Gargoyles.

Anyone else tired of 50 hit chance on gargoyles? Like their weapons are not overpowered enough without being able to hit more often than can be countered? 1 Handed weapons that hit as hard as an ornate axe and swing twice as fast? AND you can chug with them? Please tell me this is a sick joke or a marketing scheme to get people to buy SA and your going to turn the hit chance back to normal? What bull****. I see gargoyle running around that hit my 70dci mage for 30 damage + hitspell in wolf form and do not ever miss?

LOL.

Marketing ploy? Really? Boy are you two YEARS to late to cry wolf...er gargoyle.

Most people who have gargoyle throwers will tell you they don't hit often enough or for enough damage.

Just be happy they took the dismount special away from throwers.

i dont know how everyone seems to think that 50 hci is the best thing ever.
my gargoyle thrower misses.. a lot.. sometimes 10 - 15 times in a ROW.

it seems to miss more at 50 hci then my archer or swords at 45 hci.

@ Nax.... The 50% HCI makes as much of a difference as you'd expect. 5% More hits definately shoudln't be something you cannot overcome. If I had to guess it's not simply a Garg Wolf Throwers offense that's giving you problems, it's the combination of 170 HP, 4 sec bandages, 15+ HPR, 50% EP DEFENSE that allows them to stay alive UNTIL they kill you. Anyway I've seen plenty a mage do just fine vs them. Also..... realize there is an element of rock / paper / Scissors to UO & Thoes chars may just be your nemesis.
