Underpowered Bragging

[Ambroas]

So we've all rolled power combos in an attempt to be strong, but how many of us have gone with nerfed combos for the challenge?  So here you go, list your underpowered combo that you've been successful with.  I'm also curious so also list the most underpowered combo you think you could have a good kill/death ratio with.

[Killfiend]

I'm too bad to do well with underpowered combos. With those shiny new boots, I bet a skilled player could do well with a warmaster gnome shield warrior. Maybe I should give it a go..

[Zoichan]

I had an elf ranger that did fairly well against everything other than fire giant warriors and zerks. I'm not sure I would consider it 'underpowered,' but compared to the output of an ogre ranger it's definitely not the strongest of combos.

[Ulmusdorn]

All combos are powerful.

At least is you're: H&R , Anume or Despiser.

[H&R]

Wouldn't say underpowered combos, but some that you don't see every day:

Human Invoker - Was really struggling with this until I found the right EQ and became higher ranked in Adjudicator. Then I was suddenly a powerhouse.

Drow and elf thief - Everyone played a slith or undead thief, but you have autosneak and high dex as a drow/elf which can be an advantage. I had 600 something hp on my drow thief though. He condied, but he also had a positive PK record.

Drow dk - Hard to get kills with in the beginning, but when you have a good malform the tide turns.

Demon dk - Just kidding

 

I want to play a warrior some day who is not a giant. Not sure how well I would do though.

Dont lie H&R human invoker sucks, do you remember when we were tribunals I played storm crusader and you were the human invoker. We got our asses kicked all the time. Of course we fought almost everytime 2 vs 5-6 but hey we still died a lot

Oh I remember that ranger. I played the fg zerk

[Anume]

Nah I suck with mages.

As to non-giant warriors, I did ok with a slith and really well with a dwarf (Justice L though I was a noob then).

Just then?

And let you having to deal with Lejarak while being Elder? Nah, you know I love you.

[Erelei]

Human invoker. Drow and gnome warrior. Halfling warrior. Human battlemage. 

 

And something that has been coming up as under powered lately: Minotaur berserker and Minotaur warrior.

Moderate Half-Elf Ninja

I had a gnome warrior in Tribunal, sucked but fun. And an elf ranger in Knight, sucked and wasn't much fun.

Yes please, no more of those. Might get moderates nerfed again.

[Manual Labour]

You can imagine how bad I wanna try a new ninja but I will let the dust settle first

[Erelei]

Moderates were never nerfed because of a ninja. They were nerfed because of thieves, which clearly, breaks the whole thief related play-style. You should only be able to take a couple items, and at that, if you steal and they kill you, those items are un-recoverable. They've literally lost them forever.

Thieves simply don't fit in the moderate tier.

FG shaman, Gnome warrior, Gnome thief. Halfling Warrior, Faerie thief, Human Invoker, Dwergar warrior, human berserker and perhaps gnome Ranger. These are pretty much the weak combos. Of these you are most likely to see Human Invokers at play due to the Lich applicants and the odd human berserker trying to get Berserk.

Human BMG are on my opinion decent BMG.

Nope.

We are talking about his trib ninja. After he played it in a time when Watcher was strong, and wooped them hard, cabal items were made to be counted as rares, since it seems people complained that a moderate ninja can be that strong.

I would add human druids (werebeast powers are pretty much what makes up the offense of druids), and certain varieties of werebeast rangers/berserkers, perhaps also halfling bards.

Nope again.

I never made cabal items count as rares in account to a moderate ninja.

Awhile back (before I immed) cabals items were made to count as rare for his THIEF IN NEXUS, not tribunal ninja. This however is no longer the case.

[Manual Labour]

Erelei is right, it was my moderate thief in nexus that got cabal items turned to counting as rare.

[f0xx]

My apologies you then, my dear @Erelei.

[kamikazi]

I did fairly well with a feral shield warrior, I think. (If it counts towards the underpowered combos that is)

[Trick]

I love feral warriors. I loved them even more when the boots of stomping let you wield a 2handed weapon in your main hand. #l33t #dariongotwrecked
