How to deal with Army of One - Page 2

One more thing for barbarians: Don't underestimate the usefulness of Deafening Roar here. Stunning a knight for 11 seconds give you enough time to cast Thirst For Blood and another buff of your choice.

Magma blast's DoT and initial hit are reduced by AoO and all damage reduction spells. I just tested this two days ago.

The initial hit CAN be reduced by Army of One yes, but the DoT cannot be reduced by anything except Acrobatics, Strategic Positioning and Windwall.

Well I guess everyone get the picture, when you have an AoO knight you need to find a way to waste time, to use -health skill on him or unresisted DoT.

Lets put this way, 20% blocks is very common, sometimes its 0 -10% sometimes it 30-40% thats alot for a warlock to cope with.
Either way it makes whole lot of difference, especially since knights are equipped with 50 sec AoO and at least 4.5 k health.

Blocks are very random, very very.

Anyway, he said that we RESIST a lot, didnt he?

all it really takes is a good strafe, knight goes into aoo, ill strafe it and normal it, untill aoo wears off then i nuke it with all my powers. (for ranged classes)

even a warlock can strafe a knight, and with a barrier up you can take a good 3 hits before a knight will break it. and with vamp/sk and sadistic servants you'll quiet a knight before long.

honestly im not really afraid of a knight in aoo anymore with strafe its almost dumb to charge down an equal lvl archer 1v1 (considering melee v ranged)
