In order for Raids to work...collision between players has to be removed. I already have enough of a hard time trying to position with 1 or even 2 people being on the mobs [filtered]. I can't imagine the mess when 5-6 other people are trying to poke things in the mobs [filtered] :P

No they don't lol. L2P friend.

Also the game has a myriad of content, and the path to 60 is already a long one.

If you rush it, sad for you, the rest of us are enjoying 2-3 hours play a day, not our fault if you played for 72 hours straight. The game even tells you to take a break, and the campfires (i believe) are there to force a short break before large encounters, and to break up long instances, if only to make you get out of your chair for a minute or 2.

But if you want to smash through it, accept that, like a car driving down an unfinished motorway, you are eventually going to have to stop, or go offroad.

People don't use Vortex Slash that much, even though its one of our hardest hitting skills, and AoE.

It's not worth using on single target mobs because over all things like Traverse Cut do more damage (the damage per hit adds up to being more than Vortex Slash). You have to waste time using roll or death from above (which means you're not doing damage) while wasting one of your dodge CDs.

It's not really the greatest ability for single target damage unless you're forced to roll. Even then your blade draw should be on CD anyways if you're doing everything right.

it does hit hard, but it has a longer animation pause than most abilities giving it an average/low DPS

it has a wider area of effect, but technically every ability is AoE isnt it? or is it omit from the "lower damage when you hit multiple targets" thing?
