I basicly had my last character trashed because he kept dying to gaunts when they first came out. It was really sad to throw away that character (300+ hours) but I lost interest in him after he was killed about four times by gaunts. He actually had an awsome background and I roleplayed him to death. So what did I do? I power ranked one up to 40 and began to kill people. I will say this, I gaunted a certian warrior three times and all three times he killed my gaunt really fast. I just wish I knew that this person was doing. Until then, I will continue to use everyone else as test dummies until I figure out the so-called easy way to kill them.
He perhaps my favorite character of all time. He only died to a pk one time before the gaunts. Anyways, he was gaunted and gaunted during the Master Empire war and me being a perfectionist lost interest in him. Plus I knew conjurers were way over powered.
What can I say I learned from all this. I still think nightgaunts suck. Gobal summon is bs. They have been weakened somewhat. You cannot spell them up, you have to remain outside and cannot move into no exit rooms. Other than that, my gaunts are about 75% effective. Of course I do a lot of research on my victiums before I gaunt them. I make sure they are alone and not in cabals. From what I have seen thus far, gaunts are still bs. They can pretty much work on a well-armed rager that is fully prepared. As much as I hate ragers, should gaunt be able to defeat the best warriors in thera one on one? Shug....
