Blindness sucks, can't disagree there. However, as a warrior, you go ahead and blind me, and I'll take my two weapons and my bash and while you are wasting time blinding I'll be bashing you so you can't disarm me. > Ap's get third attack when? 25th level, no? Actually they get it at 13th rank, and dual wield at 15th. > And it's tough to lightning bolt someone to death while dirted. You don't have to direct lightning bolt when you're fighting, so unless they flee you can light them up like an arial in the bathtub. I've easily stomped on groups of people as a lowbie anti-paladin. Granted I ALWAYS sit on Eastern and/or chase raiding parties so I get some stellar gear, sometimes even the odd aura/barrier/shield item. By the time I prepare myself with all of that shit, enlarge or reduce as required, and fly...they've got nothing left to do but dirt and run. I think anti-paladins are probably one of the better lowbie pk'ers, especially with the huge crop of magic haters running around.
Yellow roots and flying potions take care of tripping and bashing. If enlarge isn't enough to get you out of bashing range, maybe reduce will...if not then your point stands.
> In truth, my point was that if all of these rager wannabes aren't grouping with magi, they are probably grouping together. If one group has one of the things I mentioned, the antipaladin is toast (one to see the invisible guy, the other two to kick the crap out of him)
