1. Get rid of his stoneskin. It's not contributing as much as his Greater Enliven, Natural Dam Redux, Barrier, or other wandage - but it's one less protection. Stop trying to lightning pillar and be amazed when it doesn't work because he's as prepped as you are.

Like that?
c 'dispel magic' wal
The titanic bellow of a walrus echoes across the water.
The magic of the detect magic spell unravels.
The magic of the giant strength spell unravels.
The magic of the detect invis spell unravels.
The magic of the PASS DOOR is UNAFFECTED
The magic of the fly spell unravels.
A tusked walrus slowly floats to the ground.
The magic of the control translucence spell unravels.
The magic of the HASTE is UNAFFECTED
The magic of the AURA is UNAFFECTED
The magic of the stone skin spell unravels.


2. The walrus moves like shit at great expense. Quicksand drains moves. You do the math.

And he does not need to. As he can make almost ANYTHING run on earth. Same as he does on water.
So your point is..?

3. All shapeshifters are extremely vulnerable to stat maledictions. If you don't want him doing damage, maledict his strength. Maledicting his dex helps too. You'll notice after a few iceneedles, he started fighting much worse than he began. Work on that, and it's easy street. Wounding needles edge really helps with this style of tactics.

Greater enliven of hyena?

Again, like that?

4. Every shifter form has usually an elemental vulnerability. While I can't guarantee the walrus does, mammals tend to be vuln fire and resistant to cold (reptiles get the opposite). They also usually have resistances too. Like resist physical. Figure them out, work around them.

Water forms are different, if you don't know. They are supposed to be limited to rare environments, you know. They are vulnerable, yes. To lightning. IN FUCKING WATER.

And general comment, I don't whine. I couldn't care less. We will see how loud YOU gonna whine next time you meet walrus on earth with char who is not using wands and is not a bard.

Stop beeing douchebag. Just accept it. Water forms should NOT be a combination of defensive + offensive shifter on EARTH!

P.S. May be it is your char, eh?

Holy crap.

Death_Claw 452 May 12, 2008 04:15PM

They can barely move on land. Just crawl past them and leave them there. n/t

lightmage 359 May 12, 2008 05:29AM

Sounds good but

Andriy 398 May 12, 2008 06:49AM

But he cant chase you down when you hit and run retrieve

abernyte 414 May 12, 2008 06:54AM

I just want to see how loud you, guys, will cry

Andriy 363 May 13, 2008 03:23AM

You can't really chase with any form

Dwoggurd 507 May 12, 2008 07:29AM

No way.

cointreau 381 May 12, 2008 02:03PM

Dude

Dwoggurd 414 May 12, 2008 02:09PM

Depends who you're fighting.

cointreau 356 May 12, 2008 02:22PM

I chased you down. But damn daggers! NT

Sam 370 May 12, 2008 10:03AM

I'm affraid your argument just has too many holes in it.

Yhorian(VIP) 453 May 12, 2008 08:33AM

Doesn't matter

Dwoggurd 452 May 12, 2008 06:31AM

Pretty sure the walrus died here... nt

The Forsaken(VIP) 350 May 12, 2008 06:58AM

Still bogus, they're pretty much unbeatable one on one...

Guilo 455 May 12, 2008 06:09AM

I call BS on that one.

Yhorian(VIP) 451 May 12, 2008 06:31AM

Dwoggurd 404 May 12, 2008 07:28AM

Water forms need one perk though. Luck of the draw. n/t

lightmage 342 May 12, 2008 06:15AM

You didn't try to get rid of stoneskin till the end of the first log...
