I really really hate the new changes. and since brotherhood I get disconnected every 3 clicks ._. I wouldn't call what you did "balance"

@ Geoff, nice BR and health amount.

Oliver is tricky; he's mostly a luck fight. You have to hope he assassinates your companions, and speed around 300-330 makes it a little easier for you to kill him quicker.

Hi, thanks for the advice guys. My speed is around 248 now, but I don't have enough tokens to purchase the hall boots yet, that will be my first purchase. I feel as a Warrior, my ability to do damage compared to a Mage is much less. No matter what my respec's have accomplished, 4k is about the maximum for a Warrior, I lose against top 20 Mage's in the Arena all the time that can put out 6k or more a hit. Only way I can get better damage, my Strength skill is maxxed and my Strike is at 8, so almost there, and I have just 1 in Impale, actually I'm not sure how I can do better, other than put more in Impale, but it costs 30 rage to use. Even taking away from Health and putting 2 into maxxing Strike wouldn't raise much damage, and I'd lose the 2% heal which is all that's keeping me alive sometimes. I wish I could get a 6k hit!

Shikitenshi, yeah, I'm not quite sure what balanced means in this game either, usually it would mean a Warrior has a particular skill that is better than a Mage or Ranger, while each of the other 2 classes have their own particular strengths and weaknesses too. So a Warrior for instance should have a higher health rating or armor (tanking) than a Mage who strength is damage. Theoretically. However a Mage can have (all of the above), high Health, Damage, AC, etc. I've tried about 10 different builds on my Warrior, and no combination is enough, including lucking out when Oliver assassinates your companion and not your character, nothing can beat him, I simply cannot do enough damage to him in time, perhaps there is something out there I'm missing, any Warrior out there that can regularly beat Oliver please tell me how...:-)

Nice! Hmmm...I guess you could call it "luck" either way then? Hopefully we can both get past him on a regular basis, good job on getting him, I've given up for now...

I tried today with luck and critical bonus stuff . purple failure lol.so I'll say it's impossible for warriors unless they have at least 50 k health and God knows how a high damage. I had 40 k health and it was zero worth ,the 2 assassinate were 54k . the luck helm didn't help at all , I had just one critical each time . maybe if we had no number limited tries and could try to beat him over and over we would have a chance even with the bad build of the warrior.but " luck, random and balance " in this game are incomprehensible for me :P, seem to never work in player 's advantage. oh and I used potions since day one El, zero effect lol
