The Weakest Link '09: League of Shadows

[riktikticheck]

i'll sign up for this league to get some practice if i end up in a server league

[nathrakh]

Errr.. Am I blind or something as I can't find the account name/password anywhere. How can I access the character? It's my turn..

[Conundrum]

It should have/will be PM'd to you - check your PMs.

[Grey]

Ack, sorry, seems I missed out on sending you the user/pass, nathrakh. Will send it now!

_Ln_ and riktikticheck added to the league too. Others are welcome to join too

[Grey]

I'm not gonna be too formal about who's turn it is by the way, so if you're within the next few to have a turn and you're around to take it and the others aren't then please feel free to just say here you're taking it and go ahead and play.

[LuciusKain]

I guess I'll grab it now then. Wish me luck.

[Covenant]

Wait! Wait wait wait...

*Logs into spectator account*

*Grabs popcorn*

Okay, you're good.

(Nah, thanks for letting us know first. It's such a hoot watching these!)

[Grey]

Heh, logged in and saw you fighting a troll king with 2 hp left and thought oh well, won't be spectating for long... Managed to scare it off though - well done. Let's hope you last the other 900 turns

Covenant, you should join the IRC channel. It's like MST meets ADOM

Can't remember how to tag a link so ^^

Sorry for a slow, boring watch

Hey LuciusKain -

I watched you playing all the way. That troll king gave me a scare too! I thought it was gonna go like, you just let loose one more bolt as it panics, it shrugs it off, throws a rock at you... you get it But nice that you survived.

Now the criticism. Why on earth don't you use tactics? You meleed monsters you couldn't even scratch - on Normal. Go Berserk, or V. Aggressive if you want shield marks too (which you did seem to want). Worst offenders were things like greater undead and probably that stone statue. You were sniping monsters from a safe distance - on Normal. That's what Berserk was invented for (well, not, but for that kind of archery, it's Berserk all the way) You closed in on melee range for Burning Hands on that freaking Troll King on Normal. Had you switched to Coward, you probably would have gotten off way cheaper. Same with the stone statue, except that you actually needed a prayer there to save your sorry butt. Just a tip: next time you meet one, don't use fire on it.

Other than that, we still love you
