I didn't feel like playing him out to con-death - got most of my stuff looted and whatnot and I thought to myself 'What would be the point of spending another ten hours getting a good set and a crapload of preps?' Didn't see anywhere for this character to go, really. Thought about trying for a leader position, but there was no way I would have survived long enough to get one with my playing style, with only nine or so deaths left =P

I've noticed that playing a goodie will automatically net you a lower pk ratio than playing an evil. Even though I thought that Seonex was a lot tougher than Morior, I'm pretty sure I had a better PK ratio as Morior. RP restrictions are tough. Blech.

I enjoyed this character a great deal. Seonex was a pale imitation of a bash spec - The original idea behind him was to make a character who could kill the crap out of bards, seeing as my previous character, Morior, got his ass kicked up and down most of the game by them. I think I was pretty successful in this respect.

Arial dagger specs were surprisingly strong, but I hate the way zerker powers completely negate any maledict-based warrior without haste. Hell, even with haste they can often kill you anyway. I got tired of being owned not because of skill, but because of call bloodthirst/(insert random damage spec here) taking away six hundred of my eight hundred hp, through hurl, artery, and hamstring. The enhancement bloodthirst gives more than made up for any maledicts.

Polearms suck hard in melee, I think they need a bit of an upgrade here - if I was bashing a ranger of equal rank in the wilds, his ranger spear would heal him faster than I could hurt him, and this is including the progs given by the lightforge weapons. Of course, the primary utility of polearms is not their melee abilities, but charge set and cutoff. Still, rangers out of the wilds could regularly out-melee me unless I had a really good progging polearm or switched to daggers.

My two main problems with this combo:

1. Thieves getting through charge set and stealing all my crap, which happened with surprising frequency (out of around the fifteen attempts by thieves, charge set prevented this three times. 3/15) (this was annoying as hell. I didn't mind it when Artias or Seffar did it, because they fought me regularly and I would have a chance to get my stuff back, but when other thieves who just stole my stuff and walked away without even bothering to fight, I really hated it. One skill going off meant you could steal hours of prepwork and force me to start all over again. Ugh.)

2. Villagers. Bastards. Dagger/polearm arials aren't too hot against other warriors anyway, and bloodthirst completely negated most of my strategy. I could have used a polearm and spammed chop on you guys, I guess. Whatever =P

General goodbyes

Fortress: Much love. I enjoy my experience here every time, which is probably why I keep coming back. Too many of you to remember right now, and I'm really tired. Reply and I'll write out my goodbyes individually.

Empire: Good fights. <3 for Draktel, Khar, Nastagio, and Qzeg. Didn't see anyone else around much, except for maybe Qileor, but I never really got a chance to fight Qileor.

Scion: <3 for Batamon, hate for Seffar. I hate binders.

Village: Bah. Even Empire was better about returning things than you guys were. I suppose most of my simmering resentment towards you guys comes from my belief that someone should need to do more than call resist call bloodthirst to win. =(

Anyways, because I can't possibly think of everyone I interacted with over the course of this character, I'll just say that if you reply, I will too!
