At 2 o'clock AM, Day of the Bull, 1st of the Month of the Old Forces
on the Theran calendar Rassel perished, never to return.

Race:	human
Class:	thief
Level:	51
Alignment:	Neutral
Ethos:	Chaotic
Cabal:	OUTLANDER, the Outlanders of Thar-Eris
Age:	51
Hours:	241

I would say that I enjoyed the conversations I had with Rassel. Thanks for that, and come on back to the tree!

I really enjoyed you and your roleplay.

You were so handicapped by the build though so I do understand you deleting.

Pure beasts, and it is really hard to have a meaningful presence in a pk mud if you can't kick some butt.

Ischer, I liked my role, too.

I was also pleasantly surprised at my ability to get weapons off of mobs. Gentlewalk + bindhands or sleeping disarm made gearing much easier than I expected.

I loved the few times I was able to truss someone up and call beasts on them. That was everything I had hoped.

There were several things that just did not work out as planned, though.

First, the points on the QHCF thief generator are off, so my build plan was screwed up.

Second, getting Devious Versatility is stupidly hard now that role and imm exp are two separate requirements rather than one combined requirement. This prevented me from addressing the build issues.

Third, I had thought binding would work better when I had mastered binding through drag, but that was just not the case. When everything hangs on your ability to knock your foes out, you are fubarred when you cannot do so. Add to that the need to land bind hands AND bind legs for your skillset to shine, and pk frustration will appear. I also do not like ganking, so playing something so squishy as a thief is difficult for me.

Great cabal, and thieves are viable in it, much to my surprise, but my build turned out to be sub-optimal.
