The Valley of Blissful Rapture.
A rhythmic thrumming saturates the area, drawing attention to a war shrine of
Terentia nearby. This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. At
the base of the valley, the canopies of the forest climb high overhead,
sheltering all who walk beneath it. A swift brook snakes through the valley
floor, its banks blooming with vibrant wildflowers. The valley exudes an amazing
feeling of comfort, the air within full of cool moisture. All along its floor,
many varieties of soft lichens grow, squishing under foot. Huge leaves grow on
the numerous bushes throughout the area, pools of dew collecting on each of
them. The rainforest valley continues deeper to the northeast and to the
northwest, spidery vines hanging from the canopy above in either direction.
There are 3 divine devas here. A beatific cherub flitters in the air, giggling
with delight. Spreading its majestic golden wings, a great eagle searches the
ground with piercing eyes. Hexe Tuek, Heir of Ellindel is here. He wields an
athame dagger in his left hand and a painted centaur shield in his right.
You see exits leading northeast, south, and northwest.

A prickly stinging overcomes your body, fading away into numbness.

Ixion swings a exquisitely crafted draconic broadsword at you. Ixion cuts off
your right ear, and blood fills your ear canal, making you somewhat dizzy.
The blade shears through your body before coming clean through the other side
with a strangely quiet swish, momentarily surprising you with its force, before
you feel distinctly unwell and collapse to the ground.
You have been slain by Ixion.

I know how you feel.

EDIT: Doesn't look like you tried to heal the scalp. Also, flying is your friend! Unless of course Tuek was against you and then Sylph would make things rather unpleasant.

Don't fight warriors.
Duh.
Or swipe his swords before hand and giggle. Even though they're probably runed.

Eat sparkleberry, fling starleaper. I'm pretty sure that would've gotten you out.

No starleaper, paralysis stops flying, no sparkleberry because I'm poor.

Rofflecopter.

Spam Hermit? You did come out of paralysis before he hit you so if you spammed it enough you might have gotten away.

Yes, we know prenerf damage weapons are silly. Move along.

Get Ixion's overpowered weapons nerfed.

Also, numen if you have it.

Also also, trill suck.

Also also also, I think it says something that I could tell who posted this topic just by looking at the title.

Must.. be.. fixed!


But yeah - Ixion's damage is insane. My advice? Web/aeon. Over and over again.

They nerfed sylph, I think twice now, so that it only works if you're on the same elevation. I -suspect- (I'll test in a bit) that they also nerfed the timer it was on, making it useless, but it was kind of ridiculous working constantly. Anyways, if you fly you're still safe from it. Just have to watch out for geyser.

I've noticed that it works like this, but when was it nerfed exactly and why? It's not ridiculous working constantly... the Occultist one worked constantly didn't it?

It's pretty bloody ridiculous working constantly, especially in the air. It was changed because having the sylph knock people down from ANY elevation constantly, even if it was on the ground, was just too much.

Speaking of that, CROW PERCH is still bugged against sylph, which irks me!

To be able to survive damage warriors, you'll probably need splendour robes, trans combat and trans resilience.

Working constantly at all elevations was overpowered. Working on a timer like the rest of the fae, at all elevations, isn't. You can still fly, recover balance, and move before it ticks, if you time it right.
