Man am I sad to see this. I was hoping for more interaction with you. From what I saw you had a pretty solid grasp on how to play the class and more than once had me wondering if I was going to get out of our encounters alive. Even though I wasn't the target for some reason you and I kept running into each other as we progressed up the ranks!

I hope that you enjoyed yourself, hope that you'll come back with another.

GLWYN!

Why? You just heroed and I enjoyed our run ins.

First ever transmuter, good rods, had a blast, but too thin skinned. Even with full A/B/S I was getting two rounded after having my spells dispelled. I enjoyed our run ins as well, every part of them except the fact that you seemed to be able to fully dispel me with a single commune. Prayed about that, seems kinda lopsided to me, and was pretty much told to stop whining. Anyway keep on trucking with the shaman, you seem to be making a name for yourself, good luck with that. You may see me in some other transmuter charachter soon, but be assured it wont be elven, the sneaking just isnt sufficient trade off for the thin skin and iron vuln.

For what it's worth...I was pretty scared of Enarn (human fortress muter) when I was playing Waserax (empire duergar shaman). Prayer beads + eagle-inscribed staff + a/s/b.

I'm just saying its not the case that "duergar shaman >> goodie muter".

Why does maran matter? Afaik when Enarn was around marans didn't yet have the anti-dispel thing. So he had...zeal. Lightforge is mostly irrelevant since he was using eagle-inscribed staff anyway. Though, I guess lightforge could matter more if the shaman had shield of blackest pitch.

Would be relevant if a certain lich wasnt hoarding the eagle staff, and Eldarus was quite deadly to a few classes, I would say duergar shaman isnt one of the classes that should most fear transmuters though. I very rarely managed to stun Derogker with neuro, he resisted my spells quite well, sometimes taking four and five attempts a piece to soften and decalcify, by this time I am plagued blindned and running a little low on mana, he flees heals himself a few times and returns, I get off a few disruptions before he dispels all of my spells and then I am dangerously low on mana, and need to get out. He did kill me a few times, but it wss mostly because I stuck around alot longer than I should have, and as he really had no way to keep me from fleeing, it was just poor judgement on my part. I remember Waserax, dont think I ever fought him but I do remember him, perhaps Derogker is geared more towards fighting mages because I really never even got close to killing him, and I had two sets of beads, helm of brilliance, and full a/b/s, just no eagle inscribed staff.
