Having stated in the past that my opinion of BDs is that they are not over powered, id like to retract that statement after soloing 6 albs in caledonia tonight.

/yawn thats all you albs do anyway, i think youll find one of them was an infil too

Oh, tried a sorc and go much on it. Thanx anyway

 

[pez]

i noticed you said that the albs should have gone for your healers, i've never been able to experiment with how 2/3 melees can take down a bd, some think all on commander some say all on bd. I think i would have one just disrupting the healers and all others on bd. Like i said not experimented enough.

Nice intelligent post there, took you all morning to get that one out?

Its not a boast thread, Im stating that perhaps ppls ideas of BDs being over powered is perhaps right.

And some people even claim this to be 'fun' and 'exciting'.

Whatever

 

[Whoodoo_RD]

Beginning to see it kinda the same way tbh, but still can be fun to PvE with.

IMO the Bonedancer is a crappy designed class which was entirely broken and nowhere close being able to kill something. So one dude said: Well, what if we add an insta-lifetap to the BD, perhaps we fix some problems then.

They fixed the problem of unable to kill anything, but it's still a crap class.

IMO: Completely rework the Bonedancer. The concept is nice, the current BD just sucks atm.

 

[Whoodoo_RD]

Says the cast 3 pets and leg it class? How exciting that is.

Before you critisise another char, try one (before you ask yes i have a theurg ), the BD has 3 totally differing specs, supp being the most common, then bone army then dark. Beleive me, the mana used with lifetap is a lot, good for me having aug acuity II and serenity II, without which i would probably have gone down a lot sooner. Without the RAs my downtime in PvE is fairly grim.

To fully cast and boof myself and my pets takes me to 20% mana, without boofing others around me, so they are not all that brilliant.

 

[hiban]

what can í say? grats? lol

well... dont expect to do it at lvl 50 i can say. you must have met 6 real noobs. Any damage dealers at all there? i mean like nukers or such? And did u kill all 6 of em at the same time?

Damn, beat me to it.
Noticed there was a bit of frantic button smashing in there, but then if it was 6 on 1 i'd prolly be a bit frantic too.

I wasnt asking for a grats tbh, merely pointing out that im tending to agree with ppls opinions of BDs.

As for timing, I took them out in sucession, the first 5 were in 1 group together, the hunter joined in on the 5th, the 6th guy and the guy who killed me eventually were also together. 7 in total, total mana drain, but yes i think there was an incling of n00bishness involved.

I would say total time lapsed was around 3 minutes start to finish. Self buffs only (no BB) btw.
