Fire and Ice Walls

[SD]TurnipTruck · Post by **[SD]TurnipTruck** » Mon Jun 11, 2007 10:51 pm

For a Pure Str. Bowman like myself I am wondering, should I get fire/ice walls? Knowing I can not be attacked without being able to attack using these walls will protect me from KD or Stun and Nukes as long as I them up. Just want to know because I am currently trying to find out how many SP I need to complete my character.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Fire wall fery useful for STR bowers.
Firewall -> Strong bow -> Anti-devil = dead INT.

If you have both walls leveled would you use an ice wall against an int, and fire wall against a str in order to keep the wall up the longest to prevent knockdown/stun?

or Would you rather have the extra defense even though it only lasts for 1 or 2 hits?

Not really. Takes 1 or 2 shouts to put down the fire wall if it is maxed. A pure INT spear will just use the last fan storm book and outlast the firewall.
Idk about s/s though, as I am not one of those.

But yes, firewall is a must because it gives you the first shot. I beat a zerked sosun INT spear by using it.

Heres a newb question. If you are using ice wall against a nuker, does the wall absorb any nuke damage at all?

I watched a fire light nuker who who used fire wall against a bladder. The wall didn't come down in 1 chain and he only had 1 chain maxed, so it was embarrassing when all he could do was a knockdown with no chance of it working waiting for his chain to recharge. All the while he had to tank nuke after nuke.
Would this work as effectively against a glavie?
