Mmmk, I'm east coast but we're usually on at the same time anyway, so it's fine. If there are any daily events and stuff then I'll just learn the time zone differences within a few days of seeing patterns in time.

You would be 3 hours ahead. There's an in-game clock when you mouseover the name on the mini-map. Shows ping too which is nice.

3 hours... hmmm thats not too bad.

Which do you think is better for a priest?

Human skill - Instantly restores 25% of max mana and removes/grants immunity to CC for 4 seconds

or Elf skill - 5 second root and 30% of max mana over 6 seconds.

I'm thinking Elf skill cuz a root helps with ranged classes, while an assassin or warrior would benefit more from the removal/immunity of CC
