:thumbsup:

i tried fber... it works but its mediocre at best. any good lv 18 zon or pally should easily win 5-0 if they play right ( with 75% res sorc's dmg is almost a joke still at lv 25)

pretty much its like 25-50 fbs vs 2-3 good charges or 3-6 good ga's

edit... you can not even have a chance if you tele stomp...


this will be true for all 24s, they cannot really beat 18 pally or zon. trap, fissure even, nec, sorc. doesnt matter all still lose.

the only exception, and it sounds bonkers, is tele nado. it wont beat a charger consistently but does better than expected. because it has dogs it can cast to stop charges and stop them from getting away. and tele stomp a bowa with full dogs on her bow side and she's dead. dmg is lowish, but its not terribad.

i believe mine is still alive, ill check.

well "all" is not true... a lv

25 zon >
25 pally>



... imo ( i have not extensively tested it...)

but a level 25...

sorcs / nado druids / hdins* without just going pure charger with hammers? / frenzy barb? ( only melee i might say could be okay since vs lv 18 zons and pallys you would have no shield and would not have access to 3/3/20s yet)/ ss druids? / jav zons? ( psn / cs?) ... psn would be almost pointless with death set and not sure how cs would do... but if this was aloud bow side would be banned ( would be another set of javs and or tele staff)...

when duling a lv 18 pnb vs my lv 24 sorc trade off was he did easily double my dmg (first time a pnb lv 18 necro came off as super op to me... typically there in my shoes where its death by 100 cuts)

trap sins ... would be fun to see how ls does ( i think you can hit around 1-300 ls a hit )... but i feel like people would just make them ph sin's/ mb sins and ruin lv 18s :mellow:

i've made a 120frw?+ feral druid lv13 before for tomb runes (was probably my favorite char) used 10x 7frw/20ar/3 max gcs and wind of steel flail

yea there are obv the meta lv 18 builds ( i have made most... )

this would be a way to spice it up / do something that was never done before... and no offence to lee or honey... but i can only zvz lv 18 so many times before im good.

but using my 15+ year old lv 18s in a new way would be fun if it was balanced enough.

example

lv 18 bowa vs lv 25 Charger would be dumb af and vice versa... but lv 18 bowa vs lv 25 nado druid could be interesting ( i think nado druid could maybe take down a lv 18 charger with zeal? (would be a very competitive fight)

doing the quick math out... barbs would become to gfg for lv 25 vs 18 ( plus they have enough lv gg 18 classes to pick from)

i have built all on that list. but only at 24 not 25.

frenzy was ok i built with dub throw too, libby was OP af ofc, ss druid was ok but boring to play even with shockwave, cs zon wasnt great but ok, trapper is better as fire imo with MB, necro was good for sure just hard to pilot.

goal would be to allow characters that would not overpower lv 18 but be on par with them adding a new dynamic to "lv 18 tvt"
