Vs. gg Smiter

[Ce Olba]

oooooops sry. I meant cap on slows target down. For example, does holy freeze slow stack w/ clegraw/astreons/claw golem so that it can slow target to 100% (which I highly doubt). I heard the cap was 50. Is this true does anyone know?

Ask Orphan or RTB. If I remember correctly, RTB has posted about the slows target by x% multiple times.

The only run advantage a Barb has terms of speed is a few points in Increased Speed.

As for their slow, if you're both slowed the same amount, the duel pretty much evens out again, which leaves you were you began, ww vs smite. And WW > Smite.



I did say that WWsins dont cut it in BM vs a smiter, but why bother slowing the Sin down when you can just Deaths + Andys + Antidote their damage to nothing anyway? Even a 6k WWsin (no mobility though, because it needs bramble) wont do enough damage to overcome that.

increased speed makes a hell of a difference. the smiter actually benefits from both players being slowed since it's so easy to telesmite a slowed ww:er even with 20 fpa smite.

personally i dont consider slow "bm", but barb is much better anyway due to higher range, higher damage and better mobility.

I was under the impression that using holy freeze against a ww barb was not a good idea as the barb stays in range for longer allowing for more hits?

longer in range = dead barb.

:smiley: Duff, I'd be happy to duel you with my WW/Trapper, I'm US West Ladder too. We could try some duels /w sorb, some without, etc. to see the win spread. My sin is Nekisi in case we've met, I think I remember a smiter with Duff in the name.

I've seen you like once. Thien is a friend of mine (vector-prime) and I think you know him or have dueled him at least.

BTW DuffMacane has lone since retired :cry: turns out I can have base str and still wear CoA (w/ 2 2 str charms, although I should use my remaining points I'm afraid to commit ). So new guy is RoseMacane.
Also my new barb is SlashMacane if you ever see him. Not very good with him at all but it's fun so far :laugh:

Good to hear you know thein, he plays sin pretty well. I'm not on much, RL gets in the way a lot between school, work and other hobbies, but I'll try to be on D2 this weekend.
