Well I figured I'd make a thread to show the stuff I've seen so far. I'll add stuff as I find it

Firstly - my Warrior - Luthrin Whisperwind. I'm happy with the way her armour dyed (Droknar Knights, died in Blue/Green mix) although I was hoping to have more Teal than Blue - so might stick another layer of Green on her sometime.

Secondly - my tests with Feast of Corruption - I just couldn't get mobs to pack together well enough, but I still like the line of healing above my name

Finally, well for now anyway - a Necromancer I was playing with - I've not seen as many Horrors kept alive as this .. ever - if someone can beat it, I'd love to see it

Note to those bone horror armies...Mmmmmm smiters...

Nightsorrow · Jul 18, 2005, 01:26 PM // 13:26

Those minions ... that's extreme O_o How many Necromancers did they have?

lol. that is a nice army.

dargon · Jul 18, 2005, 06:01 PM // 18:01

heh, I love going against a necro army like that. Kill the necro at range, watch the army eat it's parents

Elena · Jul 18, 2005, 06:17 PM // 18:17

yea i like how when you kill the boss necro the horrors or minions or whatever was summoned attacks whatever it wants

Nightsorrow · Jul 18, 2005, 06:53 PM // 18:53

.. or just stands there. Still, if there were multiple necromancers in the team, I assume at least one of them had Verata's Aura so that in the event of one necro dying - no mass rebellion could take place

Edge of Extinction may be another point tho .... Especially considering there are enough Minions there to constitute calling them a species.

Feli · Jul 18, 2005, 06:54 PM // 18:54

Hehe, i've pulled this tactic with some of my former guildies in team arenas. We had one mesmer who kept on killing himself with Blood Rituals and Illusion of Weakness. he was stuffed full on super runes and the funny thing was... as soon as he was at -45 Moral he was at negative hitpoints -> revive -> dead -> revive -> dead.

Well, it sure was fun to do but people where constantly calling us cheaters, exploiters and stuff like that while they watched us creating a huge army. It usually took them about 4-5 Minutes until they finally realized they should kill us or get steamrolled.

Nightsorrow · Jul 24, 2005, 07:22 PM // 19:22

Well, here's an update - 3 more screens of mine.

First one is from a Fissure run - I just thought it looked pretty cool (probably nothing new to most people) - Me and one of the Monks proceded to spend 15 minutes arguing that we both wanted one as a Pet, eventually he conceded that I could have it ... only I forgot to bring my "Signet of CharmingMassiveIlltemperedZombieDragonsThatAreTryi ngToEatYou" ... yes I was tired at the time.

Second one is my new 15k Necrotic on my Necromancer

Dyed in Blue/Green mix, although it doesn't look like there's any blue in it at all. Does anyone have a picture of 15k Necrotic dyed JUST Green for comparison?

Finally - speaks for itself .. I nearly cried

One problem with those minions, at least the one time I faced an enemy team using it, was that the horrors were pushovers. They were doing 0 damage on my warrior and was thinking to myself "Wow, those necros gave themselves a 60% dp to do this to me?".

Also... ouch, losing a superior vigor...

Nightsorrow · Jul 24, 2005, 07:40 PM // 19:40

Actually the Necro would only have 15% DP. If the revives were made using either Vengeance or Unyielding Aura - they don't incur a DP.

XxArsenykxX · Jul 24, 2005, 07:58 PM // 19:58

Wow I feel ashamed but I laughed pretty hard when I saw you lost that superior vigor. But that sucks really bad, I'm so sorry. And is it even possible to tame a dragon like that...<newb question I know I am>

Nightsorrow · Jul 25, 2005, 10:46 AM // 10:46

Hmph, always people around to laugh at the misfortune of others - ah well, c'est la vie!

And lol no, you can't tame a Dragon :P
Well, unless they implement a "Signet of CharmingMassiveIlltemperedZombieDragonsThatAreTryi ngToEatYou"

SilverLight · Jul 26, 2005, 01:08 PM // 13:08

why necrotic! 15k bonelace is much better

btw where can i get the skill feast of corruption?

Nightsorrow · Jul 26, 2005, 02:47 PM // 14:47

I've never been a big fan of bonelance - I saw the 15 necrotic and just knew I HAD to get it. +the extra 10 armour is nice.

Feast of Corruption is one bitch of a skill to get. You need to go all the way through Snake Dance (took me ~hour and a half) into Dreadnoughts Drift. A Wyrm appears in the furthest southeast corner of that area - Maw the Mountain Heart, he has it.

i was proud of my mini army of fiends. lol. i like the way they wag their tails lol

Alathys Tylderaan · Jul 26, 2005, 03:45 PM // 15:45

Got another silly screenshot for you.. you thought bone armies were bad?

here's yellow team's Spirit army:

Spirit Spam dont we love it?

I protected their individual identities, but the guild tag remains. My computer chugged for the first time ever when we ended up fighting them. They crawled closer to our base laying more and more.

Nightsorrow · Jul 26, 2005, 09:40 PM // 21:40

Crazy with the spirits, but what exactly is the benefit to having that many duplicates of them?
