Necromancers

[Guru]

so what? that was over a year ago.....barbarions have change and are capable of dueling amazons now....who said i used buriza, Blackhorn ands Cleglaw anyway? i dont use one of those items mentioned in that paragraph....and y dont u talk to that guy namded Frosty on here? he'll tell u a barb can take a zon

 

[Misterwhippy]

i find that article to have much relevence to this argument we have gotten into. some barbs might easily take a zon, but its easier to equip a zon then a barb. guided, which will be changed in 1.10 so it doesent peirce (and hopefully wont have always hit once locked anymore) will make barb vs zon duels more evenly matched. WW wich does always hit and multiple hits, does go much slower then guided. when a zon can stand away from town and shoot guided at the enterance at any barb who just comes out, makes zon vs barb duels unbalenced in favor of the zon.

 

[Guru]

ok i do agree it is easy/cheaper to equip a Zon then a barb....and zons who stay in town and just jump out at shoot then run back in are cheap...im not talking about those types of zons...im just saying that a zon who doesnt run into town whenever he gets scared, instead stays out on the battlefield and fights a barb there isnt cheap....the barbs chances of winning are the same as the zons....but i havnt heard anywhere that guided isnt going to pierce....i heard that multi shot will be reduced in the numders of arrows it fires but thats it....could u plz post a link that says guided will be changed?

a little before halfway down
"As far as we know Guided Arrow is definitely not going to Pierce anymore, since that came in with a bug in v1.09, and is quite overpowered, especially for boss killing and PvP. Remember, just because your character enjoys and exploits an overpowered skill doesn't mean it won't be changed. "

if a zon stays within resonably close proximity to town and doesent scroll, and goes out at the same time as a barb, that might be a fair zon vs barb duel.

 

[Guru]

first off guided will still kick ass.......and they said "as far as we know".........that was July 23rd also....its a little past that now... later on in september 25 it said nothing about guided...it talked about multi and fire arrow but nothing about guided

 

[Misterwhippy]

just because the information is old doesent mean its not true. ive herd many times about how guided is bugged and isint supposed to peirce. guided will still probably kick ass.

 

[Guru]

no one can predict the .10 patch....i think that they consider amazons to over powered now so they will reduce their skills...if multi shot is reduced in arrows and guided doesnt pierce, they probally wont be the best anymore : (......sorcs will suck because they are x2 the hit points and takinggg off the 50% physical immune it will take sorcs almost twice as long to kill monsters...im going to invest in barbarions.....they didnt say anything, as i recall, about making them worst....they can all ready beat any character in dueling (if raised right)....so im going to play with my barb now instead of my zon...he is only lvl 80 now but im going to play lotz of cows and try to get him into the 90s be4 .10

 

[Misterwhippy]

im gonna make a barb and get him to the 90's as quick as possible. also, i hope they do this, but they should give necromancers skills more power. like bone sprit or bone spear. that would make the necro more able to do hell. (insted of a slow agonizing trip in hell) My necro can itself do hell but it takes forever. (hellforge quest took me a shade under an hour) zons are overpowered, and probably the cheapest to maintain. get her a buriza, shaft, crappy gaze, and either tgods or string easily on east for 6 SOJs.

I hate necros thats that.

 

[Misterwhippy]

theyre so fun. bone wall iron maiden barbs just die its so funny. or i can use iron golem and IM with a thorns merc, haha its so great.

 

[liqu1d_g0at]

Pallys are "OK"? you think they cant match barbs? I think barbs are plain gay... they get increased speed pasive, resistances pasive defense pasive all those fag barbs get everything pasive and they get a gay skill that 2x their life and mana and thats just gay, then the only thing they can do is WW which is the lamest skill because you dont require skill to do it you just click and it kills everyone in the way. with a pally justy stand still hold shift when that barb comes left click + shift and if you manage to get him hes screwed, you can just charge him which is a better way but... BARBS OWN PALLYS? you must have dueled newb pallys... thats just pissing me off...

 

[Chronomancer]

I agree with liqu1d even if i use a necromancer i still think he has a point

 

[Farslayer]

Ok well ill probally catch flak from everyone for this but Necs and druids really have no place trying to duel.palys shouldnt as well but do a much better job than the latter.Everyone who says this is cheap or that is cheap about the diffrent tatics people use are just babies.The fact is ,if it bothers you that much,figure out a way to beat them ,or stop dueling.Both Zons and barbs have skills if built right make them badass so i dont see what the problem is.But as far as a nec or druid trying to duel is just silly.I personally dont duel but have watched tons.And i never saw a nec or druid EVER stand a chance in hell.Ive seen zons use cheap tatics and barbs as well but ive also seen them get beat while doing it so everyone should suck it up and if you want to duel then definately build a barb or zon(possibly paly)

Thats my opinion and im sticking to it

 

[Misterwhippy]

haha, if you ever duel a druid with bugged shit itll take forever to kill. and if necros bone spirit did more damage itd make PvP more fun against ranged characters... and if youve never seen a necro stand a chance in hell then you should watch me go though it with mine. sure it takes forever but its not as hard as youd think. just gotta use bone sprit and corpse explosion. i hardley ever see anything thats magic resistant...
