View Full Version : Black Orc and Shaman; Best combination?

I was thinking about the BO abilities and I remember reading/hearing that BO's get to grab and throw Goblin Shamans behind them and out of harm's way. This ability sounds like it can only be used on goblins, (not saying a hulking black orc cant just as well throw a dark elf or chaos as he can a gobbo:D) It just doesn't seem like it would be used with anybody else but a goblin. Then i was thinking of the possibility of most of the Black Orc's ability's being compatible only with goblin's

Thoughts?

**EDIT** There, its fixed, that might make the ability more clear.

Throw them on top of their shoulders? I don't think so. Although that would be funny.

Never thought about that... Assuming they didn't take that ability out (because there a huge griefing possibilities with it) they should make it usable on all support careers on destruction. I think it won't make it to release, though.

One of my favorite metalocalypse quotes in your sig btw.

I hope this is not the case. I don't think one race's tank archetype should be limited to its own race while others are compatible with all groups.

Not on top of their shoulders, the Black Orc throws the goblin behind him, making the Black orc a giant metal/meat shield for the frail goblin.

Ahh, well that sounds similar tp the old Outta My way Skill.

Outta My Way! 130 AP : 10 ft : Knocks an ally away and causes them to detaunt all enemies around them, reducing the damage that the enemies deal to that ally by 50% for 10 seconds.

Not to say that this skill is currently in or will be in game at lanuch.

the bo turns around and flings the shaman behind him at the enemy and the shaman become a green ball of doom

Giving a new player a chance to go up against a Black Orc, Paul laughing recounted how many of them would try to "jump through" the Greenskin – just to bounce off and get pummeled by the orc. Run around the orc and start bashing on his shaman buddy and the Black Orc will reach over, pull the shaman out of the way, and get in your face.
So it might be there
