I have played with handicaps multiple times

August 08, 2018 07:29PM
For example, I played a drow axe spec before Dex changes went in. I played a gnome trapper when traps weighed 10 each. I've completed with what people consider to be sub par builds.

But that's a bit different from playing, say, a character with flaws that set you up to be killed regularly. Certain flaws are hugely dangerous to a character. I'm not talking stuff like haemophilia, which I've taken before. I'm talking about the stuff that stops the where command working properly etc. On some builds that's much more forgiving than others. For example, on a bash resistant error with calming, you might well not get slaughtered as a result. But on other combos you are likely to either die repeatedly to bashers catching you with your pants down, or necros and aps doing it.

What do you do when your role idea is mechanically uncompetitive?

daurwyn August 08, 2018 10:11AM

Try to play it thinking I can do a few things to make it competitive. Realize I can’t. Get frustrated. Delete. (n/t)

Is it a PK-focused role?

Java August 08, 2018 10:17AM

Not pk focussed but

daurwyn August 08, 2018 12:17PM

Just play a pking herald.

Spronti August 08, 2018 03:29PM

Can you handle not dominating the PK scene?

Java August 08, 2018 12:25PM

Btw I wouldn't consider gnome warrior to be bad with the right set up

daurwyn August 08, 2018 07:34PM

Gnome warrior can be surprisingly good

Tadam August 09, 2018 04:40AM

Eh, there's two Gnome warriors who've gotten a PBF in the last 10 years with more than 30 PKs.

I'm waiting for someone to do an enlarge using svirf with greeting legacy
