Not just twinks are mediocre players. Last night a group of us went to the
Bar/Armorer area in Sebilis. Was me (55 bard), 59 SK, 59 Necro, 53 shamen,
54 cleric, 54 paladin. We rocked the place, I had no trouble CC'ing
anything. Well this group broke up and I joined another group. Now for the
mediocre group----- me, 57 paladin, 52 cleric, 59 druid, 59 ranger, 54
rogue. The damage output on the second group was killin things fast. The
druid and the ranger were idiots though. They insisted on using root as
crowd control (even after I repeatedly told them I had been CC'ing with no
trouble for the last 2 hours in Bar/Armorer). The stupid ranger was pulling
singles by rooting the extras at the spawn points. So mid battle we would
end up with more mobs then if he had just pulled the 2 or 3 that where
there. Then he pulled the bar room (using this lame root pulling) we got 4
adds all once (they ported in on us). The cleric went invulnerable and just
as I got the adds under control the frickin druid evac'd us! Leaving the
invulverable cleric behind to die. /sigh

The 49 song is Shield of Song. Melody of Erjav is 50th not 49th.
