We get better damage skills (radiance and torture), but they are often impractical.

Torture costs power, does like 1000 damage to a guy with inept resilience and crappy armor, and can't be used on mobs, even undead ones.
Radiance > torture, 'specially since most of the shit in Shallach/Catacombs are undead. Now if only Magnagorans were less territorial, eh?

Now this may seem like a crazy stupid question, but how the heck does a wiccan kill people? Nature curse them to death? Or toadcurse insta-frog? I don't know why, but I don't see much.

Ever tried to beat people to death with your broomstick?

Meh, I wouldn't last 2 seconds in the Catacombs anyway. Torture looks hard to use but it's not that bad, it does about 500 bleeding each hit as well.
Unknown2005-11-26 01:18:06
More like 400.

Trust me, I've been a Nihilist on two characters thus far. Only people I've killed with torture were inept combatants or faelings.

If Cosmicfire is doing the exact same damage as Blast, everything I have ever fought must be resistant to heat. Worthless, irritating, pointless waste of cosmic essence that spell. I'd be using Radiance exclusively if I had a place to actually hunt with the stuff, but there doesn't seem to be a very wide variety of undead out there and what there is appears to be protected by certain organizations. Even worse, I know of at least one creature that seemed to be undead on which Radiance didn't work (puppetmaster). ::mutters::

Then you aren't fighting good enough!
Trans nihilist, omen sensitive+shackles and torture...good 1.5k - 2k combo there
Torak2005-11-26 02:18:45
It also is unreliable Murphy. Omen can be dropped with focus spirit, they can shield, shackles and sensitivity have the same message, you don't know which hits and they can cure sensitivity by reflex right away if they want. If it isn't shackles the torture fails, if you web or fling a hanged you have little to no time to do any real damage. The combo although nice in theory isn't practical. They have too mnany counters. Tiphret, summer , ect. Tons of em.

Not fighting good enough?
I beat people with Wrack, ffs.
