I just kill everything I see along the way with my fists while making sure I stay in combat the whole time, and if thats not enough I find a deer and beat on those, they seem to dodge a lot and give a lot of initiative.

Oh and that was my first time using cleave on something that didn't die in one hit, its not quite as powerful as I expected(it only doubles the damage... well I guess it would kill a lot of players in 1 hit...), but it takes of a huge amount of HHP.

Bah you cant see the damage on youtube, anyways I'm hitting 40/136, and my normal damage with and axe is 7/71

That's nothing. I run from level VIII and IX bears everyday... (I sort of regret choosing this place but it means no one is crazy enough to come looking for me. :P)

But seriously. Good job. How long did it take?

Yeah, that should not be possible :/

Try again without exploiting.
The ones who see things differently.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Well in my opinion running away from an animal is exploiting. Because it's the same as hiding behind a tree shooting a bow. So saving init should not be possible unless you you're surrounded by animals attacking you.

Try again without abusing the absence of pathfinding.

Er I can still just stay in battle using cows/sheep/chickens/rabbits, I'll still be able to do it this way with pathfinding implemented. Heck I could even have a level 1 fox follow me around like a pet.

I don't see how this is much different from how some other games work, a famous example would be FF7 and limit breaks.

I know you can. But i also know i killed bears at 30 marksmanship. Does that seem normal to you? It's the same thing.
It's true you can use rabits and such..but that's still unfair if you'd ask me.
I could get 100 initiative easily, then go kill every bear and return with initiative to spare.

I'd be surprised if you could do this with level 30 UA, you still need to dodge all their hits.
