PunchDrunk

Exactly so. In fighting Adrien or Nex or Forza, you can safely ignore the pets because you have plenty of time to deal with them. With Tanya, Fauvette, or Adritaker, you don't have that time. Now if only I can get there before the tourney starts. It'll be tougher this time, because the competition will be even harder and I've got less time starting at rank 20.

So PunchDrunk has made it through the worst of his bad levels, he's level 11 now and can make use of the renforts brute BillySilly (who gets renforts at level 10). It helped quite a bit in the last two levels that we finally discovered the multiple-fights trick, I was able to re-fight two or three relatively easy brutes and expand my winning a lot, I actually got through the front 10 last night and had a blessure left over to throw away on Chuck.

Ow! We'll see what happens when he makes it to untouchable in a day or two, but my guess is this will keep happening for quite some time.

But at least progress will be a little faster now that I have my renforts, the multiple fights trick, and soon untouchable. Not to mention that new victims keep arriving in the lower ranks.

A good day today, 17 fights and over the magic threshold into level 12, Intouchable. So that's the biggest hurdle I've got, but it's still not party time for a couple more levels. I get a nice agility boost to 25 next, and then two levels of rapidite that repair the damage done by armor. Then I hit the second biggest hurdle, Arts Martiaux, and I finally become a great brute again, able to take on Kitty, Chuck, and just about anyone else.

so chuck's lead as second after kitty will be lost

No, Chuck still has a significant lead, he's level 14 compared to PunchDrunk barely being 12. That's about 40 fights. Since it's still a while before I can get a reliable 20 fights per day, if you're getting a reliable 20 you'll pull farther and farther ahead.

It still remains to be seen whether Chuck and PunchDrunk will be evenly matched when they're both, say, level 20 or so. But I doubt you'll fall so far behind you'll lose your rank to me. The only way you're likely to lose your rank is if I win the tourney before you, which is also pretty unlikely given our performances last rank.

I can't kill you now! I'll try again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next...

With your crazy strengh, you won't need to land a lot of hits to kill Punchy, especially if you have more speed.

And you're a perfect cat killer.

PunchDrunk has been struggling as usual -- but I've finally clawed back up to level 16 and got Arts Martiaux back. Unfortunately I forgot to apply the multiple fights trick and I blew my second set by losing three in a row. Just had a brain fade, I guess -- but PunchDrunk is back up to fighting condition at last and can now start challenging good brutes once in a while. Not that he could beat either Chuck or Kitty today. I'm going to stay out of retirement now.

Next comes Peau, which will help turn aside those pesky sais and knives and wolves, then I get the fouet back. I'm noticing fewer thieves in my arena: kruwel and vakol and adritaker of course, pekor and foufou and ludo and legend. Kemkem must be hiding in there somewhere. Then I get my serious agilite levels, tornade, and herculeene. I'll be lucky to get that far.

It's been a while since I posted -- I'm up to 23 and have got all my agility back plus tornado, and will get herc in two days. It's also been pretty smooth sailing with training, about a week of 20-fight days, up until yesterday, when I was upset twice by Nexgokumelun. He's up to that stage where he's really dangerous with sai and fists, but I've got little choice but to try. Kitty is now way out of my reach with AM, but I've discovered that Brut4l is an easy win for me. Once I get Herc back, I should be winning comfortably against Adrien and Mohican and Chuck. Feeling good about getting Cri at level 26.

The rank should be up to 64 in a day or two, though, and it's possible that tourneys will appear. I don't feel like PunchDrunk is ready without Herc, but who knows?

Admins are working for tourney in BL but maybe they'll start when you have more than 100 brutes in LB. Adrien, Mohican and Chuck ? It's my favorite food too. Very Happy

Brut4l's path in BL doesn't seem the best to me.

You'll have enough time to recover your Hercu.

Poor Darky, and I'm crushing him in Kingdom at the moment as well!

* * * * * * * * * * Posts : 1123 Join date : 2009-10-23

Well I certainly have recovered my Herc, and now I've got Cri-qui-poutre as well. So I'm finally on a new path. Here's my first 3 fights with the new skill:
Adrien69: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/145107111?chk=d6ce
Tanya: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/145108170?chk=e493
Mohican: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/145108551?chk=0a67

I also fought Momochi and he beat me, but I can't get back to the fight. So, it's not magic, but it's nice to have and with luck it's going to open up a better path than last time. It'll be nice to get rid of Nex's bear right off.

I'm noticing some tough up-and-comers; Athena is very hard for me to beat and now Albertintine has gotten quite good, both of them by virtue of contre/shield; Albertintine has crap weapons but implacable, Athena has the knife and I think maitre, both are really strong. They're basically clones of Vakol, who I beat today oddly enough. I also noticed that Djanfi found perseverant, good for him but without strength he still won't beat me.

Ouch ! Tanya's hammer is still something.

I don't have many news from the up-and-comers. Fights where I crush opponents are not this fun. I don't think Athena is strong enough to beat me but perhaps I should try her. Albertintine is not extraordinary. Djanfi is really a small can compared with Kitty.

My fun mainly comes from fights with Ludo, Rush and Truque.

Important choice: the first new level on my new path presents these options:

Chien A vs. +3 Rapidite

Please let me know your opinion. I'm leaning toward the rapidite, but a dog might protect me from a few nets and marteaux-pilon, absorb a hit every fight, and so on. I would lose 12 vie points, and then gain 2 back with the level, giving me 143 vie. What do you think? Of all the stats I could get, rapidite is the least useful, since I get no bonuses or synergy effects from it at all. It would raise my rapidite to 10, which isn't even enough to get me an additional shuriken toss.

* * * * * * * * * * Posts : 1125 Join date : 2010-09-15

I would take the dog. A dog could be precious against a perseverant BF flail, a BF mug with MA... ect

Afterall, you're not vita-type so it doesn't cost you a lot to do this.

Sure you need a little bit of speed but you're not in a hurry to take it. You need more some hp than speed.

Subject: Re: PunchDrunk Thu 17 Feb 2011, 18:06

Hmm even rapidité wouldn't harm when you pick the big sword my vote goes to the dog as well as I think pets are necessary in higher levels as a defense wall. Especially as you miss survival or increvable yet.

* * * * * * * * * * Posts : 1123 Join date : 2009-10-23

Well, to play devil's advocate, how many of those hits a dog would absorb are hits that I would dodge anyway? Dogs can also be wasted on turtles who just take them out with contre/6th attacks, not to mention bombe/cri. And if I'm trying to stack vie, why give 10 points away?

Subject: Re: PunchDrunk Thu 17 Feb 2011, 18:28

Well I have always a smile on my face when my opponent uses his (fierced) hammer skill attack against one of my dogs... Wink

Well, it's like an insurance for car. You pay some $ if one day, you have an accident, you'll be happy to have it. Same thing for a dog. 10 hp is the price to pay for your brutal life insurance. Very Happy

Of course, you hope you won't have any accident but you never knew in this random flash game.

Subject: Re: PunchDrunk Thu 17 Feb 2011, 19:49

True
dog is good decision
chuck has sang chaud and attacks twice ( 2 turns in a row)
so a dog will absorb one hit when fighting you, and usually first hits are on target Wink

Dog it is!

MissCAT: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146379932?chk=b004 absorbed the net
Brut4l: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146380109?chk=4b0b absorbed one trident hit
Perfect: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146380360?chk=7bc9 absorbed one hit and net
Kruwel: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146380716?chk=ec8c absorbed one punch
Chuck: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146381001?chk=4fa4 absorbed one punch
Pekor: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146381307?chk=1605 absorbed one attack
Kemkem: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146381533?chk=441f absorbed the net
Suzy-one: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146381758?chk=6f17 did 1 point damage, bombed
Nexgo: http://labrute.muxxu.com/fight/146382066?chk=01ec absorbed one BF attack

So, no appreciable difference in most cases, as most of these fights were blowouts anyway, or losses. Many of those attacks would have missed, although one punch from Kruwel is no small thing and usually pretty accurate. I think the loss of vie was not a factor in the two losses.

Subject: Re: PunchDrunk Thu 17 Feb 2011, 20:47

you cant kill me?
you did twice Very Happy

So today was Punch's first day without jetons. He got 10 fights in, the last one on Kitty, and got a new level... 3 rapidite vs. 2 endurance/1 force. I took the endurance/force and now I have 16 force and 156 vie, so basically it erases the hit I took from the dog last level. The dog isn't bad, but not so great either.

I'm wondering at this point, how do you purchase a MTPass? I don't really want to spend more on jetons, but I have 5 left, and if I got 100 more it would come out even at 7 days of extra fights. If it's only a couple bucks I might do it, but I have no idea how or where to purchase a MTPass. Can someone explain it to me?
