Now take note that this is a -level 20- kephera, with 52/55 robes and barkskin, and slightly beefed up stats. Normal krokani hunting level is around 40 or so.

And yes, Q is my curse alias, A is health and Z is mana.

I've never been there. What amount of damage do they usually do?
Unknown2007-05-15 19:56:36
Normally enough so almost anyone under level 40 can't take them on solo.
Acrune2007-05-15 19:59:57
Thats quite vague. Somebody have actual numbers?
Unknown2007-05-15 20:03:52
When Soraka hunted them without greatrobes, about 800 or so damage a hit.
Acrune2007-05-15 20:07:32
So robes + level 3 resistance halves damage about. Not as OP as I was afraid, though still up there.

He probably is not trans resilience.
Acrune2007-05-15 20:20:01
Thats true. Wish Acrune was a girl so I could go Keph and play. Not sure I can live with the 10 int as a male keph.
Unknown2007-05-15 22:21:53
Yay horkvals. Everybody knows how well that works for Achaea!
Aison2007-05-15 22:42:15
Level 3 cutting and level 3 blunt advantages is... stupidly insane.

I think a downgrade needs to happen. Maybe level 2.
Hazar2007-05-16 02:35:50
It's not OP. Their stats still, well, suck. And you're always able to hunt well above your level when you play well to your racial resistances - in this case, blunt and cutting. Verseus, say, an urn, or an astrologer, you'll still have considerable trouble.

Krokani in moors hit Denust (with Mythical level stoneskin - not sure on the reduction - and greatrobes with 52/53 defense) for between 300 - 800 damage. Both of those are extremes, though; most of the hits about 475 - 550.

EDIT: Novice Resilience, so that's what? -5 damage? tongue.gif

Uh-no, female Keph stats are awesome.
For example, a female Keph telepath with forcefield and staff
Knowledge blessing pushes them up to 16 int
Throne + Nezach + Beauty blessing pushes them up to 16 ego. So you basically have 16 ego tankage with level 3 resistances to the most common attacks and a rather good staff.
Kepheras would love bulls, fesix and virgins. tongue.gif

You are kidding. I can solo them as level 21 mugwump with any magic based class.

This isn't Achaea.

It is nothing like Achaea.

The monk skills here will be nothing like the Achaean monk skills.

Et cetera ad nauseam.

Unknown2007-05-16 14:55:36
I'd just like to stay don't believe Soraka with those bashing posts. Saying that anyone under level 40 can't do them is :censor:. You can do them as soon as your character has 1000 health.
Unknown2007-05-16 20:15:18
I agree with Aesyra. I was hunting krokani right after I got kicked out of newton as a mugwump moondancer (without drawdown, and only average robes). I had to run every once in awhile and shield-whore a lot, and I went through a lot of health potions. Still, it was well worth it for the gold and exp from there at that level.
