ack, I am being dumb here! Sorry my original post got so warped! Then all these ppl tell me they can woop my Barb so i got a little defensive! (In my game he is the ultimate tank anyway, maybe he would'nt be in yours)
So to clear this up I am not trying to say mine is better then yours ect...

On a side note we could always have a multiplayer RUMBLE eheh jokes guys!

thats why there r stoneskins. at lvl 40, you have about 20 skins. you cant bust through those in 1 round. the mage runs back, casts lower resist and you lose 50% MR (10% +1%/lvl). mage continues to cast horrid wilting and meteor swarm (no save to MS). time comes back in, mage throws on some more skins, repeat. get the idea? mages may be cheap, but ur barb is kinda super-tanked up, and im betting that my WS can give him a run for his money! (for those of u who dont know, my WS upset alot of ppl at the old forum by having 25 in first 3 stats and stuff.) so technically, thats 2 unlegit (im not using cheated cuz neither is cheated, just overpowered) characters battering it out in a never-ending slugmatch.

But RUDEDAWG WHAT IF......eheh just playing!

This is the main reason the PnP rules never let you get past level 25...

NOTHING can touch you

I got my Archer to level 23, and got BORED with the game...

I'll never do that again...

I can't resit this! Stoneskin eheh but but flail of the ages will hack that downand slow you to ...........................
HEre tell ya what spellcasters have a CHANCE vrs this barb BUT melee classes no matter the level don't! OKAY GUYS?

RudeDawg · 06-03-2001, 04:55 PM

Now, let me tell you why I think the Barb is the most underrated fight in the game.

straight out of the gate, he's the toughest thing going....

you don't NEED to soup him up... He can be played as a MAD TANK... even at level 12 or 13, he's almost immune to everything...

BUT, his skills and stuff won't grow too much at higher levels...

ANY fighter class needs to beware mages at higher levels....

wait, crom fayer is just +3 damage according to guide. meaning: absolute immunity keeps it off during timestop casting

but i think its about time to just let this drop off the first page...

madmartigan · 06-03-2001, 04:58 PM

well in my game it gives +5 and hits monsters using that spell? it's +5 I am 100% sure

RudeDawg · 06-03-2001, 04:59 PM

This will explain why I feel so strongly about the subject...

Hey RudeDawg. I put a group of players thru a module in the Forgotten Realms setting (I forget the name but is was in the Bloodstone Pass) you have to be a minimum level of 23 (the module was for lvl 23 to 100). I had killed half of the party before they got to the portal to take them to the Abyss on go after Orrcus himself. It was a 4 module set. You start in the first module at level 1 and by the time you got to the 4 module you would be at least level 23
