"Charge!" all the way.

Thom · Nov 11, 2006, 07:48 AM // 07:48

Troll Ungent since we already have points in Wilderness. We are alreadly elite heavy (7 skills, 2 elites), we need to pass on charge despite the fact it is an awesome skill.

Troll ungent+ cripple means you have a charcter that can solo, which is gold for my style of play.

Thom Bangalter · Nov 11, 2006, 08:24 AM // 08:24

agreed, had bull's charge not come up already I would've taken charge, but since we already have two strong elites, troll it is. Plus, if Apply comes up, we win.

...Apply Poison!

Heheh.

I won't decide on this pack as I'm a bit split on what to choose.

I'd have to say troll unguent. Even without apply, cripple + self-heal means a decent soloing character, or at least someone that can really mess with/slow down 1-2 characters.

Guillaume De Sonoma · Nov 12, 2006, 06:31 AM // 06:31

Troll. We are oversaturated with elites and Crippling shot already sticks us to a ranger, so troll is nice.

LightningHell · Nov 12, 2006, 12:05 PM // 12:05

Drafted cards:
Crippling Shot
Orison of Healing
Signet of Devotion
Executioner's Strike
Distracting Blow
Bull's Charge
Divine Intervention
Troll Unguent

1st pack second pick:
Phyiscal Resistance
Vengeance
Warrior's Cunning
Deflect Arrows
Disciplined Stance
Riposte
Chilblains
Soul Leech

Usually at this stage try to not let anyone else get anything that might benefit them.

Thom Bangalter · Nov 12, 2006, 04:58 PM // 16:58

I'd probably take physical resistance.

around · Nov 12, 2006, 05:05 PM // 17:05

I'd probably go for Soul Leech, because it's devastating if the enemy don't have hex removal.

If this was a magic draft you would be a rare drafter imo. Forcing us to take Another elite slot and spec necromancer doesn't work well for the build as a whole.

I don't know what I take it is primarily trash.

TheOneMephisto · Nov 12, 2006, 06:37 PM // 18:37

I'd probably take disciplined stance.

You can run disciplined stance on like a monk for self-defense (not the best option but...) or it could be run on the cripshot ranger to cover troll or just give some time in a solo setting. In fact, you can basically throw disciplined stance with some attribute points on any non-adrenal character to give it some more survivability.

Well, we need to draft enough skills for 8 characters. I reckon that we only have around 3-4 characters atm.

Thom · Nov 12, 2006, 11:35 PM // 23:35

We only need to draft for 3ish players since we're drafting 16 total cards. Unless you saw, 3 solid non-elite curses you want to get the second time around, you're going to strand us by drafting Soul Leech.

Physical resistance seems like a smart draft.

3 more packs to open~!

Thom Bangalter · Nov 13, 2006, 03:24 AM // 03:24

Soul Leech is a perfectly viable skill to hate draft, and it's a nice pick this late when we won't be seeing anything that great. I just said phys. resistence because I didn't know what soul leech did.

LightningHell · Nov 13, 2006, 07:36 AM // 07:36

Remember, only skills are drafted, and so a warrior can use an elemental weapon.

Drafted cards:
Crippling Shot
Orison of Healing
Signet of Devotion
Executioner's Strike
Distracting Blow
Bull's Charge
Divine Intervention
Troll Unguent
Soul Leech

2nd pack second pick:
Shock Arrow
Lava Arrows
Infuse Condition
Necrotic Traversal
Resilient Weapon
Penetrating Blow
Holy Strike

Woot, Penetrating Blow.

Guillaume De Sonoma · Nov 13, 2006, 07:37 AM // 07:37

Without a question penetrating, compliments executioner's strike well.

Thom Bangalter · Nov 13, 2006, 07:58 AM // 07:58

That one's easy. Give us a head scratcher. Our warrior is shaping up very nicely.

Thom Bangalter · Nov 13, 2006, 08:21 AM // 08:21

ugh. lava font maybe? none of these are going to be worth hate drafting, or worth having.
