Who said magery is weak in town?

Post by the bazookas »

Today, the bazooka brothers decided to determine whether someone (or a group of someones) can effectively kill an enemy in town with magery alone. It seems like a ridiculous idea since each spell only does 1 damage. However, when you have a lot of bazookas in your arsenal, anything is possible. See attached videos.

I'm sure that there will be mixed responses to these videos (although I would hope everyone finds them funny at least), so I am going to preemptively answer the following frequently asked questions regarding the posted videos and/or the bazooka technique:
  • Q. You gUyS mUsT SuXXors at rEaL PvP so yOu HaVe tO ResOrT To ThIs LAmEnEsS!!
  • A. That's not a question, you doofus!
  • Q. Why don't you PvP for real like everybody else?
  • A(err... I guess a response Q). Who says that we don't?
  • Q. How many of you are there?
  • A. Enough to get the job done... but never more than 3 clients per player (since that's illegal)
  • Q. Is this technique legal?
  • A. It's got to be at least as legal as luring 5(?) balrons onto the top of a keep and sending gates which lead you into the middle of them (casting the gate from below them? I have no idea how it works, but it's a work of ABSOLUTE genius).
  • Q. Why aren't you really answering any questions?
  • A. No more questions will be fielded at this time.

The second video shows the victim's response... All's well that ends well, right? Enjoy.

(Edit) Additional notes: Not a whole lot happens after the initial action at around 3 minutes (although some interesting discussion happens... probably best watched on 4x after that). However, it is very amusing to watch Papa Smurf attempting to destroy our roof-hole plug and continually falling down through the hole on accident and teleporting back up to finish the job.

That is 100% win.

Was funny watching Papa Smurf talk smack too, what a wanker.

Mistah T (a.k.a. the Pity-er of Fools and the Predictor of Pain) is certainly sympathetic to the bazookas cause, but I will not confirm nor deny my direct involvement in running the bazookas.

Per Matron's request, see the attached screenshots. Still, I would watch the RPV if I were you, since it's difficult to capture the majesty of this assault with screenshots alone.

Hurry and recall out!  You might be able to squeeze it in between magic arrow hits!  (of course I'd probably try the same thing if this happened to me.  In fact I'd probably manage to accidently e-bolt myself somehow due to the sheer surprise)

Our first target came too close, and started taking the fire again.  It appears that he boldly sacrificed himself to save his friend.

Two bazookas loot the corpse.  Papa Smurf casts invisibility on our second target, allowing him enough of a window to teleport off the bank.

Yeah... the screenshots really do not do any justice to what was done. The RPV is so much more entertaining and gives a better feel for watching someone get pwnt by magic arrow.

I counted 9 or 10 in the video by using CTRL+SHIFT.

So probably 3-5 live players. Correct me if I'm wrong.

watch the RPV it's worth it, the magic arrow machine gun death is great, he runs around helplessly.
