Anonymous

Recommended Posts

We both made some key mistakes here, either one of us could have died in those woods easily.

My rage drops very shortly after she flees and instead of chasing I decide to sleep a few ticks, because I know I can out heal her.

After healing up a bit I found her lagged at a temple and without sanctuary, I was able to land the kill and end the fight

This question (or similar) has been asked before, and been answered before, though most have been lost through time as they were usually parts of larger posts.  While the following was intended to create a Z/Cmud trigger, it'll still answer this just as well.

How do glads fly and why weren't you 'executing' more? I'd never dirt, slam, trip, cleave before execute was initiated. Good looking fight though :) 

As Kamikaze posted, the mitts.  Potions/scrolls/PC cast spells won't work, but objects such as the mitts and the wheel and the sandals apply the effect directly.

I was asking myself the same question upon reviewing the log. Not sure why I didn't use it more towards the end.

It's a tricky subject IMO.

Consumables vs EQ...

On the one hand EQ seems more powerful because affects cannot be dispelled, on the other hand it requires not only availability of said rares but also the use of slots which prevents equipping better items.

Consumables can be dispelled and wear off, but they are quite easy to farm and hoard and then it opens up EQ slots for better items. So there is more risk with consumables in a sense but also greater rewards and more powerful spikes of power.

Recently there has been a huge influx of new consumables and spell forged items. Gladiators do not benefit at all from this, in fact it makes them weaker because everyone else just got potentially more powerful.

I think Gladiators are FAR from OP right now but I feel they are in a good place. They have tremendous strengths coupled with huge weaknesses, to me that is good balance.

Would be cool (I think) to see added affects get dispelled until items are removed and re-equipped. Permanent spells are for mobs in my opinion, and create their own form of balance issues. Like the protective head wear, certain lockbox item, etc.

Edit: Should have said, be able to be dispelled.

That's pretty much how I think of it as well. Sandals with flight suck ass plain and simple, but you also save yourself from being tripped to death as a Giant race. You have a choice between choosing a consumable versus the other items. In some cases items with added affects to them tend to greatly outweigh any negative aspect of them. Gauntlets of rage have great saves for instance, and even with it harming you when used, the affects gained from that and the fact that they're just no remove and have a ton of saves to them doesn't really make it a bad item to wear. If it had 0 saves though and maybe +1 hit/dam and was noremove that would make it seem on par for items of old that were balanced one way or the other. The limited quantity of them definitely makes it difficult to come across them in some cases, but it seems to balance things off for most WMs at least.

Overall it was an amazing read and  I had wondered what happened when I saw Rhi without a PK flag. I think that last murder attempt may have been mainly for the sake of hoping it would be enough to finish you off, but the timing was horrible. It should've honestly been more of a instant murder if they felt comfortable or even a few consumables. There's some really good potions you can get that heal you. In the event the beads broke though I'm sure that could've put a damper on things entirely. Even if that were the case you should typically have at least two on you. One worn and the other in your inventory in that case. Try to spread it out over a day or so from creating another pair. Someone once told me to do it 12 ticks after the other, but in all honesty they last quite a while so unless you think they'll crumble before that fight, create a new set and still wear the old one. Set up a color trigger so you see it crumble that way you're onto it more if you haven't already. Also try to eat a bunch of healing pills, scrolls, or quaff a potion or three so it goes in your favor. There were several points that battle could have gone either way, which is why it was a great read.

He could be wearing some +HP gear as well, and Humans have a quest line in general that I have never really played beyond 30, so it's possible that he got it through some of those quests, other quests, and by using a single practice in skills he'd use frequently versus two. If I were to add in all trains and practices along with quest lines that give trains or +HP, it's entirely possible to do as a FG pretty easily, though it may be stretching for a Human sometimes. When he first started out he was wearing nothing but AC gear as an Inductee, and that has been what? Six months or more? He's had a lot of time to fine tune and balance out all those quests and any +HP items he found and still maintain a pretty good balance of hit/dam and even saves if need be.

Link to comment

I have a bit of HP gear, not very many saves (-25 vs spell and that's it), and my hit dam is not super impressive either (around 45 45). I get close to 70/70 with rage which seems to be enough.

@Dale If I recall my base hp is around 1280. I saved every practice and train possible and dumped it into hp. I didn't even practice a single cabal skill, got them all up from 2%.

If I were you, and this is just my opinion, I would dump that HP gear and up your hit/dam.

Also, Ashmaker and troll scourge ARE good, but it wouldn't be my first option. I'd definitely grab stormforger,  steelfeather, maybe mourblade or vorpal sword. Your damage isn't that great, but you have HIGH dex for a zerk which means you'll defend pretty well. You want to rely on that defense and let your forms cover your damage while you're doing lag/haymakers. But, that's just my opinion. 

Also, are you anger or fury? If you ARE anger, I'd see if you can spend some RP to change to fury if the IMMs will allow it. I think you'll see a TON more success.

Link to comment

I stopped using the Ashmaker against Rhi, I had just left it on in that fight from my previous fights with Skree.

I switched to my pit axe which has a higher avg damage and I noticed an immediate difference in output against Rhi, I also stopped spamming commands and the fights have turned heavily in my favor.

Troll scourge is almost always the best way to go from my tests as it does consistent good damage and lowers enemy AC significantly, though in situations where I want to dual wield I get good benefits from many other forms.

I really thought a LOT about which rage path to go and settled on anger. I feel that with a human at 21 str using a two handed weapon primarily is just not that great (I could be wrong).

In PvE I use a polearm almost exclusively but in PvP I do really well with a shield (especially against classes that can disarm noremove weapons).

Anger has a lot of nice perks, and there are some very good benefits to using a shield for me right now. If I was giant sized and neutral I would for sure have tried fury over anger. The 0 hour rage is a blessing and a curse but I have gotten used to it. It is also REALLY handy to be able to relax whenever I want, it has saved my life on MANY occasions.

The only HP gear I am wearing is incidental, I in no way went specifically for HP gear, it just happens the items I want also give HP. Thanks to +proficiency gear I have a lot of key abilities hovering around 110%

My intention in creation was to make an attrition zerk, no vulns and high dex like you said, lots of free damage from Gladiator kit while still being pretty defensive. I am almost at Ogre level regen too since I took healthy perk, bought the regen boost edge and have master questor.

I never rolled this character for "success". This char was rolled for the express purpose of forcing me to PK a ton and to not take death/loss too seriously. I am actually really pleasantly surprised at how not terrible I am, and can't even believe I was made leader to be honest. This char turned out to be a lot more than I ever imagined and I by the time Berston condies I will be ready to roll something more serious and powerful;)

Dude, you have to just accept that you are a lucky focker.  I've had a demon warrior that I 1 prac trained with and he ended up with 950 hp.  A FG DK with 900, several humans with only 800 at 50, yes I 1 practice everything and save all trains for hp.  1250 as a human is INSANE with hp+ gear, your base as a human was my base as a FG after using all my trains and 1 practicing.  

The fact that you can get that with a human proves how unbalances HP gains are from char to char.  Well proves it to me, itll be a few more weeks before you guys see it.

Link to comment

I think class plays a role as well as race. So a zerk will almost always end up with more HP than a warrior or DK (of the same race).

I am sure luck is a factor, but im not sure by how much to be honest, maybe 20 hp maybe 150 hp who knows...

There are a LOT of quests that give HP and/or pracs and trains. I do not recall what my real base HP was when I just hit 50, but I for sure have done more quests than you and that could probably account for an extra 100 hp easily.

Funny thing about class ranges.  That yours had so low, Dale, means you're getting the raw end of the deal.

The following are for zerks.
Base     Low   Avg  High
FG:      834   981  1128
Human:   667   814   961

1-Prac   Low   Avg  High
FG:     1014  1161  1308
Human:   837   984  1131
            
Min/Max  Low   Avg  High
FG:     1034  1181  1328
Human:   917  1064  1211

No perks and no quests other than shrines.  Add another 50 to each for a decent ballpark.
The middle one assumes you burn trains on maxing your stats.  The bottom doesn't.

I've posted my spreadsheet that has the base HP ranges on the Discord server.

Link to comment

I was told once to wear +con gear and +luck gear every time I gained a level. Did not see a difference.

I was told save all trains til 50 or my hp would be lower. Did not see a difference.

The rolls are just that. Random rolls not affected by +8con if it's maxed already. Luck gear probably does aid some but only staff would know.

At the end your FG should only have 150 more than a human with exactly the same rolls right? If he out rolls you by 2 every level then what? 50. And as he said 100hp in bonuses for quests. 

Kudos to the berserker for playing a non power combo and making said power combo look less attractive. Though, viri once said human berserker was the most powerful combo, and people laughed.
