Tore and Rock

I don't hate Tor Anroc.

I just hate playing it ALL the time.

Why oh why oh why can't anything else pop? Temple of Isha, maybe? The one with the graveyard? (I can't even recall the name, as I've only been in it 2 or 3 times.)

Now, I've heard the assertions that Order ONLY queues up for Tor Anroc. But is this really true? If so...why?

Is it because of their knockbacks?

After her nth trip into the lava during one game, Sycorax asked, "Does *ALL* of Order have knockback abilities?" It certainly feels that way sometimes.

I don't think Order is overpowered by any means. I think Mythic did a pretty good job of faction balance. I just happen to think that there is one scenario in which the levels and abilities don't work out quite so nicely.

Also...it's a shame to ignore so many other scenarios in favor of Tor Anroc. The game itself isn't so bad. Hold ball, kill things. I like it.

The lava isn't so much fun, but I'm ok with it in moderation. (I love landing on a rock and still being able to heal my group. It's like that Ironbreaker did me a favor by giving me a lava moat! Also...being on a rock as an Order player desperately hops towards it -- that's priceless. Congratulations, you're saved from the lava. But due to your 1% health, I'm afraid you aren't really saved from the healer. Bwahaha.)

But the other games involve killing too! It isn't like your options are between "Tor Anroc, the massive bloody death and killing zone!" and "Temple of Isha, the rainbow brownie and pillow fight zone!" -- Death happens in ALL scenarios (although brownies are really tasty...)
