Do you use Son of Wind? - Page 4

makarios68 · 10-27-2007, 02:51 PM

I used son for very first time a couple of days ago.

I'm undecided yet as to wether i like it or not.

It has saved me a couple of times, but i'm aware whilst i'm being saved by it that someone else is getting the attacks.

Also, as DM pointed out, you can still be killed whilst using it.

A couple of times spells have gotten thru my son and finished me off.

And then there's the mana....

Hmm, not sure.

Happens to me all the time whenever someone in the party uses it :P
Often during worst-case scenarios too (i.e. 2 hunters with pet and SoW divert their attention to me).
Camouflage puts me in the spot as well at times, but I really can't blame my mates for using it. It's either their skin or mine. The most I can hope for is that they'll look out for me too.

One more post...

I recently maxed evasion in place of tricks.

Oh, i miss my tricks!!

Evasion is good.

Tricks are good.

If only i could have it all!!

Obviously, they are far from being fool-proof - with 30% resistance.

But they sometimes allow you to carry on fighting when you would've died without them.

i feel better useing son of the wind cuz i know i wont get hit as much

There should be one more option for the poll, "Not high enough level to use SoW"
