the worst part about mages (and duelling in general)

is when you seem them use an exploit (eg: bullet cast) and then they innocently deny it.

doesnt often happen amongst us vets but it does happen sometimes.

Note: It's spelled Shurikens.  And yes, using a shuriken or any type of range weapon, i.e. Dart, Bow and Arrows, is a good idea against Acid Sheath.  If your a SR monk, most, if not all, of their spells won't hit you.  And if they do, your SR is too low and acid sheath won't even matter.

Iron horn... I dislike the spamming of it.  And wizards, I like that class more than being a sorc because you learn more spells but hate how I need to set spells  :angry:

Ya everything?  Is it really necessary to use I. Invis + sheath/shield thingys vs. a nonbuff/ magic str fighter????
Or spamming reflex save spells vs dex fighters or how bout spamming that horrid.
Most mages cast out of reflex rather than what makes sense.

Horrid Wilting is horrible!  Most mages don't watch where they cast it and it'll hit others.  Same goes for Ice Storm.  I know I'm supposed to stay away from those kinds of duels but what if I was already there chatting with a large group.  Plz have the decency to take the duel somewhere else before you begin so those AoE spells don't hit.  Not like it really matter since we can rest instantly but it's just annoying  :glare:

I hate it when Monks challenge Mages in general.. What's the point? They can't hit you with spells, so what else would they do?

Mage randomers are the best, because they dont know what auto-stilspell is so they average about 40ac

... Is that mage segregation ? Atm nearly all the mage I see ( expecpt few ones like razor , etc ) uses acid shield vs high sr monks . What can they do other than that ? And if the monk have a ranged weapon .... they simply die .

I am with u shadow for horrid , ice storm spammers when they don't look when they cast .

I would like to create a thread like that for monks ... Atm ALL the builds can be defeated by a monk build . Which is not the case for mage .

People are just getting angry because AC bitches are just hit with an other way than melee / ranged . Too bad .

Thx for the support Maxou.  Um, earlier, did you mean to say "discrimination" and not "segregation"?  Segregation is separating ppl.

And, I use acid sheath against SR monks.  Because if my spells can't hit, what else can I do?  Cast TS and try hitting him with my staff?  :D  And if they avoid the sheath by using a ranged weapon, kudos to them for thinking smart as opposed to bitching about the sheath.

what do i hate about dueling a mage? well, when IM melee, I hate those sheats and ele shield wtf bla bla bla.... everthing that hurts too bad when I hit,but ofcourse... a mage wins with the sheat, opponent wins when mage doesn't, legit tactic.

What Blood meant to say was "sheath."  As in the spell "Acid Sheath."  Also, you misunderstood Blood when he said if a mage doesn't use that spell the opponent would win.  So, using that spell is a legit tactic against your opponent.

Right atm mage battle char are more fun to use than fighter char .
About stunning fist > lvl 2 or 3 spell named clarity :P

Viper creating a mage vs mage only char is just VERY  easy it's not like I can't make it . And creating a build vs just one class is just too easy as well .

hmm, clarity sounds very nice :D

and i have seen max beat plenty of pure mages so there is little point (IMO) in making them at all when a char like max's one is all round.

I just think it's a little mean to use acid sheat against pure melees. It's a lot of dmg to take.
