certain skills just not fair....

Flare_ReBorn · 11-26-2004, 01:24 AM

i think that bnet has unbalenced the skills on some chars for example Foh..i mean sure a barb/pally with max res could take it but it is way unfair for casters with the lower res and if the foher has good gear it is almost 1 hit kill for a caster....
also i think that claw block/dodge have gotten out of hand i mean i have met people that have like 67% block/dodge and that is almost too good making it hard to hit them no matter what char u are... i dunno i might be wrong but i think that certain skills were made a little too good
oh ya and also hammers are too good i mean they can own anything in hell with the right gear.... even solo uber D....

Well im out...

well I agree on foh being a nasty skill but its not to hard to overpower them.. a necromancer with the right gear can do that without any problem at all. and allso a amazone should have no trouble if she stays out of reach of his attack. Hammerdins allso are beatable, hammerdins stand little chance versus sorcerer or amazone, and a wel equipped bonemancer should do the trick as well.

pallys with mh that scroll with foh own almost everything cept people with like super res

first of all, foh are NOTHING without the conviction aura on you, if you still got kill by one without aura on you then you shouldnt duel in the first place since your resist is so crappy..... that's why scrolling on foh is pretty pointless to me.
AND I MEAN FOH SUCKS at dueling period.
second of all, if my sorc is dueling foher, i will wear my coh for massive resist (or a um'ed viper magi) and a 160% lightning resist monarch (4 p-topiz shield) that's will give you a nice resist (usually 75%) and if you want to kick it up a notch, you can also wear t-god belt for absorb and max lighing resist and if you are being bad manner enough wear 2 wisp projector and the bloak mask, this way the foh will heal you instead of hurting you.
oh yea, any class with decent gear can tank uber no problem (for example: ww barb, blizzard sorc, charged strike zon, smite pally, bone necro, wind druid, trap assn).... not only hammerdin can take down uber only takes more time, and most hammerdin are not very good dueler, except few of course.

by the time u put on all that gear ur skills will have almost no adding so basically u can survive but not kill....

arbing · 02-21-2005, 12:41 PM

i mean you dont have to equip ALL of those, for dueling fohers, just get your self 85% lightning resist after conviction kicks in (which is easy when you have a 4 topaz shield and a t-god belt)

Guess you didn't know that a merc using infinity stacks with an fohers coviction making it pretty much -100 or so res

arbing · 03-11-2005, 10:55 AM

Well i guess you don't know that the conviction aruas of the pally and merc don't stack together, the higher skill level of the auras is taken by default........ please test before posting.... geeezz people don't test before posting and make themself looks like a fool.

ok i tested on ladder... my friend have a fire sorc with an infinity merc (level 12 conviction aura when equip -85 enermy resist)
i have a v/t pally. with equipment my conviction is at level 25 (-150 enermy resist), my friend give the infinity from the fire sorc's merc for to my v/t's merc to test. (IF they can stack, it will be -235 enermy resist)
the test object is an level 72 amazon in normal, he took off all the equipment of the amazon and give her a 4 topaz shield (160 lightning resist) and nothing more, my pally hostile her and go out WITH the merc. His amazon is standing beside my pally and the merc, when conviction kicks in..... what do you know, the lightning resist drops to +40 (due to anya's quest) where as cold and fire resist drop to -100.....

simple math, 160 lightning resist + 30 from anya's quest = +190 stacked lighing resist, after -150 resist = +40 of lightning resist.
IF both conviction aura stack (WHICH THEY ARE NOT), then the amazon's resist will be 190 - 235 = -45 lightning resist.

get what i am saying or you are too dumb to understand?
