So your a 15+ warrior in hobgoblins?

No, he's a Burghal Gnome, 4 trains.

[AestheticDeath]

how are you berserking?

[AestheticDeath]

wtf berserk is a cman too?

[Widgets]

how are you berserking?

CMANs.

[Izzy]

wtf berserk is a cman too?

...

It was on the cman list from the getgo. Lots of guild skills share a cman counterpart. (feint, spin attack, sweep, cheapshots, to name a few)

[AestheticDeath]

I don't pay much attention to the classes that suck. <shrug>

Sucks that the guilds got raped like that though.

[CrystalTears]

Sucks that the guilds got raped like that though.
/agreed

[NocturnalRob]

Sucks that the guilds got raped like that though.

yeah, but the mastered guild skills are better than cmans!

and ours are free!!

goddamnit...

[Sylvan Dreams]

goddamnit...

If by free you mean spending hours and hours which you could have spent doing something more fun.

At least they didn't remove the skills from the guild entirely, which was something that they had considered doing. I think they avoided doing so because it would have been impossible to compensate players for their time spent doing skills the guild way.

[TheEschaton]

My Master of Arms would have been pissed had they done that. Guild-mastered berserking and not spending points on things that are free ftw.

[Asha]

Yeah, it's just a shame the profession is shit.

[NocturnalRob]

what's more fun than spending your time self-stunning...by yourself...all alone...?

[CrystalTears]

Isn't that what Backlash does on a daily basis?

[NocturnalRob]

i don't want to point fingers or name names...

[Gnoll Lair, Underground Lake]
This area is by the shore of an underground lake. Dim light comes from some of the phosporescent lichen here. As you look across the lake you notice a slight current seems to flow through it, possibly feeding to the Locksmehr River at some point. Some discarded fishing tools and a few fish remains lie on the shore. The shore continues to the east. To the south you see a smaller tunnel heading off from this massive chamber. You also see a cave gnome, a cave gnoll, a simple haon strongbox, a wooden shield, some light leather, a cudgel, a cudgel and a wooden shield.
