[Drunknmunky]

i love you

Hahahahahaha.

You caught of me of guard with that word asshole and thanks for the laugh and for almost making pee in my pants. <3: LOL

[Talka]

I'm just gonna hop in and say, I've played 6 weeks on my character.
6 weeks.
And I've seen paladins blink out of gear during my very few jungle parties.
And it wasn't a problem.

If you blink, it takes less than a half-second to target you again. Hell, I just gotta hit the right F-key, or Ctrl +f + [a number]. People can get over it.

[Araelus]

I'm going to deny until I see an ebony panel

Hmm, I guess I meant if you play the piano at the same time as you tank.

OT: It's fun watching Neo plane this candycane person. If a six-week-old WHM can deal with blinking, I'm falling down laughing that people have a problem with it.

macro in fireworks to each of your macros for lulz

[BerenTebogo]

Not reading through the five pages here because something tells me I've read this debate before.

Kandikane is still retarded. Neosutra is still as dogmatic as a Southern Baptist minister (even though he and I are both right in this debate and I do love him <3)

Blink. Do it. It makes you more efficient. If the problem is your mages not being able to cure you then you are better off depending on yourself than you are depending on those idiots anyways. It is a very rare chance that blinking will actually glitch your game. If you fall into this small % obviously you should not do it.

For the vast majority of Paladins you SHOULD blink. There is no valid argument against it unless you happen to be unlucky enough to fall into the very small % of the people who glitch. All other Paladins - maximize yourselves. Make your Linkshell better, faster, stronger. Stop sitting back and hoping other people will pick up your slack. If there is room for improvement seek it out post-haste and implement it.

Now.

Or I'll come for you in your sleep.

P.S.

As a forewarning to Kandikane: your opinions, as terrible as they are, don't register to me. In terms of comparison you, in relation to me, matter so absofuckinglutely little that arguing against me is futile. When your presence in a thread can summon up a horde of people in agreement for no other reason than your name, then we can stand in opposition.

Yes, my ego is that big. Yes, you are wrong. Don't bother.

[Neosutra]

Your own fucking gearsets state that you use homam legs and hands in all 4 gearsets sets that matters. So you are fucking retarded.

Learn to fucking read. Valor+1 hands, Kaiser Legs, and MDB pieces. (And if macroing in MDB gear for when enemies cast magic spells isnt considered blinking, then you are retarded).

My complete idle sets are clear and exactly what I posted. Learn2Read. Non-visible gear swaps are irrelevant because we both swap them. You and I both idle and cast utsu AND flash in homam hand/legs. So you are even more retarded for not understanding what I wrote.

You stated 3 sets and left with a "general" set that was a mix and match of random ass shit. You didnt state what you used any of it for besides atonement build and ichi. Also, Idling in Bmask is fucking retarded.

If I am in haste atonement, I am missing enmity from body/head, but I gain haste from head. Body for most people is only 4 enmity difference. Do you tank in Mach+1? or Hauty/Joy?

If you are in atonement spam and using full haste like you said, but not macroing in emnity pieces, you are missing 4-9 emnity from body, 8 emnity from head. You could get away with keeping haste for flash on head since it is at least as good as emnity and possibly better, but you are giving up the emnity body piece that you so easily trivialize as "only 4 emnity". I know everyone doesnt have hydra haubert, but there is NO reason to not get extra emnity for actions when you can.

You are literally performing an action and CHOOSING to do it with less emnity.. for no fucking reason.

If I'm missing the haste from head, I GAIN 8 enmity for all my actions, which is a good alternative.

At the cost of haste in your attack speed, flash, utsu recast, and damage reduct set. Idling in emnity is -retarded-.

If I'm idle'ing in enmity (you mean body?) I don't. I idle in ares or homam body.

As you should, but you also need to be macroing in that surcoat for cover, flash, and JAs.

Do you not read? My defense/shield set is for ichi ONLY and I swap back to the other 2 sets before the cast goes off. So in that sense, I'm even more efficient than you are.

You dont macro in defense/shield gear for when recasts arent up? OH WAIT, your shadows are never down! And if you think spellcast doesnt bring me from my shield set that is swapped in for ichi back to my idle set faster than you can sneeze, then you are retarded.

march/balld2 is maximizing? LOL, I tank with marchx2 + balladx2 kthx. Protip: recruit more brds. I have plenty of mp and always capped haste.

I have plenty of bards, but even you arent guarenteed a double brd rotation at every event. And even if you are, you can wear more haste in your actions to allow for other song combinations (march/mad istead of march/march for better TP rate). Dont be so dense.

Are you again retarded? IT'S NOT JUST ME who is experiencing this problem. You can deny all you want, but other people have the same problem. So stfu.

I think everyone here would agree you have problems.

Once again, you are an idiot. I'm always at the haste cap, I am either trading off 5% haste for 8 enmity, or vice versa always. Body piece is irrelevant since hydra haub is so rare. Is 4 enmity going to make or break a tank? NOOOO, that's why pld's tank in joy/haut/excal. I actually build tp 1% faster than you do since I use wturban and you use lolaskar. My shadows are usually always up, if not, I switch to damage reduction/shield gear, how am I taking more damage? I either idle in ares or homam, I can't wear both at the same time. So how are you able to achieve more refresh when you yourself can only wear 1 body peice at a time?

This is the most retarded thing I have ever heard. "My shadows are always up, Im always at the haste cap, and I never take damage".

If you are idling in baha mask, then you are losing 5% haste for attack speed. Even if you are capped on recast, you could swap that haste head piece in and swap a march out for a madrigal and increase your TP rate by a good margin. If you are idling in haste, then you are losing 8 more emnity than me on your flashes. As for the askar head vs turban, I am still on the fence which like more, as I dont like a spot that contains 0 defense, and the two options are virtually identical in DoT and TP rate.

You are trivializing body/head haste and emnity, and VASTLY overstating the fact that your buffs are never down. Im not sure what the hell you are tanking, but aparently it isnt anything challenging and you dont need every bit of emnity/haste/acc/attack you can get.

I for one prefer to do my job as effective as possible, you can stand on the sidelines and keep telling everyone you "Keep hate fine". It's clear you need to find the door and get the fuck out.

hay u gaiz ... hay

[kandiekane]

Learn to fucking read. Valor+1 hands, Kaiser Legs, and MDB pieces. (And if macroing in MDB gear for when enemies cast magic spells isnt considered blinking, then you are retarded).

You learn to fucking read. I stated mdb, ja's, are irrelevant because I blink into them. You are not constantly using a JA every 20 seconds or swapping in and out of MDB every 5 seconds.

You stated 3 sets and left with a "general" set that was a mix and match of random ass shit. You didnt state what you used any of it for besides atonement build and ichi. Also, Idling in Bmask is fucking retarded.

You even cast flash with Bmask you said. Why is it a bad piece to idle in if I'm not tp'ing?

If you are in atonement spam and using full haste like you said, but not macroing in emnity pieces, you are missing 4-9 emnity from body, 8 emnity from head. You could get away with keeping haste for flash on head since it is at least as good as emnity and possibly better, but you are giving up the emnity body piece that you so easily trivialize as "only 4 emnity". I know everyone doesnt have hydra haubert, but there is NO reason to not get extra emnity for actions when you can.

That's 4 enmity. . . Do you macro in kaiser shield + macha+1 sword for you flash and cures also? Since enmity is so important to you.

You are literally performing an action and CHOOSING to do it with less emnity.. for no fucking reason.

My reason is to NOT FUCKING BLINK!!!!

At the cost of haste in your attack speed, flash, utsu recast, and damage reduct set. Idling in emnity is -retarded-.

If you are fighting something you can TP on, then idle in haste/attack. Otherwise, use something else.

You dont macro in defense/shield gear for when recasts arent up? OH WAIT, your shadows are never down! And if you think spellcast doesnt bring me from my shield set that is swapped in for ichi back to my idle set faster than you can sneeze, then you are retarded.

Yes I do, again learn2read. I said if my shadows are down, I swap over to defense/shield.

I have plenty of bards, but even you arent guarenteed a double brd rotation at every event. And even if you are, you can wear more haste in your actions to allow for other song combinations (march/mad istead of march/march for better TP rate). Dont be so dense.

You don't always TP on stuff. And when you do, sword merits + sushi is your friend. Fuck madrigal with +61 acc in gear with an A+ weapon and full sword skill merits. Seems to me you don't understand the concept of overkill.

This is the most retarded thing I have ever heard. "My shadows are always up, Im always at the haste cap, and I never take damage".

I never said that. Yes I'm always capped on haste, I switch to shield/damage reduction if I AM taking damage if my shadows are down.

If you are idling in baha mask, then you are losing 5% haste for attack speed. Even if you are capped on recast, you could swap that haste head piece in and swap a march out for a madrigal and increase your TP rate by a good margin. If you are idling in haste, then you are losing 8 more emnity than me on your flashes. As for the askar head vs turban, I am still on the fence which like more, as I dont like a spot that contains 0 defense, and the two options are virtually identical in DoT and TP rate.

If i need attack speed, I wouldn't be idle in bmask you idiot. If enmity is my problem, then I use bmask. . .

You are trivializing body/head haste and emnity, and VASTLY overstating the fact that your buffs are never down. Im not sure what the hell you are tanking, but aparently it isnt anything challenging and you dont need every bit of emnity/haste/acc/attack you can get.

You are over exaggerating enmity and haste for body/head. My haste/songs/buffs are never down. . . if they are for you, maybe your blinkmenot mages should work on haste and song rotation instead. lol

I for one prefer to do my job as effective as possible, you can stand on the sidelines and keep telling everyone you "Keep hate fine". It's clear you need to find the door and get the fuck out.

It's not effective when you're already at the enmity cap. I'm just as efficient and definitely not on the sidelines. I probably keep hate better than you do and I don't look like an idiot while doing it.

[FailureMidgard]

You don't always TP on stuff. And when you do, sword merits + sushi is your friend. Fuck madrigal with +61 acc in gear with an A+ weapon and full sword skill merits. Seems to me you don't understand the concept of overkill.

How do you have +61 acc on gear?

[Siralin]

Oh shit, it's on now.

lmfao this thread is awesome

Bitch Please, You just a flee
I'll scratch you off my balls with my motherfuckin paws

[Colenzo]

why you talkin about having 61 accuracy and sath's balls?

[Neosutra]

This just in: aparently people that blink look like idiots (bad christmas experience as a child?), and using the most efficient combination for each spell/ja/action is only reserved for people that cant tank and thus need the extra haste/emnity/acc/attack (Kandi "keeps hate fine", never has shadows down, is at the haste/acc cap on everything, and always has full mp)...

Also, if you are capped on acc for things with just sword merits, sushi, and the gear you mentioned, then you need to fight some tougher mobs.

[kandiekane]

How do you have +61 acc on gear?

homam body = 15
homam hand = 4
homam legs = 3
homam feet = 6
c mantle = 7
t ring/sniper ring+1 = 14
suppa = 5
ancient torque = 11

that's +65 acc right there

[Colenzo]

D: but dont you have to blink a lot to TP in all that?

Kandie keeps hate better than Neo

It's not efficient if it's overkill. . .

No, because most of all that is NON VISABLE gear.

This is what we call an idle atonement tp spam gearset.
