It hit me today, that as a researcher, I'm a laserbeam shooting gunslinger.

Only today?

It's one of the things I find hilarious about the institute. WEAPONIZE EVERYTHING
WITH LASERS

Well, it's only recently I've come to be using the scalpel instead of the blaster, which isn't very lasery.

It's a laser scalpel. PROBLEM SOLVED.

I demand further explanation incase I need to switch cities immediately.

Jack:

Yeah - you're probl'y getting targeted because you're a mage and can meld.

...that doesn't mean I'm good at combat. >_>

God, no. Who said that? But you remain a high-priority target.

Thanks for the vote of confidence and the morale-boosting comment.

It is, sadly, the life of the mage. You could have no hands and be playing Lusternia as Stumpy McWristlog, but if you're a mage you'll still get taken out. Whether you personally are good at combat or not is irrelevant (though the better you are the more targetty you look.)

Phoebus:

(though the better you are the more targetty you look.)

That is a lie.

No, it's pretty true. If you have a demesner who is sure to make good use of their demesne, they are more of a priority target. If not, you just let one or two people take them down and have the rest target the threats.

Depending on who else is there, if you've got a high priority target who can't fight his way out of a wet paper bag, I'd think it would make sense to knock him off quick.

Apparently I target differently than the rest of the world in group combat.

Especially if you have a demesne that splits (Druids or Aquamancers), you can usually afford to just dissolve and have enemied the really weak people and they will be moved away and killed by your demesne. Passives generally wipe out the littles.

Veradin Munsia D'cente` says, "I do hope he isn't speaking of me, he should know that's not allowed."

Since when does snubbing someone disqualifies them from ever talking about you? Should know better than throw around threats like that...

You should know better than to make posts like that (even if your point is valid).

Regardless of it being allowed or not, it's definitely bad form to talk about someone you've snubbed.

No, Enyalida - I do not have Munsia snubbed. She has me snubbed, while your post implies that I've snubbed her, and am talking about her. Munsia implied that I'm not allowed to talk about her because she has me snubbed, which is not the case!
