I just met a wasp or something... I tried to hit it about 40 times and didnt get it hurt one time... have a look:

I also tried with a sabre and two sabres, but its just too fast to hurt for neg

(It also poisons you)

This happened with me also. I fought it for 5 mintutes and it wouldn't die. I finely ran.

Swords won't help much... They're insects

The bad thing about them is, ... even if you killed them: When you have no anti-potions, you are pretty dead too .

Adano Eles · Post by **Adano Eles** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 8:49 am

Yeah, antidote is your friend.

Bloodhearte · Post by **Bloodhearte** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 8:54 am

So...most players can't kill or escape it?

hm, the poison was very strong the first time, even stronger then that of the scorions, but when i attacked it a second time, I easily stayd alive

I like, they can't hit Retlak, i can hit them with my hammer

If they hit Retlak, one blow of the hammer kills them. So they cannot be that durable (obviously for a wasp).

Concussive weapons are needed. Not much skill either.

Oh jeez, but a hammer is so heavy and slow...what Illarion needs is a big fly swatter.

Samantha Meryadeles · Post by **Samantha Meryadeles** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 1:16 pm

Kill them with concussion, as retlak said. and carry some anti dots with you. A warrior should ever do that.

And by the way, mages can summon those wesps

Suddenly my random donation of antidotes to Stephen doesn't seem so random eh?

Berengar · Post by **Berengar** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 7:19 pm

ermm... but why can't you hit them with slashing weapons? Don't know if they have been changed again, but quite a while ago I needed minutes to kill one with a short sword, not because it did no damage, but because I barely hit... no chance at all to hit them with a double axe.
Don't mind concussion being a lot better agains them damage wise, but such a big difference in hitting?
Warhammer=big slow
Double axe=big and slow

Kevin Lightdot · Post by **Kevin Lightdot** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 8:16 pm

Double axe = small surface
Warhammer = big smashing surface

Miklorius · Post by **Miklorius** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 8:49 pm

But a battle staff hasn't a significantly greater surface than many slashing weapons...

Athian · Post by **Athian** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 9:03 pm

a sword or axe are swung on there thin end, where a club or stave is the same thickness in most directions there swung, plus battle staves have heads to widened there surface area and damage.

Berengar · Post by **Berengar** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 9:25 pm

I don't think that a very big axe and a very big warhammer have that much difference concerning the area you hit with... and if it made such a huge difference two handed and bastard sword would have to hit any time, except your opponent was built like a disc

Anyway, I didn't want to start another How-would-it-be-in-RL discussion about weapons, which none of use have ever used against creatures that don't exist...
I meant that a double axe is the slashing-weapons pendant to a warhammer. Both are slow weapons,compared to one handed swords/clubs, but do a lot of damage when hitting, so imo there shouldn't be such a big difference how often you hit. Damage wise, I don't mind huge differences at all (although there are already so many monsters favoured by concussion weapons...

)

Eh...I killed it before it touch me with a staff..just need to use concussion weapons..
