well, i read the first paragraph, and i may get flamed for this, but i had the priveledge of "hiring" Loving Mistress the other day to help my low level Warrior with some Shiverpeak quests. And since i know most people on GW are brutally sensitive to any form of constructive criticism, i didnt say much to her at the time for leaving many corpses behind and creating lots of wells, and only packing about 5-7 or so fiends, which she let die very fast, many times there were absolutely no minions. :-( i did bring it up, asking why she was using wells and leaving corpses. she only brought one animate skill (fiends), so she couldnt have created an army if she wanted to. but i didnt criticize too much, becuz 5-7 most the time was better than nothing and i didnt want her to leave... but, now that its over with, lol... i have to say that i thought it was terrible MMing job. the shiverpeaks, right outside Yaks is a MM's dream! TONS of close packed enemies, all with corpses (besides Ice Golems). i solo'd it with my previous necro/MM at like level 12 or something, packing probably 30+ minions at all times, making it incredibly fast and easy. my outlook on MMing, is that the more enemies, the more corpses, the better... needless to say, i think our entire party died twice (me, Loving Mistress and some henches) and had to go to rez zone, which should NEVER happen with an MM at probably the easiest spot in the game for MM's.... she was real nice and friendly as a person, and i hope i didnt just make an enemy, but yeah, it was a pretty bad MMing job, which is very typical from most other MM's in my experience in the game.
