<DIV>Well I finally was able to sign in about 12am and went for alittle exping for 45 min with my guildies. Considering power regen is messed up we perma pulled for 45 minutes so I didn't have a chance to figure out my skills or even respec. After that I did some guildy dueling and it was pretty [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] fun. My record was around .500 but keeping in mind no respec and no time to figure out my class and playing against my server's best, I'll take it. Here is the breakdown.</DIV> <DIV><BR>Vs Koldsteel (Swash. Full fabled minus like 1 jewelery slot) 3-2 me:</DIV> <DIV>Nasty @$$ long range stun. On my successful attempts I went shield + 1H to counteract the fact that he never missed, and started with that stupid stun. RGF was unsuccessful and I got blasted, as was the case when I forgot to put my stance up. Overall Swashes are beastly, but we get enough stuns that if you can survive the initial burst you can take them out.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Vs Melanoma (Warlock. Lots of fables + masters) 1-0 me:</DIV> <DIV>Switched to posion gear and it was lights out. I resisted a few distortions, and he had to stay in range to nuke but the old Yew Bow still hit him. Stun, Frenzy, Raging Blows, was about all she wrote. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Vs KDog (Wizard. See above for getup) 1-0 me:</DIV> <DIV>Through up my defensive stance, switched to cold gear, two resisted ice comets later. Good game. Nastier than a warlock b/c they have some nasty stun.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Vs Voltronn (Bruiser. RGF + Cryptic Metallic Tunic and 2-3 other fables) 1-3 (he got the 3):</DIV> <DIV>Bruisers are nasty. Period. Self heal for like 1k and have lots of heat + crushing + stunning attacks. I respec'd to Crush Resist for tanking and extra HP as well, so we'll see how it goes when I'm bringing about 300 more crushing resist and 500 HP to the table tonight.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Vs Relapse (Warden. RGF + Full Fabled + Invoker + lots of masters) 0-2 (he got the 2):</DIV> <DIV>Tried to 2H him both times, bad idea. His efficiency was insane. Best bet is to stun him at the beggining and pray you can lump enough damage that he can't spam heal enough to save himself. Only 2x toons that I saw kill him was the bruiser after about 3 tries, but the Swash absolutely [Removed for Content] him. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyrate these are just my first happenings. Will post more as time goes, strats, etc. Feel free to post your outcomes/strats. Time to leave work <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>
