A terrible lethargy suddenly overwhelms you, making you feel mentally
exhausted.

Please tell me that was just a bug, how am I supposed to fight against someone that can drain over 3000 of my willpower in one move that doesn't even cost powers?

WOw. They can use that skill at a fairly decent rate, too.

Heh, the same way we have to fight someone who can drain our health to zero in a few swings.
Olan2005-07-03 22:45:06
oh you mean by sipping health? Oh wait, you can't sip and heal willpower doh.gif

Yeah, exact same thing except for the unblockable part, where it takes only one move, and you can't heal willpower with anything, and takes no efforts to forge awesome weapons and stick runes on them. Wait, no, they're completely different. Thanks for playing, goodbye!

I didn't know it was possible to sip health when I was dead? I should pay attention, silly me.

doh.gif You net kids come up with some odd ways of making yourselves feel good.

This forum is worse than WoW General sometimes...and that's a bad thing.

My thread was aimed at wondering why Psychicvampirism is so rediculously powerful with virtually no cost at all to cast. We already know about how some people feel about damage knights, there are 50 or so threads on this already, you did not have a need to hijack this thread to bring it up again, did you?

Back on topic, 3k willpower is an absurd amount to drain with one single attack.
Unknown2005-07-03 23:25:58
I am not hijacking, if you and every other second person here would stop trying to turn things into your personal bitching matches you might see that.

My point was, and is, Estarra has stated that this skillset is designed to be obscenly offensive. Knights are the most obscenly offensive class in the game. Perhaps this skillset is meant to be the non-knight version of good offense?

I'm not going to bother arguing with you.

You're clearly delusional if you think that being able to drain people's willpower to 0 in 6-7 moves is acceptable.
Unknown2005-07-03 23:31:17
Obviously delusional, yes. Commit me to the infirmary now, m'lady!

...

Replace 'willpower' with 'health' and '6-7' with '2-3'.

To counter Knights: Parry, chance to miss, rebounding, shielding, sip health, eat sparkleberry, chant puella, heal.

To counter massive will power drain: Shield, die.

Good argument you got going on there.

It maybe be offensively powerful, but to drain someone 3k willpower in one move without even a power cost is just insane. All a Telepath has to do is use it 7 to 8 times and you're done for, no willpower = no clotting, no willpower draining abilities, no spells, no focus body.

You knights have it easy!

I wouldn't be able to attack at all.

Show me a knight who can kill me in 2-3 moves?
Unknown2005-07-03 23:39:59
Well kids, it's been grand, but I can't be bothered arguing this morning - besides, I'm not particularly good at fighting on several fronts - so I'm going to do some work for a few hours.

Toodles doodles.
