Heretics onslaught

[arre]

did same damage to Kobe that to Liora.
Was Liora sanced too ?

bug ?

[deda]

well, if massacres is same as mangles, then you are right.

yes, bug - missed bash triggers warrior spirit. I pressume renx was in offense.

[Durewn]

missed bash set's you into the rested state, seems this is more impotant

[bluesky]

Clan rules alow you to give up if you have 3 enemy on. Or if you tried and died. Or if you tried three times and you couldnt. There was no need to come back so many times. Clan members have duty to defend. They can lower their agression but they must defend.

[Maerryji]

Durewn has a point: game, especially at high ranks, depends on clothes far too much. Couple of items may comprise third of your power. Full loot makes most classes completely useless for hours.
You can get much adrenaline by risking your clothes, but a failure will cost you hours of boredom and frustration. And I'm not even sure there's a way around it if you need the adrenaline.

and ooc do you really want to have no enemies ?

Actually creating a ruthless horde is a nice way to get enemies. Worthy ones, not those deleting after a first bit of frustration. Who wouldn't be proud of themselves when they destroy them?

[bluesky]

Sac all eq and it will keep enemy busy for some time, and your powers pretty safe? Sounds like plan It leads to boredom though.
Eq is important but it is distributed to good and evil. There is way to make countereq. Also for Honor Face, bloodline divine can give nice amount, for example. But it is probably going to far...
Though... this bashing is quite lethal... balance maybe... and wielding staff for standoff?

Worthy enemies as you understand it wont fight until they have more power then takhisis cabal have, and it is required to have a pack of persons willing to fight you, to withstand 2 shadows, and geared outcast with two support chars. I doubt it is possible (to find ooc group of 3+ seasoned players willing to do it) in current deserted solace. Again, you are clever, and will not fight when odds are against you. Even more boredom to grow these hypothetic characters.

As for facts others, takhi just lost 2 of 3 opponents shown in logs. The best armed battlestation goes to salvage if loose it's purpose - to crush.

[Maerryji]

Do I need to explain how to fight such a horde? Discreetly. Bashing with forehead indeed won't do the trick, unless you've got 5-7 bashers.
Only Renx there gives the impression of certain battle skill. 3 skillful players would have at least even chances against them. Four even moderately skillful players (3rd-4th decile) would be an overkill. Two clans with 3+3 players above average would make an interesting (and most likely victorious) war.

"Just lost two opponents shown in logs" — so what? People who can't stand tough situations delete. And they should (it's better than whining here). And Durewn just did not like his thief. Your point is "if Takhs have no decent enemies, they should have tried to save these to avoid boredom"? I'd say Edge's more interesting.

Durewn, BTW, what do you think about the competition I proposed? Now that you're free

[arre]

Did i say i do not know 'how to fight such a horde' ? Create another horde, yeah. The point was it will hardly be created in the near future, and non-horde players will avoid to fight the horde as long as Renx conduct himself as he does now.

It is very similar to full crap loot for me. Bad form.

Seems we get no common conclusion.

[zondra]

i don't think sacing all the persons eq is right unless they saced yours before.

[Maerryji]

"non-horde players will avoid to fight the horde as long as Renx conduct himself as he does now."

Which is good for Renx. More time to travel to Edge.
I don't see your point. He should let non-horde players have their powers? He can't. He should let them take it back, then come and take it again? Seems like a waste of time to me. Any other options?

[bluesky]

1. From my point of view, Renx ok.
2. Strikethrough font effect sux.

Long ago I were playing a Solamnia half-elven knight, his name was Orlein. Once I entered the realms and bah! I have no power, and Zerthan is around, with some Takhisis priest whose name I now fail to recall.

I considered my chances. What could I do against a shrouded outer Takhisis guard, with Zerthan's Honor Face cleaving at my arse, and Zerthan himself bashing, and the priest smashing? Not much. So, I were going there to die very likely.

I did not though, for I always were a resistance fanatic, and had somewhat around 40% resistance to holy. Along with sanctuary, harden skin and protection evil it allowed me to stand for several rounds, given the good defense standoff skill provides.

After few futile reraid attempts I left off to wander somewhere waiting for better times.

And whatever high my defenses were, I got something like this:

Zerthan's divine power wounds you.
Zerthan's divine power mauls you.
Zerthan's magnificient axe named 'Honor's Face' glows fierce red.
Zerthan yells, 'With this blow I'll render your life!'
Zerthan's divine power === OBLITERATES === you!
You keep Zerthan at bay with your weapon.

// Wow, wow, wow! Let's get the Abyss out of here!!

[zondra]

Flair shouldn't work with render life.maybeWHEN solace comes back
We can team up in knights if you aren't high lord again cleaving my ass



Come on open this sh!t up!!!!!!!!!!!

they killed not only my beloved necros, but changed this most beautifull skill from 'yell' to 'say' yes it helped a little bit, when you dont want someone hear you're fighting, but it's roleplaying part was much more important.. in my opinion
