#46275, "Krunk is a fine example."


          

How many skills does a char like Krunk have? Quite a few I would venture. Now look at the majority of fights Krunk engages in, from the logs posted I see one skill used consistently. How many other skills are used with any amount of regularity compared to bash? Which nicely has the chance to trigger two other automatic skills. (I am not saying orcs are overpowered in anyway mind you- I'm saying they're generally foolish to use anything besides bash because of what it does) I'd wager spinebreaker or trip is up there as numbers two and three, and then the vast majority of other skills are rare to see. Sure, we all like to see a punt KB, but can you honestly tell me as a player you don't rely heavily on bash in PKs as an orc?

I suppose doing the same one command in a fight and hoping RNG works for you is fun for some, but I think there is potential for a much more interesting tactical PK system with what is already in place with just a few tweaks.

And yes, being a lag whore is actually is as easy as I think (even easier when you work with an ally). There is a reason most people flee as the first command after someone bashes them, unless they feel they can take them in straight melee combat. It's because generally no one command they execute will swing the fight in their favor, coupled with that they don't know when, or if, that command will come, and if it will do what they hope it will even if they get it off.
