After Astaria used a teleport or blink to enter the Iron Fist formation, she used a variety of AOE skills to cut their numbers down while inconspicuously moving in a way to make them train behind her.
[88. WhiteStripe]
Dude, did she just set that guy up as some sort of lightning rod to hit multiple others with what I'm assuming is chain lightning?
[89. Belladonna]
Yeah, I'm almost certain.
[90. Abbyulous]
The fuck.
[91. Adventurer Passing By]
Insane.
[92. Adventurer Passing By]
And she is doing that while tracking everything else that's going on?
[93. Adventurer Passing By]
Damned monster. Op as fuck.
[94. Adventurer Passing By]
And the army of idiots is now just a handful. Yeah. Iron Fist is fucked.
[95. Adventurer Passing By]
I wonder how badly this will ruin their rep?
[96. Adventurer Passing By]
You think many of their current lot will stick around?
[97. Gashly]
Lot?
[98. Adventurer Passing By]
Members.
[99. WhiteStripe]
Nah, I'd be outa there immediately. I swear down this iron fist guild will be the Caelus jesters soon. Just wait for the memes to start.
[100. Gashly]
She has totally won this. Look at them all too afraid now to attack. As one would expect from a horror themed character.
[101. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
Don’t be too sure, look behind her.
[102. Adventurer Passing By]
One good hit and she is out.
[103. Adventurer Passing By]
Sneky snek.
[104. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
The guild's hopes and dreams are placed upon your shoulders Mr. Assassin, no pressure.
[105. Adventurer Passing By]
Ahaha, he tried to sneak up on her but got a total wipeout! What a mug lol
[106. Adventurer Passing By]
And he is dead. Got dealt with like a chump.
[107. WhiteStripe]
In all seriousness, what the heck is up with Astaria’s skill level? Isn’t she just too good?
[108. God]
Yeah, she ain't bad, I will give her that. But I think a lot of it is the level advantage, a much higher AGI stat is showing its advantage here. Her perception can't be that inhuman.
[109. Satan]
Agreed. On a level playing field, we could take her. We will have to challenge her when we next see her.
[110. Belladonna]
Lol, ego much. Just because nobody has been able to consistently beat you guys in the arena doesn’t mean you can take her on. I have watched you both fight, and you two are clearly no match.
If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
[111. WhiteStripe]
Yeah, a bit arrogant that. Besides, you guys would need to level up enough to be able to actually take her on. Lv 8 won't cut it.
[112. BigZ]
Wait, these guys that are chattin’ shit like they are the best thing since an inbuilt bidet are only Lv 8?
[113. Belladonna]
Yes, lol.
[114. God]
Oi, you want to chat shit yourself, come face me first. Hiding in chat is just weak.
[115. Adventurer Passing By]
Dude, ignore the pissing contest, do you see her face? Fuck. Remove the blood and she is a 12/10.
[116. Adventurer Passing By]
Yeah, also if you ignore that slightly manic smile.
[117. Jon Weshfar]
You know what they say about the hot ones, fucking nutjobs.
[118. Adventurer Passing By]
Ahaha
[119. Gashly]
Not wrong, she did just solo 50 people while covered in blood.
[120. Adventurer Passing By]
Oh, and here comes Iron Fist, beatdown incoming!
[121. Belladonna]
That was beautiful.
[122. Adventurer Passing By]
I’m speechless
[123. Adventurer Passing By]
That was like a sword and staff dance. So fucking graceful.
[124. YoruKage]
A mix of spinning, flashing steel, and wide telegraphed attacks. Compared to her swift and unpredictable strikes from before, she is just playing with him.
[125. Adventurer Passing By]
Ha, she completely disarmed him.
[126. Adventurer Passing By]
God, what a bad pun.
[127. WhiteStripe]
I swear that will end up being overused by the end of the year.
[128. Adventurer Passing By]
Damn, look at him, kneeling before Astaria like a defeated general, covered in his own blood. Sorta pathetic.
[129. Unknown One]
Hell, she is doing the whole ‘lift the chin with a sword’ thing, this is fucking epic! Next thing she will be shouting is that ‘THIS IS SPARTA!’
[130. BigZ]
Ahah, I know right, this is some movie level shit right here. Can you hear what she’s chattin’ to him?
[131. Adventurer Passing By]
Nope.
[132. Adventurer Passing By]
Wait, so has Astaria won? What about the rest of their guild?
[133. Adventurer Passing By]
I would say so. Those in the main group are just standing around, and the others on crowd control are just slack-jawed.
[134. Adventurer Passing By]
I may not have heard what Astaria had said to him, but bloody hell, has that Iron Fist chap got a dirty mouth. Someone go get Astaria some soap to help wash it out!
[135. Adventurer Passing By]
Lol, i’m a dwarf, what makes you think I use soap?
[136. Adventurer Passing By]
Damn, remind me never to party with you.
[137. Abbyulous]
And now she is choking him in the air, what’s her strength at to be able to manage that?
[138. Unknown One]
Get ready for the Sparta kick, I'm calling it!
[139. Gashly]
Dude, Astaria looks pissed. Remind me never to provoke her.
[140. Adventurer Passing By]
If you need help remember not to provoke her after seeing this, then I pity you.
[141. Jon Weshfar]
Wait, did I catch that right, she would farm this dullard back to lv 0?
[142. Adventurer Passing By]
Who the hell uses ‘dullard’ these days?
[143. Adventurer Passing By]
Yeah, I thought I heard that as well. That would take ages mind you, there is a half hour respawn timer.
[144. Adventurer Passing By]
Damn, either she is committed or has an army of simps at her bidding. She has the looks to pull it off at least.
[145. Adventurer Passing By]
Oh, looks like she is about to make a speech.
[146. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
SPEECH! SPEECH! SPEECH!
[147. WhiteStripe]
Well, that was informative. Guess the NPCs are more realistic than we first thought.
[148. Adventurer Passing By]
Serves them right I guess. If nobody wants to deal with that lot, then I say good riddance.
[149. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
Lol, this bitch is some goodie two shoes, she gonna get herself in some deep shit later on, I swear down.
[150. Belladonna]
You say that, but it's just common morality. Treat others like you want to be treated. A good reminder for many who forget that when playing online games.
[151. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
People of Caelus lol, next she will be advocating for equal rights for the NPCs.
[152. Adventurer Passing By]
Have you actually spoken to one? They are honestly just like real people, full backstories and everything. It's kinda mad.
[153. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
Why the fuck would I talk to some shitty bots. I’m not a fucking bitch ass nerd.
[154. Adventurer Passing By]
Where is she looking?
[155. Adventurer Passing By]
Wait, is that the rest of her party?
[156. Jon Weshfar]
What the fuck, there is another level 24 player??
[157. Adventurer Passing By]
Look at the rest of them, they are all above lv 18!
[158. Adventurer Passing By]
How the fuck did they manage that? I spent over 6 hours grinding goblins and only reached Lv 8!
[159. Abbyulous]
Hang on a second, did they take out the raid boss with just 6 people?
[160. WhiteStripe]
You would need to ask them, but it’s likely others in their party logged off or went elsewhere.
[161. Belladonna]
True, but can we just note that Astaria had the choice to bring her party to fight the Iron Fist guy and his goons, yet decided to do it solo.
[162. Adventurer Passing By]
Now you point it out, that’s true lol
[163. Adventurer Passing By]
Ahaha, look at the surviving Iron Fist player's faces, they are low key shitting themselves!
[164. WhiteStripe]
Ahah, it's like almost getting wiped by a raid boss, only for the sub-boss level adds to turn up
[165. Gashly]
Well, once again remind me not to piss them all off. On that point, does anyone know who Astaria and co. actually are? I'm sure if there was a pro player with those sorts of looks, even with the blood, they would be incredibly well known.
[166. LoreMasterVarok]
No idea, and I keep up to date with the top players in this genre. Never seen her, and to my knowledge, nobody has ever mentioned her in any streams or videos. She is a complete enigma.
[167. Adventurer Passing By]
A dark horse followed by the 5 highest leveled players in the game. She will be one to watch, I'm calling it now.
[168. Adventurer Passing By]
Yeah, no kidding, especially after that performance. Fuck, I wish we could record things already, what were the devs thinking restricting the function till the official launch? Surely they would want the publicity?
[169. Adventurer Passing By]
You would think, but apparently not. I guess they think its just too good on its own to need any further advertisement.
[170. LoreMasterVarok]
Yeah, true, this has enough depth to be an entirely another world, and that's has its own merits. Even if it's not such a hit at launch, just through player progression alone it will grow in popularity. This is one of those ‘has everything we want in a full dive MMO’ types, the completely autonomous NPC’s absolute player freedom etc.
[171. WhiteStripe]
You make a good point. Still, it will be interesting to see the political landscape of the guilds after this. Irons lot will get some backlash, Astaria if she decides to make a guild will have a massive boost to popularity while also angering a number of guild leaders, and that's not even getting into the comments Astaria made. If the NPCs are impacted by public opinion as well, that will heavily impact how guilds deal with things. Especially leaning more towards cloak-and-dagger tactics.
[172. Hayden Anderson]
Yeah, you make some good points. I have met a few guild leader types in the past trying to organise raids, and yeah… my opinion is not great. At least for those in charge of the larger ones, they all have some stick up their arse, some self-importance complex, with arrogance and ego in spades.
[173. Adventurer Passing By]
Ahah, not holding back your opinions there, are you?
[174. Hayden Anderson]
Dude, you have no idea. They are too high on their own success. I hope Astaria makes her own guild just on the principle that all the uppity lot get annoyed and dealt with like we saw today. That would be at least one more tolerable guild I could work with.
[175. Usidore]
Lol, you realise those of us in the big guilds don’t give a crap what you nobodies think right? Besides, this Iron Fist guild is just as irrelevant as you lot. If Astaria were facing a proper guild she would never have managed to kill a mere 10, let alone over 40.
[176. Adventurer Passing By]
Oh, this sounds like a challenge? Well, when you guys get to a point when you can provoke the best players in the game, we will all be watching to see you flop.
[177. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
^SIMP.
[178. Adventurer Passing By]
I see what you mean about the stick and arrogance. Bunch of twats seems like.
[179. Andrvestori]
Well, be assured that soon they will fall in line or will not be permitted to exist.
[180. IxXShAd0wAsSaSs1nXxI]
Another edge lord. Fuck off cunt.
