FIRESTORM CLASS LIST FOR WEEK OF MAY 6-14TH

Firestorm Classes

These classes are based on our official Firestorm release and are conducted in voice and text except when otherwise noted. There's no need to talk, but you may want to be able to hear. We also usually have help available to answer questions in text.

Note that it is best if you are on Firestorm for the classes.
