Meh. I'll probably realize soon that it's not as horrible as it seems. I'm just annoyed right now mellow.gif
Jairdan2005-09-11 22:36:19
However, at least now Dracnari are weak to them.. sorta silly for the Dracnari to be resistance to Aquamancers.. and would have been sort of odd when Pyromancers came around, dealing fire damage to merians and roasting them , but shrugging of the return fire tongue.gif

I'm going to cast healspring and then ally all my enemies. Lord knows I can't do anything else to them now.

At least we can wound now. huh.gif
Joli2005-09-11 22:51:55
I still deal the same amount of damage I used to.. twitch.gif

OMG, Vesar reincarnated and has only illusioned himself as Merian! ninja.gif

Oh, and if anyone thought I was kidding about healspring...

Pointing your staff at a brown hare, icy water erupts forth and pounds into his
body. a brown hare gasps from the shock of the cold water, the very breath
knocked out of them.
No longer able to stand the brutal force of the icy waters, a brown hare
struggles for one last breath before succumbing to death.
You have slain a brown hare.


That's the new message. It's cool but the staff isn't. glare.gif

I don't see why you are saying taking out the heat damage is wrong, when Pryomancers is the only mage guild that uses fire/heat

I always have. What, you can't? ohmy.gif
Ashteru2005-09-11 23:31:48
I can remember that I can't kill one type in one hit. chin.gif

To quote Acrune, maybe sweetfount will now start giving us afflictions... dry.gif

Nah Shamarah, its horrible. Anyone with stacked cold resistances and great armour - like, say, WARRIORS - are now going to be practically unkillable by aquamancers.

Heck, just as a random data point, Chenna was doing 600 blast hits and 600 staff hits to Terenas. Thats with him with drawdown, racial, a frost cloak at least? Does sipping fire or frost add into this mix?

I'm not sure what exactly was wrong with the last staff. Admin, could we have the damage on our staff tweaked again or something? This seems a bit weak, even for an Imperial Merian. I thought the whole point of being a Merian in combat is the low con/high int. I don't even want to /think/ of how much my human (14 base int) staff will be doing against a surged aslaran. sigh.
Vix2005-09-11 23:56:21
The damage type was probably tweaked because heat seems a little out of place with water whereas cold damage fits better.

Acrune was doing 1384 to me while surged, for reference.
Vesar2005-09-12 00:00:58
I never saw a problem with steam. Water + fire = steam. Water + cold = ice. They had it one way, and now switched to the other.

I'm just hoping that more upcoming changes will put this into perspective.
Vix2005-09-12 00:04:27
Well Pyromancers are obviously going to use heat. And um, merians are weak against heat so they'd be less likely to play with it?

I know I'm guilty of this, but out of what health? with which resistances, etc? this was against terenas with ~3900 health.
