Good examples, except you're not counting one thing. The example is fine if you're forcing these saves on an unresisting target. Often, you need to choose your shape according to what defences the shape in question has, rather than the offence. But yes, epic shifter is a lot more viable than a non-e...

My main beef with the autofail removal is the fact that it makes high characters even more uber. We don't need more uberness. If the loss of being able to use a weak ability against an equal leveled PC or NPC breaks the fun factor of the person playing the class I dislike people putting words to my ...

Class powers wont suddenly fracture because you no long have a pathetic 5% chance of them working. Why? If your using a power with a 5% chance, your using the wrong power. Spell casters have many many options to pull from. Powers from shifters, well, guess what, they aren't there to make you uber. ...

What he said. With soon almost a year of playing a shifter, I've never come across opponents of comparable level that are suscetiple to shifter attacks without the autofail. Even now, it is almost always better to just use melee attacks. With autofail removed, the class would become half pointless. ...

Isn't Tiras a lot higher level than Vence anyway, so why shouldn't he be able to solo the place better?

Yeah, I know the 404 shifter is a remake, I read the thread. Actually, it's a pretty impressive remake by the looks of it. Guess I was sniffing a small undercurrent of nerf-gas in the air or something. Also, I was under the impression that this forum is meant for discussion about all kinds of things...

As a 16th level shifter on Avlis (and probably the first ever there, you know who I'm playing TD), I can tell you that most things that give me xp worth getting pierce a 15/+1 resist. Gargoyle form's really not worth using, since it does d4 damage, and I never use it in combat anymore. And no form g...

Shifter player here: Shifter uberness is a myth, which can be seen if you actually play one. Take Manticore spikes: -If you want to hit hard, the claw attacks are better. -They cannot be used to give fire support, since they target your buddies. - This is the only non-epic unlimited power for shifte...

I have characters on both Avlis and Hala. Haven't tried other worlds because I don't want to a) download any more haks b) read any more forums. However, I will start on Abyss once it goes live.

Whoa. What I've seen on Hala, the lootbag's been at Avlis level (only potions, little gold, sometimes a scroll or gem) . Guess I've missed some caves..

Those red Mage battle robes also sell in Romini camp on Avlis, I think. Never thought to report them 'cause they didn't look that powerful to me.

A character concept is important at first. Still, sometimes seeing a "different" race can just bring up a character concept. Looking forward to playing a tiefling on Abyss next, maybe. I believe in what some call "organic character development". I start on a narrow base, and the ...

Would Sigil act as a crossroads for the different copap portals.. if it's ever made?
