It's only just started, but I suspect it's going to get pretty bad.

Of course, the guy might surprise me and just drop it, who knows? But since it's his thread, I doubt it.

Easier said than done, especially when someone is mangling an age-old style of play older than videogmaes themselves.

All I ask is that he concede that it's a hybrid character, which it is. mad.gif

See, this is why I hate arguing on the internet sad.gif

You can't necessarily force your opinion onto someone. Opinions are opinions. Just let it go if you can kvleft.gif

I'm monstrously stubborn at times.

And opinons can often be changed by a well reasoned argument.

What's the argument about?


A guy started a thread about a different type of "pure mage". Rather than relying on fireballs or summoned critters, this one fights with bound weapons and armour. He thinks that because the weapons and armour and spells rather than actual weapons, this sitll fits the criteria of "pure mage".

I am arguing that the character is at best a hybrid, whose focus is melee combat, not magic, and therefore doesn't even vaguely resemble a "pure mage".

That's pretty much what it boils down to.


This is why I hate arguments on the internet. I do seem to find my way into quite a few of them though...

That's more along the lines of a Battlemage. Bound armor and destruction spells. Yeah, you're using all magick, but you're also raising a skillset not normally in a skillset for a mage.

My argument's better.

And I'm not saying that because it's my argument, but because even on the internet you can be flatout wrong. I'm basically arguing what I've typed below. His includes terms like "why shouldn't?"

That does not make for a strong argument. Something else that makes it hard for me to walk away.

This is pretty much my argument, that there is a fundamental difference between throwing a fireball, for instance, and stabbing someone with a sword, regardless of it's origins.

Yeah, it's a different skillset. If you handed this mage a real sword, he'd still be able to use it. You can't hand a "pure mage" a real sword and expect him to be able to use it. Same with the armor. His armor skill would still be up.

I think I've seen something very similar in a sci-fi movie at some point, but I can't remember what one it was...

The Bay. I think that's the name of the movie I'm watching. It was probably this one. It's about tongue eating louse that have mutated rapidly due to pollution and radiation, and they're so big they're eating people from the inside out

Never seen it. It must have been a fairly old one, over a decade at least...

Damned if I know what though mad.gif
