I only took down 9 people and described the fights, the other 6 were meant to be off screen encounters. You also did I post describing taking down tons of people, ending it stating that he had just taken down his 12th man. So if you're trying to throw shade at me or something, at least try to remember your own posts.Akio said:
People who plays sports with asthma also have modern medicine to allow them to do things just as well, or at least very close to what other people do. There is absolutely no medicine for it in GoT, even mild asthma would be a huge problem to any kind of extended physical activity for him.Akio said:
I have no idea how strong he is, I didn't think he would completely disregarded the knife at his neck and would be slightly more willing to back off, if not I'll editHypnos said:
Death is just a way to get closer to our Lord and saviour the Black Goat, all that knife is doing is bringing him closer to his God.Akio said:
Fair enough, I forgot he is insane, I'll edit.Hypnos said:
Wouldn't call a pious person insane, that's just ignorantAkio said:
Insane? I prefer the term enlightened.Akio said:

Now take that experience, make it several times more intense, wear some armor that probably weighs somewhere around 10-15 lbs (leather armor isn't as light as you probably think) and do the fighting with a spear that weighs somewhere around 5lbs.Akio said:
No problem man!TheAncientCenturion said:
Hard to do since I'm a 130 pound who stands at 5'8 and have nothing on Caydens physic. And I expected 12 poundish, there were more then a few leather workers among other things at Ragnarok, but I've been in the main battleline and some insanely large fights and with some breathers in the fight themselves, I did fine, I percipated in every battle but one in my first Ragnarok and that's because I accidently got smacked across the face and got pretty bloody.Leusis said:
First thing I'll say it's fun as hell and rivalrys can actually get kind of intense between factions. Most days depending where you live what you will be doing is practice sessions which usually involve individual battles followed by capture the flag and group battles from my own experience. All this training is in Preparation for Ragnarok which more often then not is a multiple day competition of constant melees, war for territory, and training and learning camp. Some of the more experinced member can also try for Knighthood which is really hard to do and involves quite the beating and a lot of skill.Leusis said:
This sounds kind of surreal.Akio said:
The biggest battle at my last Ragnarok was clan battles, we saw a good 400 combatants. These battles are not small and some of the people there have been LARPing 10 or 20 years and actually learned to make their own gear and such. Free for all's are a mess, usually smaller then clan battles because they reset basically at the end of each one and people can chose which ones they want to fight in but they are messy and people get hurt a lot. There's a decent amount of material meant to keep people retively unarmed and sets of rules but it's easy to forget the rules in the course of your 8th free for all melee of the day and you have massive bruises because people will not hold back their blows, their actually encouraged not to because it's hard to judge a hit that way. The swords have some wait to them to, the worse might be a good spear weilder though. Once I caught caught right bellow the collar with a good stab, I honestly couldn't breath for a moment and I bruised even in training. Good community though. Guy who hit me stopped and made sure I was alright and off the field before going to wail on some other poor soul.Lancelot said:
*snorts* When I got my nose nearly broken by a flailing shield the guy who hit me apologized and when I said I was alright of the still going battle (I was near the edges) and some guy checked me over to make sure nothing was broken. I sat out round 5 to fix a bloody nose and went back in round 6. I think the most I've ever seen done is one guy got dropped mid combat at Ragnarok in the center and they stopped the battle for a moment to get him out and resumed after a few seconds. They dont stop the battles for one person. At training people may stop and make sure your OK for a couple moment but if you feel battared they will probably tell you that learning.Leusis said:
