    If the bm and veno are the same lvl than that nix would take a pretty nice chuck out of ur hp even if u are heavy armor unless u alter marrow phy but than take a bigger chuck of damage from the magic nuking.
    Im not sure for arcane venos but Bms fall pretty fast. Well the ones my lvl do.
    I send nix and hit the bm with about 1-2 magic attacks than they die.
    If they have a charm, its still pretty easy.
    My fox form also give me close to HA phy def also and with my soul transfusion, metabolic boost and soon (i hope) bramble hood, its a hard combo to beat cuz i never die from a stunlock.
    plus that 70% less accuarcy from befuddling mist maxed is super sexy :D

    And i think if its a dragged out pk most ppl will start fighting in the air. Am i wrong?
    So ur speed skills wont help. But i could be wrong cuz i am a lvl 5x noobie XD.

    Arcane Veno going into the air is a bad idea... dragon+True Emptiness= 8k damage

    most meler's that do ant serious pvp also will invest in a max speed fly mount

    also you assume we're going to follow you into the air most bm's just either walk away or dragons>true emptieness>farstrike you out of the sky

    i find its best to concentrate on the veno while using aoe stuns and a feew knockback skills on the nix with a little practice its easy to knock that burn bird behind a rock or or somthing where it'll get traped

    i did kinda say this already(redundant posts ftl)

    if nix's where no threat why would vemo's invest so much in them?

    i may not fear the nix but show it the respect it deservers or it'll toast ya pretty goodb:surrender

    b:bye

    @ _Miku_: at your lvl it does, yes. Wait till you get 80+, the nix wont take down any BM for you.

    Please ppl, use ur heads. The nix is a threat allright, but not to HA chars. The veno ITSELF is a threat to them! HA gets nuked by magic, not by physical att. Are you guys scared of Heavens flame? NO! (ok only for its effect rolf).
    If you are skilld you can stun a veno for at least 12 seconds. If you are unable to kill an arcane veno in 12 secs, you kinda fail...
    LA and especially HA is another story. for LA throw in some genie skills like true emptiness, with some practice should be ok.
    Good luck with HA tho... :(

    Alright I have actually gone into pk and fought 8x and 9x veno with Nixed to come out victoriu, here's my advice.

    I have 6khp, and thunderdeath axes. This means I can stunlock and do high spike damage I also cross with swords and pole.

    1st attack - Myriad sword stance, 8 meters range - all enemies within 15 meters have their damage reduced by 50%. Got an HP charm? some pots? good, for 15 seconds you basically have immunity.

    Spark pot - you guessed it, 'drakes bash' you see a little green animation on the veno? might be bramblehood it's got 1 second channelling time! think fast - 'smack' you got 3 seconds land the drakes bash.
    Fissure, make sure the nix is affected by the slow
    knockback the nix with a polearm -ignore this if you don't have a polearm-

    for HA and LA venos heavens flame is really needed in my opinion due to double the damage, if you used calamity axes 'heavens flame + zerk + crit' would certainly 1 shot a veno, but would be very rare, yet not impossible.

    pole - sword - axe, take all 3 into consideration there's a reason Bms are blessed with 3 styles (fists are for looks)

    oh btw, 50% reduced channelling speed for 15 second on venos might hurt as well, so keep mage bane in mind (sword skill).

    with 6khp, Im not bothered with 700-800 damage from a nix bleed lol.

    (btw i made most this stuff up on the spot, never actually tried to do it, lol.)
    All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring. We must never, ever be boring.

    Then you did it in a duel.
    It does not work in normal PvP. It only works in duels.
    And I hope to god you weren't testing it on that character and using your cleric to melee people anyways.

    Mage Bane is 8 seconds long when maxed.

    lol myth, fists are for looks? :P

    that's about as accurate as saying that mage bane lasts 15 seconds and that it's actually worth the spark it uses up.
