40-50 fashions is usually my comfortable, ok lets do this range. 60-70 is overkill

I go to 60 simply so that I can out of room concussion. But sometime I will show you my logs for sure. I probably am, I'm relatively new to the class.

Learn not to rely on out-of-room concussion.  Anyone worth their salt will expect it, and you can do so much more.

If I have 60 ~ 70 fasions, but no way to get them inside to prevent flying, or at least force them to tumble into an indoor room, what can I do? Im having quite a bit of trouble going against serpent's evade, and I end up wasting stacks when they simply just tumble out of everything. I'm probably doing something wrong, but any general input?

Even though I've left message me and I will explain some tips.

For serpent I riftlock then throw an aeon then a puppet slow. But evade man, ugh. Tower tarot and icewalls aren't a problem for them. Then if they can fly I have to cripple.

And force sleep immediately when they tumble, or the second they're about to leave room? Can stunning accomplish this?

I don't know if it's already been mentioned, but you can cancel tumble by puppet commanding them to move in the direction they're tumbling.

Evade isn't a problem for you until you start your prep. Then at that point you can use a mangle illusion, cripple and then real mangle. Or just real mangle, cripple, mangle the other leg. If they can't fly, one mangled leg and towers and peels will be enough to hinder them from evading or leaving the room at all as you only need them to hit peels once to be proned.

What's the theory behind surviving a vivisect? People tell me restore, but I just don't see the numbers behind that fitting, and @Vicious won't tell me in-game.

Jovolo

The very very basics of it is to not apply restoration whenever you're off equilibrium from restoring but continue to apply mending to cure cripples

Arador

That or join Mhaldor.

Dalran

So, question about miniskills! The only miniskill I have trans is philosophy at the moment, I'm curious about which miniskills are considered the most useful to trans first. Assume no defensive arties, and level 81 magi with ~4k health, and 14 int! 

Thanks in advance

is that your way of saying you have less than 4000 health?  Level up dude, fill out that escrow.

Florentino

Thermology so you can tank your own holos better.

Dalran

I tend to only use holocaust when I'm flying with allies on the ground and retardation down though.

Florentino

Well maybe if it did less damage to you, you would use it more.

Antonius

Antidotes is really useful for reducing arrow damage.

Melodie

Yeah, I'm doing antidotes first, but after that I'm debating thermology for holocausts or constitution because eff magical damage.

Riley

I only have galvanism left to trans, I did thermology first, because it was back when trolls were weak vs fire.

Wessux

Fitness and philosophy so you can deal with monks better. Thermology is what I would do next for magi. Just go from there.

Re: vivi.

Restore the first quad break, but don't apply restoration while you are off equilibrium from that restore. Just keep applying mending until EQ comes back.

Iocun

Or shrug.

Arador

Or dragon heal instead of restore and laugh.

Iocun

Or just kill the necromancer.

Kafziel

Or kill all the grove users.

Wait we're talking about soul rezz counters, right?

Tvistor

Personally I try to find the necromancer's house and cut his brake lines.

Vicious

Dragonheal won't help you, same as restore. Basic Svo users who use auto restore do the same thing when they dragonheal. Break third limb after applies and vivisect. Please don't listen to Dunn's classlead about soulspears it's probably one of the saddest things I've ever read in my existence. 5 cap? How about No

You've obviously never been on the receiving end.

Basic Svo users don't stop applying restoration off eq. If they did then you wouldn't be able to vivisect off a third limb.

Jovolo

Unless you dsl sub 1.4 seconds while frenzy'd. Hence classlead 150.

I have been on the receiving end, and I can safely say that the compare game is fucking stupid and I have never felt so passionate or livid as I have regarding truename vs soulspear vs thornspray wars (i.e. Factional advantages).

Is a broken arm supposed to prevent you from touching shield?

Two broken(/crippled) arms are, one isn't.

If you had icefist on you that would also stop you from touching tattoos.

And my question is. How often does Hellsight apply an affliction?
