Talk:Abyssal

Trolls?
They look like trolls to me, should they go in that category? 19:33, 4 March 2006 (CST)


 * Of course not. :) ANet borrows the graphical model of one critter for another repeatedly. Aatxe looking like minotaurs, Shadow Warriors are White Mantle Knights without the cape and with a different helmet. :) It's called "component re-usability" in software design :) They drom Dark Remains, they look as overcooked as the rest of the shadow army and they are the "Shadow Overlords" and the "Shadow Patrols" so I have no reason to believe they are troll. In the species sense. In personality, they are very trollish.
 * On a side note, the face on the the "Monster Skill" icon is definitely theirs. --Karlos 19:51, 4 March 2006 (CST)
 * Ah ok :) Haha yeh that is most definantly them! 19:54, 4 March 2006 (CST)

Return of the Abyssals?

 * There was a video from a bit ago, that first one showing heroes has an abyssal in too ^^ &mdash; Skuld 03:22, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Weakness?
now that weakness reduces all attributes by 1, i think the note about weakness being useful should be taken out. lol, dont ask how i ended up on this page XD Thefez 10:44 2/13/07 (PST)
 * Um. It's 66% less damage AND -1 to all attributes. Shido 22:03, 3 March 2007 (CST)
 * oh wow, didnt know that --Thefez 19:51, 4 March 2007 (CST)

Damage
Does someone know what damage they do on an armor 60 ?

About 500 dmg

the fow abyssal dont do 500dmg. maybe 300. attys dont even hit for 500. the worst thing these guys can do is lock down a player and hopefully not a monk. but bodyblocking them is as easily done as it is with attys and regular trolls.--JRyan 22:07, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Unrelated, but...
What if this thing had a fight with a Bladed Aatxe, who would win? 76.100.249.38 01:19, 21 April 2009 (UTC)Razaac
 * Aatxe, ripostes are win <3.75.92.46.118 02:43, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Abyssal Damage?
What type of damage does abyssals do? slashing? blunt? so i can put the right mod on my shield
 * I'm pretty sure they do blunt. They are hammer warriors, after all. Unrelated: kiting from abyssals is impossible. They knockdown with every critical hit, and critical hits are guaranteed when attacking moving foes :< --Macros 04:34, May 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * Snare + walking backwards = iwin. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  13:29, May 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * ^above post= epic win.--[[Image:El Nazgir sig.png|Talkpage]]El_Nazgir 14:23, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Snares? In PvE? That's not damage. In my guild, we run two types of builds in PvE: damage, and UA. We don't think of dying as accumulating death penalty, so much as... regaining all your energy. --Macros 16:48, May 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * Snares can also deal damage FYI. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  19:41, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * But unless it's Seeping Wound Crippling Anguish, it doesn't deal enough damage. --Macros 14:16, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
