Did anyone notice that Drayman barely hit Taerin at all, and got hit often?!?!?
Drayman is a HAND TO HAND specialist, yet in a hand to hand fight (both were wearing no weapons after taerin returned) he got his ass handed to him by an assassin!!!
Drayman is felar, so he has hand to hand at 100%. Even if Taerin does as well, this boils down to an assassin fighting a warrior, and not just any warrior, but a hand to hand specialist, and the h2h specialist got smacked. The assassin was better at hand to hand fighting than the hand to hand warrior.
I don't think either was hasted or otherwise enhanced which would make this fight so crazy.
Does this make sense to anyone??
