[@murff7518]

Definitely gonna have to give this a shot at some point. It looks fun. Looks like it plays similar to stormcaller.

[@ChamberDown]

+tyler murphy Kinda yea, main difference is the whole icy shards thing. It's actually more competitive than people might think. There just isn't a whole lot of theory craft out there for it, so I had to spend a lot of extra time putting it together haha.

[@vekai3964]

intro made me typhoon all over myself

[@ChamberDown]

+Vekai Haha, I'm glad you liked it! =D

[@Tagger948]

dear chamber down:
I really miss your vids, new souls are out and your my only hope mastering them^^ pls come back. maby you are very busy and cant play enough but you are such an important "rift RUclipsr"
your Daniel :)

[@ChamberDown]

+Daniel Brunner Hey! Thanks! hehe. I do plan on doing some more, I'm just waiting for some bugs to get worked out. Last time I did guides right after Primalist came out, loads of stuff changed, kinda making me nervous I spent all that time on outdated guides =D. don't fret, I'm working on some more.

[@Tagger948]

I totally understand this. I would get a temper tantrum hahah
But I'm glad that you are still alive :P and im so happy that u don't have forgotten your potential of your RUclips channel :) wish u the best and a gn8 week!

[@UnderworldXII]

Would love to see a beastmaster guide, since i feel theres hard to find good ones out there, and it brings many benefits to a raid, notably Enrage and Command to Stand Ground, it is frequently under-utilized, mainly because of its overlap with the mage raid support soul Archon and because it is infamous for being the "hardest" raid support but other then that would love if u could whip up something. for those 20man raid days.

[@ChamberDown]

I'm about to come back with a bunch of guides here soon, I just wanted to wait for things to settle after new soul releases.

[@gummieboy16]

+ChamberDown do a guide on frost keeper and warchanter

[@ChamberDown]

+gummieboy16 Been working on Frostkeepr and a whole bunch of other guides, but all this talk of changes makes me nervous to record/edit guides until it settles hehe. A lot of work goes into these, and I"ll be disappointed if they're obsolete right after I release them.

[@Lithmygoo]

Hurricane also does increased damage on 3 or less targets and is the hardest hitting ability typhoon has when doing so. :D Typhoon is currently the best 3 target cleave spec in the game because of it.

[@ChamberDown]

+Lithmygoo Must have missed that in that tree, either that I forgot about it during recording. Thanks!

[@Lithmygoo]

+ChamberDown ya, it's actually not in the tool tip because they forgot to add it so easy to miss lol

[@ChamberDown]

Lithmygoo Well that's fun! hehe. Thanks for the heads up.

[@MichaelHolmChristensen]

Would be cool with a 4.x update know many people look for and play with aoe dps and mystic like trying to get an ultimate aro and support class seperate soul or hybrids. thanks for greate vids please keep em comming.

[@ccextremegamer4407]

hey man i was wondering what is the best rogue marksman or assassin ? i watched the guide videos you made but i was just wondering

[@ChamberDown]

+CCExtremeGamer Assassin does much more single target damage than Marksman does, however Assassin is a melee spec requiring you to stay relatively close to the target most of the time, so there is more risk involved.

[@Redwud3381]

Any chance of doing some more mage videos? I really like the way you do your guides.

[@ChamberDown]

Yea. I have some stuff ready for mage her pretty soon, but I'm waiting on archon and warlock changes to roll out =)

[@ChamberDown]

+Zachary Carr Welp, I took a serious interest in the mage the last few days, and as of last night, he's doing T2. You can probably expect a Warlock, Harbinger, Chloromance, and Frostkeeper guide. If those are souls you're interested in (or maybe you've already mastered them, who knows!)

[@Redwud3381]

+ChamberDown All but Frostkeeper as it's gonna be a while before I get it.

[@kimmie_coe4858]

chamberdown with the new 4.1 patch and new souls is there a good leveling spec without using maelstrom

[@ChamberDown]

Sorry for the late reply, I've had a lot going on as of lately. Anyway, try this build. I havent leveled my primalist for this expansion yet, but at first glance, this seems like it could work.

[@donruwanwijendra6379]

Any chance you'd do a Titan guide? Can't find any good videos on them :(

[@ChamberDown]

It's on the list, although I've been pretty busy with real life at the moment, but I hope to get back into the swing for 4.0. We'll see.

[@hizzlefix1781]

Can u make a dps macro guide for my druid/shaman/inquisitor? Main druid.

[@ChamberDown]

+Hizzlefix Not too sure what you're looking for here. Is this a one off build you created? What is the goal with that spec?
