Ummm…wrong?
Let us break this down logically.
Claim: Troll is weaker than Re-Re Rebumal: Unlike Re-Res, Trolls are able to obtain combat abilities. This fact alone shows that Trolls are more powerful.
Claim: Troll is more expensive than Re-Re Rebumal: This claim simply doesn’t make sense. If you’re referring to the cost of repairs, then you are correct in that Re-Res lack of decent equipment means there’s not much to repair. But that’s not really a very strong argument! |

Re-Re’s do obtain combat abilities. Check the wiki. |

Well, okay, sure. They get two skills. Pretty weak ones (comparatively) at that. Doesn’t really bolster the original claim much, though. Log in to see images! |

Trolls get better attacks, and free stat points in Defense to compensate for having to buy more skills.
If you make more Flezz naked and going through forums than you do with equipment, you’re really bad at selecting gear. Plus, Trolls can take off just as much EQ as Re-Res, so this shouldn’t be a disadvantage for them. |

Yes, they are weak attacks. There’s a reason we refer to it as hard mode.
Anyway no one told you to pick Re-re. Balloon edited this message on 03/21/2008 12:49AM |

Actually I think he picked Re-Re.
And…he’s bragging about how they’re good, not complaining about them. FIX MOAR Sancdar edited this message on 03/21/2008 12:51AM |

The first Re-Re attack is almost as strong as Insult and it doesn’t drain a secondary stat. |

My first character was a troll and he sucks, he’s stuck at level 7 because he can’t make money (Dirty Cop on contacts list, Shallow Esophagus has all my money). The troll needs to buy items to refill his douchebaggery as well as health, as a Re-Re I can just spam Drool and Hamsters and use the odd Smileprin.

Do Trolls run out of Douchebaggery a lot? Worst case, you end up using drool/bash/Insult and you’re still better off than a Re-Re. |

I think there’s a point in the Troll progression where lack of douchebaggery is a significant problem, but before that point your attacks are very cheap, and after that point your max douchebaggery reaches a point where you can get through even the toughest forum with only one douchebaggery restorer. It’s just an uneven patch, I think. |

one thing is really much easier as a Re-Re: you dont face a choice very often. So if using your brain does hurt you (and it seems like that when your troll stucks on level 7) be a Re-Re. The only drawback is needing twice the time becoming level 10 and thrice the time to beat the game. |

insert name Posted: My troll has been grinding the weak forums for the last week so I can get deliveries to pay off dirty cop, also to buy consumables to pwn mission forums. Dryhad Posted: This.
I’m further into the game with my Re-Re already. |

Hmm… Let’s see here: Buying every one of the Troll’s useful skills is 25 UP. Buying the weak Re-Re attack is 25 UP. Yeah, those are totally equivalent in terms of power. Log in to see images!
When I beat the last forum as a Re-Re, it took 35 Smileprin XR. However, I attempted it beforehand with 30 Smileprin and failed. That means it took me 65 Smileprin XR to defeat. As a Troll, it was 5 Smileprin XR and three Jimsonweed extracts. Figure out the price difference.
Re-Re is the challenge clbum and is most bumuredly not stronger than Troll. (Well, maybe when the Re-Re bonus attacks were first introduced. They did more damage than Emo attacks. Although, I came too late to benefit from that…Log in to see images! |

Point in the Devil’s Advocate corner:
Trolls, unlike re-res, have a secondary attribute which is required to use our clbum-specific skills, and does require items to restore. |

Amp Zaphrix Posted:
Douchebaggery costs far less to purchase than the difference in healing consumables between the two clbumes. A troll should need little to no healing on any but the hardest Forums. A Re-Re needs healing on just about lvl 3’s and up. |
