Question about slayers verus EoO...

[eekamouse]

EoO: All melee damage dealt to that exact creature type is increased, but the Paladin takes extra damage from all other creature types.

Slayer (taken from Stratics/UoGuide): When used against their opposing group, it would result in the monster doing double damage to the person wielding the weapon. For example, carry silver, and Repond creatures did double damage to you. Carry Repond weapons and undead creatures did double damage to you. Pick your opponent with care!

I assume the EoO statement is true, but what about the Slayer statement. Does it not work like EoO? I thought your damage taken was doubled by all, not just the opposite.

No?

EoO is a bit more hazardous than slayers -

Instead of just the opposing group (if there is one), everything else does double damage.

Stacking the two can be ugly, say if you're fighting liches with an undead slayer & EoO and an Ogre walks up and smacks you... you take 3 times normal damage.

Oh, lol. That must have been what was going on. I didn't think of that... ya.

I was seriously destroying Titans, but getting worked by the other mobs. And then I re-read EoO and wanted to check on the slayer issue as well.

Thanks.
