Fight Night IV
by Acid Sin (9/16/00)
The final team battle last night was hands down one of the best times I've had playing this game. It was crazy, and that is what made it so damn fun:). Chat log had scrolled by before I had the chance to cut it so I can't post it though.

The fight between TSS and myself was a pretty good one I thought. I got frustrated with the resists and kinda screwed up, but TSS did an excellent job. I really don't understand how I was being resisted so much, I had focus/self jewelry on the whole time with life V and war V on. My war was at 240 and I was being resisted probably about 3/4 the time by 215 magicD. Even got resisted after the magic yield. Anybody know if spell economy could have anything to do with this? I know that at high density times I fizzle a lot
more than usual. Anyways, maybe I just got unlucky, but it was still a great fight.

The final big brawl was awesome. Reason I picked Nat and Zak first was because I wanted a couple good melees on my team. The other picks were because Zak told me to pick em:P...had an idea who to pick, but wasn't really sure. Kinda felt like a kid on the playground picking who I wanted on my team for dodgeball:). I told the others to take out Mhali then Nic to start. Somebody said that Nic would be better to get first so we went with him. Reason for this is I didn't really want my teammates to have to get debuffed to
hell and back, and didn't want the mages healing their teammates. Next target I said to get was Druss. He's big, tough, and swings a helluva axe, nuff said. Last target was TSS. Pretty much figured that if we got him we would have the match, but knew he would be
evading the melees like none other. Didn't pick Chinook especially as a target because didn't want to have to wast half of the damn match chasing him down:).

Vaguely remember some parts of the match but here goes... Match starts out, I imp Nicolas and the melees quickly dispatch him. At this point everybody is scattered all over and I was suprised to not be getting mugged. Was going to imp Mhali next, but Oberion
comes up and wacks me on full power with a hollow sword for 20. Turned to him, Acid Vuln V, drain, drain, war, he dies. By this time I remember hearing Mhali and Nat die, so wasn't to concerned since we had the numbers on our side. At this time Silent comes up to me and nails me for a 20 with a lightning spear. This pretty much suprised me since I had Armor VI, Lightning prot VI, and ImpenV on my coat and legs. I guess Nicolas got an imp on me earlier though so that could explain it...forgot to buff my MagicD:P. Anyways, Silent is hitting me pretty good, and I start getting shot with arrows by Chinook I guess, and had another melee or 2 come up on me at some point. Really can't remember who all was attacking me. I go ahead and drop an Imp on Silent hoping that somebody will come up and start wacking on him in the back. I think I then Acid vulned him and then tried to
shoot him with a couple runcasts, hitting the fence with one. After that I dunno what happened, but the people who were attacking me seemed to find new targets. I drank a couple stam elixers at this point and did a couple stam to mana's. Don't remember what I did here again, but remember surveying the scene quickly. Noticed Druss was exchanging blows with someone on top of a roof. Dropped an Imp V on him, and I think he took off running over somewhere else. A few of us started chasing Silent at this point. I was pretty much dropping debuffs on him hoping that the melee's would hit him for some nice damage, and maybe trying to toss a couple drains at him when he tried to heal. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Zak and Druss fighting. I dropped an Acid Vuln V on Druss, then rancast a Acid Stream V which was enough to finish Druss. At this point I think the remaining people were myself, Zak, Drake, and I think maybe one more on our team. Silent's team was down to him and Chinook, maybe one other person. From there I remember pretty much everyone clearing out and Silent running up to me and attacking. It was pretty much just me and him at this point, and I thought I was in trouble since I had maybe 130 mana. I dropped a Blud Vuln V on him, had Acid/Lightning vulned him earlier already but figured he had on the appropriate jewelry already. Started draining like crazy and shooting a couple of war or two that I believe both got resisted, but still managed to get him pretty low on life even though I was about out of mana. He backed off to heal and I saw an oppurtunity. He got his first heal off and started going for his second. I charged up a Shockwave V and started runcasting towards him, and got it off at the right time to finish off Silent:). Thought it was over then, but saw Chinook running around and gave chase. After awhile everyone said the match was over so I stopped....btw I had chinook
Imped/vulned/leadenfeeted/weaknessed/slowenessed/ and was right behind him with my claw:P. All in all it was one of the funnest fights I've ever been a part of, and all I can say is that I'm ready for Fight Night V.

P.S. We definitely have to have another match like this at the
next fight night.
