Beldero(Adjudicator L) vs Yewtrunk(Warder T)

**Since Yewtrunk posted a log of me losing, I figured it’d be only fair!! :P This fight went 100% in my favor and ends very, very quickly. We've had much longer and much more intense fights that often spam several hours as its so hard to catch a druid when they want to get away. Druid gate + camouflage is a MAJOR pain in the ass. **

 

He didn’t come out RIGHT when I wanted him to so half of my four seasons went away, but I still had one refrained. He comes out and we go at it:

I thought you needed enhanced damage to pull off caps damage? Is that not accurate?

Anonymous poster hash: af59f...f77

Enhanced damage enhances your damage. If you have good enough weapon and and high enough damroll, you will hit caps either way.

This made me laugh so much. I was Watcher Leader 3 f'ing times and I -STILL- don't know what the leader skill is actually used for....

A lot of help files can use some love.

Some of the help files remind me of the descriptions we used to have of perks. It tells you absolutely nothing. They were bugged as hell and you couldn't tell because you didn't know what they were supposed to do. Good thing we moved away from that policy.

What I dont get is there is no way Yewtrunks hit dam is close to belderons. He is wearing such a crazy suit of eq, and my experience with bards taught me alot as far as weapons are concerned. Druids dont even get enhanced damage, he is using a fire weapon swinging into a fire shield, and their output is identical per hit. Insane.

Anonymous poster hash: d9f2e...60d

Yewtrunk has damage reduction all over the place, on top of warder skills. If he wasn't a werebeast, or a warder, Belderon would've landed much harder hits.

he has enough damage reduction to overcome the fire weapon fire shield damage, as well as continue reducing the damage while retaining such high, high output?

Usually if you want to have very high magical defense, you sacrifice offense, and vica versa. Yewtrunk not only can do both, but he can also add in damage reduction

as well.

 

I could understand that, but he is magic resistant, with damage reduction, while having greater offensive capability than any other melee class. It would be different 

if I hadn't seen him easily beat on one of the most powerful melee classes (crusader) a fully powered, decked L dwarf bard, and an invoker. I am not that good, but 

that is more about my speed. Im very slow chasing. This has nothing to do with the game in invoker versus druid at a gameplay mechanic level. He takes a maim

from a hellstream? I have read every log pertaining to invokers, as well as having traveled to almost every portion of the game with Erulisse, and have never seen 

a hellstream hit anything for a maim. I don't understand how such an obviously unbalanced synergy can be allowed to exist. Druids only get access to second attack, 

that means 4 if dual wielding correct? How is it possible he lands six attacks. Bear in mind this is not an opener, or autoassist round. Is it possible that him getting so 

many attacks is a bug in relation to an oversight in werebeast code? It has no counter being the obvious flaw. There isn't anything out there balancing him.

 

Anonymous poster hash: d9f2e...60d

I can't.. even..

Nevermind. Since when is a druid OP? My god people.

Someone plays a class well and suddenly people think something is wrong. God help us.

This is getting pretty hilarious. Take a look at him next time and see his affect list.

The only thing that worries me about druids is their sustain.

The amount of times I have had to duck and hightail out of there, if you only knew. The amount of times I have been left with 50hp, is getting a little to familiar. This is by far not an easy class to play. The amount of upkeep is very intense. One wrong move and your dead. A few things drop and your dead. If your not really prepared for a specific type of opponent your dead. If you transform against someone you shouldn't be, your dead.  I wish Druids were OP, then I wouldn't of had to log nearly 125 hours trying to figure out how to fight Belderon and Raynald. Which still, is hard as hell! You have to understand, when your going against Raynald and Belderon ALL THE TIME, you REALLY need to step you game up. If I wasn't determined and willing to put the time in to try to figure out some strategy, I would have just raged delete long long time ago. What your seeing is the result of having to fighting monsters all-day everyday.

I'm gonna roll a beast druid to put my thoughts to the test.

And I'm not saying op. Wherent blade masters changed in the not so distant past? Wasn't ranger beastmaster changed? Wasn't berserker, and necro changed? Wasn't crusader changed? Wasn't bard changed multiple times? Making small alterations change how a class functions. Read the druid description. In the wiki, everything about them suggests healer type class that's hard to kill. The class now is playing out as a pure burst melee class. It's like bards now, their main focus is melee, and their songs are just used as buffs. Very few songs, regardless of them having sooooo many, are actually used in combat.

This here many times over.

This is how you improve.

Not by whining.

Whining that malforms are hard to get. Whining that druids are OP.

Please do! I already did myself. I found they can be strong, but it requires special preparation and a lot of consumable hoarding (and that comes from someone who is used to consumable hoarding). I also don't like the treehugger RP. If you are fine with those then, and willing to improve, then you will meet success for sure.

It's clearly pointless to voice a concern honestly.  Nearly every change made recently was revoked,  or toned,  after a few weeks due to being too powerful.  You think it is out of the realm of possibility that this is the same? 

Anonymous poster hash: d9f2e...60d

Name three recent changes (as in, the last two months) that were revoked or toned. 

 

I didnt change druids in the matter that you're insinuating. The only changes in the past year was foliage, and tsunami. One isn't even related to PK, the other is so conditional it's impossible to call it OP. 

So again.  Name three.

I didn't read every comment so someone may have already said it, but don't use a magic damage shield vs a dwarf.  Use your other shield silly!
