Re: Duelmasters -- Question on PL's... From: ck257@cleveland.Freenet.Edu (Michael E. Lee) Date: Mon, 02 Nov 1992 19:27:05 +0000 John, You haven't told me yet what damage you do. Little or normal? If you have the hit points, i would use the offhand SH, but i gave up on the offhand SH since it seemed that master lee would end up parrying more than dodging. (another plus for Adventurers Guild, where you choose if you want to dodge, parry with left or right hand, retreat, or ignore attacks!). 6-6 is used by a lot of people. People go 5-7, 7-9, or whatever. How well did master lee dodge with 6-6? Pretty well considering he was the first Grandmaster Defense (grin). When i went to SH two handed, he pretty much dodged all the time. His parry wasn't weak by any means, but his defense just kicked in whenever he was attacked. I'm pretty sure a lot of PLs have favorites of moderate/moderate on their AD overview. I think Fistandantilus (Sharky's size 3 PL) had like low/very low, but he rarely ran like that. Why PL over LU? The real big disadvantage of LU is their defense. Sure, they can start with Adex DEF, Adex ATT, Adex INIT, but in actual fights their defense just doesn't seem to be there. (Of course, there was all those times I had to fight Stormbringer and his freakin Large shield). LU can also run 6-6 or 5-7 like Stormbringer, but they just don't run as well as a PL going the same. It's a matter of opinion..... Mike Lee Up
