#2566, "Why was this not a blow-out?"


          

I look at this as evidence that Demons are not hitting
nearly enough. I'm not sure if this is an issue with
Thac0 or str + dex, or what.. I must be crazy.. but this
should of been a complete blowout.



<24 Human Pal> (PK) Beltantis the Knight of Renown
<27 Human Con> (PK) Barraka the Adept of Geomancy

I have 3 levels on him, and my demon has even more.

A few lucky blows would kill it.
A monstrous mors-gravis demon is larger than you.
It grins evilly with you.


I am using a lot of +hp gear.

You are using:
<worn on finger> an etched jade ring
<worn on finger> an etched jade ring
<worn around neck> a sandy-brown desert cloak
<worn around neck> (Glowing) an iridescent stone amulet
<worn on body> darkened platemail
<worn on head> a captain's hat
<worn on face> a crimson-eyed silver mask
<worn on legs> plate leggings decorated with red enamel
<worn on feet> a pair of gray leather boots
<worn on arms> a pair of armguards from the snow worm
<worn as shield> an orcish shield
<worn about body> a long coat of velvet midnight
<worn about waist> a wide bronze belt
<worn around wrist> a bracer of gray leather
<worn around wrist> a bracer of gray leather
<wielded> (Glowing) the Dagger of Death

<77%hp 44%m 35%mv 11998tnl> cast 'magic missile' beltantis
A sullen grave


A tombstone with 'Baron' etched into the granite.
Beltantis is resting here.

<77%hp 44%m 33%mv 11998tnl> Beltantis yells 'Die, Barraka, you sorcerous dog!'

You have been KILLED!!

You have died, but the Carrion Fields are not finished with you yet!
Your soul is returned to the realms in the form of a ghost.
You will return to your corporeal state in a short while.
Be careful, for even a ghost should fear some dangers!



If the only point of evil conjurers in this day and age is
to nightgaunt, stop reading here.

If evil conjureres are meant to compete in PK fights soon
after they get demons.. then something is wrong.

I honestly can't believe anyone is pkilling with these midrank.
I don't understand why evil servitors are such pieces of crap
that people (STILL) laugh at. I have ####ing SEEN angels hit
harder! People are scared of angels. How many players have to
naysay evil conjies before something substantial is done to
bring this class on par with the good side?
