> However, many many people play battleragers the same. This is evident by the proliferation of Thror-speaking RBW's and the general tendency for them to hang out around Eastern Road waiting for the next kill. Not that that's bad per se, just that I usually come to realize that these aren't the people I like surrounding myself with. I can't see me being able to sit in the Inn and chat with any and everybody that comes in, especially mages even though there are a few that run the place. I also can't see me getting a lot of exploring done 1)because many of the other battleragers would be more interested in hunting 2)because you can't use magic and thus there'd be a lot of dying in no-exit rooms and such, 3)because a defender's work is never done and I couldn't in good conscience place exploration over helping villagers with their tasks, etc. Again Imbrogno, you're assuming here. The immortals *don't* want you to sit around on your duff solely helping other battleragers. It shows weakness to a strong barbarian to always need help. You can in fact be an explorer without any sort of thoughts that you're doing a bad job. Defender does not mean you're there to defend everyone in the village. It's every man for himself really. Except in times of war, where we let the good times roll.
