And I have no idea why you didn't naturally pair Backpoke with Backstab. Smile


I'm sure I must have at some point, but I was almost sure that Chain Combo was part of it.

Guess I must've not noticed when it appeared. Hurr
This was almost as bad as trying to demystify that valentine's card riddle you came up with ages ago.

Although it was very satisfying to do this move, I think my damage output would have been pretty much the same if I had just used Backstab 3 times in a row.

Although since the Assassin's Dirk makes this combo pretty easy to complete, I think I see it as being more of a "Style" move. Very stylish.

Would you consider changing the text to read as follows?

Assuming Backstab connects all three times, you're right. Given your numbers:

285 + 101 + 398 = 784
285 * 3 = 855

But Backpoke and Assassinate both have higher crit% than Backstab, and the combined MP cost is lower for the Assassinate combo (32 + 12 + 42 = 86 versus 32 * 3 = 96).

Still, the complexity of setting up the combo and its potential interruptability (e.g. via Dispel Spray, which you probably didn't know could do that) warrant better results. So expect a stronger Assassinate next time you use it.

Oh man James

I am not sure Backstab was the best move for that situation.

Can't really fault you for losing -- I didn't think you really had a chance, but you made it a lot closer than I'd imagined.

Still, that battle broke my 6-win streak Sad

Yeah, I don't think I had a chance either.

But I felt that backstab was my best bet for getting insanely lucky.

Actually, my biggest regret there was not all the failed backstabs, but the brick-bombard. I think that MP would have been better spent on super-shock and shrink-ray.

Haha, I love that his minions win the fights, but Slimesworth runs off with the winnings!

Speaking of Slimesworth, he's been incredibly tough after the Brick Bombard buff. Zombie

Has this been up there a while and just I missed it, or is this a new thing?
Either way, I love it.

Might have been a caching thing. It didn't appear for me until I reloaded. It's been there a couple of weeks.

Fortis designed it, naturally.

He's always been incredibly tough. Maybe I should reduce all his stats by 10. (But not his minions'. Oh, no.)

I think my problem with fighting Slimesworth is that I focus on Mugsy and Bugsy too much. I've only actually beaten him once, and that was with a very strong ally.

But then again, it's nice to have a strong opponent available.

hey, since this morning, I have been getting:

Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/.tuum/mogri/slimesalad.com/include/arena-bots.php on line 126


Both trying to issue a challenge, and trying to fight an existing battle.

I first noticed it at about 7:30 this morning. That was the first time I had tried since yesterday evening.

This is almost definitely the same issue OMEGA was having. Sad

I'll do some digging.

(edit) Should be fixed along with the persistent error where the guy with the highest Agi wasn't always going first. Take that, stupid bugs Zombie
