Episode 1 ~ The Korthos Kerfuffle: Strip 4

Mustardo on July 16, 2009

In this strip, Mustardo gets out of Shipwreck Shore and into The Grotto, where he encounters a divine caster and a slimy beast.

In traditional MMOs, you hit reliably about 95% of the time. This is not the case in DDO, especially when you're playing a character that doesn't have a high strength score. I grossly exaggerated the point (Mustardo is a fighter; he one-shotted this particular guy) but I think it makes for an excellent punchline.

Also important to note is that this is the first time the “Because Turbine said so.” phrase is used. Methinks you'll be seeing it pop up here and there, simply because there are so many things in an MMO environment that just can't be explained by normal means.

Enjoy.
