So any chance we can stop people from timing demesne effects? It's really rediculous that the demesne can passively do over 1000 damage every 8 seconds, not to mention virtually unblockable.

Every 10 seconds, not 8.
Murphy2005-06-11 01:23:09
you want to complain?
Geb's staff did 2.3k to me.....2.3K I DONT EVEN DO THAT.
Even to a mugwump with a lvl 3 lightning penalty I don't do that for a combo, not to mention I can miss, hit parry be rebounded or they dodge by attack.
Yes, I have a lvl 3 fire penalty, I had a firecloak on and a frost defence up which reduces it somewhat. but 2.3k for an attack that can be done line of sight, in the room and while in a demesne is rediculous. That aqua staff has always been too good, change the message and make it 50% fire and 50% cold or something similair. No-one else gets a decent staff damage type why should aquamancers. Hell 5-7 guards beating on me don't do that sort of damage.
I'm all for having the magic skillset reduce against elemental damage in part.

Maybe cuz we're mostly merians, with 18 intelegence, and, more importantly, 10 con. We're as tanky as wet paper. My health didn't pass 3k until level 80. Thats why we should get a decent staff attack.
Yrael2005-06-11 03:13:29
Delicious paper.
Alger2005-06-11 05:57:34
10 con... with 2 con i tanked xenthos for a whole fight and malicia for about 9 swings!!! maggotpower
Icarus2005-06-11 06:19:53
Terenas has 10 con and he tanks people just fine.
As for mages, just dont fight them in their demesne. You are supposed to die if you do, as Hajamin warned.

He's a warrior, not a mage! Of course he's tankier.
And I think everyone completely trod on that argument of Hajamin's there already. Don't try to use it.

so you had +1 to int?
I commonly have +1 to str from firtuna but it means bugger all, a TF only givesd you 1 extra point of int.
If you had of said yeh I had a TF knoweldge and war blessing then maybe it would mean something.
Even if you staffed me for 2k its still excessive

Terenas has Surge and 16 int, as well as knight armor.

He has a level 3 scepter.
Truefavours increase skills, so his highmagic and aquamancy were above trans, both of which affect the damage done.
You are level 3 weak to the damage type.
We also have no proof of this figure but your claims.

19 int.
16 + 2 knowledge + 1 drawdown.
Manjanaia2005-06-11 18:41:03
I reckon Geb's staff would have been about 15-1700 if you disinclude those factors.
Geb2005-06-11 20:07:05
Yep, you are about right Manjanaia. Level 3 penalty to fire is a real B. Think about it, he is pretty much taking +45% more damage from my staff than a normal person. That is what I mean about telling the whole story. He comes on complaining about something, without taking into account all of the variables involved.
Eiru2005-06-11 20:20:07
Well Geb, to be honest, you do about 1.4k to 1.5k damage to me, with staff.
So does Shamarah.
And I can't launch a good offensive since you're usually a faeling, writhe like crazy, get your demesne to throw me around, stand a couple of rooms away and staffcast the hell out of me while I'm stunned/blackout/freezing.
Don't even let me get started on dreamweaving aquamancers.
I don't have this much trouble with either of the other two demesne-using guilds.

I do not have blackout Eiru. Also, you only get moved one room away by currents. Also, webbing is on equilibrium, so being a fealing does not speed up the use of web. So please get your facts straight first, before you act like you are trying to be totally honest.
*I can't speak to the damage part, because I would have to have someone there to check you to make sure you are taking that much. I do know that Terenas takes only 1.1k damage from me if he has the fire defense up, and he is a surged merian with a level 2 penalty to fire. At best I see about 1.6k on him, but that is after his elemental defenses are stripped and he is surged.

Eiru2005-06-12 07:13:48
Perhaps I do not notice when you switch to merian.
And so your demesne moves me one room away, and you go one room away, cool.
Maybe I mixed you up and Shamarah with the blackout, but I remember how much of a b*tch it was in an aquamancer's demesne.
I wasn't talking about your webbing, I was talking about your writhing.
Stop jumping the gun and assuming things too soon, Geb.

Don't be so insulting with this "get your facts straight first" stuff. You misread his post, or misunderstood it. He said WRITHING like crazy, not WEBBING like crazy.
