Lyco had nekotai working very well, but it wasn't nigh unstoppable. Tahtetso becomes less of an issues with 2.75-4s per form.

Lolmodifiers, 1 affliction per hit thanks.

To be fair, Narsrim IS overpowered, and he DOES resort to using the cheapest tactics he can to win. Everyone knows this.

Everyone does not include all envoys and admins.

Tarkers and the Synlster, yo.

Just to clarify, Nekotai is not bad by any means. At the moment, it is also very capable of truelocking you (but a submitted report will fix that). That said, it isn't ridiculous with no-momentum 100 ka windpipe either.

I know what you mean (I think), and I agree with that statement. Do your damage, wounds, modifier affliction, and poison, if you must, but only one modifier affliction per punch/kick/jakari/whatever.

Also, raze shouldn't give you momentum unless you successfully raze shield/rebounding/speed!

Yeah, it seems wrong that it -does-.

You were also not stancing, nor were you using rebounding. This would have helped to limit his offensive capability by blocking his hits.


I specifically see me TRYING to stance in the log, so basically, what you're saying is your censor.gif'd if you dont eat sparkle, even though this attack took all of 30-35 seconds to complete. You're beating around the bush trying to help give me advice that I already know. What you need to address is that something is horribly wrong here, when I cant even defend myself from the get-go.

I dunno, Asmodea isn't terrible. It helps that shofangi just isn't as broken as the other specs, though it's not without its issue...yes, one issue.
Shaddus2008-12-13 02:14:51
Narsrim is like the Chuck Norris of monks.

You know... that's not a chin under Narsrim's beard. It's another fist.

Remember when everybody complained that bards were too good in PVP? suspicious.gif

Anyone can kill anyone else in 30-35 seconds, if you defend yourself poorly or not at all. That's not to say, of course, that Rushing and/or Hyperactive aren't still on the powerful side. (And, you "trying" to stance is you trying to use a stance you apparently don't yet know.)

Mostly just complained about Acrune. tongue.gif
Acrune2008-12-13 04:35:21
Yup. Bunch o' whiners.
Acrune2008-12-13 04:50:20
I'm sure that people are right when they say that monks need to be adjusted, but people seem to be making hasty assumptions based on a log of someone who doesn't stance, use sparkleberry, or cure right. Of course Narsrim, an experienced demigod combatant with artifacts, is going to wipe the floor with someone completely unprepared to fight.

Go ahead and nerf monks, doesn't matter to me, but be rational about what you're seeing. Uselessly weak classes are just as bad for a game as too strong classes.

I propose the introduction of a new class, the "lolmaster" archtype.

They will kill you by tickling you.

It will be a timed instakill that ticks afflictions the higher a level of it you cause, and deals damage at the same time to promote group combat. The more tickled you are, the more damage you take.

Tickle Levels can be decreased by leaving the area, or by biting your lip(causes 50 bleeding per bite)

I feel so shot down. And here I thought I was getting better crying.gif

Reminds me of the new version of the Tickle Me Elmo. The one that starts out laughing a bit, then laughs more, then starts rolling on the ground laughing, and you imagine him starting to vomit and choke...

If you really wanted to distract everyone away from the matter at hand just throw rocks and yell "Look! credits!" if not, keep focused on the matter at hand. I'm not the best combatant or do I claim to be, but I know the basics and one on one this is a bit rediculous, even I can get away from shuyin and his stun whoring. There was no escape from this.
Shiri2008-12-13 10:43:16
It would be much easier to tell -how- broken it was if you could cure at all though. For starters it helps tell you what magnitude of nerf is needed and to what aspect.
