#16113, "(DEL) Sao"


          

I had a good time. A shame it had to end like it did.

I really missed the old Scion. After the purge, there was so little to do. I guess, in the end, boredom caused me to do something I shouldn't have done.

Goodbyes:

Jhard: I really don't know what to say here. I felt like you patronized me too often. A shame, too. We were such good friends ranking up. I really wish you would have fought more on land. We missed out on a lot of fights because you wanted to get back on the sea. For the record though, I liked you.

Karnif: For not even casting a spell, you got the short end of the stick. Sorry to bring you down.

Usalar: Even though I didn't see you much, if I had it my way you would have been out a long time ago.

Crimthann: You seemed nice enough. Spend some time exploring, and you might be strong.

Jarold: You are probably the best invoker in the Tower now, it's going to be tough work keeping everyone shielded.


Other current Warlocks: I tried to get friendly with you, but none of you can be relied on when it counts. The young ones don't show a lot of promise either. I don't have high hopes for most of them save one or two.

Ragers: Solo, it's impossible to kill a prepped invoker. I tried not to take anything when I killed any of you. Up until the very end, at least.

Scions: Instead of being a cabal of 40odd where the select five are involved in the quests, the select five now make up the entirety of the cabal.
Also, counter beats volley.

Sylvans: I didn't like you.

Others:

Vahlron: Good luck with that thing.
Queesha: Thanks for showing me that place.
Jelomar: Sorry we never got you that thing.

Maybe it's back to evil for me. Warlock powers are bar none the best in the game, and I like the RP, but spending hours chatting while waiting for the lone scion to show lacks some flair.

P.S. I'm halfway done with the rewrite for the Tower. When I finish it, I'll send it along.

I liked you from the beginning and could tell that you had tons and tons of potential, which shined through. Sorry we couldn't interact more as we both got older, but it just seemed like our playing times didn't really interact too much towards the end of your character's life (thought that could easily be that I don't get to play as much as I'd like). Anyhow, best of luck with your next and all that.

Braoldan.

I agree, and I'm sorry for my other response to Sao's death. What little I saw of Sao (which wasn't much, we seem to play at different times), there was a lot of potential in both the character and the player, and I'd bet cash on him continuing to play quality characters.

Keep going Sao, don't let anyone get you down.

You really carried me on your back for a bunch of ranks. I owed you a lot for that. I would have done a lot for you if you had only asked. It's a shame we didn't work together more. I really liked your RP, and it was obvious your PK wasn't lacking either.

How does that apply to an invoker around 30th or so, grouped with a ranger and warrior, being attacked while ranking by an orc and an antipaladin? The invoker and ranger died, and the warrior barely managed to run for it. (by the way, you were that invoker, Sao)

Because I remember fighting you on eastern with Kaavraus and that other nexus invoker and I sent all three of you packing at agony or less without rest. I remember you bolting right away when my disembowel hit you but didn't kill you, and I know you had barrier up as well as all the shields you could put up. Granted Gre is probably the best step up for taking down invokers (besides one other idea I got , so I may be an anomoly. But a prepped invoker is not unbeatable as a rager.

As to the rest, I enjoyed fighting you and invokers in general. Invokers seemed especially willing to fight in one on one or one on two situations and I enjoyed that immensely because both of us had risk of dying, but our death was not completely out of our hands. I thank you for coming at me a few times on your own.

Good luck and take care Sao, you will be a missed enemy.

Never had any trouble with prepped invokers except when I messed up myself but that can happen against any class.

Fully prepped and prepped are two different things. I figured we had the fight, and was just working on immolate to seal the deal. It never took. The difference between 5 shields + barrier and 5 shields, barrier, aura, shield, stone skin, and ward of deflection is massive. We had some fights - your spellbane seemed too effective.

You did get me once though in a raid, and the thing that pissed me off about it was that I died to save Tobras, and he deletes within an hour afterwards. Got full looted too, and I know it wasn't your fault, but that's why I was at your corpse that one time working on the same. Sorry.

Good fighting.

p.s. If you were a scout, no invoker would be able to touch you. I take back my previous statement. Berserkers sacrifice power against invoker/shifter for power against all other classes.

Ok for someone I barely knew you took time to slight me so I am curious as to why. I am around rarely because I have a new son and it's hard to play cabaled chars when you have to get up and tend to more important things at any instance. The mysteries were made aware of my other duties and thin logging time long ago and I recieved an ok from the sorceress. Caysh and Tasfiel also knew I would not be aroud oft for a few months. Playing a voker once in a blue moon has made me rusty with him and more than once I have had to just drop link and walk away which has cost me a death or two. I hate you somehow have a bad impression of Usalar but if you knew me in my younger days I think I earned my place in the Tower and hopefully you wouldn't feel like you feel. As far as Sao goes I really didn't form any opinion as I think we met less than six times but from the times we did you seemed well played.

i'll explain my tendancies when i die that you saw, had a lot of fun with you, why i didnt fight iwth tang much on land?
ragers would always instantly boneshatter me and i just became a meat shield, i didnt dodge worth a crap anymore or hit anymore, just got hit
boneshatter really screws dodging forms. against scions i had no problem fighting, it's ragers that bother me cause the all seem to use maces
was a lot of fun though, good luck with your next

Ah yes. and now to wait for the twins that never logs on.

I used to agree with you about the boredom of there not beeing any scions, but there are pretty many ragers/warders to keep it going.

OOCly I think the 'punishment' is far over-do. But IC I get it. However it's probably nothing that should be discussed here. Perhaps we will meet again soon on the other side of the coin.
