VS

[Righteous]

OK So this is mostly for me and crivens cos we like arguing,

Who do you people think would win out of a duel between level 30 versions of:

Conans Drow Avenger Zakneifeyn Drufey
and
My Drow Assassin Synte'ari Des'raehel

no magic items, just chosen type of armor(base version) and chosen type of weapon(base version)

Personally i think it would be rather close

also just for kicks zak and my genasi storm sorcerer Sha'kian

ps feel free to post your own vs if you feel like it,

Zak is pretty brutal.
Insane, quick to the point, and has no qualms whatsoever about killing anything.
But the big thing about him is that he Crits with a 1/4 probability, or something of the sort.
And when he Crits on a Basic Attack, he deals approx 150 damage, realistically, you're dead in one or two hits like that.
Oh, and he frigging makes Basic Attacks as a minor action.
So yeah, brutal.

But from what I've seen, Syn is about the same.
Insane, a murderer, no qualms about killing. In fact, quite like Zak it sounds like he enjoys it.
He's not so quick to Crit, but openning with his 7[W] attack is going to give you problems.
Mostly because that puts four shrouds on you, and his shrouds dont use up.
So that's an extra 4d6 + 12 damage each turn with a minimum of 3d6 + 9 even if he misses.
And then there are the souls that he stores.

A close match I would say, but I guess we'll see.

The more I look, the more I realise that they are the same character.

Sub-consciously, you have both created exceptional killers, with two completely different classes, with the same traits.

i didnt think this would ever get a reply.

although are you really surprised our characters are similiar the biggest difference is his "pretends" to have morals and all those silly things, whereas my guy makes no apologies for the fact he is and loves being a murderous bastard

mostly from comparing the two, id say whoever wins initiative will have the best chance of winnig, Syns shadow powers and whatnot rock, but zaks tendency to crit...well you know what that does.

the thing i love about Syn is his ability to shred a group without really trying, he can phase, become concealed, turn invisible and become insubstantial, as well as shift through shadows to avoid flanking and teleport himself and an opponent away into the shadow realm(goodbye healer) untill one of them dies, Whereas from what ive seen and heard of Zak he just gibbs everything in his way
