> Is spellbane as bad as people who bitch about it on this forum make it out to be? I have to admit that the logs on the log board aren't too comforting, but they could always be freak events. > I'm trying to decide what to play, but I don't want to spend hours on a role and so forth only to be slaughtered repeatedly because I'm rendered useless by a cabal that will be hunting me. I would recommend you a necro. This is indeed I can say that spellbane is bad, as I, for example, But overall, it is fun to play a necro (just
my favourite class. My first character, my first
character past rank 10, my first caballed character
and my best character were all necros, and they
were four different characters:)
was not a single time able to sleep a rager.
But indeed summon/lash is all that you will
do, and it's enough (word or teleport sometimes,
of course).
What is much worse for me is their damned resist.
A zombie that normally EVISCERATES my enemies,
hits or injures rager giant. That makes our
chances nearly equal:)
Another problem with necro you should be ready
to encounter is that noone will take you in the
group unless there are no other people they can
invite. Ranking is a pain for necromancer.
my opinion)
