Repel is broken.

[Folket]

... I do not consider Repel broken. From what I have seen it is very seldom useful. If it was broken everyone would be building pikeneers who I see very seldom.

Most of the spells are useless against a SC so what kind of argument is that?

To me Hero is great ^^ It's so estetically wonderful I would like it even if the story was sh*t (and it isn't at all) Crouching Tiger, and the Flying Daggers, i didn't like.

To me shields make sense, you rise it and hope you are not hit, we can all imagine this as we've seen it in movies so let's not overcomplicate mechanics plz ^^

Yeah repel is a little worst. I can still imagine the game battle as an actual /sample/ of a real battle, so yes, maybe 3 or 4 subsequent attacks don't happen in 1 sec, but in some minutes for what we know, the defender moves the spear around. Still, things like the Dragonflies are supposed to be little, dodgy, and to attack in swarm, so really difficult to me imagining all of them impale all on the same spear like a kebab XD

Actually, the dragonflies land on the spear, but it's so sharp that it cuts them in half just from the force of their own weight. That's how the spear got its name, Tonbo-Giri (Dragonfly Cutter).

...Oh wait, you meant an ordinary spear? Well, that shouldn't happen then. You should only be able to kill a couple dragonflies per round with it.
