Post Spells kick my ass
 
Posted 2003-12-26, 11:16 PM
Spells kick my ass. I'm high in resist and i've been killed by an explosion and energy bolt alone with 92 hp so many times. Even with high magic resistance its like everything does max damage. Simple combos kill - newbs are practically an even match for a PvP veteran. Maybe lowering max damage of the higher levels spells by like two, and increasing the minimum damage by two would do PvP good. It would also help reduce randomization of spell damage, so you dont do five damage with energy bolt, or a bullshit killing explosion that does 48 damage. Just a suggestion, anyone aggree?

Maybe its just me, but it shouldn't be just me. I have 95 resist and I ALWAYS get killed by simplistic combos. Its almost a guaranteed kill if someone casts Explosion - Poison - Energy Bolt - Poison - Energy Bolt... Unless of I resist one of the poison, otherwise its only possible to get like two lesser heals in and two cures... Dead Good Game. Making the max damage reduced by two and min damage increased by two would help eliminate random spell damage; therefore having more probable conclusions to battles so the better player in the fight doesn't get killed by the lesser player's pure luck.

Ok. First : Invest in cure potions.
Second : If you cast weaken on them as they are going to do the EB the delay is timed nicely, you can do cure arrow g heal.
Third : Cast protection
Fourth : Cast magic reflect
Fifth : Get healing
Sixth : Macro resist
And yes finally spells do need to do a little less damage. =] My dexer with 100 dex dies to exp weaken EB, if he's not dead from that like, fireball or lightning will finish it.
I talk trash because I can back it up, duel me?

Drithe, you shouldn't have to tell him stuff like that since he thinks he is a vet. He gets killed coz he sucks and thinks that surviving a dump is done by solely casting heal and cure. The spell damage has always been fine comoretard chalk up your troubles to user error.

My proposal is not to make spells do less damage, its to decrease their maximum damage and increase minimum if you didn't already read. I prefer to be self-sufficient and not carry around potions everywhere I go, its just another thing to worry about, and usually your opponent will quit or run away everytime you cast, which i don't blame them. Do you really like things to be so random in combat? There have been so many times I know I should have killed someone but for some reason spell randomization decided to play against me and only do 12 damage. Then its their turn to dump, and spell randomization decides to play with them and one spell kills me from 45 hp. I'm not saying that spell randomization never worked for me, I just believe it would make PvP a whole lot more strategical and interesting when you don't always have to predict and consider that their next spell may kick your ass.

if you are asking for spell max damage to be lower then you are in fact asking for spells to do less damage Einstein. Spell Randomization is a major part of the game and its mechanics quit crying and get used to it.

Add them together, idiot. If the spell does TWO less max-damage and TWO more minimum damage then the AVERAGE damage of the spells stays the same, you moron.

yes, but thats not what you said in your last post. You said you werent asking for spells to do less damage and if you lower MAX DAMAGE then they do LESS DAMAGE because they are now under parameters that won't allow them to do as much damage as they were previously. Why are you arguing with me its math. I guess you won't get to these kinds of concepts until 4th grade next year.

Um, yea, of coarse they are gunna do less max damage, but average damage is what I believe it all comes down to. That was the whole reason for the post. AVERAGE damage AVERAGE damage. Overall they are still gunna do the same amount of damage... AVERAGE. You're interpritation is different than mine, and calling my idea of it stupid is only calling yourself stupid.

I do think the spells feel a bit too powerful, I get killed with an explosion and 2 ebolts with 70 resist =\

Ok kid that made no sense saying me calling you stupid made me stupid but anyway back to reality. You see how now you put into your post that you are talking about average damage since I made you look like a fool. You said that lowering max damage wouldn't make the spells do less damage and that is just you begging to be called a moron. Trust me most of the people here would love to say how wrong I am because they hate me but they are being silent now because in this case I am right and you are a moron. my interpretation of your post has nothing to do with the wonders of math. You mispoke, I pointed it out, you looked like a retard, now you are backtracking and every reply you make you just show how stupid you really are. Keep posting retard I enjoy making kids like you look dumb.
