Subject: Re: A lot of misinformation


I have observed that when attempting to run from Hill Giants and NOT using a
drum to aid in the song I fail (usually resulting in injury to the Hill
Giant when he slips on my remains). However, when using the drum in
conjunction with the song (at level 11) I generally leave him behind,
although none to fast.

(Is that properly phrased?)

I could spend hours trying to correct a lot of misinformation being posted
by some people. I would ask that if you aren't 100% sure about the
information you give, don't post it as a statement, rather ask it as a
question.

It reveals to me there's a lot of poor deductive logic going on with some
players - drawing conclusions from game experiences that are more based on
coincidence than on good research.

I don't care to try and correct some of these things - I just ask that,
going forward, people be more cautious about the things they declare as
truth.

There's a big difference between:

---- "Hill Giants can outrun Selo's"
and
---- "A Hill Giant seemed to outrun my Selo's, has anyone else seen this?"
The complicated thing is that one MAY have tested this fully, and thus could
say:
---- "I tried running 10 times from a Hill Giant and here are the
results...."
