Why didn't you back off when you got in range of the Archers? How is it possible that he was able to tank 3 people for any period of time? I would think that it would be rather easy to keep his offence at 0 and his IP less then 6 so that he cannot flex. He wouldn't be able to gain defence from slide or from oak stance... how was he keeping his defence up at all? I just dont understand how the fight went... anyone want to elaborate?
well to clarify, we didn't die fighting one guy. however this one melee char was severely overpowered in comparison to us. i had about 550ish melee buffed (the highest out of anyone involved in the fight on the goon side), and a full sting took off only about 1/3 of his def bar so that right there was a great big 'holy shit' moment to me.
sotsa is exaggerating just how long this guy was able to tank for. i think he got off one sting before he ran back to archer cover. you can't really see it in the photo, but right on the other side of the river was their vault, where the 2 archers were hiding behind a brick wall. after about 15 seconds or so into the skirmish, super stabby guy dropped back and we stupidly rushed him.
personally i severely underestimated the range at which they would be able to shoot, as well as the damage those archers would do. it only took 2 arrows to put me down, but i will admit that my armor wasn't as good as it should have been
we made a lot of retarded mistakes in the battle, and i would have done a lot of things differently if given the chance to do it over, but it is what it is and that's all it is
