see you commiting consistently. As well, all but one last kill was "Kite until BIDS stun crit"

    As much as I love BIDS I think you should get a lot more variety in there, as far as KBs go.
    Bladestorm lets you spin around like a carnival ride and do damage. Not using it is almost like having a move called Confetti Rocket Power Leap and saving it for "emergencies"

    Actually that little part where I killed xWizz (before fighting Calvin) I did use WotP. I actually use WoTP fairly frequently in pvp, just not in this video. Against Calvin, dps was useless.. I could never get through his charm with dps (had to bypass it), I was only atking him for chi and getting him to just over 50%. Not to mention I'm able to start casting gush/pyro from a farther range.

    Maybe you don't know that Calvin/Marzenia/El33tDeath all significantly outgear me, and all of them are good at playing their class.. any one of them can kill me in less than 3 secs if they caught me when I'd be taking full damage. Standing there trying to out dps them would end in me getting owned. There are only 2 ways I can atk them while they are not atking me.. FoW and sleep. When they are FoW'd they can just drop to take half damage from my ulti.. which leaves me with sleep. In regards to my ulti choice, I don't have enough -channeling (only have -18%) to land MS while they are still slept.. so they have a chance to use an apoth pot or start dropping etc. That leaves me with BIDS and BT.. and BIDS does more damage + has a crit buff. Against people closer to my gear range I have more choices, but this is kinda what I was stuck with.

    Record more videos of people with similar gear then, I'm interested to see how you play it against them.

    I forgot how unbalanced PWI's PVP can be most of the time b:cute

    edit: I'd upload some of my WoW PVP stuff but arena season 8 ends tonight and doesn't start up again until Dec 14th. b:cry

    I was waiting for you to post! Would love some constructive feedback as I've never made a video before this, and your videos are hands down the best pwi videos out there. Would love any little tips you might have to offer :P I know you use Fraps for screen capture, but what program did you use to edit your movies? (Definitely need to find something better than Windows Live Movie Maker)
