Ilyarin has beaten me several times, or gone to a draw with me tumbling all over creation or us just beating on each other over and over.

This time I tried a few new kata's and tied in the insta-kill.

Why are you using basic katas at 5mo? From what I can see, that didn't even do anything but damage+wounds.

My system (ethelon's) at times pauses and then spams me with a ton of info at once, so I was probably unaware, add in the fac that Ilyarin attacks crazy F-ing fast and that's normally two three line descriptions of each swing minus any parry messages I get, that's a pain in the ass.

But I am developing more 5 momentum Kata's not aimed towards insta-kill.

Wow, that was like watching a train wreck...I just couldn't stop reading.

I've never seen so many whiffs against stance a parry in one log before.

Actually, there are a lot of things in that long I've never seen before. I'm not even sure what to suggest.

edit: It seems like a lot of your katas weren't do anything at all. You were trying to use a venom you didn't have. Were you using that psymet skill that drains a tiny amount of health? There are way better things to use. Did you have deflect up? Your wounds were pretty obscene and you just kind of sat there and took it. If Ilyarin could capitalize on so many wounds, you would have been screwed.

Yup, Ilyarin is an Ascendant, and I'm not even 80th, so it's hard to stop him, I'm trans in almost everything but that doesn't mean dick.

I don't understand where the "person is good he's lv 100+" logic comes from.

Type status on a demigod or ascendant versus a level 78 human, there you have it.

demigod or ascendant doesn't make you a good combatant.

"Guns don't kill people, but they sure help!"- Hertz from 'Shoot 'em Up.

The stats are wicked though, balance, writhing all that crap.

Looking at that long I have one thing to say...

HAXXORS

writhe times are all the same, balance times are only affected by race. Not Demigod

Where do you get your information, Asmoth?

Look, stats matter, and according to Help DEMIGOD and HELP TITAN (Which I think are the same file)

You get boosted stats.

So with strength, you hit harder as a warrior, with dexterity you hit harder as a monk etc etc.

Now I don't know HOW much it goes up, but the stats do increase so you are STRONGER, not to mention that people like Ilyarin end up with 11k health against nearly 4k health, there is a gigantic difference.

Here's a few other things.


Uhh, what? This may be a bug - you had a 'must regain balance' message for one arm, but not the other, and yet you could still attempt a form?

You only ever used severspine for the kill mod. You never used mangles, nor double hemi. You were using forms that, as far as I could tell, did nothing but a measly amount of damage. You never shattered ankles with bomolah'sho. You never tried to stack regen cures. You, to be blunt, deserved to lose.

Esano, he was fighting a demigod!

(Psst, give me feedback too!)

So he's demigod, you're a Monk, it balances out.

Stop whiffing against stance/parry so much.

Thanks!
