As stated i've noticed a lack of something, i've never made a full dex bot before, as in no strength AT ALL, and now im gettin to the point, a lack of dex weapons, as in requiring only dex. ITS SOOOO GAY! bin stuck with rapiers for like 6 or 7 lvls now waitin for stats for Nunchucks! then solar sword... which is a fair way..

Block chance needs to be raised 5% for dexterity bots to be worthwhile in the higher levels, or special armours that require both dex and strength. Can't remember being higher then level 120 and dexterity standing a chance. |

Raising block chance is a bad idea. Dex bots are insanely over-powered at higher levels. |

Perhaps a level-based formula for max block then? Pure dex bots are seriously underpowered due to the cap and it's never made sense that 95% of the bots in this game are strength based. It only makes the game a whole lot more boring and predictable. |

we all know why 95% of bots in bots2 were str...they hit hard, they kill fast. |
2011-03-17 08:41:45

He has a point, 95% of the bots being str is a bit gay and it would be good to have a bit more variation |

Noo, I want more pure str bots! They suit me just fine. |

How are they overpowered at high levels when you can only use armours that level 70 strength bots can? The extra defence from shields and block chance is no match for a bot with 400+ strength and the best armours. |

The reason Pure Strength bots were popular before was because they would rape the fastest. Near the end, it hardly mattered because any bot could one shot whores from 30 levels down (I regularly did it with Dreads, I one shot whores 35 levels higher). |

To add to my last post, I know someone's going to bring up the argument that later on, Balance demolishes everything again. Fair point, but how many bots at 180+ actually fought each other? There were very few high level bots with decent builds, and they were pretty much all used for tournaments. |

If there is an across the board armor nerf it would be the easiest solution. |

Dex armors I don't agree with personally. |

"Dex/Balance weapons already do more damage on average than Strength weapons, and they're 'rushed' so they're even stronger. |

As for shields, he's going to make them take damage, FURTHER nerfing Dex/Balance bots in that temporarily during fights we have even more a chance of losing durability and taking more damage. |

Unique shields would help, but they'd help balance bots just as much as dex bots. I think a slight change in the hitchance formula to favour dex more strongly would be the best outcome, by virtue of strengthening dex a lot and balance a little. |

If the absorb were any higher, damage for every bot would be retardedly low. |

throwing "critical hit" shit into the game maybe? |

Unique shields are interesting, but I don't like the idea of any uniques outside of armors personally. That said, if they were implemented, sure they'd help Balance out as well, but I don't think it'd kick them into #1 by a fair amount. It'd level the field a bit more, though I still think Strength would be very strong, depending on how they were done of course. |

Hmm I've been thinking that a new skill, 'luck' maybe, could possibly factor in critical hit %. It would have to increase by only a small amount so that there's incentive to keep adding points to it. |

That'd require every player to have their own showroom, which seems kind of pointless. |

I was thinking more along the lines of everyone has the same showroom, but extra items (a limited number) randomly pop in yours based on your stats (eg. high str armours for a str bot). Eh, it's probably not such a great idea after all, and I can see how it would be difficult to incorporate a new skill into the game at this stage. But what the heck, this is open beta so I figure this is the best time to be making some wild suggestions :) |

I dunno about raising the defense on shields, I don't think it'd make enough of a difference, as the extra absorb would only be ~1-2% more (unless they were dramatically increased). |

I think the point we keep dancing about is that shields need something, imo. More defense / unique stats / deal damage on block / ect |

Why are you using a shield? Your block % is probably terrible if you're using silver katanas. Try dual wielding, but even then str is too strong. |
