What was your unarmed?Sevenless wrote:You guys think the run 3 ants are bad eh? I just found... well... they moved at run 4. Cliff didn't save me, and I had a big enough hive following that each one got a hit off and killed me outright from 94hhp.
RIP Minipig you'll be missed. Never thought that'd I'd be the one dying to ants XD Don't risk hills with more than 4 ants around them is the takeaway from this one.
What I do, is make sure to pick the slower ants ant hill then run away as fast as I can. Get them to follow. Take a drink, then run back and raid again then run away again to get the ants even farther away, then sprint all the way back and raid the hill.
That timer with the Ant Hill. Is that how long you have to raid the hill? That's the only reason I've been doing it this way. If I can drag the ants waaaay aways without having to worry about a time then thats pretty good and I'll change my strategy.

You mean that some of the ants are supposed to have high speed? Will you introduce leeches again?jorb wrote:Working as intended!
Btw, cool update, it's a shame I can't afford to pay for it.

How do you know before raiding if there is a ant on EPO in the group ?
Cause I gave up raiding ants after a severe KO.

Re: Murder ants confirmed: IE Sev dies like a nub
With 5 unarmed you can just melee the ants if you know what you're doing. Check out this tutorial for how the combat works. Basically, you make sure you have a fitting block (that is, Sidestep or Watch Its Moves) set up whenever you touch the ants and you'll receive no damage. Be sure to walk away to set up your block whenever you are hit because it destroys your block.
If done right, you'll receive no damage at all. Blocks can be set up from range. Once you unlock Watch Its Move, you can have Sidestep and Watch Its Moves set at the same time to have a buffer for two attacks. Once you reach 15 AGI (apparently) your cooldown should be shorter than the ants and you can fight them without moving.
It's a lot faster than killing ants used to be in old Haven, especially once you get used to it.

Re: Murder ants confirmed: IE Sev dies like a nub
In the previous haven, fighting casually was something I frowned upon heavily due to increasing the chance you'd fight back intruders without proper preparation. I was thoroughly testing the non-combat stuff before getting started on that.VDZ wrote:With 5 unarmed you can just melee the ants if you know what you're doing.

Looks like I payed the price for that one
