SK Race Choice

[greatdane]

Nobody's gonna indulge you when you talk up your silly version of reality as some sort of universally applicable truth, while everyone who knows the game is aware that it doesn't really apply. Under no conceivable circumstances is fear-kiting inside dungeons "excellent" or universally viable, but in your odd desperation to be a contrarian to every opinion anybody ever posts, you have managed to concoct a view that suggests it is. Why, after presenting such a ridiculous statement, should anyone volunteer their time to satisfy any other equally silly notions you might have? Odds are that if the results conflict with what you had decided ahead of time, you'll invent some imaginary counter-argument for that as well.

Go to any dungeon. Are people fear-kiting in it? No? Well, how about that. It's because aside from a select few places where it might be doable, it is generally suicide. For that reason, since OP asked specifically about dungeon-crawling, it is wildly dishonest and misleading to suggest that picking iksar is a huge disadvantage due to the unavailability of BE gloves+boots. Now, realistically, he won't spend his whole life soloing in dungeons; but that is nevertheless the context that he asked about. Your statement is patently invalid in that context. There are other reasons why iksar is a sub-optimal choice, but fear-kiting inside dungeons is not one of them. Stop pretend it is. The tryhard bullshit on this forum is bad enough as it is.

Please name a place where an SK can solo and where you cannot fear kite. Then we can test it. Do you have anything to back up your argument besides nonsense?

Just about anywhere in any dungeon. How are you gonna fear kite anywhere that there isn't like fifty yards of no mobs inside a fucking dungeon? Come on. Stop being silly. We've all been to every dungeon. You couldnt even kill the first mob in Sebilis via fear-kiting, and the same goes for just about any section of every dungeon in this game. Is everyone here just full of shit? Are you trying to look badass by boasting?

There's a select few isolated places in dungeons where you can fear-kite without immediately pulling adds. Since OP was specifically asking about dunegon-crawling, all your idiotic nonsense is inapplicable to his question.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUYKBvYpPyM - Here is a video of me fear kiting Seb Ent. You must feel real silly right now[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yes, one video of one single location in one dungeon, by a raid-geared level 59 SK. Hurray. How many times have I pointed out that there's a few places you can, but nothing that would apply to OP's question of dungeon-crawling as an SK? Is this entire forum just some witless competition to find some singular example that idiots think proves an argument?

The guy is a new player. He's asking if his race choice will affect dungeon-crawling. What miniscule and largely-irrelevant place does your argument rest on when you post a video of you briefly fear-kiting one mob in one single portion of a dungeon? Do you expect that to be what this guy meant when he asked about solo-crawling? Of course not.

You literally said an SK can't fear kite Seb Ent. Why should we believe you when I just proved that wrong?

Sorry, but you are just a silly person right now. Do you have any evidence for your claims?

You didn't even watch the video, as I am killing more than one mob lol. You don't need raid gear to do this either. You have just made a number of false statements, and have yet to back them up with anything other than acting like a jackass.

You facetanked a green mob for like 80% of that video. Do you think that applies to the question that OP asked? I strongly doubt that's what he had in mind. I don't think he was asking if a level 59 geared SK can break into Sebilis. Under no circumstances can a guy who asks newbie questions expect to fear-kite inside dungeons and not die five times an hour. You know that, too. Going back to content you overlevel and outgear proves nothing whatsoever, and attempting to use it as an argument is silly in the extreme.

I cleared the first 8 mobs, and died at the end simply due to a small mistake. You have just shown people you are willing to make a false statement because you are too lazy to scrub a video. What other false statements are you making?

You don't need raid gear to fear kite in a dungeon, even lower leveled ones. You just need a good understanding of the spawn points and the pathing. I think it is pretty insulting that you just assume new players are unable to learn the game.

This is why Vanquish died.

I thought it died bc detoxx got SoD x2 and ran out of things to upgrade
