6 level 16 mages down EE in Guk?

[Jibartik]

So, I am not familiar with the true dif between a necro and a mage, could 6 level 16 necros not accomplish this?

The EE in lguk is over level 30, so even lifetaps from the necros aren't going to stick (with blue's resist code anyway), and their pets lack a damage shield and the necros can't cast a damage shield. So they'd be a lot worse at it than mages would be.

Makes sense, thanks!

lol is the story true? I would like to know who it was so I could admire their power.

been playing more beta than a cool and normal person would, but i didn't play today

if 6 lv 16 mages did EE then I missed it, not sure if it happened

but that fatty boi does a pretty big aoe nuke so if it did happen, they got pretty lucky. anyway not that big a deal if they did. good for them

edit: wait a minute i may have even been in the group that the op is talking about? im a lv 48 druid. this is a weird thread. if you wanna be mad about something, i soloed the EE as lv 38 druid (and took a screenshot). EE is like a lv 30 or something wizard with zero adds in camp, and good races can walk right up to it without agroing anything except 2 mobs at liveside entrance that can be pulled away. it's an easy kill and will be surprised if it is not achieved on day 3 at the latest

No, a friend told me this morning. He said it was 6 level 16 mages. He said they were on Discord. I never said it was confirmed (read my very first post). I said I heard this from someone. It really wouldn't surprise me though is what makes it crazy.

[bubur]

no it wouldnt surprise me either really. but its not that crazy

6 lv 14-16 mobs that can be replaced from afar can kill a lv 30 wizard who is standing still. to me its believable in classic era

though i am pretty sure it didnt happen

Skorge, I realize you just want things to be classic but do you understand how mages work now? Mage pets chain summoned with damage shields will kill anything. It's the damage shield that is killing the EE. Six necros with DSed pets could do the same pet. Let this go dude.

Chain summon fire pet and let the DS do the work? I remember sometimes long delays after summoning a fire pet before it threw its DS on itself. Sometimes it did it right away, sometimes I had to wait half a minute. That might need looking into too to keep things classic.

True - they don’t immediately cast the DS.

Edit: or at least they shouldn’t be
