i fought zachary 1on1 and he was wanding AND potting in a one versus one fight against me. i eventually just ran off because it was just dull as anything :/

But were you using high level poisons or bleed? If people use specials then I think it's fair to use pots/wands back.

im a nox mage so maybe dped a couple times, np about pots on field, but wanding 1on1 even on field is kinda lame :(

Got to disagree there. There are many factors to consider during a "1v1 on the field"
I'll have no guilt in pulling a wand if someone wants to use gay speicals like bleed or lethal poisons to interrupt me with zero skill, I'll wand to heal myself with zero skill too.
Spell channeling weapons were a huge mistake, but one now so entrenched into the game and players mindsets that it could never be removed without a huge disruption.

But then I've never cared about honour or proving how good I am.

i've never wanded anything. I guess i would in certain gimp situations to stop me dying to noobs, but I can't be bothered. When you guys wand me 5 or more v me I don't really get it, but nps.

I lightening wand runners and use heal wand when I'm out numbered (most of the time)

and I pot all days against nox mages

I prefer my eggs sunnyside up, and I like fried slices with my fry ups

I like men with long green beards and tight fitting shoulder padded cloaks

and thats me

I fought that Zachary guy and lost... and I can say he pots... could hear all the time the "slurp slurp" sounds, then my heal spell didnt appear on crusor and I died

First time I met him then... second time I meet him in a dungeon, and he didnt stay still really long then (I am more secure in the real battle fields than infront of someones house)

I always die to Zachary.
IMO he is one of the better PvPrs I have come across.
He plays his template really really well, and seems to be a master of survival techniques.
He utilises everything available to him (Pots, wands, petals, and possibly invis items - cant be 100% sure on that one) and quite rightly so.

Hats off to him.

I've been impressed by what little i've seen of zachary, not least because he does play solo.

yeh il pot and wand alldays wen im out alone, you regularly end up fighting vs odds, and if i could afford it id prolly petal and use invis items like he does.

fair play to him

wanding when being ganked np but 1on1 when other person aint using bleed i still see as lame.. dp is instantly curable with pots, np with that, why need a wand as well?

zim zum it might seem like zachary plays alone, a lot of the time at brit gate at least i see the blue hordes cross healing him while hes being attacked by other players, hes got it good there tbh

zac does have a lot of lip service from the brit gate crew, generally lavee or kerrigan will turn up if Zac notices he only has 389 pots left and might actually have to fight on a level playing field :p
