Subject: Re: Dex


Actually, I believe GZ has admitted that dex does
nothing in helping recovery from interruption by
casters. Recover from interruption is entirely based
on the channeling skill, contrary to what most casters
perceive.

On a side note people have asked whether the dex makes
a difference in missed notes. I do believe it does.
I went even from 124 or so to 112 and feel like I've
noticed a difference. This could be all in my head as
well. My missed notes, however, occur in bundles. It
is rarely one here and one there. It is usually 3-5
missed notes all in a group. Followed by relatively
long periods of no missed notes. So I'm thinking maby
my "bundles" just got bigger. Maybe before I would
have 1-3 missed notes in a row and now it is 3-5.
Just a thought.
