Thanos or Genji? Warning: *ID* screens! I'm really conflicted. The Gauntlets of Thanos would put a big damper on my fighting ability, but I'd get to raise my armor class a lot because they would give me a lot of resistances I need (already have, but use lesser equipment so I'll have them) and I'd have TWO immunities! I mean... I could take down some heavy fire or cold-using uniques with these gauntlets. Then again, I have no clue what the ancient, foul curse does! I removed the heavy curse, but the ancient foul one still remains. So... advice? I get 11 attacks, so a drop in damage could be augmented by wearing the armor Dasai since the Gauntlets of Thanos kill my stealth anyway. For now I'm going with Genji... any ideas how I could counteract the penalties of the Gauntlets of Thanos and get those immunities? Posted on 14.11.2005 19:14 Comments?

Thanos has a specific use for me: use for Arena fights.

Honestly, after only a short while, I realized how much using Dasai was crippling me. I could melee things wonderfully, but now I've got a hard leather cap that gives me +4 speed, and I've got my stealth, perception, and searching all up to Amber. Much MUCH nicer, even with 10 blows instead of 11! (Had to sacrifice Hammerhand) though I managed to get a CON boost and I'm up to about 420 hp! So no Thanos for me. Seen 1746 times. |
