i agree with slush. i enjoy playing pl just as much now that ive gotten used to gcd as i used to. however i will say that while i enjoy playing with my bear alot more, i have a harder time playing with my mage now. i believe that this is because gcd actually helps my tank dish out a constant stream of damage if timed correctly. unfortunately its not as great on my mage because mages, at least pure int "glass cannons" like mine, need the nuke ability alot more than my tank, for the simple reason that all a boss has to do is look in my direction and my mage dies. the nukes used to somewhat counter their horrible armor situation. now i rarely play her because i die more and more frequently. it is akin to declawing a cat.
i do think that the gcd almost forces people to work together, which is something that has been gone from pl for a long while. i like that aspect of it quite a bit.
