I suppose with SKs it isn't as bad though as you can use the will of innoruuk. But basically I think almost everything you have said in this thread has been wrong.

Not really, I just defended the fact that Iksar was an excellent choice for SK.
And frankly once Velious is out, it truely is.

This should be a best of P99 thread.

Yes Oli, it's true, but we've also been gifted with 2 wonderful screenshots of Brutillus' face with interesting angles. Maybe we should post our sexy faces too to enlighten this thread a little more still!

Go Troll [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Iksar regen + Ogre stats!

Raff01, stop talking please.



Yeah so far we have seen :
- Pick DE for racial Hide, when every SK has hide at lv 35 whatever race he is
- Trolls have more INT than Ogres, which is .... false
- BE Greaves are useless, when they're actually the best Kunark armor Greaves...
- Not every SK has a Circlet of Shadows because it has been nerfed and it's very expensive... Uh nope, worth 1k at EC because it's a common drop and won't be nerfed anytime soon

Best thread ever

Oli

I was wrong for troll INT I got no pb with that.
never said BE greaves were useless, said that the clickable 3sec FD was useless in Velious era which is true. As I said, I started playing in the Velious era. Also when I played on live, CoS had been nerfed and pre nerfed one was well over 50k. I didn't know it hadn't been nerfed on this server.

But since this kind of stuff seems to turn you on, in the list you could add :
- Velious will probably never be released on P99

Seems like they're working on it. Just looks like they're struggling with getting all the pieces together with regards to the quests.

Taken from Monk page on wiki

And Troll regen is the same as the above. Basically, if you are a Troll or Iksar, you are running around with permanent Chloroplast post-55.

Rest your head on my 1100+ac shoulder, friend, you can bawl your eyes out.

The guy talking about the uselessness of BE greaves once in velious does have a point tho. With death peace + feign death memmed, you have 2 FD, one that has a 4 sec refresh, so it renders the BE greaves completely useless. The stats are not good on them either.

There is an 8pt differencial when standing in regen between iksar/trolls and the rest of them. Let's not make that racial trait something it isnt. It's nice, but it is nowhere close to how OP stun immunity is. I died many times because I could not get the FD off with 4-5 mobs beating on me and interrupting my 1.5 sec FD cast.

Iksars do have a about 100 less AC than other SKs with similar gear during Kunark, so I would say they probably make the worst SK before velious releases. We do mitigate less, I would love to test it out with another SK on juggs sometimes to see the difference.

The slam ability isnt very usefull now for end game sks with epic cause we either use epic or 1hander + shield so slam doesnt get any use. Once we hit velious and Inny's curse gets replaced, slam will once again have its use and its very nice for interrupting casters. Dont talk about the dps plz, its negligeable.

All in all, race doesn't matter imo. You can have the best gear and be an ogre and still be a baddie, but Ogre and trolls in kunark have the edge for sure if you're into min maxing.

The standing iksar regen and bonus fire demand your attention if you're gonna poop sock your life into a char. Otherwise, go ogre.

[Junkman]

iksar are pretty beast in velious but till then they kinda suck regen is nice tho but the 68% pent sucks lol
