The screenshots of the ethereal throwing weapons don't look very ethereal to me... :crazyeyes:

Good show!

Very nice idea and a great writeup!

epic, epic, and epic characters

I'd like to see some recorded duels if someone is planning on doing that, :tombstone:

Thanks for the praise everyone! (As Heskla would say, it feeds the ego)

How was the balance of killing speed between the Ancients? It would seem to me that Talic would manage the bulk of the heavy killing but I don't have much experience with throwers or with leap attack.

About what you expected. Talic did tear up the bulk of the monsters (75-80%), but I don't want to label the others as slouches. My mercenary and I were immune to Iron Maiden, so that made us better in certain areas than the other chars. However, the benefits of Amplify Damage (from Lacerator) cannot be stressed enough. That curse shaved down our Baal times considerably. Similarly, Korlic's War Cry upped the safety factor by a huge margin. So while Talic was the quickest killer, the rest of the Ancients had their place and I like to think that we worked very well together.

Liquid, could you please add the final skill trees?

Madawc: Max Double Throw, Double Swing (synergy), Throwing Mastery, Shout, 1 in the useful masteries with a couple extra in Natural Resist, and the remaining points dumped into Grim Ward. I'll let the others post their own builds.

You might need to adjust your monitor or something.

Thats cool: I never saw a char with synergysed Leap Attack :thumbsup:

And Liq, I swear, a few hours ago your G-Bite and Lacerator wasn't ethereal, you changed it, the pics I mean :crazyeyes:

Re: The Ancients make Patriarch

Talic should have been using a sword. Grief Broadsword? Oh wait...broadsword doesn't have enough sockets for that

What was Madawc's real throw damage? Oh, and condolences to him for having to endure what he did
