Ineffable Wingbolt Spddin Ignis Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Do unstable roamers actually have gaming value, or are they just for blowing up merchants that refuse to trade with you. Ussually if someone refuses to trade with me i shape several U-roamers and sorround the person with them before absorbing one of them. Is this their only use or do some people use them in combat?

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 That's how some people use them in combat. Shape them and send them off to suicide against a foe. I don't really see the point because they can't gain significant levels and they are a danger to you if you can't keep them away from you when they detonate.

Well-Actually War Trall Acky Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I use them when I need a field of mines cleared, and that's only when the mines actually detonate when creations are near. But they pretty much are useless. I would much rather make Vicious Roamers. The Great Archon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Barzhal Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 That's really cool! I never thought to use pyroroamers like that. You can selectively kill off friendly characters without consequences. I thought they were useless, but now I'm impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL! That's actually a good exploit you have there, especially if you want to steal a merchant's goods with impunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chittering Clawbug Potato Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I just tried this out in G1... I managed to kill Ellrah without angering the awakened Is there any way to make the damage they deal when they die increase? Does strength affect this or something?

Ineffable Wingbolt Spddin Ignis Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 I actually dont know...its definantly worth testing out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Spddin Ignis Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 I also make creations go rogue sometimes for fun. It doesnt work in 1 or 2 because the entire area will become hostile if you attack your own creations. TO make them go rogue i make 1 creation like a beta or alpha wth no intel. then i make a glahk with intel. i make the glaaahk sting the alpha till it runs in fear then just keep skipping turns until it goes rogue and kills everything in its path..it really fun.

Well-Actually War Trall A less presumptuous name. Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Shaper Spddin, thank you for these wonderful, er, terrible ideas. I have no idea how you could have come up with them. Nonetheless, I will have to try them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Artemis~ Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 as i am not surprised that you would come up with this idea, this is still kinda sick. "would you like to see my-" [pyroroamers surround the poor merchant with only "normal" goods] "um...what's going on here? what are you doing? no! wait-" [absorb] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
