Default mending is overpowered!

all those super tanks and invinci monks are using mending, so it must be a good skill, right?

So, I decided to go to Thunderhead Keep and test this leet skill. The mission was surprisingly easy with this build. I finished the mission with my first try, I got 10% morale boost and none of the henchmen died. The only hard part was taking down the 5 groups near Dagnar. My henchmen aggroed both heretic groups near dagnar and 1 other group, so I had to fight 3 groups at the same time!

if you are having problems with this mission, just take mending and go!

next project is to win Hall of Heroes with mending build and henchies


Pic 1, Dagnar left

Pic 2, Necromancer Mursaat Boss almost dead.

Pic 3, Confessor Dorian is coming!

Pic 4, Confessor Dorian is dead, mission complete!

Just because a skill can be used well does not mean it's overpowered. Anyone can do Thunderhead Keep with henchies, if they have any bit of skill and experience.

Of the few overpowered skills in this game, mending is simply not one of them. End of story.

why would I edit my screenshot? there's no reason to do something like that.

when you do Thunderhead Keep mission you always have to kill 6 bosses! I cant even remember when I didnt have 10% boost

the bosses I fought in that run were:

Ulhar Stonehound (the bridge)
Fuury Stonewrath (city)
Dagnar Stonepate (fort)
Boris Hillshaker (fort)
Agyrus the Scoundrel (fort)
Confessor Dorian (fort)

I'm also planning to do this mission with empty skillbar. I'm not going to take any skills not even rez sig, I'll let the henchmen do all the work.

nerfing this would be ridiculous. I bet if u didnt use mending you could still beat it with henchies, just have to take more time and plan things out...

Mending is useless if you keep getting it stripped. HoH and many other mission places, such as Hell's Precipice will have people/enemies stripping your enchantments.

You're looking at it and it says +4, but the horizontal line in the + got cut off, probably because she converted them to JPG.

That anyone taking a thread called 'nerf mending' seriously,even after the OP said it was a joke build,saddens me. Irony is lost on some people...

To nerf Mending would be to essentially remove it from the game alltogether. It's fine how it is now. BTW, Good job on THK... pretty amusing.

Duuuuuuuuude :P what you on about, he has +4 moral and there are 2 bosses before you get to the keep


This is a ss of my attemt with no skills, i was inspired.

I managed to get as far as the warrior boss, but too many came and they killed me, after that it fell apart and the king was killed.

***2x images moved to next post.****

The last ss i took before dying, as you can see i made the mistake of going down the stairs and someone slipped up above me and got the king / i didnt spot that till to late.



and as you can see i have 8+ BEFORE killing the warrior



And this PROVES mending is overpowerd

nerf mending.
