In Reply to: Any reason why you did not choose flee/rot instead of a damage sup? I think I would have done that...but I have never run a shaman so have no idea what I am talking about....nt posted by Grallon on June 2, 2000 at 11:03:28:

1) It costs 50 mana, I had 54 at the time.

2) I have no idea what his con is like, but cloud giant con is generally pretty good.

3) I didn't feel it was necessary, what with 3 or 4 plagues and him at writhing. I've faith in my ability to chase.

Though cloud giant con is good, Rager con is often lower, especially for an old vet like Ioanis. (n/t) Proud Blade(VIP) 12:07:45 6/2/2000 (26)

    - His point... or possibly one of them Saerin 08:16:59 6/3/2000 (15)
      - Khiravn's worst enemy was a shaman who he fought constantly. It's not like one wither did that. (n/t) Proud Blade(VIP) 09:56:40 6/3/2000 (0)
      - Rot is also incredibly easy to combat. nt Imbrogno 08:42:21 6/3/2000 (10)
        
        No it isn't. There are ways, but it depends on who you are. A rager with depleted con is in big trouble. (n/t) Proud Blade(VIP) 09:49:41 6/3/2000 (9)
        
        Yes it is Imbrogno 11:11:57 6/3/2000 (8)

        my opinion, not that you asked for one Nepenthe(IMM) 14:50:48 6/3/2000 (3)

        I tell you what, I'll trade cause light/serious/critical and demonfire for magic missile. nt Imbrogno 15:47:03 6/3/2000 (0)
        
        Looking at all of the facts can be fun too Imbrogno 13:21:09 6/3/2000 (0)
      - Get your info straight. Wither decreases lifespan in hours. Rot does not. *smack* n/t Uhhhmmmm 08:24:35 6/3/2000 (2)
        
        My other point still stands. It's weak to rot someone and run off. Clear enough? (n/t) Saerin 08:51:27 6/3/2000 (1)
        
        I think I'd rather have them run off, that way I can run some place safe and be sure to get my gear back at the very least. NT Smirk 09:07:30 6/3/2000 (0)
  - Don't you dare think for a moment that Arlian wouldn't flee/sleep/fiend me in a heartbeat. nt Imbrogno 16:04:44 6/2/2000 (5)
    - Only in your mind does flee/fiend equate to rot/recall. The only purpose of the 2nd is to easily con kill someone. n/t Khiravn 17:14:35 6/2/2000 (4)
      - One word: Power Word Kill. Game, Set, Match. nt Grallon 11:07:26 6/7/2000 (0)
      - and to me that's a beautiful thing. I hate ragers ooc and ic. nt Imbrogno 17:51:39 6/2/2000 (2)

- All very true, but from this side of the fence it seems like con quests are handed out like candy. Though I know that isn't the case, it seems that way :) nt Imbrogno 12:10:58 6/2/2000 (1)
  - Or to put it more simply, and in a less inflammatory fashion, it's smart not to make assumptions about the con of ragers. nt Imbrogno 12:13:28 6/2/2000 (0)
