Franky

[MidPlayer]

HI all Thidians!!

Blasted Thid is over again far too quickly! No grouping from day one and capped in about a week i think - which is damn upsetting.

Am disappointed in quite a few things:

1. They nerfed my spinning and hitting tactic which shocked me no end - you now miss cos you are 'straffing in combat'.
2. Was practising an advanced fighting tactic to make up for it and nearly had it off pat but capping has stopped that now. What was it? - A tactic that minimized damage to myself from any fighter - as a few found out.

I must appologise to some Luris (and Haamish) as i killed them so often it become embarassing. Infact i stopped doing so the last day or so. I waved to some to give them time to bugger off. Fair play to them though they attacked - brave them Luris for sure.

Oh and anyone remember Jones? - thrust inf? - Franky is a slash alt from the same camp. Which is best? Both are good and i have come to realise that either is good enough if you use the right tactics.

Have fun as no doubt you will. Oh and i wonder how long it will take the Mids to gain the CK again? - Ages and ages by the looks of it - get a grip!!!

Bye for now

Franky - 24 slash inf
Jones - deleted
Wimp - 26 slash/crush xbow armsman
Stun - 35 Crush/shield armsman

soz i havent met you at all today franky, have been beating the crap out of infi's all day long without any1 of them soloing me i think;-). Quite funny as i dont even have bracers, my equipment is totally shiet except my crafted swords off course

Toodles,

Thufir Hawat, lvl 24 nightshade.

 

[Roalith]

Reason none of them soloed you was your 3 NS buddies, Thufir

 

[swords]

im still annoyed by the new armour tables. i get a penalty against NS armour

as i found out today when i attacked you Thufir.
i was quite unprepared to see a lurikeen walking in stealth near me so i decided instead to start with a backstab...unfortunately i respecced full critblade recently and i removed BS from my bar and replaceed it with assault baldurs fury combo and forgot about it.

so in the end i started with a shit style. follwed up with a shit style....you evaded twice and i missed once when i got a grip. end result me on the floor and you bowing...

fair play. i underestemated you and paid the price.

and no more Franky what are the other infs gonna do without you??? i suppose you will be replaced as the inf generator churns out another batch eh

Swords caps in 3 rps so i have been messing about not attacking and waveing and dancing when some inf attacks me....

hopefully you will consider rerolling him, i know i am with Swords perhaps we shall meet again...

 

[SilverHood]

hehe, I remember Franky

nasty bastard why use BS2 for the damn stun

be like the rest and attampt to PA cos if you fail, you die

You leveling another char? My RM is lvl 7 now... think she's gonna be a blast

 

[allnewdave]

Thufir attacked me in front of 12 albs, I saluted him thinking he'd want to rest up from half hits.

Apparently he prefers to fight He died but left me on low hits. Shame coz we could have harrassed the alb zerg mob for a bit.

Hi Swords

If i remember rightly you are the SB that uses a double handed axe to open with. Tis the way i would setup an inf on Mid. Perf with a monster 2 handed and quickly change to 2 axes and the job would be done very quickly. Seems the left axe always connects too so getting 3 poisons off should be guaranteed. Not so with the Albion inf cos if you spec in crit then garote is the style most if not all use after perf or bs2. Using that style does not guarantee the left hand weap will be used at all as crit attacks are made with the main weapon held. Though, ofcourse, if the fight lasts long enough then the chances of the left hand weap connecting is vastly improved.

In my opinion though no inf from Albion should attempt to face an opponent for very long as they don't have enough hit points to consider it. The technique i was attempting in the last 2 days was one where i could have brought down any warrior i think - included chain wearing ones or zerkers. It made me incredibly hard to hit. Though to be honest i don't see the point in hanging around - perf with imbalance so they can't leggit - if you turned your back on me and it was sure death - then swap to different weapons and apply lethal. If i had higher poisoning the middle weap would have had debuffing stuff onnit. Keep an eye on their health - run when it is about 1/3 - poison drops them then. Only time i had problems with this is when the SB or Nightshade had used imbalance on me as well - doh!! All you have to do is to let them attack someone else first - hehe - no more imbalance on their weapons then.

Rerolling another inf? - Hell, not sure i got the interest in doing so anymore. Franky is also a tailor and is a well balanced and generally satisfying alt to play. Tis a pity though that there is no duelling yet as i would like to have taken on some of our own infs. Some upset me no end running down slash when if they met a slash inf they would have real shock. Am sticking to slash myself as i mainly hunt leather wearers. Though will attempt to drop all sorts later on as there is enough versatility and available tactics to upset any fighter.

Mid SBs are extremely potent though killable as are all. I just wish they would change the time that you are in Thid for cos you cap as you are getting to know names and before you can become as good as you would like.

BG2 or 3? - is there stuff there to hunt cos it would be an idea to xp there for the hell of it? - Am gonna show my face there are times for sure.

We should definately try get more interest going in BG's 2 and 3, my inf is nearly capped out now, and I can't face just leveling to 50 , I'd like to take a break and play with some 24-34 skills in the BG's.

 

[old.Xanthian]

Bah Frankey...

I just successfully killed 1 Paladin and 1 Infil after they both attacked me, then you come along and PA me

No honour..

And stop going around in 3's its gonna cap me too fast killing all 3 of you

Hi m8y

Was it you - a berserker anyways - came to finish me after i had dropped an archer i think it was? I got mezzed and was awaiting my fate when yu or another like you thought to get an easy kill? And wot happened? - got you to about a 1/3 life without you hitting me once i do remember - and bear in mind i was not using poison!!! Along came about 3 others to finish me off. If they hadn't then you or the other zerker would have dropped and i would have got away. Read my other postings as i was getting my replacement fighting technique sorted to drop the likes of you and chain wearing warriors.

One thing i didn't do in my time there was to concentrate on easy kills. Most - and i would say at least 75% of my kills were on stealthers. Tis a pity we can't meet up again though will be xping in the next stage Battlegrouds so come along there and we can try again!!

Zerkers are great and look hilarious - luv the furry look!!! But you can't kill wot you can't hit - hehe.

[swords]

nah i use a Njessi fang sword.
its a pretty fast 2 hander so i will be getting a crafted Dwarven great sword cos its slower and very nasty.
i can then change to the relatively fast fang and start garrotting.

this also leaves me with a dilemma. full critblade? or semi crit with at least lethal poison and a good imbalance poison???


i prefered my old spec tbh it was easier to fight nightshades with doing all that dmg per tick so im going back to the old one when i reroll.

Xanneh - vs - Franky? - BG2?

Yo Xanneh,

Wot a woman Troll? Heck, am not sure i want to kill you now. I gotta thing about killing women! Load of rubbish that - hehe. Show your face in BG2 as i am levelling and i will attempt to shorten your time there!

By the way all Thidians - BG2 is exactly the same? How come no-one goes there? Anyways i am as i have found enough prey to level me. Anything shows from an enemy realm - and i mean anything - i will attempt to kill. Will be on there in the evenings at least from about 6-7pm onwards. Any other time i could well be found in Darkness. By the way saw a Norse there today called Silverwolf - thanks for not blitzing me!. I honestly can't see why BG2 can't be as enjoyable as BG1. You will have gained a few levels and be even more potent a fighter. Why not try out your new specs?
