Group Organization: A Primer (Part 2)
I got a lot of good feedback to last week’s post on tips for organizing groups, and what buffs benefitted what classes the most. Several people caught a couple small things I missed, which have since been added into the main post. Now, it’s time for me to finish that up by discussing the remaining [...]
