Originally posted by Suggs Esper, Yes I do expect a barb to do similar damage to that of a ment of same size (and yes Brad, the barb shouldn't have to rely on a detrimental ability for this to happen). Both classes focus is on damage, unless I'm way off the mark with my class interpretation. Please...

Originally posted by Suggs With haste I would put myself about on a par with a ment of similar size, but still a good way behind what a RP'ing MA can dish out. Jay___ZAND With haste, do you really expect to do damage similar to a Ment's (an understatement, imo), and at the same time vamp back more ...

Not a barb I'm a ment, so I'll put this from a ment's perspective. I'll compare some of Poldarn's data to my own. 4 minutes is what it would take for level 70 ments to do wardens. If a barb is doing that much damage at level 61 with a 55% chance of haste, what will happen when they are 70 with a 100...

I'm curious, just how much exp, skill, and gold did you and your party gain while "testing" this? Care to share this information to justify this "testing" you've done?

You title this thread as "Quirk abuse" then claim that you are only testing a quirk. Nice one.

I agree with Freddie.

What is the point of making it so that only pay players may attend the conference? There are non-pay people who may have more knowledge of the game than paying players.

You remind me of a story about a blind kid whining about why the world is black.

Replying to Topic 'A lair crit idea,'

Why do people farm lairs in the first place? It's not about the lair, but about the drops. When creating a lair, just keep in mind the amount of times the lair needs to be killed for the average player. Avoid random drops on lairs. If a lair has a 10% chance of dropping a robe, and each player wants...

I'm now getting a mixture of 2s and 3s, about 1/3 of the rounds being 3s

The way that haste used to work for me allowed me to get mostly 3s, 2s were caused by lag.

I completely concur that lori staff is crap, adding 6 skill levels of damage barely makes a difference, a fact which you have observed and which has led you to the incorrect belief that lori staff does not in fact add 6 skill levels. Part of my argument for why ments are at a disadvantage in cob is...

Replying to Topic 'Ments-Cob-suck'

The first set of boosts add 50% effectiveness to the disc. For example, a skill 28 ment's boosted firebreath would be equal to a skill 42 ment's unboosted firebreath.

The +6 skill levels on a lori staff adds 6 skill levels to the base damage, not boosted.
