Turned out retaking an enemy battlepoint can make for a good opportunity to kill.. or die.
They have to be online, first.
You have access to twice the skills we have ;P
Also, I'm all for some things that would seem 'unbalanced', on both sides, but make them hard to use things. I doubt very many riders have ever been able to accomplish the thoroughness of what Septienna accomplished in this log. And just like a few days ago, when I got my ass handed to me by Pounder and Co, I thought that was freakin awesome, but I guarantee you it'll be in the very far future the next time a group is organized enough to pull off something like that to a group as quasi-unorganized as we were.
It adds a bit of a spice to the game. PKs are nice when people end up using 85 healings and run from the Crimson Canyon to Grey Havens and back before eventually dying or huntbreaking, but they also get a little too extreme too. It's nice when you can pull off a bitch-smackin in a few rounds sometimes (obviously not all the time, but with the exact correct circumstances, it'd be fun.)
And besides, as FRs, if you're organized enough, you should probably end up winning more even-matched (in terms of numbers) battles than we will. Which I guess is the way it should be... we're more numbers, you're more skills.
But I have a blast either way. Fun log there, wish I would have been on.
Omg, I love you so much right now Adoni. *hugs and kisses... fkisses*
Weep a fucking river you wankers! That throwing was dead sexy... trigger to grab it and its rendered useless as aforementioned. Damn! Wish I could use triggers to stop other profs' specials... ER > FR, balance issues aside because the players are generally > whiny bitches that can't adapt.
The imbalance is more plentiful and most obvious when it's in favor of the ERs.
The only time anybody cares about imbalance is when it's in favor of the ERs.
When I read this log, I thought to myself 'Why didn't anybody just snatch her spear?' Probably none of you were expecting it, which is quite understandable. Now you know to expect it, and I imagine a rider will have to carry a few spears with them to battle. Some advice would be to research our professions. Figure out what you would do in a fight if you had the job, then counter it.
Yes, Pallasch, FOOTBALL is here!
The funny thing is that nobody even mentioned this until Septienna had to go and fire off her gaping maw.
It is very powerful but as some people here have suggested, there is a simple way to RENDer it useless and thus it's power is balanced by the ease in which it is countered.
unbalance or not, just play the stupid game......we got 2 kills they got none, even with the massive amounts of damage Septienna may have done. It still worked out for us, yes we got a bit lucky, but who cares, stop complaining about stupid stuff and play the game and have fun.
yeah yeah boohoo lots of damage, if I were paying attention I would have hit the flask and maybe 1 or 2 more would have died. I know everyone is concerened about balance, but I don't disillusion myself with the hope that saying anything about it will change anything, you just gotta figure out a way to play as it is and still come out on top.
And I sure as hell would like to have come out on top of Septienna. Rar!
Touchdown Texas!
I love football season.
Haha, yeah. ERs have never been nerfed... Right.
If you didnt think there was anything wrong with the insane amount of damage you managed to do in such a short period of time then you wouldnt have commented before anyone else said anything...
This is absolutely ridiculous, in 9 rounds septienna does all but about 15 hp of the damage to you from 222 to -4...thats a total of 211 hp damage in 9 rounds just using one persons special. We all know the ainur will never do anything to downgrade their precious ers though so i dont know why i bothered working it out. I sure as hell wish i hadnt suicided my rider alt now and had bothered to finish levelling him.
'Some guy' was an NPC. I was just wondering if players can also catch things and throw them back.
People such as low-levels who are unattackable are prone to catch things thrown that them that would otherwise start combat, because of their un-attackableness.
I was going to mention triggering to snatch the spear, but was beat to it. I can see a rider doing lots of damage weaponless.
Is there a chance of catching it and throwing it back? I used to throw torches at stuff years ago with a level 1, kill stuff quicker...then some guy caught the torch and threw it back and killed me.
Dude, that is F-ing awesome work man!
Headbutts take way more EP, so your warrior example is pretty fucking retarded.
In that case note to self, if you have free time don't go to the log page.
Let's not forget in a less spammy situation it's easy to steal the rider's weapon with a trigger. I got unique spear from Rogash once doing that.
I really don't think there was going to be any whining, the log was good. Nice timing from Barren there too.
Alright, tell you what. Go get a torch, and throw it at someone. And tell me how often can you throw it. You go busy for 2 rounds, and then you can throw again. That makes every third round. Now, think of a warrior fighting. He headbutts for say 25hp, then he fights and does damage for 3 rounds before he headbutts again on the 4th. You're telling me a maxed warrior can't land 29hp of melee damage during those 3 rounds of fighting, making the damage equal to a rider throwing twice in those 4 rounds? Pull your facts straight. The warrior will probably do a lot more than 29hp in three rounds.

OK, my bad. It was 71 HP of damage in two rounds (although almost three).
Read the log again before commenting next time. You can only do it every 3rd round. I can do 200hp damage as an archer in two rounds. But lets count out the uniques, so lets say 100hp damage in two rounds. Oh no?
I used to say that archers had the best EP/HP-loss conversion at a rapid pace, but looking at this log, I think riders are definitely better.
Add up how much damage Septienna does in just a few rounds. It's really somewhat absurd.
Honestly it MIGHT not be that bad except for the fact that you can do it every single round.
How much EP does it cost?
I would be very lucky to do 72 HP of damage in two rounds with headbutt. ... so lucky in fact that it would be impossible.
I wouldn't call it overpowered, just strong. Like every well-played special ability - headbutt, brawl, fury, etc.
Oh, so you know how overpowered it is, then?
Not really, I think it's a decent log, and I started commenting because I know people will whine about the pole-arm damage. I don't get upset over my friends dying when they don't care themselves - Nasira is a big girl.
It's funny, because Septienna never comments. Clearly, seeing her 'friend' Nasira die really hit a nerve.
Gosh, Pablo sure is desperate for an STD. :(
i do :(
Uh... okay. I guess I.. see the difference. Do you need recommendations for a shrink?
its not sex, its nut busting love inside of you and all over you!
So this is nice, if this comment section gets locked there won't be any whining!
You got a long way to go if you think you're gonna get someone to have sex with you to that movie :p
how about talladega nights: the legend of ricky bobby. followed us making sweet love during the credits. i'll bring the condoms.
Sure, what do you wanna see? 'Dr Phil: Mental Health - Coping with sexual delusions'?
yes i'm saying a date for a blow job, 20 dollars sucky sucky? :D
ok, i guess i'll buy you a dinner and movie for a hummer then :p
My hooker years are behind me! I retired a while ago. Easy livin'.
every hooker has a price, what was yours!
You can't afford me.
how much do you charge for a hand job again?
Pablo, you need professional help. Get it soon.
and i give in return ;)
ahahaha, septienna licks my balls.
*awaits the whining*
good read :)
I so wanted that ear :P
Really pretty incompetent on my part, but maybe a good read?
