when eval+anat = gm wres... so it looked like 100/100/25 gm mage/eval/med/resist + anat/healing/parry
it was kinda a funny build but with pots, a chaos shield, and the bandaid heals kicking in the build had the ability to just keep going.. forever lol - good luck hitting Eze with any sort of wep dmg if he had on magic leather too (gm parry and a chaos/order shield gave something like +30 def or some shit and dropped your chance to hit him with melee to something like 15%) It's really anoying to be fighting a mage that you cant hit with melee and so long as he kept the poison cured the bandies would heal em for the usual 60-80+ dmg
Croc built a funny duel mage when mindblast did out of control dmg to imbalanced stats.. i know you remember the 45-60 dmg MBs at the cost of 15 mana + a clumsy/feeblemind (on your typical 100/100/25 mage/dexer)
So Croc had it something like 90 str 75 int 60 dex b5 mage+archery/tactics - looks strange I know.. but it had balanced stats for the time so MB only did like 5-10 dmg - toss on the GS/GD and all of a sudden it was a mage shootin off arrows at the speed of a dexer in armor.. pretty wicked if using a magic bow/hxbow(the +archery skill = never miss).. with good counter casting and mana conservation it was viable to run arround as a mage with only 75 int lol (85 with bless/cunning) because it was slinging arrows out at the speed of a dexer lol
So Eze made a mage that countered Croc's ability to sling arrows at a fast rate.. he made a mage that would take those arrows and just shrug em off - and Croc's build wouldnt have the mana pool to ever put Eze's build down on spells alone
