The paragon has a skill that makes attacks un blockable or evadable for 10 seconds...

I can see it now....

Paragon throws up shout

3...2...1....Boom.....infuser is dead....GG

OR....

You are holding halls...your ghost is dead...but they have n't capped yet...

"INTURRUPT THE GHOST!!!!'

"I can't, he has ageis+ guardian + sod, we are fkd!"

"No prob..Paragon to teh rescue! I have leet chant skills"

*paragon throws up the chant, ranger uses savage shot, teh day is saved tahnks to 'teh paragon'"

Sounds leet? ha

Btw...teh skill is in one of teh pre builds if you wanna read it....ill look for it later....its almost 6am...ug

Well rangers had seeking arrows, and warriors had warrior cunning.

These type of skills isn't very new.

Sister Brianne · Jul 28, 2006, 01:13 PM // 13:13

However, these things cast instantly, and can be stacked on read teh wind or what not.

Wariors cunning is only melee.

personally I have the feeling that anet really needs to fix some of the new skills.. they simply look overpowered.. Enchantment-like skills that are UNstrippable (or it seems so), and a shitload of skills that seem would enhance a lot of the skills that were already proven overpowered and were nerfed.

probably this was the idea behind the preview weekend anyway

PS i see the new IWAY forming btw.. I can see what the reactions gonna be, just look at what OoA got..

Sister Brianne · Jul 28, 2006, 02:06 PM // 14:06

The paragon could really buff many aspects of teh game....maybe too much....we will see I guess...

bcelmo · Jul 28, 2006, 03:05 PM // 15:05

i can see the OOA necro being replaced by a Avatar of Grenth dervish ... more spike damage, more pressure damage, no more enchantments FTW
I love it when overpowered builds pop-up, it forces the players to adopt their strategies and create more builds against that.

I have been playing ra and i noticed tah tgrenith is owning boon prot monks...which makes sence...

Another good observation taht i made is that just because tehre is now a Bl premade monk, everyone thinks tehy know how to play it...they don't...

Slit Wrists · Jul 28, 2006, 03:47 PM // 15:47

Btw, what's the reload of that skill ?

Chris Almighty · Jul 28, 2006, 05:12 PM // 17:12

its an adenaline skill slit wrists. 6 hits.

and its not overpowered cuz its the NEXT attack that cant be blocked or evaded, not all.

Sister Brianne · Jul 28, 2006, 05:28 PM // 17:28

Which is why a spike or ghost interuption would be a great application of it.

B Ephekt · Jul 28, 2006, 10:38 PM // 22:38

Seeking Arrows is still better...

JeremyC1234 · Jul 29, 2006, 04:05 AM // 04:05

yea these new spear chuckers are pretty hard to fight in tombs. there is a few things to prevent them.

#1. Blind Flash spammer
#2. new skill "Incoming" (havnt tested it just thought about it)
#3. "Shields up"

These are common sense just throwing some ideas in i thought about.

wow, you prevented a possible massive panic and whining.

I <3 tomcruisejr. I guess that would be connor, not suri, since suri is a girl.

chardy · Jul 29, 2006, 08:33 AM // 08:33

You obviously don't understand why OoA is broken.

Avatar of Grenth lets your attacks ignore enchantments for about 40% of the time (recharge)

OoA lets every brain-damaged IWAYer to hack through enchantments constantly.

Avatar of Grenth is slightly better than dark apostasy, which still places it firmly in the "garbage" category.

As mentioned it makes the NEXT attack skill in next 10 sec nonblockable. The thing that you need to be worried about with paragon when it comes to combination with ranger spike is anthem of envy. Something tells me it applies to both shots of dual shot. That could be +40 damage on those shots easily(at least on those shots that hit the target while it is still over 50%). Add to that, that paragon himself can do his own spike with spear, I think he even has deepwound that rspike otherwise lacks(unless they have PP+SD mesmer in there too).

Brianne, why do you say "teh" so much?

Can't wait to test out the Paragon possibilities, though. <3 R-Spike

I felt an overwhelming sense of dread trying to read through the poor grammar. Does that count?
