zerkers

[tass]

ok i just came back after a while of leaving my zerker to play other chars. i come back and start to play him some more cause he's the only tank i got. so my question is why cant he land hits on stuff? his slashing is maxed out for his sword he has great stats everything where it should be all adept 1 spells and yet as i hit my spell buttons i see miss. miss miss? in the end the only thing that has a decent shot is my sword which thankfully i spent the cash on fabled to hit higher. a grp of 3 arrow down lv 32 orcs beat the hell outa my zerker in all his plate glory while i just swung happily away as I watched there evil dots stack and stack as they dodged my skills. [Removed for Content] is there mayhaps some way of attacking the enemy so maby some of my spells do hit the enemy or are zerkers just a [Removed for Content] cripple that needs to get into a grp for debuffs? my wizard at that lv could have wiped that grp even with them beating on him.<div></div>

Were you in defensive stance that lowers your attack skills?<div></div>

<div></div>A LOT of mobs now riposte, parry, dodge, block, ect more frequently than before.  I've noticed it a lot in KoS

[Baeel]

What was your level compared to the mobs?  This has a lot to do with hits and misses.  Also as the previous poster said lots of parryies since kos came out.  At lvl 65 fighting a lvl 63 one arrow down mob I will miss almost half of my swings with a maxed our skill bar.<div></div>

the mob was 3 arrows down and 4 lvs lower. the fight lasted a bit because of my armor but they beat the bejesus outa me with there multuiple dots and dodging.<div></div>

<div></div><p>At first I thought you were fighing orange mobs or something, but wow, blues and greens?</p><p>I got no idea, I fight three blue mobs all ^ and i beat the heck out of them.  Green ^^^ not too hard either. </p><p>Three down arrows?? I can stand there for 30 minutes and not die. </p><p>We are not [Removed for Content], you gotta be missing something somewhere.  Maybe  you are in offensive stance with dual wield or something.  I solo best even with sword and board, all defensive.  Penalties only come with auto attacks, CA still work the way they are designed. </p><p>Find some solo green mobs and work it out, I am sure you will figure it out, don't get too discouraged, its gotta be something.</p>

<P>Impossible to believe. I am level 35 serker here, I can battle with level 36-37 yellow con solo mobs (no arrows down) without my hp dropping and still manage to kill them fast.</P> <P>However, it is a different story with orange cons. I don't know why, but they seem to parry 90% of my attacks and I always ended up getting killed.</P> <P>I can also kill upto level 29+++ heroics without much of a problem solo.</P> <P>Could be a bug?</P><p>Message Edited by Yodaya on <span class=date_text>04-11-2006</span> <span class=time_text>11:58 AM</span>

<P>This is a long shot, but you mentioned that you came back after a long break.  Did you reset your hotbars to take account of the CA revamp after LU whatever it was?  As I said this is a long shot and I am sure you did, but just in case it might pay to have a look.  If you haven't then virtually none of your CA's would be working, nor would most of your buffs, making you more susceptible to being hit.</P> <P>I know that when I came back after a long hiatus I had to start my hotbars from scratch.</P> <P>Shahut  54 zerker  <STRIKE>Lavastorm</STRIKE> Nektulos</P>
