Here is a duel with Asmodea in faithorne. Me was owned blackeye.gif

I keep forgetting I have maelstrom and tripleflash already crying.gif

And deadly pattern causes stun? shocked.gif Didnt know that..
(now I gotsta to get it too..)

oh, ohh.. trying to out-minorsecond a bard champion is not a good idea..
(but - wish my own minorsecond was as good as hers though)

And why am I losing power when eat horehound again?

You remove 1 horehound, bringing the total in the Rift to 84.

You eat a horehound blossom.
Prudence rules your psyche once again.

I haven't read the log yet, but it looks like you cured recklessness, so that showed your true amount of power when you ate the horehound.
Nezha2008-02-05 05:43:08

Edit: maybe you should just have ran when you went down to under 1000

You tense your muscles with the sinuous grace of a predator, prepared to avoid any incoming blows.

You cease preparing to avoid the next attack.
You must regain balance first.

Whoopsies

Try captivating yourself next time, gives you abit of a headstart.

Why did you start off with a forwardflip would be my first question... you are a mugwump not a faeling with +3 balance recovery?

When you get down to 1000 health or so, weave a reflection or simply move a room and shield.

The whole fight you weren't keeping up much of an offense either, try transfixing more. When you got her song down that should of been the end of the fight if you would of dropped octave and perfectfifthed. Since she cured your egovice and manabarbs you were wasting time minorsixthing her.

Yeah, don't do this. Especially not against someone with acrobatics.

Forwardflip is pretty useless to begin with.

Bards... are wicked... that's all.

Looking back at the spar --

I is a fool, what was i thinking? *backhand*

Things like flare/blanknote instead of flare/flare? huh.gif

There doesnt seem to be a coherent strategy involved in what i did here.. *scratch*

As for the forwardflip -- It just entered my mind and i did it.. seemed like a good idea at the time tongue.gif

But, I find that being a bard involves being really efficient in your offence and power consumption.. there is no room for making moves that just wastes time..

for example:

You weave the light around Barendur into a complex glamour, which erupts in fascinating patterns that overwhelm his senses.

//-- Power Consumed ---\\\\

"The voices! The voices! Get them out of my head!!" Barendur moans, holding his head.
Stupidity

You have recovered equilibrium.

Huh? I fascinated and instead of doing some offense I stalled and did avoid, totally negating the time gained by the fascination.. -- I was trying to wait for power here, but if that was the case, i should just not have fascinated in the first place..

Things like this.. should be eliminated more and more..

If you are stalling don't throw out avoid.. you know the balance recovery on that skill? it's insanely long... just toss a reflection instead.. it's faster and does the same bloody thing.
