[center]Donny Yang - Arms Slave[/center]

Arms Slave readied himself as he pulled Corpse Collector closer to him. Only a few more yards and she'd be close enough to bash. She started shooting in the air, which Arms Slave initially thought was just because she was stupid, but did notice something going on above. He first noticed it was raining Dissolutions, so he had a pretty good incentive to finish this fight before he would end up having to fight off hordes of monsters. But he also vaguely saw what might have been a player. He couldn't get a clear look before his chain went back to his hand, but Corpse Collector was notably not attached. She had managed to snap the chain, which he wasn't too surprised with since it Corpse Collector was likely a high level assassin, and likely had abilities to do precise shots or something. Either way when she started shooting at him he simply turtled behind his shields. It worked... Until a bullet sunder his tower shield with a glancing blow.

[b]"Shit!"[/b] Arms Slave quickly realized that something was really amiss. Dissolutions with each shot, the sudden and insane increase to damage output, how quickly she was able to react and escape his Chain Catch. More importantly, the girl wasn't even trying to fight smart. She was fighting more like... Like the Dissolutions. While dismissed for their lack of tactics, a Dissolution was [i]random[/i]. Even simple plans, like baiting, can go wrong simply because a Dissolution choose not to attack you for whatever reason. That's why Arms Slave often just hits hard and hits fast at first, and leaves tactic against an opponent who bothers to think. Dissolutions just acted. And Corpse Collector was like that, which made him wonder; why was she so cocky?

Arms Slave had to keep moving. If one of her bullets could sunder his shield, taking a direct hit would kill him, even if he used his Surviving Suffering skill, he might be able to take on one shot. And it doesn't look like Corpse Collector was running out of bullets any time soon, but at least she was shooting at him. He knew that Hungry Jaws should be around, and who ever was above him would have some incentive to start fighting back. As Arms Slave did his best to not be in the general direction of where Corpse Collector was shooting at, he drew a rapier from his back. He was going to try to use some hit-and-run tactics and hope that he could slowly whittle down Corpse Collector in between her reloads. [b]"If she reloads..."[/b] For now Arms Slave just kept moving, waiting for the right chance to chain in and strike.
