Curse

I have to say that one of the greatest henchmen EVER is Dunham. Now, before you start flaming about how much he is 'teh suck', lemme explain. I was once in a party full of hench somewhere in the jungle with Dunham included, had just stepped out of a zone, and was in the middle of standing around killing time laughing at Dunham's random constant use of distortion when all of a sudden I got attacked by a pig (warthog) seemingly out of the blue. Then I noticed he got pissed because Dunham had cast empathy on him for seemingly no reason. There were no enemies anywhere nearby, just me, some other hench, Dunham, and the pig. From that moment on I declared to myself as the henchman grouped up and pummeled the helpless empathetic pig like a freshly buggered english stepchild, that Dunham would always hold a special place in my heart. *soft sigh*

Thats pretty much animal abuse on Dunham's part.

kai_razorwind · Dec 11, 2005, 04:02 AM // 04:02

That does indeed prove his usefulness. Now if you start a lil campfire, maybe stefan will skin it, lil thom will eviscerate it and you can roast it and eat!

Yes. Dunham has become pretty useful to me as of late. He has infact became my 3rd defacto henchie after Alesia and Stephan.

Doctor Rhino · Dec 11, 2005, 05:01 AM // 05:01

Dunham likes to cast random spells. But yeah, I always take him now, regardless of mission or place. The fact that he is a hog killer can only raise my respect for him. But yeah, I'd have to say Lina is best. Alesia just tanks.

Sorry, Little Thom doesn't have Eviscerate. But he can Charge! it all you want.

...PETA has been called, and Dunham has been apprehended. We are now staging a sit-down...feel free to join :P

It's sort of sad that you didn't have Orion along to cast one of his well-timed Fire Storms on the piggie. There's nothing like the scent of freshly frying bacon on the battlefield.

(What's sad is that he's better than half the healers out there.)

You sure know a way to a an ingame-mans stomache, Gaile! =)

LOL.
Yes Dunham is rather special.

On a slightly differnt note, its hard to choose between him orion and claude all are equally as silly. Orion seems to cast fire storm after battle, who knows what dunham gets up to and claude... why do you use deathly swarm.... At least he has blood ritual which he decides to cast on you sometimes - least of all when you really need it. Thinking about it Reyna is pretty silly too, apart from her amazing ability to be the last girl standing when it hits the fan.
Shame she doesnt seem to have a signet... (Not at least a magnuum when i last needed her to)

well-timed indeed....
how many times does good ol' orion blast a fireball on corpses?
or lets his firestorm go off the second you put the last arrow back in your quiver...

conclusion: orion couldnt burn a big pile of hay if he would sit in it.

still...

I'll never forgive Claude for casting blood ritual on my warrior... Alesia, Orion and Dunham were running on empty, but apparently Claude thought it was more effective to get me to use my, ahem, numerous and powerful energy-reliant skills.

Uzul · Dec 11, 2005, 02:56 PM // 14:56

well i was thinking of adding claude's ability to ritualise wars and rangers more then monks and eles *cough cough* but then i thought someone else will mention it sooner or later... thanks cjlr ^^

(best thing ever: claude got nailed... but somehow he managed to run up to my ranger, ritual, and die from the next attack... at least i had more then enough energy for revenge and rebirth

)

Racthoh · Dec 11, 2005, 02:57 PM // 14:57

Well the henchmen view you as top priority. Alesia/Mhenlo/Lina will always use Restore Life on you first before any of the other henchmen. Their Ressurection Signets, go to the healers first (anyone with res)

LoL, I just started an ele a week or so ago and everytime I land a nuke as that hits a pile of dead bodies I laugh at myself and tell everyone I pulled an Orion!

Uzul · Dec 11, 2005, 02:59 PM // 14:59

don't we all love our henchmen? i certainly do...

quickmonty · Dec 11, 2005, 03:30 PM // 15:30

Was wondering why Reyna never uses poison unless I'm playing my Ranger and happen to have poison arrow with me?

LOL @ well timed! I guess that under this point of view it would be indeed well timed. Dead pigs can't run

Well, they do usually kill the pigs before they fry em, so maybe Orion's time was appropriate for once.

O.O
