EVENT: Warriors of Steel - May 25, 2013 - 7PM EST

I'm in, can host if needed, will need some weps tho.

I can Maybe host, but only host. Since i only have 100+ Characters.
And if i'm gonna drop weps. It gotta be on my 410 one

So yeah, You can write me up as host. But only that, unless someone wants to fight an Overleved Lautrec.

Just remembered, I'll be using 2+ builds throughout the FC;

I'll be starting off with this one to get into the feel of people's styles, I'll only wear the DWGR when my opponent does, otherwise I'm going with Leo Ring or Cloranthy Ring.

I'll switch over to this later on when I'm a little more comfortable with fighting. I don't usually duel-wield unless I'm calmed down.


After I get tired of those two I'll just use the random SL 55's that I happen to have saved at the time.

ill go rifter6 ot 7

I have yet to undertand exactly how this will happen, I cannot quite understand it.

I see. Thank you, and other than that just follow the rules right?

Revised it to fit me a little more, though i used shotel, because i wanna use it (Thank Renny for that)

Renny wrote:Issues:

Shotel has no special abilities (shield bypass) in Off-hand.

Looks aren't everything! Remove the Hard Leather, replace Black Leather gloves with Elite Knight and the Hard Leather with something under 5 weight. It bumps it up to 53, which used to be considered necessary, and is still seen as useful.

Well... I will take your advise to heart... I really are very new to building character. I know the basics, nothing more.

Why are elementals looked down upon?

ChillerHR wrote:Why are elementals looked down upon?

Because they allow you to have a high-damage weapon without investing in damage stats. This allows for very low-SL builds and extremely high vit/end builds that are still capable of doing high damage. For this reason they're associated with the Undead Burg griefers and the Giantdads.

Associated with vit builds, but they are pretty weak now.

Ok, critique these builds (Except the Poison based one, that's kinda set in stone) please
Not sure which, but one of these will be what I run on that day:
Iron Man http://mmdks.com/2dcp

Poison Man: http://mmdks.com/2dcq

Axe Man: http://mmdks.com/2dcr

No worries about that here, at least in regards to Lightning. Properly upgraded armor tends to make it less viable.

Your iron man is wearing steel armour, not iron.
Axe man is wearing a havel's ring that doesn't do anything because you're mid-rolling anyway.

I'm sure other people can give more detailed comments though.

Throw on a shield and more poise on Axe Man. The shield can be whatever, use it mainly for getting out of a few attacks/parrying. Use Wolf over Havel or throw on a lot of heavy armor for poise.
And why aren't you using the Greatsword on the Berenike Knight cosplay? Shame on you.

Yup, threw the Wolf Ring and the Grass Shield on the Axe Man, to help round him out.

And I haven't actually gotten around to buiding the B-Knight, That was what I was going to do after I ate COMPLETELY forgot about the Great Sword

We are now at 50 participants and 7 hosts. This is going better than I thought!

There have been a few comments that I want to clarify:

--

Elemental builds are perfectly fine. Bring them on down.

--

It would be great if everyone had 16 STR and 14 DEX in order to use all of the drops, but I am not going to ask people to create new builds for this. The weapon drops were to add a little excitement to the fights. I am assuming everyone will be using their favorite weapons. It will be interesting to see how the fights change with people using the same weapon that might be a little out of their comfort zone.

This is not a new idea, but the idea came to me because Yesuurd and I do this all the time and enjoy it.

--

Since we have some new members participating, here is how it works. In order to participate, just lay your red sign down on the chains where the giant opens the gate at Sen's. The hosts will summon 2 reds. When one dies, the host will someone another to fight the winner. The winner will want to heal between fights. I will have extra humanity and grass if anyone needs any. Stand in front of me and point up for humanity. Point down for grass.

I will randomly be dropping weapons for different fights. I will drop one in front of both players. Pick them up and equip them. That will be your weapon for the fight. You can still use any shield.

That is it. I hope this makes sense to everyone.

Hey Baal, does Moss count as "healing" for us Poison Builds?

I do not think people have an issue with moss. It is healing the status, but not healing your HP.
