solo Mauler fights ...

[Dutch_NS]

only remember one fight vs you, and it was the time on bridge when i was on irc. when i tabed back in the game i was on 10% and a reaver was hitting you, you still kept hitting me.. seconds later you died..

Y that was 1 fight your omni procs went of like 20 times i was like wtf just die then the reaver showed up lol.

But the other fight was on the bridge when you came back, i had 2 matter lws lets say your hp went down the drain hehe ? bad matter resists?

froststallion lvl58 fully buffed -> everyone.

Oh ye, right... forgot bout that one. But as i said in my first post, ive been out in RvR for a few days now in a none finnished template. All my magic resist was on 15% and below (0% energy \o/). My template got ready yesterday tho. So from having 6% matter from last time we fought, i now have 24% matter + CL resist buffs, +200 more HPs.
I'd love another go .. :worthy:

I still havn't fought/seen any mid maulers...

Might be out tonight tho. You'll find me in emain or HW.

What would be more interesting is that a Mauler fighting a Vamp, who would win?

Amphrax

When i solo with my Mauler Galatheus i dont have any problems with Vampiir. A Vampiir with a pwn template just makes the fight last abit longer.

I have yet to loose vs vampiirs. I even took a vamp duo few days ago (low rr's tho).

 

[Kagato]

you wont win your DPS is to slow

my dps is similar to yours in a way and this is how it goes i can slam if they are not dropped in slam you lose because this will happen

fight starts ok not so bad they dump warguard slam - dmg dmg dmg they are at 20-40% (IP backup if they need it) bladeturn on, HoT on, Fumble proc 50% up.

Bladeturn, Evade then while you miss them two hits the maulers HoT is generating 10-15% hp every time it ticks on top of that you won have end to style since most of them have 100% end drain

worst thing you can do with a mauler is draw the fight out as you will lose - fast attacking burst DPS is the only thing that will beat them

basically a warden with higher dps

thats just how i see it though

Quite possibly so, but at the moment im not to worried, still twatting them for over 1k a pop for now.

When they start getting ml warlords and rr5 + it will be the problem as they will basically have 2 free warguards with power return +battler till it's nerfed.

Really makes you wonder what mythic are smoking when they sit down to design expansion classes.

so do maulers get power from magicdamage or only melee?

All damage. Quite alot of it from nukes aswell.

I fought quite a few maulers (on avalon) on my bm now, ranging from rr1->6, low rr is np, sidestun and dps burst get the rps, if you kill them fast they dont have time to fire all their shizzle.
At higher rr.. dont bother, they pop IP2->pbt->hot->fumble->end drain and do quite good dmg.. rly fun if they start jumping around in a twf3 with hot running as well.

I really do think the performance of the class is to a high degree determined by skill (ability to utilize the right toys at the right time in the right order) and by spec more than template etc. Cause this class rly has alot to play around with from what i seen.

Bit like vamps, some are soft as hell, some are hard as fuck.

my 2 cents

hm. hm. cant really see vamps killing maulers then, if both players are decent with good resists etc.

And from my point of view, maulers are for 1on1 fights as warlocks was before nerf. Increadible OP. The classes i feared the most, has been proven to be the easiest while the classes i though would be a pie, turned out the other way.

yeh, plain unkillable if well templated and well played... our little (doh! think we fooled around for like 10 minutes or more) fight* prooved it well.

*note: i was on vw grouped with the druid and had bg on it, also i buffsheared him too... still i could not kill slusken - hot, evade, bubble, evade, bubble, hot... and so on and so forth

nope, a vamp will last during first minute at most, but since he wont able to hit often enough to power up, he will die when his buffs will drop while mauler will be at full power all the time.

 

[traktorlove]

a powered up vamp will just dd the mauler down

 

[Darkmack]

You owned me good and proper on my Mauler last night, although in my defense I had dinged 50 about 5 mins earlier and still not in full template (mix of artis and epic).

Then about 5 mins I came back to see if you were still there, couldn't see you but a ranger jumped me, managed to get him down then you came out of nowhere, slammed me so ranger could escape. Was a bit pissed as it would have been my first bit of rp's with the mauler.

Still managed to kill a ns after he PA'd me later which earnt me enough points for purge 1

P.S. us Mancs should stick together, so next time u see me in rvr just gimme a /hug so i can leg it lol!

haha manc is the win ;\

but yeah i felt bad slamming you but if it was another random guy wouldn't of helped

generally i only jump in when someone is outnumbered but it was just because he was a nubstar brummy in this case

maulers its either pray for celerity to proc on slam or try to dump and kill asap still lose to most though

 

[Septina]

After having respecced solo ra's on warr (mob4, parry4 etc) and still getting bumraped by a rr4 mauler (hi pigletm8 ) i'm starting to realise how much of a new 'warlock' this class really is when it comes to smallscale rvr.
But, judging from previous expansions i'm not all that surprised. Make one class incredibly overpowered so as many people as possible buy the damn expansion and then somewhere down the road nerf said class to oblivion and beyond.
I for one will stay as far away as possible from this new wondermode class of DAoC that this expansion brought.
