This spell pisses me right off

[Asha]

If you move into a room with this fucking spell, you literally can't do anything or you get webbed. You can't even leave the room.
And being a square if you get webbed infront of a pure you're basicly totallyfucked.
I know this log doesn't show time but I'd love to share the experience.
I basicly watched a quarter episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm while waiting for it to break up.

The door suddenly tips on end and flattens like a two-dimensional rendering. It begins spinning faster and faster, as though it were a madly rotating pinwheel. Abruptly, it collapses into a thin, fine line that folds in on itself in segments until it is scarcely more than a black pinhole. The dot of darkness disappears with a near-silent *POP*.

Can't warriors use berserk to break free?

I realize yours is a rogue (or I think it is).

If you have the MIU, could you use a gold wand while webbed to burn it? (Which I *think* also would burn you.) If you got stunned from the burn though, then couldn't you use stunman move to leave the room?

I know when I had my mage up there, I detested the damn webs, which is why I don't even bother with the rift, especially when you spend the majority of your time webbed. The way I recall the the official release docs was if you are passing through the room, you are not supposed to get webbed, but I know that was not the case when I was up there. Maybe that was only in regards to other PC webs?

Just curious.

[Katt]

You can't get a wand out or wave it while webbed.


Passing through rooms will web you. Your best bet is to carry a gold wand and if you step into a room with a web, don't try and leave get rid of the web first.

If you are webbed and become free, remember your wand...I died a few times because I'd become free and freak out and try and run and get caught again resulting in death.

In the barrier I would set a ring at the portal so I always had a safe way to get back fast.

Beserk works nice. Other than that, it is a bitch and didn't seem to get better till my rogue and warrior were up a few levels above the creatures casting the web.

I was an idiot and only mastered tackle and warcry in my warriors younger years so I never used beserk, just had to deal with it cause I was too lazy to go through the pain of trying to master it on barrier creatures. I've seen it work wonders though.

[Asha]

It definately webs you if you so much as move.
I haven't been to OTF since I sold my sorcerer so I'm really looking forward to getting there with my rogue becouse of this spell
Good times.

[Asha]

Hey Katt could I ask you to email me a full log of you hunting OTF with either your rogue (preferable) or your warrior.
Like I said above I've only been there as a pure, then went as a square and almost got completely smashed up.

[Davenshire]

Yeah rogues got hootied on this, and warriors arent far behind. You can say berserk, but berserk costs 40 stamina a pop. great 40 stamina and you broke out of the web....guess what? it still has 3-5 charges.

proceed to watching Curb your enthusiasm.

A few different ways for squares to overcome this. you can

PEER which is slow as hell and gets irksome.

You can toss a fire goo vial.

you can get a cleric to bless a fem gems with untrammel for you.

the untrammel is probably the best route to take.

All in all rogues have gotten the shaft with this and the shadowmastery. :( If your TD is high you tend to avoid them and they seem to not work worth a crap if you are older then the critters, so underhunting is your friend in web areas also.

[Sylvan Dreams]

It definately webs you if you so much as move.

It's not a guarantee that it will web you.

[Asha]

It has every time I've tried to pass. That's more than 10 out of 10 times so far.
Just a bit of an over powered spell imo.

[Kitsun]

I can't even imagine how annoying it is for squares. I think creatures get more use out of this spell than I ever will.

Getting hit is based off a hidden spirit CS warding role. Only way to avoid it really is to increase your TD (I know as a rogue in the rift that's most likely impossible).

I think I've found in the end game, pures totally pwn all.

[Drew]

I think I've found in the end game, pures totally pwn all.

End game = past level 30.

[Asha]

Heh yeah.

[B2]

Clerics and Empaths can make Untrammel dust with alchemy.

They have 5 doses per dust.

The cost is a spiderweb turquoise (or 1200 silvers) to make.

My level 0 no MIU gem mule could unravel my level 41 web, so I don't think MIU or level is a factor.

And no risk of burning yourself!

You gesture.
A thick cloud of wisps gathers around you and quickly spreads to cover much of the surrounding area. The cloud solidifies and resolves into a sticky web.

Looking through the trees here in the outskirts of the forest you can barely make out the grasslands in the distance. You also see a gigantic sticky web, an overgrown path and a trail leading into the woods.

>toss my dust at web
You take a handful of the fine opaline dust, and toss it at a gigantic sticky web!
The webbing covering the area begins to unravel at incredible speed! Soon, all that remains is a cloud of wisps that dissipate harmlessly into the air.

That's very helpful. Thanks a lot.

[Drew]

Wow an actual use for alchemy, nice.
