*** Chat Log Closed: Sat Jul 12 03:31:52 2003

The Inf was Yazuka, RR5, 750k RPs.. He seemed to whiff/fumble alittle to much for his RR eh?

And Race was the scout i'm questioning, 2m RP's, guess thats puts him at RR7... Mammah didn't even hit me as hard as this guy did, and he was rr8... Mammah would do 20 - 30 melee damage.. I don't get it?

[Lifesbane]

was this in melee or with his bow? looks like he slammed you then switched to his bow....so he's probably fully buffed, using slash arrows (against which your armor has a big penatly) might have been a crit shot (if not he probably got a good critcal hit)....336 is perfectly reasonable

[Masta]

The 336 was from a 1H'er slash weapon from sidi, 4.4spd weapon, i just found that out. In that case i have a 27% resist to slash, but my armor is weak to it. That hit is just to weird, i've never seen anything like it. He would have had to cap melee damage than get a 50% crit to get numbers up that high.

[Amberryl]

some scouts do that i heard... its like an infilitrator with a sheild...

[Kirin]

wtf? theres no fing ways a scout hit you for 360 with a meelee weapon, even if he had 50 slash and an mp Sced weapon with mop 5

[Zutroy]

Soul Anchor from Sidi hits really hard due to its slow speed. If the scout was RR7, had high slash spec and was in full SC, I wouldn't be suprised at the damage with a lucky crit. IIRC, the albs still have all 3 strength relics on MLF right? Anyway, it's not too uncommon... I seem to recall some minstrels bragging about hitting for 300+ per hit using amy slash with it on the alb/rogue boards.

I dunno, if it was me, I'd be more upset that an inf was hitting me for over 200 with stilettos. It looked like he was using garrote too. I mean, you have like 36% thrust resist + those are the faster lvl 51 crafted thrusters.

[Masta]

I can understand

[03:31:31] Yazuka attacks you with his stiletto!
[03:31:31] You are hit for 196 damage.

Because he probally hit for 150ish and got a nice crit, plus he whiffed/fumbled worse than any inf i've ever fought.

What i'll NEVER understand is that 336 hit by a scout.

And if you go back and look over the logs, almost every hit had to be a 50% crit, that means the albs had to roll PERFECTLY on all of their damage checks, and to boot the inf swung at cap speed, and the scout swung at 2.0 seconds and landed a 336 hit on me.. Hrmmmm..

Edit - Yeah the Albs still have the STR relics on MLF too, btw.

(Edited by Masta at 9:40 pm on July 12, 2003)

[Lifesbane]

another thing is the scout could have been speed debuffed, which would cause his sword to hit harder (dps and all)....given a very well buffed high RR scout with high spec in a damage type your vulnerable to, a very slow weapon, all the str relics, and a good crit...it doesnt seem too unreasonable. if it was a buffless RR 2 thrust scout i would be a little more upset

[Zutroy]

Look at it this way, he could have pulled his bow out and crit shot you for 1000+

[Masta]

He definatly wasn't attack speed debuffed, i tried to perf the inf and he came out of no where and slammed me. I was standing at the mg for 3 mins watching hibs run threw too, i didn't see him get uncovered, and there wasn't any spam involving those 2, oh well, i'm gonna go buy TS and gank his sorry little ass everytime i see him.

And there was a scout who would sit and mmg and TS stealthers, slam them, and pull out her bow and 2 shot them :/

[Kirin]

Woot, go scouts! Slam those Sbs so i can perf em (with my african lag it takes me about 5 seconds to set up a perf)

[Lifesbane]

there were assasins that had see hidden and could see scouts at clip range while they were stealthed untill last patch..then they'd walk up and perf me. TS every half hour is not overpowered by any means. how about not camping the milegates? or my favorite "run with a group like everybody else in the game"

[Nari]

LOL, go scouts ...
