It's Luck-Lynn, also SoW is pronounced like mow or dough, not like cow or chow, freaking troglodyte cow humpers.
It's kinda silly in the first place to decide the phonetic intent of an acronym, but if you do that the sequence of letters "sow" is closer to more established words like How, Now, Cow, Bow (like bowing before somebody), Town, Clown, Brown.

If it were like "sew" it would be "so", not "sow".

Sow is a real word and there's already an established pronounciation. As a verb (to sow crops) it rhymes with low, as a noun (a female pig) it rhymes with cow.

i made a paladin/beastlord/necro and then ended up swapping the necro out for the mage and this was a good decision.

having a pretty good time, i like finding some 90/25 weapon on a vendor for like 5 silver. it's very munchkin but fun, i've managed to get myself killed a few times by overestimating my own power.

I have a SK/MONK/ROG and am loving it.

In addition to the fun of playing 3 classes on one character, the devs have added so many quality of life changes that make it incredibly easy (and productive) to play, even for 30 minutes. Need to quick step away from computer (kids/pets/partner aggro?), no problem as there's no loss of exp and no corpse runs!

I've listened to a few interviews with the dev team and they're reasonable/fun folks and are (cough) engaged with the community.

I would highly recommend giving it a chance (and maybe watch a few of the intro youtube videos floating around).

Nice what kind of bonuses do you think the monk is giving you?

Id SHM over monk - and genuenlly am happy because the SHM really helps me AOE mobs - but wonder if the monk provides some tools that I'd prefer for like soloing red dragons.

yeah, i made like 8 aa slaughtering in cazic-thule on my lunch break today, which is an hour. there's also a 50% exp bonus for april fool's but it's fast no matter what since the mobs are all like blue-white-yellow and die in seconds. my dude is lvl 30.

i even solo'd the avatar of fear after accidentally pulling him. thought i'd die instantly from Death Touch but maybe that's real cazic-thule, i've never been much for raiding, so i do not remember clearly... no rubicite bp though!!
