2890h, 3960m, 10p ex-
A jet of steam blasts in from the in and envelops you, cooking your flesh.
774h, 3960m, 10p ex-
Shamarah points his staff at you and blasts rolls out from the end, cooking
your flesh.
With the stink of your own boiled flesh in your nose, you die in terrible
agony.
You have been slain by Shamarah.

...

Shamarah has no artifact sceptre, how am I supposed to fight that?

Knowledge and War blessings have to go.

Imbalances we can't do anything about. Except point them out and hope for the best.

Yeah, that is pretty insane if you were actually fully deffed.

Even if I wasn't fully deffed it would be insane, and in that case, I was fully deffed.

This is turning into achaea, bash macros, bash it again, win.

Except even stormhammers don't do 2200 damage every 3 seconds....from a bloody range.

It's not so much the blessings, it's just the fact that Aquamancer staffs do ALOT even without them.

Coupled with the fact that you are an Aslaran, ouch, level 2 fire weakness.

What they need to do, is 1) fix proofings, and 2) lower the amount of Magic resistance the Magic skill gives from 25% to 15%, and add a 15% fire/lightning/cold to it as well. Magic currently to my knowledge ONLY reduces the damage of Magic damage, not the elemental types.

Agreed with both points. Magic skillset resists too much, making moonburst and cosmicfire useless, and is futile against any other magical damage.

Also, not sure if it happened or not, but your frost vial probably got stripped, which is your only defenses against fire damage really

It didn't get stripped, cause it wasn't in a demesne.

Is it just me, or were both of those staff from Shamarah? The first one came from the in, while the second was in the same room. Shamarah also has the champion staff so he hurts.

Yes, both were me.

And yes, my attacks do hurt. But yes, something needs to be done to make them weaker. If they're doing that much damage, it's just ridiculous.

Now, if Thorgal were consistent with how he treats me... he'd do this:

UMMMM, SO WHY ARE YOU USING IT? HYPOCRITE. YOU CAN'T SAY IT'S TOO STRONG THEN USE IT ANYWAY!!!! STOP USING STAFFCAST!

Bah, you can't blame me for being annoyed when you consistantly inquisition me when I'm fighting other people, on my own.

All part of a new Celestian initiative named:

MAKE LICHES PRAY

I have to pray a LOT more than you.

Because I have more levels and skills. Our healing systems are just as good. Also, I'm probably more careful.

Well, you are a tanky bastid, where as I'm not...so the result is balanced.

Where does that leave Lichdom? Thought so!

To answer your question: Being stripped by Inquisition, which two guilds out of the 6 likely to be fighting you have. Which takes a hugely different amount of setup depending on who you ask.

For those who are interested, MLP involves us all sitting at pool running around in confusion, asking for teleport targets over CT, while our competent fighters go f**k it and go off without us and Shiro yells pointless orders from Astral which we all ignore. And Tuek and Narsrim are like, "Why the f**k are we still killing Gorgulu for them?"

Doesn't it make you proud?

Wow... so basically nothing has changed since I left Celest. Good to know.
