*yawn* herc topic again -.-

if you know one is better then why would your opinion be favorable to something you know is not as good? that makes no sense. and sorry im gonna have to fall on the side that does not believe you ever used a herc. even if you did it takes a while to get used to.. a learning curve.. just like any other new pet you get. you cant tell if something is good or not in under 24 hours of using it yourself.
i too was reluctant to get a herc because its ugly, but so is the magmite. and the magmite is bigger than herc, takes up more room, and gets in the way more than herc does.
i understand your sentiment about your first real pet that you stuck with. i had one too. a mad wolfling that i got somewhere at lvl 2 (lighter grey than the default one from quest). i kept it and lvld it to 37, at which point i managed to outlvl most of my pets to the point that out of 10 all i had my lvl was the golem. then i got nix, and i lvld it, was mildly content. then i started to just get pissed off that i couldnt use nix in fbs, so i gave in and got the herc, despite all my prejudices against it. and guess what? i liked it. and then none of my other pets mattered. i still have that wolf egg in my bank. but its not in my bag because better things are in its place.0 -
If i wanted to trade a herc pet egg ticket for OP's golem, she would reject??
woow no matter how much i like the little new Honda i bought with hard-earned $$, if someone will trade me a new BMW for it, my response will still be "hell yah!"0 -
I have a herc and a nix. To be honest, I like grinding on single mobs with my golem better. I'm less likely to steal agro from him. However, I do use my herc to farm TT's and AoE grind for the heck of it.
It's two different types of game play for me. Plus I have a special attachment to my golem.
Oh yea my sawfly also has flesh realm ^^.(\__/)

I'm also a Veno with a nix and a herc. And as far as I can tell, there is nothing a herc can do, that a golem cannot. A herc's stats and whatnot are generated at level 1, but increase due to leveling. So while in the long run the herc will be a little bit tougher than a golem; it's probably not significant enough to notice. As far as skills, you can get the skills a herc has and put it on a golem, and voila: free herc.I also have a 2 headed canus, this is one that I got because i liked it, all veno's have their special fun pet. Some just use them less than others.
And as I said on another post: The pet doesn't make the veno, the player makes the veno.
So stick with your golem, you like it; that's all that's important right?RavynSoulle-Venomancer-Dreamweaver0 -

Q, whens the last time youve grinded now seriously? :P and the actual 90+venos grinding in hell, all using hercs to aoe down a dozen mobs at once, lvling faster then the rest of us/on par with zhen except instead of loosing 200k an hour they make more then that.
onyx: a bit tougher? how about twice as tough+, not significant? soloing TTs vs not soloing TTs (SQUAD MODE) is not significant?aoe grinding a dozen mobs? haah. free skills? right those skills are hella rare(5% from each of 5 chests in a weekly dragon raider open pvp event) they sell 5mil+ each , free???0 -
free as in not cash shop. A herc will only have about 15 levels on the herc by endgame. So at level 150, that's not that much.RavynSoulle-Venomancer-Dreamweaver0

Solandri - Heavens Tear wrote: »Different people play the game for different reasons. For achiever-types who want to min-max everything about their character, yes the herc is a must-have. But for people who play for other reasons, it's not necessary. This game is pretty easy as MMORPGs go, and you can fight and win against 99% of the content made for your level with a golem (or even a wolf, or snake, or whatever). Sure it won't be as easy nor as quick as with a herc, but for some people that doesn't matter.
The game is what you make of it. The most common goal is to level and acquire money and stuff. But that doesn't mean it's the only goal, nor the most important goal for some.
Well said.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
Copy/Paste:
Uh-huh... another veno rant thread. Just curious are you aiming for Guinness book of records as the most complained over class? And no nobody complains over how your class operates but yourselves because we simply don't care anymore! Go play have fun and stop this stupid weeping already.

MY OPINION: i like magmites more then hercs.
FACT: hercs are better tanks then magmites.
anyone here see a difference?
Yeah we see the difference perfectly. But noone cares.
I have never seen you in a thread talking about herc and golem. But some people in those threads say it's fact that golem can be as good as herc. That's wrong and the whole point of those 50 page threads. =/

What is this? Flames R US? Give the person a break. Just said that he/she likes a rock dude better. You people can't even let a person slide from thinking/acting differently from you. It's actually embarrassing.
Shoot, if there was a pet scroll that did the ultimate damage ( 2 hitting everything) you would buy it out the shop for $500-$1000.b:chuckle People don't have that kind of money nor the kind of time. That's 2 major reasons. People will always be different and have different preferences. Some like it easy, some like the challenge, etc.
This is a game does it really matter what pet or even pet skills you have?
As long as you can play fine and be happy-go-lucky it shouldn't matter.
I mean really. You guys are arguing like whos god is better. Does it matter? Will they listen to you even if you come to the door and throw a bible or whatever in their face?! No, it makes them pissed. They feel insulted and you are insulted because they can't see it your way. And that's why everyone is mad in the world. That's why you go to Perfect World. But now you guys are ruining the perfection with your silly "My way is better I shall flame you until you realize it. Hahaha!" Grow up. It's like little kids and GI-Joes vs Barbies.
Let people live/play how they want. You guys are simply childish.b:scorn Tsk TskThe VenoX: Heavy Pure Melee (Axe User with a hint of magic) Venomancer and Proud

Fail Veno? Or low level Veno/Herc. At lvl 63 I can tank the whole FB just fine and I'm LA.
I too think the herc is fugly and even though I have it, I still have my magmite. At first I was completely against getting Herc due to aesthetics. Then my fiance and I tried FB 51, with the golem.... at lvl 60+ and we got owned =/
That's when we started our 3 week of farming hay on noob venos for money. Now I love the damn ugly blob. Owned FB51. it was a joke, tried out FB59.... pretty close to a joke.
But seriously if the person wants to keep their golem it's their choice. You can't force your opinion on anyone. Man, so many Q_Qers and annoying people with their misplaced biased opinions.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

correct, because its prosecutions job to prove him guilty.

Not quite true, it depends on which legal system you are looking at.
Some legal systems you are guilty until you can prove otherwise.
Even in the US legal system, when it comes to immigration, the government can arrest you and charge you of being in the country illegally (even if you are a citizen), and it is up to the defendant to prove his innocense, by providing paperwork/birth certificates etc.Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures.

in all -western- style courts, its innocent until proven guilty.
and that case of immigration, if INS has probable cause they can hold you until you can prove otherwise. illegal immigrants **** things up for normal tax payers, especially if they get hurt! they goto an ER, with total anonyminity, and the medical bills come out of the tax payers pocket! iif these tards would just come over on a work visa, life would be so much easier. theyd make their money, pay a few small taxes to the govt, and gtfo.0 -

You did not say western style on your previous post. With that clarification made.

Lol isn't that a friend? You tell them about the game you play with eachother in the game lolz. You go over for sleepovers and stuff. It's not so impossible that is if you don't have any real life friends. That could be a problemb:shockedThe VenoX: Heavy Pure Melee (Axe User with a hint of magic) Venomancer and Proud

Well, for example, if you have leveled your magmite's skills, magmites are superior for single-target land grinding than hercules.
Hercules has reflect, but its bash does not hit quite so hard (unless you have not leveled your magmite's bash), and you need to be letting it keep its tanking skills, which also limits its damage output.
Magmites have higher base damage than Hercules which matters for skill use, and you can give them several offensive skills without ruining them.
And, blindyeyes? Some other pets (including some other land pets) can also excel in some roles, if people care to be developing them sufficiently. (But I do not want to veer too far off topic here.)
Anyways, if you want to be thinking about this kind of stuff, you might want to think about downtime between battles (skill cooldown, movement speed), average battle length (health, cooldowns, regeneration, pet delivered damage vs. your own, and so on), aggro management (movement speed, attack range, damage delivered, typical time before first heal), and basically ... all your activities.
Hercules is the best land tank and you can not do better for some battles, but its so very much not the best everything.0 -

I am level 68 Venom and my main pet is a Florafang level 68 as well...
Was killing immortal Pyro in Swamp earlier ( level 67 mobs) and could easily kill 4 at a time... I wear Arcane only and have no points in Vit, only some of my gear has + HP... so it was fun and I was proud
Then later tonight, we did my 20/20/20... my Florafang .. ok.. with lots of heals... tanked some of the mobs no problem ( Adawolf, captain etc...) sometimes.. it was close call... but.. it was fun
I don't wanna tank a boss as per .. when I chose this class.. I chose it for the ability to pull, and help with DD... as well as beeing able to solo and be relatively more "free" to have my eyes on my daughter while pet tank ( still caused me some death as per didn't notice pet going too low ROFL.. ) but.. it's my own death and I don't risk to kill somebody else 'cause I had to go AFK to catch my daughter or whatever as per I can solo almost everything ( other than bosses)
I know that Hercules would probably makes my life so much easier.. but what's the fun into that? It's fun to always live on the edge.. and if I die.. so what... I just rinse and repeat
My goal is not to be the top Venom on PWI.. Almost a year I play ( took a 3-4 month break)..and am only level 68... and I have a level 50 archer.. and a level 31 BM.... I have fun... I escape the stress of motherhood and I live my social life as per I cannot go out most of the time....
I experiment.. I have fun... and I help my friends
And if I cannot do a certain mob or boss... well.. I wait until somebody can help me.... even if I am many level behind on it I still can play and have fun.....
That's my opinion and my way of playing.. thankie ))
Now flame me for beeing weirdo and stupid b:chuckle0
