hammerdin, bva, bone nec, windy

if its elemental like light sorcs, bliz, fb or cs zons ill just sorb you ez. mosaic build is elemental damage. if you have to teleport, hit a few times to get some charges the char would already be dead vs a smiter or ww barb or quality hdin. by closing the range for a melee attack your just making it easy.

always remember elemental damage is pvm damage, pk damage is physical or magic.

ow = open wounds = yes
poison = damage over time = no

you have no immunity to open wounds damage... i love it in pk. the higher the level the higher the damage. its a super sexy lovely hidden damage from um in beast, doom, chaos. at 99 its: 306.25×8 or 2450 damage over 8 seconds or 306.25 per second

poison has its uses but never as a main damage. if i am going to pk a es sorc ill swap my inventory with 10 377 poison damage scs. then the open wound damage will drain the life on the es sorc example even faster.

now if you were vs a normal player with a poison nova nec all he needs to do is stack antidote potions, get some max poison res, get basic res safety gear on and you do almost no damage. also fade because it looks cool and you get + res / curse resistance and added damage reduction. how can you most effectively kill the other player that is the way to think.

now if you were on a correct pk build you have limited options in countering.

counter vs hdn :
-cannot slow hammers ;)
kill it faster then it kills you
higher damage lol
have more life to take a an extra hit or 3. (if im on a druid shoot for 9-11k ish with barbs bo and highest oak, fight fire with fire. kill a hdin with a bvc, bone nec, windy, or another hdin. but they are easy to use yet there is so very much you can do with aiming hammers and teleporting into blindspots. its easy to learn the 95% of using a hdin but that last 5% is what makes you shine in pk. if they teleport on you then you can smite them out of the blindspot into your hammer field, you can also chainlock them with foh. you can make it a hybrid with 1 point in charge + 1 in fanata or 1 smite 1 fanta or use a foh stick + hoz for about 1.5k-2k extra ranged light damage to poke players off screen when low low low on life. another away is using guided arrow + fanta + enchant to poke players off screen.

countermeasures:

vs bone nec
slow missles (spirit)
slow missles (spear)
summons to absorb spirits

vs windy
same as nec except nados penetrate summons

vs smiter
clay golem as meat shield + slow
decrypfy
holy freeze
iron madien + bonewall

vs ww bva
clay golem as meat shield + slow
decrypfy
holy freeze
iron madien + bonewall

vs any elemental
max res
sorb
immune summons
fade for curse reduction - anti lower res
slow missles

at this point for the elemental its countered but vs actual pk builds you have limited ability to counter.

do people consider it bm well sure but you cant prevent anyone from not doing it. you have to accept that people can and always attack using the best build to limit the options of the other player in your favor. kill the other player by the most effective means. will people cry lol yes it just means you need to nk them until they leave the game.
