List of 40 solid melee-oriented characters on Khyber

[Strakeln]

grumble. I freakin ninja'd myself.

[Strakeln]

Okay, so we keep trying to do top 20 lists and all that, which don't usually work out too well. So let's try something new.

Rules:

1. "Melee" is open-ended. From the intimitank to the tempest to the survivalist to the specialist to the generalist... they all count in their own way.
2. To make the list, a player/character must be nominated by one person and confirmed by two others
3. Any poster may nominate and/or confirm any number of player/characters
4. Nominated player/characters must be currently active (playing DDO)
5. A player may not nominate or confirm him/herself
6. Feel free to include a story or something about the player/character
7. Confirmed nominations will be listed in alphabetical order

And so, without further ado, the politically-correct, completely subjective, democratically-designed, alphabetically-ordered,

A list of nominations off the top of my head:

- Meatwad
- Irishfist
- Kyoshiro (he's back! I think)

In-actives that aren't eligible for the list (but still get an honorable mention):
- Tija
- Axer
- Thistles
- Illuminati (moved from nominations)


I'm sure I'll come up with more as people poke their heads into the thread

[Jay203]

oh noes, more of the top [insert some random subject here] of khyber thread!!

[ShadowFox1978]

Boldrin in his many guises. I will go with Pigsticker.


Seconded:

Meat and Illuminati

[Desteria]

any of the ones I group with regularly

[Boldrin]

Babbette/Sassy , since Sassy was my inspiration for Piggy. Second Kyoshiro and Third for Meatwad. Looks like Meatwad is the first to make the list. Did Pyce leave again? lol. I was running with him daily for a while then noticed he disappeared, sucks cuz he's a good guy and player.

[InfidelofHaLL]

Illuminati need a honorable mention cuz he hasn't played for about 3 months now

[renegade117]

Alexandro, Maxgore, Vikconis, Slink's Ranger, Furby's Ranger, Mofu, Pinpric, Riot, Dimz, Ghinsuu, Eyzaiah, (sorry if I missed any). I would proudly and easily duo Rainbow Elite (and any just about any other non-raid) with any of these guyz! Oh, and of course Illuminati if he ever gets his butt back in here!

[Boldrin]

Why duo, it's easy enough to solo

[renegade117]

Solo is not as fun! I can only talk to myself for so long... Also, not just Rainbow just thought that was easily reconized...

[Boldrin]

You get 5 other people in party and have each of you soloing a different quest, lol, that's good times, all the chat you want and lots of fun when someone dies and you just pick on them instead of rezzing them

[babygirl]

only one I can think of right now is meatwad, on a caster perspective tukaw kicks some a** there are others but blah!

[Kahoun]

Ahh a thread with twice as many slots to manage the ego overflow of the other one, good idea.

[Strakeln]

Confirmations from me:
- Pigsticker
- Dimz
- Tukaw

also, don't ask me why I called Meatwad Meathead. I was tired.

[Strakeln]

Well, the idea here is to compile the community's thoughts on who are solid melee players. It's not a ranking, nor is it a be-all-end-all list. I'm sure I can find some posts of yours where you say that you think someone is a good player...

Why not give it a shot? Or do you not know any solid melees?

[uhgungawa]

OK Dang it, i'll second Pigsticker. Someone has to help the Lil Gimp

[Gornn]

I'll confirm Pigsticker, Tukaw, and Dimz.


I will also nominate Incise.


That freakin' guy is like a blender.

[Varr]

I very much like the roll Emili fills as a pure fighter. Does all the things a party needs to be better, and still brings the heat. Not alot of fighters will defer damage to para or curse as an example. And when it is killing time, down they go.

Dimz is a no brainer if he still needs confermation.

Shamgar is a wf barbarian animal when your in the mood for pure unadultered dps.

[Riot]

I'll lend 2cp to this list.

Dimz
Odysius
Rezik
Aijikora (aka Faylinia)
Inkdrop
Garund
Martis
Nellethiel
Arachne
trilliana
