I feel it nessacary to defend Stephan. You HUMANS find it absolutley nessecary to constantly bitch at us on quests like Altheas Ashes leaving from Pikens Square. Ok, I may have had quite a bit of Ale (in real henchman life) before posting this but......... **** you!!! thats right **** you Humans!!! Pikens square??? The 3 of us and you??? What are you smoking???? PLEASE give me some of that Hobbit Leaf and all this **** will be over. Pikens Square, did you even LOOK at the radar??? Tell you what you grab one other, prefferabbly two, were thinking, of your human friends....then double back from Yaks Bend, and THEN will think ( maybe if you get a note from everyone in line) and will do the quest with you. Dont blame Stephan for your impulses, you all make me want to run into a wall. Sick.

yes most players suck, that much is true. however, henchmen suck even more than the sucky players

it's a lose/lose situation all around

DavenXion · May 25, 2005, 02:51 PM // 14:51

Stephan, I do team up with you from time to time and I have no qualms about your strategy of running into aggro everyonce in awhile. We're the meatheads we're susposted to be attacked, 's why we don't wear cloth armor or robes of "cut me deep".

I just wanted to ask you though...what do you buy with all the uber cool lewt you get? I mean you get an equal amount of gold as a human player, but I always see you in that same dull grey full chain mail. I mean since I've first met you I've changed armor four or five times not to mention the plethera of different colors I've dye it in the past month. And what about all those awsome runes I know you're lewting from time to time? I mean a LOT of humans take you farming so I'm sure you've got like 20 superior runes of Vigor by now. Come on, hook me up?

With these henchmen mercenaries, you get what you pay for.

DrSLUGFly · May 25, 2005, 02:53 PM // 14:53

Okay... I think this has gone far enough...

I really need to get serious now...

How do you run through cliffs? Are you guys hacking? I'm tempted to report the lot of you (well, Stefan and Orion since you're the only ones who do it) but truth be known I really do appreciate the fact that you'll come along on pretty much any mission regardless of my class or skill level... I'd hate to see you guys get banned...

But seriously, how do you do it?

She is by far, the WORST healer imaginable. They really, really, really need to program her AI to not attack. She takes agro like it's her J-O-B.

Here's how it goes when I stick my N/Mo on protection skills:
1. Put life bond on Steffan.
2. Put life bond on Little Thom
3. Throw aegis up on self.
4. Run into the fight to initiate battle.
5. Panic because Alesia has also run into battle attacking everything she can.
6. Put life bond on Alesia. Put healing breeze on Alesia.

It is NOT my fault that you run out of my range, and do you know how difficult it is to find time to get more of my own skills when you humans are always, "Come on, do that later, I need you now!" I'd have better chances of survival if you just let me do some of my own missions, but nooooo... you ALWAYS have to be first, like you're more important or something.

Oh yeah. And find a better way of initiating battle instead of always soaking up my energy, you sponge!

You mean like flirting with the pig farmer while we're all out getting owned by Gypsy Ettins? I won't ever forget that... I hope you got some pork out of it at least.

Actually I sometimes prefer her over the boys. On the Althea's Ashes mission I deliberately took Reyna over Stephan due to Stephan's tendancy to run out and agro everything at once.

Oh yeah, I'm with you on that!

Sorry Orion. DUDE you can't throw a firestorm into a mob before I have to make my first attack to save your life. I mean I am calling the target...WAKE UP MAN! No wonder you are ALWAYS the first to die. Must be "red shirt" syndrome.

I started taking Reyna over Orion and got much farther without him. Stephan's okay, I cover his back..but Alesia, can we talk?

That is just so wrong. I was not flirting; I was gathering information about a local quest that would unlock a skill for me. See? In my efforts to improve myself I am once again misunderstood.

Humans are soooo selfish.

I don't know... I'm feeling fragile and unappreciated right now. I almost wish Stephan hadn't told me about this thread. Do you know how difficult it is to have to deal with so many of you every single day, 24/7, never a break or word of thanks... and most of you will blame us for EVERY little thing that goes wrong.

If I heal you and some monster starts beating on me, you have a problem with me. If I fight instead, you have a problem with me. If I wait for you to lead, you inevitably do something stupid that gets me in a threat circle, and is it my fault the monsters know I'm squishy?

Oh, and what's with the loot hogging? Do you know how long I have to wait to see "XXX reserved for Alesia"? Freaking FOREVER.

Still want to talk?

Phoenix Denfer · May 25, 2005, 03:59 PM // 15:59

*hands Alesia a tissue*

There there girl...these forums are rough on anyone, but I admire the way you came out and defended yourself when called out like this.

But really.. how in the name of Dwayna do you get UNDER the resurrection shrine like that? I mean we had to go out of the portal and come back in to get you out of there and then all the bad guys we had killed re spawned and it was "rinse and repeat" ALL OVER AGAIN.

And don't you even say I don't defend you, I left Stephan all by himself just to go back and get that axe fiend off your white robes. sheeesh...

Frankly as far as loot hogging goes..you can HAVE the focus items that requilre 5 healing prayers..I'm a W/El.. lot of good that does me...

Alzbeta · May 25, 2005, 04:05 PM // 16:05

Orion, even in your admittedly drunken stupor, I still have good luck with you. Thanks for always knowing when to cast Fire Storm and watch the carnage. Reyna, you're rather helpful, except when you get overly interested in reading signposts and forget to follow me. Stephan and Alesia, both of you need to work on your teamwork skills. Really.

Thanks... that means a lot to me. I'm not normally one to say much... you may have noticed...

But really we've all had a trying time with some of these groups and I just had to say something.

I swear I lagged right into it... I have no idea. I have a really great comp but occasionally my ISP seems to get epilepsy or something. Like I'll die and occasionally some human will res me and then I'll be frozen and can't move... it's so weird, I hate it.

Yeah, well... by the time I ever get a drop, it's normally some dumb white sword or an Air Wand... that helps me soooo much... and no one ever, ever offers to trade!

But thanks... you seem really cool. If you ever need a healer again, don't forget to send me an invite.

Ninna · May 25, 2005, 04:16 PM // 16:16

or how about that rez trick?

when whole party wipes and somehow you rez where you died

while the rest of the party is rezzed near the zone in

Look who's talking, Ms. "I have soooo much more energy than you but can't ever be bothered to purge condition on anyone but myself in spite of the fact that my henchmen are dying too quickly for the healer to keep them healed..."

Hey now! I'm usually the one rezzing your little white-clad bee-hind, missy. But you're right. I should be more appreciative. After all, sometimes I leave one of the others behind, but I always choose you.

(As an aside, perhaps Stephan is irritated at the derogatory comments about him, so he told you about this thread to throw you to the wolves instead? Warriors can be very self-serving like that.)

...mwahahaha.

Mystical · May 25, 2005, 05:06 PM // 17:06

LOL. That's all I got to say; just LOL.

On another note, I just want to thank you, Alesia, for away standing near to me in the heat of battle. As you can see on the left, I'm a Ranger and usually pretty damn far from battle, but not far enough to be out of spell range. Let the meat sheilds take the damage.

I do want to know, however, why you have no healing priority! Sure we can let Stefan and Thom take the damage and laugh, but we need them alive in the end! Don't heal me when I've got a splinter of health gone and Thom nearly dead and poisoned!

Alesia {Healer Henchman} · May 25, 2005, 05:12 PM // 17:12

Stephan wouldn't! Would he...?

HH-, normally if I let a human keep any damage the complaints are off the chart... the rest of the henchies are all "what can you do, might as well heal them before they start whining again..." so at least they're okay about dying. But you humans really are bad about it.

Prince Rurik · May 25, 2005, 05:48 PM // 17:48

Humans aren't stupid Stephan, they're just cowards. They don't seem to understand that in the heat of battle you must always be moving - push them back, make them reel! There's a psychological advantage to be had in catching them off guard, and I have won many a battle through such tactics. My father, the lazy old tyrant, would probably approve of the "caution" that these pathetic folks display, but not I. Oh, would that it was not prophesised that I must always be accompanied by nitwits.

Have you not seen the mangy curs tremble at my yell, "For Ascalon!"? Can you not feel the bits pulsing in your code? Stephan, Orion, Alesia; come with me, we can defend our beloved kingdom ourselves, hurling the challenge back in the muzzles of these fell creatures!
