Naa just kidding! just thought it was funny

The reason I post this is to ask all u daemon hunters out there huntin daemons all day. I'm a Vamp.. warrior using sword, parr, axe and bow

what is the best tactic for soloing a Daemon ( I know I shouldn't solo it yet since some of my skills are to low) but anway I used bow, axe everything and it went rather good at first, then the prot.. and ra fishes ran out and he caught up to me when I ran into a tree with to low hp so I got killed

Can't say I had a perticular tactic so any suggestions on how to deal with a daemon in the future would be very nice. And I know that the best way is not to solo it, but it would be fun to do it ones in a while

after the patch i had realy hard time to solo 1
best tactic is posion have bow and start run

First off death by healing delay is a very old problem lets say. I've seen it happen in 2 ways. Firstly when there was a delay between applying bandies and when they actually took effect, a monster that kills you during that delay often made your grave say as your's does. Secondly, when real low on HP, and you apply bandies, sometimes you mysteriously die to the heal delay, pretty wierd.

As for tactics, I'd say it depends on your str. As you said with the reactive and protect fishes you can stand toe to toe more effectively. But with anything less than 120 str I'd keep well away and archer him. As these deamons can mellee a tonne. Also since they now cast reactive and other such spells your close combat skills will hardly do anything to him. As seen with warrior/mage pvp, the only real effective way to beat RA, is to use a bow from a distance. So I'd say shoot your arrows, run a little, stop, shoot, run etc.

i got 160 str and i still cant take deamon 1 vs 1
i geuss i can take 1 with a verte and good sowrdbut then i will lose more then i get fromthe loot :S

I hear you man. I'm just saying dont dare try get close to him with anything less than that str as he'll probably kill you in 2 hits.

BB said he's going to be playing with the AI and make them a little less smart, which should hopefully make them easier to fight 1 vs 1.

heheh cool and yea 2 hit will probbly kill some1 with 120 str

oh didn't see it as a problem, there have always been odd messages on the gravestones, like "F?anor Bauglir was slained by F?anor Bauglir" but with the recent discussion on the subject I found it to be funny. I thought

"wonder if someone that doesn't like the system would have use a thing like this to make a point, witch would have been ridiculous to say the least "

ohh and thanks for the advise, I'll see if I can't managed to woop his ... next time I try to kill him/her or perhaps it

I have less then 120 str and i could melee him for quiet sometime, without dieing but I had almost new verite, prot (around 125 in ar) and ra
so it's not like u die after 2 strikes. They can inflict loads of damage but if u use blood, bandies and heal pots it's ok.

I know that if I had brought a friends with archery we would have killed him easy

when i say more then 120 it mean when u wear shadow and u use just bandeges with out pro and ra

that how i hunt them if u use verte and pro and ra and goof weap every1 good can melle them :S

yes I guess they can

Feanor I would like to recommend the battleaxe to you all I do is just go front keep on hitting him and keep on healing! thats it

Yup, from what I hear a ba is the best way to beat a monster (or mage) with RA in melee...

I noticed that when I was fighting it, but my archery is roughly 25 points lower then my sword so there'll prolly be less difference when I'm gm in both

back in the day, Haulkus could mele deamons quite easy, drags too. gm parry and good armor helps.
