Isn't there an anorexia rune?

No.

Well, guess who feels stupid!



On a side note, how is it that aquamancers give anorexia, then?

I'm not sure of any "major problems" it will cause, but then I don't fight much here so hey. But previously afflictions were spread across so many different balances that it was impossible to surpass healing balance. Part of why I never bothered to get really into it. I think every class in the game will benefit from this affliction wise. Figures that this happens after I go from having trans runes to a fabled guild skills knight I need a list of what cures what in poisons already though.

They don't.

They could always shieldstun and then slash with it.

...they...don't? Maybe othala is bugged so it's not JUST other rune afflictions or something...

There's no Anorexia venom.

I don't think elemental runes got nerfed alot O.O

Heaven forbid they still be useful

That really isn't much of a change really

1/2 to 1/3 is a huge change. That is 33%, 330 of 1000, switched to elemental, rather than 500 .. 170 more damage you can cover in the normal way

Murphy does 1000 per swing towards me

It's not like any vast proportion of that 170 is actually blocked anyway, though. You're more or less assuming that the extra 15% is reduced, but it isn't, it's only reduced by maybe 5%, because there is no way I block more than a third of physical damage in general.

Looked more like 900 to me.

The damage bonus his runes give is just over half of what it was before. Doesn't mean he's going to start doing crap damage.

Then shiri, try fighting against a non-elemental knight with high damage weapons, you'll find I don't do -that- much more if you dont already have buff physical resistance.

The elemental runes are designed to cut down the tankiness of people with good physical resistance

He did 1000 in the arena, Kaervas.

Wait...wait...Muphy doesn't even do 1000 damage to me, and Laneth is a weakling! Heh. Carry on.

Murphy has put a lot of work into getting his damage up in a number of different areas. Elemental runes are only one part of it, so reducing them will temper him a bit, but it isn't going to suddenly make all that work he's put in go to nothing. Nor should it.
