Now, I've been away from EQ way too long to debate about character skill, or how good different guilds are - or even if scouts should be allowed to DKP Leather Pieces (they totally should be able to Slapp
)
But I can say, having raided with Paragon, Death's Door and Heroes Fate (although HF only during a brief app period with my Zerker Flogger) - that Paragon BY FAR has the sickest vent conversations.
Which leads me to my story:
Matto once told a wrestling story (he's a wrestling couch in Texas, pls stalk him) about teaching kids the tactical edge to "accidently" putting your finger in someone's ass when trying to roll them over or something on a mat. He had a name for this particular move, something to do with chilli or wanting to drink a glass of cold shit (warm is better matto) or something, but anyways, I always thought that story was a little on the crazy side until recently...
As none of you fully know, but some of you had an idea (I think I /telled freeble and borr about fighting a little) I'm a hand to hand combat instructor for the Army (in addition to my primary job which several of you know). Since instructors need training too, my most recent period of training ended in a week of "stick fighting" (you can see videos of stick fighting if you look up the dog brothers on the internet, although they mostly suck). In stick fighting, you hold a smaller sized sticked in a pretty obvious way, with most of the length above your hand so you can swing it with the force of your shoulder, but there's a 2-3 inch part of the stick below your hand that's going to be the main point of this story.
Once you take a stick fight to the floor, it's nearly impossible to land clean hits length wise using your shoulder because of the lack of space between you and your opponent.
On the ground with a stick, you use that 2-3 inch part of the stick to "jab" your opponent as much as possible, and trust me, it leaves A LOT of bruising (I'm still recovering).
The point of all this is, when you're fighting with sticks on the ground, and you're the person on the bottom, a prefered method of getting your opponent to give up the top (or move too much so you can sweep him) is to repeatedly jab this 2-3" part of a wooden stick in the area of their asshole to hopeful land a few shots that "check the oil".
So now I fully understand one of Matto's sick stories, I hope you enjoyed it.
