I had huge plans for this, wanted to make another dual PoV movie but this time with a rr1 NS with /rp off, and my shadowblade. Wanted to capture footage for atleast 1 month to get those perfect fights. But things never go your way.

I ended up with just playing my SB and after I while I couldn't stand the situation on Dyvet anymore.

So here's the result, it's not what I hoped for but I'm pretty happy with it anyways :)

Size: 419MB
Length: 19:12

Clicky

Enjoy, probably the last you'll see from me in DAoC.

I liked it, was pretty well played. Still cant see a reason why u don't use remedy vs other venom users.

Nice movie..

Game has been totally fucked over tho, if I see scouts actively try and melee you down and (almost) succeed, I know this game is totally fucked over.

These DW/CD/LA-changes regarding not penetrating defenses... roflmao.. GG Mythic, even a kid can see with such a change shield becomes totally imbalanced due to it having RA's which linearly increase your defenses. No such skill available for DW-mechanics..

Oh well, I guess scouts deserved their spot in the melee-spotlights aswell, after being ranged-kings for so long xD

But is there any point in playing a melee-ranger then? If I see how much poison is needed to kill a scout due to him blocking insanely much, I dont see how a ranger can beat a scout in melee. Not to mention in ranged combat the scout will also be king.. Giving scouts the 'buff-line' aswell is the icing on the cake

This game is even more imbalanced then WoW now :/

the king of making it hard for himself strikes again! top vid, reminds me of playing scout. quite possibly the last good vid to come from dyvet!

if you really still enjoy assassins as they were 'used' to be played, sticking to the roaming paths and fragging the poorly equipped, occasionally bumping into the rocksolid soloer - try out temair. can help you with exp, arti credits and scrolls if needed. just send me a pm if it is only dyvet pissing you off and not the game itself :)

i liked the movie and music, but there were a few things i dont get..

such as, why not use bludgeon vs the first armsman for example? also your 'moving' in fights such as the walking-backwards-even-if-enemy-aint-stuck only favours your opponent if he is a 2hander and should swing less then you do, he gains dps since you both swing when you get into meleerange periodically..

he probably want the hits from the 2h user to be unstyled as they bee if u move like that, unstyled hits dosnt hit as hard and miss more often while he dosnt loose that much dmg self bcs dmg mostly comes from viper3 lifebane to tick away.

Yes...they dont perform that well. And i am getting really dissapointed on PA/BS effectiveness. Huge variance for my liking and usually low hits too. Hope my goal is to endure this for just a little more only.
