After my fifth buggy-type death, I kinda asked myself, is it worth it?

It wasn't.

Torak - No I will not get a full set of sleeks everytime you want to fight a villager. Cherist.

Korrock - You silly bastard. I love mino-speak.

Tlingit - Well well, heh.

Baerinika - You suck! I totally wanted you to get the 'Your ass-raping has forced Mjraljin into hiding'

Cyrn - You are the type of player that keeps me from playing.

Aunkdunell - Re: Cyrn

Thoughts:

Ranked to 49 in 15 hrs, I think? Double XP weekend baby!

My forms = teh suck. Sad thing is they weren't horrible on their own, just together.

Vulture - Garbage. Please look at this form. I thought it was #### until I started getting raped in the air. For the idiot hummingbird who posted on the log board, you're ####ing dead wrong. Vulture has less offense than the golden eagle. I know because Soraec ####ing raped me. I didn't flee once in about 45 or so tries from a hummingbird. About the only fight I won in the air I had ABS and they had nothing. Still couldn't kill anyone in the air, since I was slow as #### and couldn't block anyone from fleeing.

Grizzly - Meh. Supposedly it's awesome because of the forms dam redux, but I have to say with ABS I didn't take less damage than a dire wolf with ABS. Form fluctuated wildly. Sometimes I'd hit 2-3 DEMO's a round and I'd contemplate deletion. Sometimes I'd hit 4-5 OBLIT-DEVA and wonder if Zulg felt bad for me. All in all pretty middle of the pack offensive form.

Really kind of lost heart after Soraec pwned me. The fact that his eagle hit nearly as hard as my grizzly and had almost all the same skills was a kick in the ####.

So was returning things to a couple Outlanders who got the full-loot. I break RP all the time with #### like that. So, um, thanks for making me break role :)

The role which I never wrote was that I was a OneHeart tribesman who tired of his life. I followed a orderly mage from the Araile for a couple years before killing him and taking over his identity. Basic idea was ala 'The Talented Mr. Ripley'.

I may be back. Depends on my timeframe. Got a new lady who I really like so........
73810, Regarding Grizzly

I actually think its one of the top forms for offense--if not the best overall. Granted, you dont get pounce.

My beef with you was that you were evil. And your group tried to hack me down as I tried to rank on several occassions.

I thought you could be a lot tougher than you were. But you seemed hopeless in your speech when we discussed.
73825, And my beef with you is that you took easy kills on me.
Posted by TheManNamedSam on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Over and over and over knowing I couldn't escape from you.

Challenge yourself more often and I might find myself liking you.
73820, Grizzly is one of the best offensive forms hands down. n/t
Posted by Lightmaged on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
n/t
73824, That may be true, however I would have rather had Ram, Tiger, Dire Wolf or Lion.
Posted by TheManNamedSam on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
And probably Alligator too.

Listen, not debating Grizzly might be #### for some builds. It just didn't seem powerful COMBINED with vulture. They were very similar forms (in that they were supposedly ALL OFFENSE yet a lion outdamaged me pretty bad).

I agree with lightmage, I've had grizz and lion post changes. Grizz's offense is Identical to Lion, but in today's CF damage reduction is more important than dodge, grizzly with ABS/Prot Align/stone skin can have some sick ass Redux, When I was nexus grizzly with Vanguard or Bard resist I could tell I had rediculous DPS for the redux. And it has better skills overall than lion at that. Lion seemed blah after having Grizz, which is why Sonlial got the double delete.
73849, I'm sorry, but from personal experience you are wrong.
Posted by TheManNamedSam on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Lion hits much harder and more often.

And as I said, I noticed the dam redux when I wouldn't be using ABS. But once I used ABS, it seemed almost completely neglible.

I still took mauls from Charunycain on normal hits with ABS stoneskin and my form's dam redux.
73907, I enjoyed our fights and our chats stxt

You struck me as being classy which is all I can ask for in my fellow CFers. That and you took some risks against me which always makes the game fun for a villager. I didn't mind dying to you when you got me a couple times and hopefully vice versa.

Grizzly bear frightened me way less than alligator, lion or dire wolf but that's just from my perspective. I didn't notice any great dam redux even when you had barrier up but maybe that's because I usually had quite a bit of damroll going for me.

Anyway, good luck with things.
73913, I'm such a sucker for a well played villager.
Posted by TheManNamedSam on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Especially one I'm sure is played by you :)

Needless to say, its' one of my faults that keep me from being a badass. I'm not a cheap ####.

I loved Charunycain btw. Once I figured it was you, I wanted to give you the best fights I could. I remember being village berserker :)

Though I am somewhat sorry I couldn't con-kill you like Naclarn (sp? Your recent dwarf axe spec in the Fort) did Vrtainen. I woulda been Over-Powered! I coulda been a contenda!

GLWYN.
73909, Heh, thanks?

>Torak - No I will not get a full set of sleeks everytime you
>want to fight a villager. Cherist.

Your generosity was what kept me going for awhile, sorry I harassed you a lot. From the pure amount of sleeks you had I figured you didn't care that much and it was an easy set...if it was a lot of work, my apologies - I had no intention of making it a chore for you.

Thanks though, I liked the char :)
73912, It wasn't work, but it wasn't in the character to be that nice.
Posted by TheManNamedSam on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
And yes, my sleek set was pimptastic. Best part of the char.

Basically Mjraljin was being as nice as he was in part to soften you up for the eventual betrayal.

I'm just ####ty in actually being a ####head evil char.

Rynim was a lot better than some of your others, but jesus christ man. I knew it was you the moment you lead me in the Custom's house on Corte. Only you would disregard my earlier line of 'I'll help you, just don't lead me in to a ####load of guards' without being a #### about it; IE betrayal. You just seem to forget you are leading people who are not mind-readers and know what you are going to do.
73916, Ok that was a bad move on my part
Posted by Torak on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
It was late and instead of fighting a guard we could easily have killed I said to flee, and well...I didn't scan first. You fled into all the lieutenants :( It wasn't intentional and I'm being honest. Why would I screw with someone who was helping me find my sleek?
