Hmmm... been thinking about the duels (which we'll get in about three years...)
(the /duel type, not the 'ponce about in a quiet bit of emain' type)

most people think of these happening at range 0, or some of the more forward thinking 'max spell range'
(the amount of whines in the VN boards about 'waaah how is a wizard supposed to win!' 'what if someone uses buffs! code it in so that you can't have buffs on when dueling! waaah!')

But I was thinking.... battlefield Camelot start at the round table, start the duel, you have 30 seconds to run away and hide then you hunt each other down

might be a bit big for just 1 on 1... so maybe teams
(cept not sure if you can have more than one duel accepted at once... if not you could have it that players A and B versus C and D, but only A can kill C and only B can kill D... nowhere near as cool though.. tagteam deathmatch!)

That's an idea for daft tasks for promotion 'beat that gimpy mercenary' to get a promotion

bah if i want to win over a troll in duel then i want my pbt, eb and haste on:P

then i can beat the bejesus out of him=)

won't be dueling trolls - but a polearmsman might be an interesting fight

so then peeps can challenge u for the leader title?:P

naw, we want people to have a challenge

Yeah duels between 2 stealthing classes:
They will be never seen again!
Good way to get ride of some nasty guildies.

prepare to be pwned

i would 0wn all 2h tanks:P

cept ones with staves and 32% attack haste shouts ;P

well they aint TANKS tho:P

they r paperwearing sissyboys:P

hrm 2h staves are hard to parry... damn

The trick for a 2H should be to have a dagger as well.
First wield the dagger to kill the protecting shield. It has no use to hit very hard on a protecting bulb. Then wield your 2H. Waiting time for the next shot is not the 5 sec + debuffing and stuff, but only 1.5 sec+debuffing spells.
2 Clean shots should be okay then.

might be doable too... you can hotkey 2h 1h and shield ... so flick from dagger/shield to 2h flick back...

course my merc will butcher second and might beat the shield tanks... (dual wield is nice against pbt and shields)

Will be tough against 2h/polearms though... halved parry

my 3.0 sec staff hits yellows for 150-200 so lets see how many HP u got second: 800 or 900 unbuffed?

with my haste on i swing that in 2.04 secs then factor in my quickness and i am well inside 2 secs almost on the 1.5second hardcap. So i need to get in 5-6 hits. PBT will save u from i think 2 hits before i kill you.

Your debuff is 19% right? well i can purge it anyway and i have high matter resistance so i dont think u will get it off before i interrupt you.

Friar 'should' beat any melee class simply because we are buffed and they are not I suspect versus polearms and mercs it will be 50/50 win tho maybe slightly in Friar's favour

yeah I imagine a friar with buffs and haste will kill any unbuffed tank...

if you get both of them fully buffed the tank will win I think...

by a long shot without haste, quite close with haste...

it also helps if we're all the same level so I'll not be pwning you for a few levels yet

point is that when i say a TANK then i dont mean a healer hybrid=) a tank wears a plate armor=) (speak to the hand because the face wont listen=)

what's your spec second?

mezz jiggs, root him when he purges


send 7 pets run around like a crazed thing

ROFLMAO you wanna do duels in cam ???
fine by me me and stirla will own every one of you ...you think not ??? ok ill tell ya why hehe

3 story and 2 story buildings with blaconies and windows + stealth + a big nasty bow

plink plink duck inside stealth ans relocate


bloody snipers paradise

hehe

alas with patch 1.55 they remove duels from cities... so my plan is foiled.

bah mythic no fun camalot is just a big empty pile of stones with a few merchants and trainers anyway and city fighting would have been soooooooooo funny

the 500 people constantly /dueling pissed off the 500 people playing with spellcraft/alchemy

Pah, with a bit of range you will all die to Isude root/debuff/debuff/debuff/dot/2nd dot/lifedrain (or run then lifedrain)
