Since it seems you were having a bit of difficulty with fighting my character, I thought I'd assist in breaking down the entire combat we had over the two hours IRL. I'll post it here for others to chime in to provide you some assistance as well.

I believe your dirt kick came a little late here, as I had already started my onslaught so I managed to get a pinwheel in presumably before your dirt lag wore off. Not the end of the world, you do have a rather large HP pool as an ogre. It's great you used dirt. You've also got 3 pets. One of which has a massive HP pool as well. Try rescuing while I am blind. Sometimes those auto assist rounds after a rescue turn into double rounds. It'll lag you a little, but at least you won't be taking damage forcing me to flee or wait out dirt. But definitely stopping my onslaught momentum.

Suddenly your head slams full force against a hard and unyielding surface.

You go to sleep.

Whilst I slept, you got the standard back. This forced me look at two options, switch stance to return your arrows, or poison myself. I often try to adapt to my foes tactics, so if I see you're using sleeping arrows, I will 100% change it up. So I suppose the next engagement was to be expected.

Spamming call void is a bit risky, my saves are sort of high. I have dropped them recently by about -10 mental within the last two weeks. But before then, Cervall managed to get a number of dispels off on me from Call Void. Not always, but I believe luck is a massive factor. Why not try Thunderstorm? Insect Swarm? Play the battle out a little longer. No where at any point were you in great danger of death. I cannot blind you. I cannot lag you. I cannot prevent you from going hidden unless you let me get onslaught off four times, and even then the blood loss only lasts 2-3 hours.

=================================================

These are 100% of the logs we fought over two solid hours. There was two or three occasions where you attempted to take the standard with no pets or sanctuary. They didn't feel like serious engagements worth analysing. In any cabal warfare fight, you ought to be using sanc no matter what. Not to mention in those fights, you were not even targeting me. It was just me wailing on you whilst you attempted to defeat the altar.

And since you decided to bring it to the forum and misrepresent me by indicating I made a be litting comment because I was "destroying" you, and wasn't acknowledging you as the underdog. I'll leave it here. I don't believe it was  out of character.

Chunk tells you 'IiMmM goNNaa sSzit obnNn thHe easSztern roahd giIviinNng lEahhdersHhip, wHhEn you arriiveh thHEhre iim gonnNaa tAkE yoUhr ZSstanndarD.. iiff ii cjant TackEh yoUhr stannndaorD iiLl go Bahhzjk to thhE EAhszsternNn roaD annnd rEpeahht thhEh prosjeZSsZSs uhHnt'

You tell someone 'Interested tactic. My thanks for the least exciting engagements I've had in... my entire military career, and I've had many.'

Was meant to be 'interesting tactic' but it was 3am, and I was ready to bail. Disappointed that we didn't get to fight a little more. I wanted to see more effort from your side.

Ivesianna's whole schmick is that she's a military women who has worked her way up the ranks within the army (Knight) and she's a respected general. Anyone that has RP'd with her knows that I constantly incorporate Knight Personal coming up to her with battle reports, scout reports, etc to give you the impression you are dealing with someone very high ranking and has a lot on her plate.

At the end of the day, you've got little to lose. I don't loot anyone often ever. Unless there's a piece of armour I need that is better than what I have. Players of Cervall, Kotrag, Veri and Donovan when they've beaten me have left almost all of my things, and I pay respects back. I'd rather have you dressed, so we can fight more and have a bit more fun/practice.

End.

My tips to Chunk:

1. Fire a test arrow. If its returned, take off your arrows and get your pets ready. Pets will kick ass if she is ready for arrows, she won't be in the right stance.

2. Dirt kick from the start if they aren't predicting it.

3. Insectswarm is SO good against a blademaster as it destroys their mana regen which is good news for you.

4. If call void is doing a devastate, forget about it and use thunderstorm. I bet Ivesianna will take some nice damage from a t-storm.

5. Consider dual wielding whips and go for the big damage.

6. As an Ogre Ranger, she will NOT out-heal you. It will not happen. With insectswarm, or her poisoning herself for your sleep arrows, and you having ogre regen, camp, and herb, there is no way in hell she will keep up attrition wise. The longer the fight goes, the better it is for you.

"A Discordant Fiber" -> 

Object 'whip tail manticore' is type weapon, material iron.
Extra flags: evil magic bless noremove.
Weight is 7, value is 5, level is 50.
Weapon type is whip.
Damage is 8d6 (average 28).
Affects whip by 3.
Affects hitroll by 3.
Affects damroll by 3.
Rare item. (4 Str)
Imbensar Bandit King, Emerald.

I would drop the fiber for this.

You can pass door to leave pets behind. Recall the Mammoth, and go alone with mammoth. Because of guard.

[Trick]

I'd dual wield discordant fibers w/ embers if I could. That way if dirt is predicted I have another source to blind. Fiber and steel linked would be good too.

[Chief]

The Fibre is used normally used because of the double prog that provides unblockable damage and possibly landing an effect. Shes going to disarm you no matter what weapons you are using, it's only a matter of time.

I would talk to the other Rangers that have fought her also and get their tactics, Iukkut and Torbalan come to mind.

Thunderstorm will be your best friend if you catch her in the open.

Try being a race she has at least 120% anatomy in and then let's talk

2 cents. 

Herald > Nexus

Then Chunk could dispel magic.

But, on topic, nice log bet Chunk is better for the advice above.

[Anonymous]

I can guarantee that T-storms eat Ivesianna. Unsanced, she takes ANNHILIATES! OBLITERATES with sanc. Test fire arrows, like said above, but do not use sleepy arrows. Go for either poison/diease/flaming. Poison and disease will eat away at her lvls if successful and flaming will blind, giving you opportunity to open with murders. Insect swarm is your BEST friend here.

Anonymous poster hash: 84a32...252

[aaa]

I found the best use for sleepy arrows was to stop bash locks for smaller Rangers which isn't too applicable here. 

Otherwise there are other nicer arrows you can use as mentioned above. 

Insect swarm to force her to an outside water room then thunderstorm would be my game plan, I'd imagine she won't get caught outside when on her terms. 

[Anonymous]

Sorry I've been busy last couple days or I would have posted these logs myself and asked for advice

To Ivesianna I would like to say I was actually having a great time fighting you which is why I kept coming back, kept taking your standard, and kept engaging in our combats. That last combat where you said I fled too early doesn't make sense, just because I have a large HP pool doesn't mean I need to lay it all on the line when I'm clearly losing. When I fled I lost over 500 HP and looking at your log you lost 57 HP, this was my 3rd weapon switch in as many combats to see what I was gonna continue using against you. 

I told you I was gonna keep taking your standard for a few reasons, 1 to keep you away from my cabal, 2 keep you on defense, 3 to try and get you drained. Had more battles happened that night you would have seen thunderstorm and insect swarm, it just so happens I was testing call void to see if I could match your onslaught damage as well as to see if I could actually get a dispel off. I absolutely HATE cabal knockers, either go for the standard or go hunting. Knocking on my cabal just tells me where you are and approximately how much time I have to slay your cabal guard, I don't knock, if Chunk is ever at your door 'it's going down'  

I was actually quite insulted you called me a borring fight because I was having such a good time getting beat up while still effectively holding the eastern road and taking your standard 3-1. Even when I put it on the forum I didn't call YOU out, I said I've been called a borring opponent on more than one occasion. Im not a super PKer like Donovan, Virthux, Kotrag or any of the other top guys, I'm a very casual PKer who is able to get some decent gear and hold his own against most. I do look forward to more battles, sorry if I have to use rogue tactics but it's my only leg up until I can nail down how to fight you a little more effectively

Thanks for all the advice guys, I can't wait to get playing again later tonight or tomorrow

I don't know I always felt like an ogre dual wielding axes was more comfortable.  But since your evil I guess?  The fibers with emblems might be better.  Also try using the ice crystal with insect swarm you might be able to make them drop there weapon, then it's pretty much over. You should pay attention if he counters arrows remove them, if he switched stances wear your arrows again.

 

I'd give the blademaster tips but they seem to know what they are doing for the most part

 

Makes me wanna roll up a drow blm0_o

[Fool_Hardy]

No doubt. But first can we get a Drow available q-class?

Elves get avatar, crusader, psionicist, drows don't even get Bard.

Help Drider

And make it Kick A$$.

[Lloth]

Drow are so superior that they don't need a qrace to be viable.

[Dale]

Raemus was a drider... At first.

 

The bane of my existence is that we never got to see what he was becoming.  And to think I was going to write a book based on him

[Fool_Hardy]

Yeah I remember stuff.

Thus my post.
