Good fights Thaurdruk, I have a question.

[Rizwan]

Does Cowl of terror or w/e that shout is do anything usefull? and how did you lose even after you disarmed me for 10 seconds? I was surprised

[Dagam]

How does being disarmed hurt you as a mage?

lol, meh -22 intel at least (maybe -28 if wands also gets disarmed).

[Av]

Does Cowl of terror

Do you mean Piercing Howl, Aoe Daze?
If so, self explanatory what it does =]

[Rizwan]

I was playing as "Ariesboo," sorry didn't make it clear in my first post. Just test driving his character before the last hours of closed beta and had lots of great fights with the nurfed guys near the RR graveyard. And yeah thats what it was Av, I'm pretty new to the warrior and was checking out their talents and haven't seen any warrior use it.

The one fight where I successfully disarmed your character I fumbled through my hot keyed stances. I went into berserker stance after the disarm then back to defensive then back to battle stance and lost the rage needed for my initial mortal strike so I demoralized instead.

The fight riz won at the start I was wearing my rogue 1on1 gear and didn't realize it. I changed helms Eye of rend to Helm of Gyth and legs and ring and beat your warrior 2 times in a row with 2500 hp's left over each time.

The 2on2 with me and scorch we basically rolled the mage each time and took care of your warrior afterwards. But during the last fight again after we beat the mage after 1 2 hits I basically 1on1 your warrior again with the same outcome your warrior losing.

Over all I won 2 3 more of the 1on1’s I didn’t really keep track since it was a (friendly) 1on1 meaning I wasn’t going to run to a board posting my victories or defeats hopefully your getting what I mean by this :o

Further more my hotkeys are Number Pad based. 4 5 6 are defensive, battle, berserker, stances. 1 2 3 are Demoralizing, Battle, Intimidating, Shouts. The 3rd fight where I lost I didn't have the Number Lock key "enabled" this disabled all my hotkeys. So for the start of the fight I was fumbling even harder resulting in the defeat. Also during this fight I took the XP hit before hand from the graveyard and forgot to get full HP’s before I started the fight so I stopped fighting half way through the fight expecting riz to do so as well but he just finished me off.

Don’t take what I’m putting above as excuses it is just what happened during the fights that I lost.

I lost 3 fight and I'm not making any excuses each time they where bone head mistakes and entirely my fault with nobody else to blame but me. But for you to come on these boards and to hide your statement as a question instead of what it is.. A "smartass insult" then I’ll say every fight after I stopped fumbling I beat your warrior with an average of 2000 hp's left each time.

Further more to me 1on1’s mean nothing as far as pvp is concerned. If you happen to beat someone in a 1on1 does that make you good where it counts? Do you think you can find 4 partners and come beat my 5 man team in arena pvp? Do you think you will win in battlegrounds?

You posting about this 1on1 is irrelevant since you had nothing to do with it and it is unfortunate because me and riz where having a good time yet you manage to turn this into a flame on our boards.



And your lvl 60 warrior you should have an idea of what piercing howl does. And try to refrain from posting jackass comments.

[Thaurdruk]

And this is in no way insulting Riz he played great with the warrior. I look forward to pvping against you in the future.

Thaur I respect you as a Warrior and just wanted some feedback. If I came off as a bragger I'm truly sorry, because that's not what I intended to come here as. If I wanted to I wouldn't of given you a rematch after the first time you lost and I would've taken screenshots and posted all over the WoW General forums with the title "GG KTHX NURFEDPWNED," but I am not like that instead I gave you a rematch and fought 3-4 times more, I'm a competitor and I enjoy competition.

I'm new to the warrior class and from watching you own GrayRage in that one video where he was on his mount so fast that I wanted to be a warrior ever since. I was just wondering what you do when you go into a battle charging your opponent and what went wrong. And after you disarmed me in that fight I tried to disarm you the next fight and I failed miserably, it said "IMMUNE" and you totally destroyed me.

I tried couple of strategies, the more successful one was everytime you got the charged I used inner/intim shout right away so your initial rage built up was gone after I was done with you with some other stuff after that like demoral shout/rend/hamstring to make you run to me and then I run right behind you so it would give you an error message saying "you have to be infront to attack."

This is my first MMORPG and you guys are the kings of PvP from what I hear and I respect you guys for that and if I came off as a bragger I'm sorry once again.

Most serious PvP'ers put weapon chains on their weapons. (for a dual weilder, only main-hand weapon needs a chain)

Stabface is #1

*snip*
excuses abound :shock:

[Rahvin]

*sighs* Everytime I see a most by kintoun I feel so damn sorry for myself. When I was 8 I lived in Japan for around 9 months, and at the end I could speak it damn near fluently. Now 11 years later my Nippon vocab is a whopping 40 words and most of that I retained only because I'm a filthy otaku. *sighs in shame.....again*

holy jesus you actually know the origin of my name? I've never met a person who does, props to you. BTW I'm an Otaku b4 I'm even a gamer if that says anything. :shock:

[Thaurdruk]

Eh... I think I went overboard with my response. And kin is right "excuses"

I apologize lets hug.

[Thaurdruk]

Also I thought you played the character extremely well if you want to do some more testing when the servers come back up drop me a tell in IRC and maybe we can get on teamspeak or vent and go over some things..
