38727, With so much drama in the G S V
Posted by Stevers on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
It's kinda hard being orc d-o-double-me
A couple simple tweaks that might make the orc class a bit more appealing:
1)Throw a taskmaster in a couple more locations (warrens? orc dens?). The orc dens might be justified easier than kobold warrens. Maybe orcs are too cowardly to travel without their taskmaster, so there is one at most locations that have orcs. Kobold Warrens might be justified by having a taskmaster that watches over the kobolds (I think there is already an orc mob like this in there, but I havent checked in awhile so I can't remember. If there is, could he be given the ability to train/prac for orcs?).
2)Allow orcs to hide in goblin/kobold villages.
3)Allow orcs to quit in goblin/kobold villages.
3a) Allow orcs to quit anywhere they can hide?
4)Bash starts at 80%
If anyone else has any ideas for orcs, submit them in this thread!

100 in all weapon asp
Solo rank your orc, mastering all weapons and most skills. (must)
Every time I ranked with someone prior to lvl42, was a big regret.
grapple and offhand grapple is highly rated, underused.
A shig-ruh killed Obhehb, solo with no orc army or slave or wineskin
or preps. Both were at full health. No outside aid. That same orc
could have done it again as easily.
Paladin/Invoker vet combo will be your worst enemy. Summon/dispel/quicksand.. maybe a villager/duergar/sword with gates and warcry legacy.
1600hp, 80dmg, stoneskin, protection, berserk, desensitze and more will make all your enemies so-so.

38728, For the love of Grobbak, just give them Shield Block.

I know it's not in the "spirit" of Orcs, but I think it would help balance the class.

In the grand scheme of things once you get into the groove of an orc, there's no real need for shield block. I don't see how it would balance anything.

38744, Ah, Traibu. What do YOU think orcs need? n/t

38745, What orcs need: More orcs.

Orcs need to get all their skills. I can't say for other adaptations but I found that Mamlauks don't really come into their own until the late 40s.

38747, Same with Shig-ru. Rush comes at 35 then Willbreaker at 40. And then the rest of the skills come in between 43 and 48. nt

38756, So they dont get everything until near hero?
Posted by Stevers on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Does that make it a good idea to power rank to 50?
I dont remember when they get savage feeding

38757, If only there were some sort of resource online one could use to view the list of skills a particularly class got...

38763, Seriously, though. Thanks. I didn't even know what a Mamlauk was until I looked at that. n/t

and they seem badass

38943, Reasons why Shig-ruh is superior
Posted by wikataw on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Berserk gives a resistance to all damage if I am correct.
Berserk + clan thing is +30dmg
They lower an opponents morale FAST
A repisote type skill, when you get hit for enough damage, you strike back.
So. Soaks more damage. +morale you, -morale foe. Deals lots damage.
Its like giving an orc perma haste, giant resist and warcry legacy. but better.

38787, It could help for tanking and exploration purposes n/t
