Startup strat for returner

[suecita]

Hi!

Played many years ago and used to play elf mystic and elf t/m.
Things have changed I noticed so I really could use some advice for a strat.
Both In protection and OOP.

I plan to go elf t/M. Is that a good idea?

Thanks!

Don't play TM

and If you are going to play TM, don't be elf

[Toadi]

Don't play T/M indeed. T/M have never been good. Try to go Hybrid instead, A/T being the easiest.

Regardless, Elves make fine T/M overall. Assuming T/M can be considered as fine ...

[Palem]

You can play better TM as Gnome or DE

[Toadi]

Well Gnomes and Dark Elves cannot make up for the +1 mana regeneration.
Pitfalls is also handy.

All 3 races do fine T/M.

[suecita]

Well, if magic is my preferred choice of attack, should I go as pure mystic or what?
Are elves the best choice for that? Or dark elfes?

Thanks again!

Until you reach 2.5k acres +, runes will ALWAYS be the limitation on real mage ops before mana.

If your confident in your ability to steal runes then Elf can work as T/M just fine, but you wont be doing as much damage as a DE would.

And yes go Mystic.

elf war hero is way better imho.

make use of your defensive spellbook!

[iadjei]

venom he wants to play t/m and thats his decision.

[WestVenom]

not my fault if hes too chicken to attack,.

[suecita]

First off: I´m a SHE!
Second: It´s not about being chicken, it´s about how I enjoy the game...

all TMs must be razekilled. no exceptions. as they hinder the progress of their respective kds.

Is that how it is nowadays? When I played, I used to be an extremly good contributor during war. And I played in a top KD.

But like I said, many years ago...

Doesn´t anyone have a suggestion on race/pers for a t/m?

[clarey]

Gnome or elf. Allows you to turtle, and if *really need be* you can still have some offence for suiciders. DEs you really need to specialize them, high sci, plenty homes before they become decent unbreakable TMs, imho.

[suecita]

So Elf/Mystic then?

And good build strats, both in and OOP?

Thanks alot! I could really use the advice, it´s pretty different from back in the days...
