a little cow game

[chase_encode]

I gave it a couple of try's with my 1.09 druid. I couldn't get more than about 130 in the screen.

However, I did come up with a few suggestions:
1)Take the cows to one of the fenced areas. Not the cow king type area, but the regular timber fenced areas. This keeps them from all coming at you at once and making it harder to count.
2)I didn't try it, but I was thinking an amulet of inner sight would almost make them self counting.
3)Something with teleport charges is almost neccesarry so that you can get to the center of the cows for the final screenshot. Otherwise you have to mow yourself a path to center.
4)FRW is a almost a must. Not to get away, but to allow you to continuously circle the herds as you move them slowly to the fenced area.
5)Use a minion to keep/feed the cows while you break away from the fence area to collect more. Cast them near center of "loose" cows.

I gave up because I really need to start my homework. :yawn:

Here is my best from normal cows.

Good luck to you.

im going to try with my bonemancer is nm. bonw wall should direct them into the shot, and with confuse curse they will hit each other (but take ages to kill) and give me a chance of survival.

I did a few screenshots in hell cows, but I still have to dot them all. I'm not sure which pic has the most cows yet. If you just stand in the middle of a herd, they pack together quite tightly. The practical limit on how many cows you can get on screen appears to be vision limit of the cows - once a herd gets to a certain size, the cows on the far edge of the herd stop following you.

I think that is where a minion magnet is needed.

(re)cast at edge of cow herd while moving the pack to the others.
