How dare they try to participate in combat, thank you for pointing that out. You are clearly justified in crushing them and asserting your dominance. My mistake.
People who defend constantly, and partake in offensive raids are clearly noncoms. How dare you try and go against Tesha's flawless logic, @Dunn. Shame on you.
Not a big problem... Bring more people next time. Also, can we (You) quit trying to assert that people who take part in offensive raids are noncomms and should not be attacked? They're willingly and voluntarily participating in combat, to expect no repercussions because they're new (What even is "new" in achaea?) is silly.
I am guilty of using the term noncombatants interchangeably with people who are not very good at/still learning combat, it is a bad habit of mine. My point was, if you are looking for an even fight, get rid of the people who are learning. It only discourages them if you take away the leaders and just kill the rest. Which I guess is fine if that is your goal, but I am assuming your goals include having fun. Cannot say killing people who are really new to combat is very fun for me, but different people like different things, I suppose.
The goal of 2v6 is generally to win. I pit the people who posed the greatest risk to that. Sorry for making a calculated decision based on likelihood to mess me up (tremlololol tops that list)?
I say 2 because I genuinely did not know Bonko was there. I saw arrows and assumed they hit @Jhui (hence him dying like a noob). Tough to see arrows in a melee in the first place (without a PT announce), but to see who they are hitting is a different ballpark.
Someone make a "Whining about combat" thread? Should clear this one up nicely. Meanwhile, I'll open a book on who which City will make the greatest proportion of the first 100 posts.
ETA: Strikethrough for clarity. Wasn't talking about individuals. Though... they know who they are.
And 80% AXKs aside(ridiculous)..more excitement and lethality in future combat is the way to go...not ridiculous defensive strategies that let you survive everything that is thrown at you if timed correctly(tumbling past stonewall into active ground runes, mountfly on puppet cripple/mangle, I see you Tirac, inflate balloon, Priests)so lets keep that in mind!
@Militis: It's not just the AXKs that are ridiculous, though. I fought badly and he deserved the wins, but here's some combos from fights with Denex just now:

That's with 93 blunt fullplate and toughness, I also have level three health arties, level three sip ring, level two health regen, a boar tattoo, and hands and that's still a totally unmanageable amount of damage.
This whole thread now just makes me think of the bitchy girls in those high school movies who just trash talk everything anyone says and then at the end of the film all make friends and... @bonko, can you post a gif to explain all this?
I'm thinking something from mean-girls will sum up what this whole thread has become.

Mind you, I've got 23,000 credits worth of Artifacts.

I have more than that, and my priestly combos don't do that insane damage #-o

This is no Mean Girls, but this popped up in my head as soon as you mentioned 'trash talk everything'.
[spoiler]
You are all socially-outcast girls. Except me. I'm a universally-outcast abomination.
Here is a 100% legit log of me killing @Dunn by myself in Annwyn two days ago after everyone else got pitted, as seen by a mysterious third-party.
Echald looks towards Dunn and begins to recite the holy verses. Dunn screams in agony as his soul is burnt with purgatorial fire. A great weight seems to have been lifted from Jhui. Jhui takes some salve from a vial and rubs it on his skin. Echald gathers his breath and hurls a piercing battlecry towards Dunn. Dunn falls to his knees and clutches his ears as the shaft of sound strikes him. Echald rips into Dunn with his massive, deadly claws. SpamBot tells you, "Greetings! Would you like refinance your penis and enlarge your mortgage?" Echald lunges at Dunn with long, flashing claws extended, tearing into his left leg ruthlessly. Drawing an enormous breath, Echald exhales, expelling a gale of wind with such force that Dunn is knocked over. Echald kick his leg high and scythe downwards at Dunn. He connect to the head! Dunn has been slain by Echald. A dingleberry falls from Dunn's corpse.
