The Grey That Bites Back

Clymene · 11-23-2007, 08:05 PM

Hey folks, this video spurred an outrage on my home pvp server, Vox-so I figured i'd let the entire PvP world take a look...

Level 52 Brigand vs. Level 23 Mystic (29 levels above me)

I decided to fight back after being ganked 8 times-due to being exiled.

The outcome may surprise you.

Make sure you click on the 1st video option-enjoy!

ZOMG Mystics are overpowered! NERF THEM!!!!!

Just kidding hehehe... good job.

This mechanic still makes no sense to me. If someone is 20+ levels above you, there should be NO WAY you can beat them unless they are pre-engaged in PvE.

Makes all that hard work to be an 'epic' adventurer mean nothing...

Clearly the brigand has no idea what they're doing since anyone playing the class should be able to afk their way into a string of CA's that wipe out about 4k worth of health and wards on someone 29 levels lower than them.Props to the twink for having excellent spells, gear, and the knowledge to use them in making this fight close... but the brigand needs to seriously learn how to pvp.

I would almost say that fight was set up or the Brig wasnt using a monitor. I've never seen so many auto attacks instead of ca's being used.

I assume that it was either a bot or somebody bought this account and never played eq2 before. During the whole fight I haven't seen him/her use back attacks nor debuff you properly. He/she is pirate specced but haven't seen him/her turn around you even once. Then no stun lock [Removed for Content]? It seems like this person was just clicking buttons randomly. Because there is no way any class even a mystic can survive against a rogue 20 levels higher. Debuffs 20+ levels higher will make your mitigation and resists almost zero.

It's super-great that you are the character that DOESN'T run from fights, even ones that might seeem totally stacked in the other guys favour.It IS amazing how that brig has absolutely no idea however.*wipes coffee from the screen*

O.oyou will obviously always have people that suck so bad a halfassed player of considerable disadvantage in levels and gear can still kill them with ease. It is not a flaw int he game, but rather just [Removed for Content] poor players.

I can't fathom a situation where my gear or level won't win my fights for me. It's absolutely terrifying to have to work hard to beat a grey exile I'm repeatedly griefing.

Fixed.
