Anyone else have the problem where you are set to regain enough health to revive you only to find yourself dead again 30 seconds later?

I don't think I'm the only one being stalked, but this is getting ridiculous. I can't even do anything unless I use a revive on myself

[McSwindler]

Yup, pretty much everyone levels 30+ is dead constantly :/

With the exception of Edd and Alfa...the killers >.>

[Riku]

I don't think I've killed you too recently..

Anyways, what's the problem with having to revive yourself? I have to constantly it feels. You can't wait for your health to recover generally because that's also when they attack on you expires. I.E. They'll simply attack again.

Also.. Sometimes, it's better to be dead.

I understand where you're coming from. It's not that I want to kill you all the time, but because everyone else under level 30 gives me very little experience. Basically, I am able to progress because of you. As soon as I see you on full health, I'm more tempted to attack you than spending the night with Megan Fox. XD

Nick and I can attack every 60 minutes. The higher you are (every 10 levels), the faster your attack round frequency. Now, we don't have a lot of members playing the battle, so we can't really kill the lower folks because 1) They're bad XP and 2) The folks in the middle order are better off training on them. But I want you guys to gain levels also (benefits me as well), I'm willing to skip every other attack round on you guys, just so you can train without worrying about us. I'm also going to ask Nick to do the same, because basically, him and I are the ones that kill the remainder of the top 20. XD I'm a generous person, after all. And as a personal favor, I'm willing to offer ONE complete revive (100% HP and STR) per day to anyone. All you'd have to do is drop me a PM.

I think that way the rest of the top order should be able to catch up with us, so it gets more challenging. Of course, once you get into the three digits, there will be no mercy from me.

[Spartan]

It's usually the same way for me, just budget in a self revival for your next round of attacks. No pain no gain!

[Alfawarlord]

Edd talked to me and we will skip a attack round every other hour.

However...

EDIT: We gave this a try and it still meant that you would be dead because the round that Edd doesn't attack, I do. So we discussed it and will do the following

- 1st hour: Edd attacks
- 2nd hour: I attack
- 3rd hour: neither of us
- reset

This means that you should be alive for an hour.

[Varunky]

I'd rather budget for extreme strengths so that when I am alive I can do more damage and gain more levels...

That leaves me and Anthuny out of the equation :/ Well, usually we're both dead so whatever

And forum battle means you will die- it's a fact

That's like complaining you have to buy armor for soldiers because you'd rather buy more ammo. It's war atm Revives are essential just like strength pots.

[Double_D_Edd]

Keep in mind that we're just trying to give you guys more slack so you can get your attacks in. It's forum battle: Every man for himself.

One tip I'd like to leave for strength conservation: If a person is 300 HP, then all you need is a weapon with a max attack of 200. I've always used this and 99% of the time (for me at least), I'm able to kill that person. There's no real need to use a weapon with 300 strength, or 250 for that matter.

[Varunky]

But say I revive myself, if I have no way to renew strength then I can only do 1 or 2 attacks after reviving myself. Things get quite expensive fast.

Look at your level compared to others though; you are a tank. Usually if someone has over 300 I just use Rapier, and under is AGS

I don't think that's a problem for everyone. Assuming Nick and I back off, you still have to face others in battle. Point is, you need to stock up somehow, and I think the prices are better-balanced than they were at first. Obtaining GP isn't very easy, but it isn't very difficult either.

Well, it's not about me, but everyone else who isn't as high as Nick and me. Regardless of your level, that tip should work for everyone most of the time. Me being staff/admin or being extremely high-leveled does not affect that trick.

Two words. Save up. I'm not going to give away what I do, but preparation is key.

Also, being in the thick of it, I say my opinion carries a significant amount of weight.

I do try to save up. I try to avoid posting spam (or worthless comments) though.

I guess my saving up will just have to be not using up pots for a while, or something like that... Or just finding something interesting to post about..

Let's say you just got done with a round somehow. I'm too lazy to look up how often you can do your attack rounds, but for the sake of argument, let's go with 60 minutes. As soon as those 60 minutes are up, start attacking. Your strength regenerates after every attack you GAIN. Try to plan around that if you don't already. You can also save your revives for that moment, so that way you only need to worry about your health, not your strength.

[Varunky]

Pardon my ignorance, but I'm not sure what you mean here?

That's the trick of the game.

Since Edd is determined to give it away.. <.<.

Example: Use 8/8 Attacks, using 100% of your strength each time, spreading them out around 30 seconds each (for the sake of the example).

First attack expires - Quickly attack somebody, as the STR used in attack 1 will now be returned, as it has expired. 7 More attacks still have not expired. Get off the attack and gain the EXP, while using Attack 1's STR again.

Second attack expires - Quickly attack somebody again, this time the 2nd attack from your previous string will expire giving you back it's STR. Attack, get the EXP and use the STR again. Now you've used 2 Attacks, still have 6 previous waiting to expire.

For attack 3-8, continue to attack before more than one attack is expired at a time. This avoids the use of Pots, unless you need that extra attack to kill somebody.

[Double_D_Edd]

The reason I gave it away is because it doesn't affect me.
