Why The Lunginator is one of the best weapons in the game

    Crap. I've missed it again... :(
    With the new wonderful blocks The Lunginator should become even more powerful... but the new weapons are powerful too!

    There's one in particular that made me think of you and this thread.

    Nice weapon, its cards have good synergy, and it doesn't even need Crusher - Bruiser is enough. But the Scourge will never outmatch The Lunginator, since it offers worse tech (no block removing) and roughly the same damage for (majortoken)(majortoken).

    Another expansion an still no weapons with Shambling Bash. **sigh**

    Oh yeah, the lungination menace is back! ;)

    I'm currently trying out this build:

    Lysergic A. Diethelamide
    Level 19 Dwarf Warrior

    Psilocybe Cyanesence
    Level 19 Human Priest

    Synthetic Mescaline
    Level 1 Human Wizard

    I mainly want to test out Zoltan's Laser Scourge, which made me use Advanced Crushing instead of the other legendary with 3x crusher. Some minor changes to the other ones. I've gotten hold of pretty much all the cards I want for this deck now, so I'll see how far it goes.

    Love it! I've been running the Zoltan's/Lunginator combo since I got my Zoltan's, it's a ton of fun. Pretty sure I'm running Blazing Short Sword as my third weapon. Consider some double Flanking Move boots on that warrior, and maybe an All-Out Attack if you can fit it in. I've managed to one-shot a couple of Dwarf Wizards, not sure I've had a better feeling in this game!

    Awesome! :cool: One-shotting any wizard is fun, but one-shotting a dwarf is something special!

    Allright Melanchton... I updated according to your suggestions (except the blazing sword - show me your build so I can see how it synergizes with the rest of your deck?). So far I've reached a top rating of 1744 with this sucker, my personal best. 10th in the rankings, it said...

    Level 19 Dwarf Warrior

    Psilocybe Cyanesence
    Level 19 Human Priest

    Synthetic Mescaline

    And THERE, I *JUST* one-shot-AoA-whipped my first dwarven wizard. It was GLORIOUS - his Aegis Def block failed! He went "fu" after that, and I consequently felt like a million bucks. Yum. So worth it.

    Nice work, gennelmen. Might squeeze an Akon's onto the mage and replace the Dark Drewg's with a Purging Mace with a scrounged minor on the Priest. Thoughts?

    I was running the BSS because I had my tokens in other places, and I wanted some more two-range attacks. I'm trying it your way (swapping a tokenless shield and the 2x Rushing Aura/AoA helm) now in a three-warrior team and I quite like it!

    Ok... I just had another Zoltan drop in my lap unexpectedly so I have changed my dwarf a bit. Also replaced the Dark Drewg's with a Purging Mace for the priest like Happenstance said. The priest change seems to not work as well as I hoped. In some places I'm really happy (beating of pesky 2 elf war + priest builds) and other places I just have dead cards in there where I needed the firepower. Will try some more with it in.

    There's probably still room for improvement here, soooo.... Let me know if you have suggestions...

    I just realized that I no longer run any Lunginators, and therefore my deck isn't qualified for this thread anymore! I'm going to have to suggest a thread renaming to "why lunging bash is one of the best cards in the game"... :)

    A little tip:if a character with ready to strike bashes someone against an adjacent wall it will trigger ready to strike.

    Well, as nice an item the lunginator is, i've yet to see it at high-level even once.

    Ector, it's one thing to talk about how good an item is, its another thing to prove it...

    Are you aware he started this thread nearly 2 years ago? In particular, it predates the existence of Zoltan's Laser Scourge.

    Despite all the balancing, nerfs and expansion packs... Lunginator remains the best weapon in the game!

    Yes, but i'll never tire of fighting misinformation that is deliberately posted.
