Trick Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Yewtrunk cleaning up! Link to comment
Ambroas Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Ok questions: why didn't the invoker try to dispel? Why stick to one damage spell that wasn't doing well, isn't ice storm the best? Link to comment
Pali Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 AFAIK, ice storm is the best aff spell at cutting through high saves, but it doesn't have the highest possible dps out of the invoker arsenal - against a high ac build, call lightning has a higher (and still fairly reliable against saves) dps than anything else in my experience. That said, yes, the invoker misplayed this one. Honestly, I think the biggest mistake was walking in and reciting a scroll rather than just attacking at the cabal guard - it gave Yewtrunk warning and let him flee to fight somewhere better. Next time just walk in and hellstream - one of those hitting without warning will often startle an opponent into running before they can hit back. Link to comment
Anonymous Posted August 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I had some net issues, and was recently very heavily looted after being killed by a pair of people. I spammed spells, which in all our other fights has caused the log to look quite the reverse to this. I should have simply logged off when my net began sporadically lagging, and I paid for it in this log. Since this occured there was a rematch which went in my favor, I do not have the log, but perhaps Yewtrunk can post it? Erulisse Anonymous poster hash: 7faaf...ae5 Link to comment

Anonymous Posted August 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 You where at scratches after hitting my firestorm. It led me to believe belderon, who hits like a meteor, could not have been actually fighting you, especially since he wasn't chasing eithet. And those call lightnings where obliterates+lacerates. So 5 is just about 800 hp give or take. Add in the four times you ran into a firestorm and we are right about your hp? Anonymous poster hash: 7faaf...ae5 Link to comment

Yewtrunk attacked the Altar for his standard and I hit him once or twice before he got it and took off. The hits were a devastate then an injure, I believe. I have it logged, if you want me to post it. I also told you before you even attacked the altar that Erulisse was going to be the one fighting you and you replied that she won't fight you.

Anonymous Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Simple math. If I'm fighting you. THE LEADER OF A CABAL. I dirt kick you and we start fighting, while I obtain my standard that should negate your minions from attacking. Especially since we've been fighting for almost an hour non-stop. You run the entire strategy as a leader, unless things have changed in my absence. Now, if you weren't even there, and you wanted one of your soldiers to defend, then back away and don't be there. You asked if I dont mind if I fought her, and I said 'she probably won't fight me'.. because I assumed (which was wrong) that her staff wasn't even charged since she died our last encounter and I've been logging some crazy hours so didn't see her at all. Now, If I was you, I would have been like 'It's Erulisse's time now, enjoy' and that is all that had to be said. I wouldn't have even worried about you. Think from my point, am I really concerned with Erulisse? No, I'm concerned with you x 10000. Erulisse is an invoker and if I just pay attention she will get eaten. Invokers strength is taking advantage of people not being ready and not paying attention. Their damage output is nuts especially if it's call lightning. So you could imagine my surprise, when we engage, then I flee with my standard only to meet her, and she kills me because I'm spamming west.west.west.west.west.west... When I was Leader of Savant, I controlled the entire battlefront as the 'Leader'. If an accident happened, that was my fault not my soldiers fault. Now, if things have changed, and a Leader is not accountable for warfare on the battlefield, then I apologize and pull back my statements.

Anonymous Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Leaders are commander's in chief. It has always been my experience when online with Belderon he wants me to get into the fray. So much so I just assume that is the case. I even alerted HIM over cabal chat I had the firestorm trap set for you. He alerted you that you would be fighting me. I do not see where anything went wrong besides you attacking him. He never engaged, he never chased. Anonymous poster hash: 7faaf...ae5 Link to comment
Anonymous Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Your not reading things right. He never said "I am fighting you". He said "how about giving her a try?". I gave my response, that doesn't mean we are engaged. I assaulted him, and fought him, then the guard. Just because I recited a scroll when I fled, doesn't mean I was in perfect health and not already fighting someone. Anyways, I don't want to beat this to a dead horse. What I am saying is, your much classier as a player, then to count that as an actual victory. You've had me close to death a few times, if you finished those then by all means, you get the credit for a great god dam job. But, that last encounter wasn't a victory. That is someone trying to take advantage of a situation because 1 v 1 you need some serious invoker gods on your side to win. Now, let's not get mistaken. I think you are a great invoker, one of the best I've encountered, so I'm not trying to take away from your shine by no means. I love fighting you, keeps me on my toes. I'm just talking about how this scenario played out, it could have played out a lot classier. Anonymous poster hash: 4b447...39a Link to comment

Yewtrunk Anonymous poster hash: 4b447...39a To be honest if an invoker isn't giving you a hard time as a druid their doing something wrong. They're output should chew through yours. If the invoker wants to PM me I can give you some tips and hints. Think about the druids spells and shields. Focus on flame arrows and ice storm and play more of an attrition game. Force the druid to make a change in the way they are fighting and mix it up. If he comes at you non transformed make him eat those hellstreams and destroy his armor. Ice shield = ice storm all day and fire shield = flame arrow fodder (you can cast two of those a round - with some fleeing and sleeping you will wear him down faster then he can). I mean all of the above is very obvious but I don't see any tactic other then the 'big red button' that is call lightning. Link to comment

If a druid is removing themselves to heal you should heal yourself? Use your nymph-hearts - buy the herbs from the shire - whatever.

A druid has to do ALOT of preparation to be able to outlast someone, but if your willing to put in the work, it's worth it. Anonymous poster hash: 4b447...39a Link to comment
Anonymous Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Druids got some changes. Yewtrunk routinely hits me for 3 to 5 devastates a round and reliably pulls lacerates and mutilates. While taking mains from hellstream, and dismember from ice storm. Their buffs in the casting category ensures I have to use a mana shield instead of an elemental one. He also is only moderately equipped. Fighting him is a serious resource strain and as this log proves I canthink really just stand up and see who wins. The druid buff made them extremely strong. I'm comfortable with the class, I don't know druids but I'm getting hit harder than if I fought a ranger or warrior without a doubt Anonymous poster hash: 7faaf...ae5 Link to comment
Aulian Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Plus the invoker is only getting Lacerates from that spell.. Thats just embarrassing when you consider whats available to them. Link to comment

Druids have always had healing potions. If a druid is removing themselves to heal you should heal yourself? Use your nymph-hearts - buy the herbs from the shire - whatever. You're a big badass f0xx - you telling me you can't kill a druid with an invoker? Shit give me an invoker and I'll do it... I've never even played an invoker before.... I haven't had a problem with invokers unless I'm just dumb. Typically your able to cancel out the Call Lightning, and big up your afflictive. Then they are not really hurting you as much. Now, if you don't have good aff protections, and they are eating you alive with call lightning, then ya, pretty much end game if your not paying attention. Yewtrunk.

f0xx Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 You can kill anything with anything. My comment was aimed at your advice to attrition the druid. You will simply not be able to attrition even a moderately prepared druid. Besides that's not how invokers work. They use burst tactics. Not attrition Link to comment

The changes are not as remarkable as you think. Druids have always had the ability to use haste - this is why he is hitting you so much. You're also an invoker with just PARRY - his hit dam is over 45 each. He's also transformed which gives him some bonus in striking you. It was never just going to be a walk in the park to be honest. He can't have both the hit dam and the save's across the board. Druids have limited mana although they can heal it. Try land a dispel now and then. If you drop 3 of his main spells he's looking at 400+ mana to get them back up. Link to comment

Not attrition By attrition I'm talking about the age old art of blowing shit up with hellstream and ice storm until someone can't defend against you anymore. I know its happened to me over a range of characters when I've faced invokers who were prepared to play the 'long game' rather then spamming 1 spell for a single encounter. Link to comment
f0xx Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Well, there's burnproofing and then there's the thing that he is a werebeast aka no wares. Link to comment
Anonymous Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 @Aulian You are incorrect. He is able to hit me for 3-6 devastates a round, while taking unsanced obliterates from hellstream, and keeping his armor low enough to take lacerates from call lightning. Meanwhile he is routinely doing Lacerates through sanc. So this druid is quite easily able to do these things. The weirdest thing is I didnt think a druid got enhanced damager, but he is hitting me for such high, high damage. Anonymous poster hash: 7faaf...ae5 Link to comment
Kyzarius Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Well his resistance to you inparticular can be explained in some part by watcher skills. Link to comment
