The Ultimate Guide to Bone Knights!

[Taiku]

It's like a shadow knight without the hybrid penalty, better mana regen and more powerful spells, more powerful pet, but with lower AC and combat skills. I don't think people playing bone knights are interested in maximizing their performance, it's a fun new playstyle in a 20,000 year old goblin sim.

Not to say one is better than the other (sk and necro), and clearly a traditional necromancer build is "better" than a bone knight at or near max level, but the difference between a bone knight and a traditional necro at 60 is like 20 dex instead of 20 int, easy to just switch up playstyles.. And I think the leveling experience of being a melee bone master is pretty fun.

In the same sense, you could make a case for battle clerics. Paladins aren't really in a group because of their "awesome damage" (sorry Naethyn), just their tanking ability.

Clerics obviously have all of the same aggro spells... but with better HP buffs and still the ability to wear plate and have decent AC. With their ability to also be undead wizards, I tip my hat to their versatility <3

Clerics are great CCers too with their range of stuns, fears, roots, lulls and memblurs. It’s quite fun being able to tell adds to just calm down and go home!

Yeah I was thinking post-Velious of trying to make a battle cleric too which good dex gear + proc weapons combined with cleric spells could be a lot of fun, and versatile. If nothing else, would probably be a more interesting leveling experience then healing and medding.

in this thread we pretend playing classes poorly is fun
(LOL)

[Anxarcule]

We actually aren't pretending and are actually having fun - I wonder if you've ever imagined that people can have fun doing things that you find unfun. If you don't have anything to contribute aside from belittling then why even bother posting? Don't you have something better to do with your time and energy?

I wish you maturity my friend [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Look who you're replying to... he literally has a troll as an avatar. The guy is a goof and just trying to rile people up.

Can't believe I agree. I've been fascinated how many people think this play style was created by OP

Wait till y'all get a load of my Boned Knight, an SK that only uses spells!
