KnightoftheRose 0 Posted May 23, 2010 Author Share Posted May 23, 2010 KOTR of super model seraphim fame? I remember reading your builds avidly back in S1. Welcome back to the forums! Oh no -- the supermodel build! I knew that would comeback someday to haunt me Yeh those were the days when I had far too much free time, when we had cracked all the gaming mechanics and algorithms, and we had burned out every "normal" build that we could think off. It got so bad that Gogo, Schot, Robyn and I would go to the open servers and do Hard Core PvP to test out our crazier builds. Somehow deep down it seemed a little wrong tho to be shamelessly killing each other in the name of science Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! it feels really good to be back Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I'll never forget those crazy damage builds in the old days. Overall concept of the regens was completely new. The big "jump" in socketing mentality came when the realization hit home that huge levels of regens could be socketed from a single piece...hence... all of a sudden months of everyone playing the game with Combat Arts that were at three or four...went to 25 -35 overnight. Then you started doing work with your direct damage builds via item mods and then elemental damage... and then the grandfather... SChot's WIDD build Game changers So exciting. gogo Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 "Welcome back kotr!" ^^ Those were crazy times in Underworld. Hehe @ PvP. Reminds me when we were trying out your bleeding gold coins armor against my no blood left to bleed BM. I think it ended with an arrow in mah back, lol. Link to comment

Etherian 76 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) KOTR of super model seraphim fame? I remember reading your builds avidly back in S1. Welcome back to the forums! KOTR, this is so exciting seeing a seraphim speacialist! I am not a speacialist, but definetly see their potential. Yes they are my favorite char to roam Ancaria with...feel free to drop me a line anytime with tidbits of info. on the amazing super modle. Or just drop a line. Would be totally stoked playing with someone who shares the same affinity as I do... Welcome I remain, Etherian I'll never forget those crazy damage builds in the old days. Overall concept of the regens was completely new. The big "jump" in socketing mentality came when the realization hit home that huge levels of regens could be socketed from a single piece...hence... all of a sudden months of everyone playing the game with Combat Arts that were at three or four...went to 25 -35 overnight.

SChot's WIDD build Game changers So exciting. gogo EDIT: would also love to read up on Schot's WIDD build if it is still relevant after Ice & Blood. Edited May 26, 2010 by Etherian Link to comment
Spunky 16 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I believe Schot's WIDD build is in Sacred 1 as it stands for "Wounds Increase Damage Dealt", but I could be wrong though as the name could only be used to look more fancier that "Damage of Enraged Players" or DOEP. Link to comment
KnightoftheRose 0 Posted May 26, 2010 Author Share Posted May 26, 2010 I believe Schot's WIDD build is in Sacred 1 as it stands for "Wounds Increase Damage Dealt", but I could be wrong though as the name could only be used to look more fancier that "Damage of Enraged Players" or DOEP. yeh -- WIDD (wounds increase damage dealt) was the ultimate insane build for HC. The trick was to balance it with the proper leech rate and have your thumb resting on the space bar 24/7. Ahhh, the seraphim builds. My fav was the mounted archer seraphim, where direct damage substituted for CAs. And with a backup sword/shield socketed with leech, and CAs/Combo of RBoL and/or holy light for caves and quests. Hehe -- Super Model Build It started off as a joke, but me (being me) had to find a way to make it viable. I was racing against time before they closed the PLUS servers for UW, and I finally had a decent working beta going on the final day. Wow -- all these flashbacks now -- we really did push the game mechanics to the limit Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Oh man. That Super model Seraphim build you wrote knight was just hysterical. Quite likely the best build I've ever read. Ah... I miss the crazy things we could do in Underworld. So much fun! Widd was sooooo much better than our present, as you say Spunky, DOEP. ^^ I don't think I ever really wrote a build for it in Underworld. I've never been a builds person but I did talk a lot about it on various posts here and on the SIF. Oh and for kicks I made a video of the benefits of Widd with Fireballs. I don't know how I managed to never die, lol. Fireballs Away! Link to comment
