arnor, you are forgetting these poor albs have been zerged and owned (due to relics and OP classes/setups!) for 3 years now.

if they can use bugs to finally be able to win, let them! its all fair imo :)

Since you dont know: Midgard and Hibernia can get the hauberk too, and I dont think it will surprice anyone else if I told you that people in those realms have got it for exactly the same reasons as people in Albion has got it.

Ok, so the proc works against magic damage. It says "spell damage", so he should still take melee damage?

And if I understand correctly, he's still going to be able to pull mobs on himself and the proc will go off after it's patched aswell? And that part is probably working as intended since there's a downside about having mobs attacking yourself(albeit not that big in his case :p ).


correct, although next patch the proc will absorb most of the damage from *one* spell, and then dissappate until it procs again. Instead of lasting 10minutes and absorbing everything but crits&dots.

I thought all realms could get Eirenes Hauberk ?
So why are ppl crying about it?

Funny how ppl call playing a char/class exploiting just because it get nerfed in a later patch.
So if you know that spell/style is getting nerfed in a comming patch ur a cheater for using it?
Come on ppl, unless ur not using 3rd party programs to get ahead in the game ur not cheating imo, unless Mythic/GOA goes out and tell anyone who uses this item/spell/style is classed a cheater and will be banned or whatever.

Ok so the hauberk is overpowered but so has alot in this game been.
Just suck it up and get on with it.

And NO I DON'T have that hauberk.

Can bowlingballs be sharp? :p

Agree though that would be better if people didn't try and get it to proc on purpose (whichever realm). Then again seems whenever a bad bit of coding comes in people use it to get as many rps as they can. A pity, but a fact of DAOC :mad:

I think most ppl who defends those who _abuse_ the proc (mind u, not every eirenes hauberk user abuses its proc blatanty) simply have never faced an abuser themselves

And arguing with those stupid enuff to abuse it, well lets just say their arguments get tiring and redundant

Conclussion, we just gotta bear with it till 1.71 it seems 8)

Arnor really read what you said "retarded programming" -you dont have the right or anyone else to judge a guy and whine so much for a bug(which is not his fault) that will be fixed .
Its boring to say again the same words zZz ..<"retarded programming"> as you said.
and yer if someone hits me and eirenes proc ,i dont have in my mind to cancel the effect , thats lame i guess :(

it is his fault when he pulls mobs so hell have the proc perma up.

And orreborre, yea i really did :c

no1 has said that its ok for hibs and mids to use it but not albs. Just cuz all 3 realms can get it doesnt make it right.

Naffets log is of Hand of God (or the equivalent hib/mid spells)...

nothing to do with Eirene's.

It's a 70%/80% or 90% resistance to EVERYTHING (depending on the realm - shaman get a 70% at 42 aug, clerics 80% at 46 enhance, druids 90% at 47 nurture)

It's focus for the cleric casting it - they can't move can't cast anything else.

The character it's cast on can move around freely (not sure on the tether range) but if they start attacking or casting the effect drops.

So, if you cast it on a high hp character and run around outside the tower the cleric is in, people run up to you and try to nuke/melee/whatever and meet 80% resistance, damage from which is easily healed by Divine Intervention or the like (which won't break focus if it's up). So, until you manage to do 3000 points of damage whilst hitting for 1/5 of your damage (effectively needing to do 15000 points of damage) you're not going to hurt that character.

Of course that char is just jumping around like a madman since they can't do anything else ;) but you do get to have a good laugh at the other people in the tower obliterating the fools that run for you.

p.s. no more direct accusations about cheating - you can discuss whether having monsters proc your armour is cheating (even though in the recent whine case the proc wasn't used....) but name names and I nuke it - same as Radar whine. If you think someone in particular is cheating use RightNow.

Well, i got that vest, dont mind if u tell me lame.

1. The proc dont spire after 10 mins, some times i go AFK and when i come back 30 mins + it still up. But some times it expire after few mins oO
2. When u die and rel/rezz it still up.
3. It dont work with any melee damage, only magic and siegue Oo
4. It absor all damage -1 without crits. If u got high ressist it heal more.
5. Dont need pull mobs to get it procs, Guards/pets allways proc it
6. all realm can use it but... ofc albs w0n more of all realm, the alb ligth tank can use it... + DT = merc r unkilleable class. mmm 2 cleric (with Eirenes), mincer (with eirenes), pala (eirenes), sorc (NO Eirenes), pole arms (eirenes), x2 merc (Eirenes). mmmm 7 of guys on group can be inmune to magic and they got mincer ablative+som+cleric heal proc+ x2 DT+sorc RA+[...]= inmune to melee... :m00:
Tnx good albs here r so useles for do anything without zerg and dont get any advantage for it.

I see, how on earth was celinka under a shaman focus shield at her docks, didn't see a shaman anywhere near her, and doesn't that spell line cause uber power absorbtion? enough for it to fade after a few minutes? Me and another ranger were hitting her for around 5-6 minutes before we were both dead and barely reduced her hp at all.

Ah well nm

Edo was using the Mid version of Hand of God near Bled3 on Saturday.

Levithian was getting 16(-240) for the melee part.

I have used it at tower sieges to run out and get a good GT at the trebs etc, and I have also used it to to deliberately aggro the shroom farm so others could run through a breach.

Situationally powerful, but not a bug.

It might be a shaman hiding somewhere on a fop...

It wasn't eirenes because that doesn't work on melee etc.

If it happens every time send a RightNow they might have found some dodgy way to get infinite range/power on it.

i know a way to keep focus shield up without it draining mana, it gets fixed in a patch or two.

why cant we name and shame them since 'using the bug' isnt against the CoC? or is it?

Abuse it to the max, its only bad coding and bad coding should always be abused to the furtherest extent you can imagine. At least thats the impression I got from reading replies from Iorlas, Ameinon, Grymulv and some other people.

I don't care if he is the best merc in the world, that doesn't excuse him for defending bug abuse like this.
