u are wrong mistur .. kill that R fag 1st and grp dies np =) 2 bms > his moc

bd pets/lifetap aint gonna really do much atall against a determined assist train from either caster or tanks. itll be good when u got 1-2 crapply tanks on u or 1 unbuffed caster. but sorc/cabalist is far better at surviving a bd when it comes to the crunch, as they can moc/lifetap their hpts back at a far faster rate than a BD.

BD survivability isnt really that shining, the lifetap doesnt heal as much as you think, and the pets dont help so much really, in 1on1 yes in assisttrain fg.. no

yes i agree with both of u, basically this is what i said on my *edit..

NF brought to daoc the era of charge tanks and moclifetappers :e when i solo its far from rare to find a rr4 cabby/sorc/sm who uses purge2>moc2>jamlifetap, 30points, guess what else did he train on at rr4 ;p

Best hib grp setup is a mana eld, a banelord champion, and 2 banelord bm's, BGing warden, a soj bard (ofc), a nature druid 36 nature 40 reg (Convoker), and a 44 nurt 31 reg drood (Perfect0r)

Nib eluv u forgot to add the hero ! remove that champion who wants some weak hybrid anyway :<

I may be retarded but thx

what could be cool is a setup with 2x static tempests, once ended up in 2 and it was nearly impossible to move. dont know if theres a setup that can have this and still be solid. anyways its dark age of charge and bl alot atm imo

 

[Vodkafairy]

champ/bm/bm/menta + support

2x st, 3 x bl, 2 x cm

or swap one bm for hero

only lacking utility from eld, but nice otherwise

ye, could be able to abuse static vs good grps and still be able to pwn all the not so good ones with bl n charge. TWF in it too

its prolly the best group hib can make, but its a choice between overpowered ra (st) or 'anytime' eld utility. id pick eld, because their spells can definitely win fights, but im biased even tho i have a ment

when fighting groups containing your eld you are by far the biggest problem any caster group in mid (and perhaps alb) can face, in most fights you manage to ns so many. This is a problem for us due to the fact your bms seem to have a certain affinity for training me almost immediately, meaning if moc is down the casters in the grp hampered significantly by your ns, since no one else can cure the ns

 

[lofff]

aye, since mid grps only run 1x perfector, ns is devastating agianst them, however its not as harmful against albs/hibs

but an eld has also disease, ns+disease >>> ST+curemezz

basically menta is the worst choice as single caster on a grp, lacks eld utility and chanter dmg output (vs grps with resists, aka any serious grp ;p) and i would take eld over chanter aswell (even tho pet+dps will help interrupting even if chanter is engaged/kiting)

mentalist becomes a really viable option when u team it up with a chanter (bm champ chanter menta + support) but even then i personally prefer the eld and having to press 1 extra button (cold deb)

So yes, 2x ST is somehow viable but takes utility away from the grps options, and since there aint 'too many' good active champs most hibs run st-less

Im having a hard time winning when running with mage groups atm ..I really think that recently midguard tank groups ( no names etc etc ) are tearing the shit out of all our caster groups when we set foot on those alb bridges ...

I dont know ..I think you need a tank group to take that or a caster group with all heads screwed on and its no always the case - we beat that top rr mid tank group once in the last 3 weeks with a caster group compared to the multiple times we bet them with a tank group ..

if You imagine that all forms of CC are out of the question when you fight them its very hard to top an assist on someone ..they charge ..cant be CC'd and the 2/3 troll zerkers go straight onto a HE wearer or a high rr hib caster ..plus with 3 healers using the heal pool ra thats like an xtra 9000hps on top of their instas and SHs ..

Im not saying this is the way of the future or that is the way of the future bla bla ..but when I start groups now I would prefer to set it like this ( not listing mls etc cause thats not always an option if few are on )

BARD
DRUID
DRUID
WARDEN
BM
BM
BM
HERO

if the hero is good ( we only got a few good heroes ) then one will do and can switch guard etc but if its a poor hero I would nearly opt for 2 at the loss of 1 bm ...

only an opinion but its what I have found works ..

Far from dead, if everyone optimize for range combat that means ALOT of casters in cloth gear, instead of whining you should be happy
