Ok a little history, I figure to cure allhex in the middle of aeon and narsrim, you need to be able to evoke hod.

Winding forest trail.
A smattering of clouds fills the sky, lacing it with spiderwebs of grey. Heir of Ellindel, Narsrim D'cente`, Prefect of Crones is here, shrouded. He wields a shield bordered in moonstones in his left hand and an athame dagger in his right.
You can see no further.
3654h, 4129m, 4122e, 10p elrxk<>-
You feel your will manipulated by a pooka.
Hefting both weapons above your head, you begin swinging them in circles and bellow out, "Fear my Justice, for it is indeed brutal!!"
Your aura of weapons rebounding disappears.
Your action causes the nearly invisible magical shield around you to fade away.
Focusing on his head, you strike at Narsrim with a brutal war hammer, who smoothly steps away from the blow. Your hammer pulps through the air, missing completely.

You take a long drag off your pipe.
3654h, 4095m, 4122e, 2p exk<>-
Narsrim's aura of weapons rebounding disappears.
Narsrim spins about in a circle, grabs six sets of glyphs, and then throws them at you.
ALLHEX - USE TRUEHEAL?
evoke hod


He had hexaura up, and 4/5 of the time I can't focus to anorexia away, and he can just load up more afflictions and sleep, not to mention you can turn metawake off

Plus i was shielded. I mean, yeh if i get very VERY lucky i can kill someone in 3 combos providing they don't smoke rebounding, but really powerfeats being forceable has been rediculous forever.

Comments?

All you have to do is shield/sit. I'll enter, force, you stand/attack. Easy solution, simple to do.
Murphy2006-03-24 12:58:55
so why can you force celestines and paladins to trueheal?

Also pooka does this

You feel your will manipulated by a pooka.
Focusing on his right leg, you strike at Narsrim with a brutal war hammer, but your thrust hits his powerful aura and rebounds back into you. You are hit on the right thigh for a minor bruise.
REBOUNDING-YOU-WANKER


Notice his lack of rebounding being gone from ordering pooka
Narsrim2006-03-24 12:59:52
How can anyone who defends being able to kill someone in under 9 seconds in 3 combos complain about ANYTHING?
ferlas2006-03-24 13:03:25
People have already asked for a lot of things to be unforceable, Id personally be happy if things like focus, canablise and some power things were unforceable.

Murphy2006-03-24 13:03:40
because it's a very small chance i can do that, and yes i'm damn well complaining if we're getting balanced up soon then people need to know about things like this.

I'm expecting a nerf so you better get one too

Are you talking about using 8 power hits crushes or something on their head to soften it up then using 2 power on the legs for a knockdown and a swing down at the same time out of interest?
Laysus2006-03-24 13:23:02
That sort of thing doesn't usually work too well. For starters, you need the person being ordered to have balance, but there are some that are easier.

In fact, I remember posts on this sort of thing ages ago, and the general response was make sure you're not on 10p or don't stay on balance :/

Not that helpful, I know, but meh.
Murphy2006-03-24 13:32:06
that was at the start of the fight mind you.

And yeh narsrim is talking about 8 power on crushes, 2 power for knockdown and smitedown which is preventable if they smoke rebounding, or i miss bashbrain, or i miss the head, or i miss a crush, or i don't get knockdown

Lies. I have a log where you hit with knockdown, razed, and then brainbashed BEFORE the stun faded
Asarnil2006-03-24 13:37:16
I've got a log where you stripped off naked and danced at the Ravenwood tree praising Viravain. Doesn't mean much though.

It isn't like he will deny it. He knows he can raze before stun ends and brainbash.
Murphy2006-03-24 13:42:18
actually, most people i generally don't get balance back in time for a swing after a raze, on the off case that i do (IE i have the strength at nighttime for a longer stun, and my faster hammer hits first) I have a big chance to miss the affliction, or the head totally and hit the chest, or just flat out miss.
Narsrim2006-03-24 13:48:03
For the record, we have discovered that just forcing a normal swing in say head where I'm parrying 100% to setoff shield riposte with allhex is more effective than a pulp.

So ya, the power feat forcing is necessarily the best...
Murphy2006-03-24 13:54:59
riposte isn't 100%, and i don't care about the stun, I care about the power that i need to use.

Its as fun as fighting when you force trueheal on a celestine or paladin.

On another note however, I hope the envoy stff gets fixed soon i wan't my new class.

Technically the tatic narsrim has said to avoid his combo will kind of stop murphys 3 combo kill.

He starts the crushes lets say he does 1700 wounds to the head
You shield and smoke parry head
Two seconds
He crushes again heads at lets say 3500 wounds
Two more seconds
He knocks you down and raises to get rid of your shield
two more seconds you have rebounding he needs to raise again to even attack and he has no power.

Narsrim2006-03-24 14:07:28
So realistically, you can reduce the 3-kill combo into a 4-5 kill combo. Whoo.
Ekard2006-03-24 14:08:23
I have to agree. No power feats should be forceable.

To force trueheal your opponent dont need to be on balance or eq even. You will just wast his 10 power.

And remond me how much power poka cost??

None?

Something smells here. dry.gif
Murphy2006-03-24 14:09:18
ferlas is right, after i'm out of power you can stance legs and parry head 100, and i can't hit the bastard.

Maybe leave a room and cure head? Unless he have luck and hit with stun and you are small enough for stun to work too long.
