What could a lasher do? Their weapons might have better damage, but are they more likely to land hits?

Oh I wasn't suggesting that they could accomplish anything. I was merely denouncing the goblins for their half-arsery.

[NecroRebel]

What could a lasher do? Their weapons might have better damage, but are they more likely to land hits?

Practically speaking, whips ignore armor and are very capable of breaking bones and even skulls, nearly effortlessly. They're the strongest known blunt weapon in the game, possibly the strongest weapon period, and as such goblin lashers are each about fifty times as dangerous as other goblins since their strikes are actually likely to do something.

If they never land a blow, of course, that's all pointless, but even against super-champions somebody can get a lucky hit sometime.

So, logically that shouldn't be possible, physically that shouldn't be possible, and realistically... that shouldn't be possible.

But by Urist's Beard, it happened.

[GoldenShadow]

This guy has been training for 15~ years straight. Every new recruit is trained by him before joining the regular army. I have a 2nd teacher too, but hes a bit slower. Only level 13 teacher instead of 15.

[Chronomancer]

This guy reminds me of a Space Marine Primarch.

[Naryar]

As expected. It's good that dwarven champions are unstoppable killing machines. Makes for epic stories. Also, conservation of ninjutsu in full effect.

Now have him fight fifty Giant Desert Crossbow Scorpions.

He'll eat them for breakfast. Also you can't do this in fortmode.

It might be possible if you throw enough crossbowdwarves into your scorpion pit. You do have a scorpion pit?

[GoldenShadow]

I havent seen a scorpion in-game yet, let alone a giant one.

[Loud Whispers]

There are no scorpions. Only Giant ones and even more Giant ones.

[GoldenShadow]

I should embark on a desert next time. The forest embarks I choose are limiting which wildlife I see.

[KodKod]

Oh you're missing out, Giant Desert Scorpions are lots of fun.

The strength to rip a warhammer out of a dwarves hands and beat him to death with it, the dexterity to fire a crossbow if it should manage to get ahold of one and some ammo, and a deadly neurotoxin guaranteed to kill anything that has blood with only a single prick of the tail.

Basically they're the chosen children of Armok, created when his own blood spilt upon the hot desert sands.

i just did some retarded arena testing and everytime i put up platinum whip squad vs platinum hammer squad, the hammers won by far.
could someone else check it out in .07?

[Urist Da Vinci]

No lashers? That's not a real goblin army.

Now have him fight fifty Giant Desert Crossbow Scorpions.

I just tested a single grand master everything, fully-steel-armored dwarf against 50 GDCS in the arena. The dwarf was able to kill 34/50, leaving 16 survivors. The dwarf suffered from exhaustion due to the constant dodging.

I repeated the experiment, this time selecting a vampire dwarf (immune to exhaustion). It won with no injuries.

Platinum's ridiculous mass will do a lot more for the hammerers than it will for the lashers. Try iron.

[GoldenShadow]

Try it again without everyskill at grandmaster. Match my champion's stats and skill level if possible. Mine has a ton of stamina.
