Why I Love Plate...

[Ralimar]

My first invasion since I started wearing plate, and I'm hooked.

A war griffin is large in size, appears to be of extremely hardy constitution, and is in relatively good shape.
A war griffin could probably wipe the floor with you.

A war griffin swoops down from high overhead!
A war griffin tries to bite you!
AS: +435 vs DS: +288 with AvD: +7 + d100 roll: +42 = +196
... and hits for 21 points of damage!
Minor puncture to the back.

Where did that griffen invade?

[IntegraC]

You do know, it is just a bite attack...

[AnticorRifling]

Hold old is the warrior in questions so that redux can be accounted for in that hit as well...........

[Latrinsorm]

He's got around 4/9 redux. Given he's in full plate, I'm guessing forties. I'm hoping the DS is lower because of MoC, because otherwise it would mean he's wandering around in offensive stance during an invasion.

Bites hit on plate as hard as a maul, so "just a bite attack" is a bit of an understatement.

[AnticorRifling]

Wish my warrior had a 288 DS in offensive stance... Hell I wish Anticor did heh.

[Latrinsorm]

Massies, a statue, and a shield work wonders. ;)

[AnticorRifling]

A shield and massies? I thought you said it was a warrior...

[peam]

Oh snap!

Only time I've been bit by a griffin, in FGB.

Fast slash to your neck exposes your windpipe.
You are stunned for 8 rounds!

Level 32 at the time, in defensive, managed to find the first of the war griffins that arrived. Lucky me. So, when that happened and I was still alive, I was elated. That invasion was at the north gate in the landing. Orcs, Warfies, Arachnids, Banshees... some Troll Kings and Griffins... and then Fuzzy Pink Roltons followed by Fuzzy Pink War Griffins.
