[Hidden Plateau]
A thin rock wall runs northwest to southeast, separating the plateau from the steep cliffs nearby. Flowers of red, orange, yellow, and blue flourish along the base of the mountain, each more vibrant than the last. A small stream flows down from the peaks above, supplying water to the plethora of flora along its banks. You also see the Rogane disk and a lesser minotaur.

Swinging a maul? Thats sick. My freaking handaxe has a 5 sec RT. Then again if I get hit I don’t tear apart like a paper doll.

I usually don't get torn apart that bad, but those greataxes will mess you up. Also, HCP brig isn't that great. I wish hauberk was 190 ranks of armor use

You were wearing HCP brig? Glad I play a pally trained in chain.

Still, crazy comeback.

Congratulations on taking over a minute to kill one creature, and barely surviving the ordeal.

Empaths are definitely capable of wearing Augmented Chain at 110 armor use ranks (101 ranks +9 enhancives). Base hindrance of 12%. If you can get fluidity, you're looking at a base hindrance of 6%. If you're swinging more than you're casting I would highly recommend the armor.

You sure that's the reason for the comment?

I was thinking more like the fact that he's a being a retard for swinging with an empath instead of just using bone shatter from guarded and killing it in 1-2 casts.

:yeahthat:

Don't get me wrong; I think mutant builds are cool. I just think it's silly to take a log of yourself barely scraping by with said mutant build and post it as evidence of your professions awesomeness. :shrug:

However, I will say that regenerate is a pretty cool ability. Of course, warriors would never need bother with anything like that.

There is nothing wrong with swinging with an empath. I use to swing with Zuie, and she did perfectly well. Of course as she got older, I could not stick with the RT with the bigger critters.

I mostly think it's a choice of RP to swing with an empath, and if that's the case well then I'm all for it. Tsalim does pretty damn good, and Medi does as well.
