Re: Magic vs Technology
I like to see him take aim at a Elf Shifter as he shoots the shifter deflects it back at him, then four gargoyles pounce on him out of the sky and throw him around, next a Raksasha changes into a mirror copy of him, kisses him and waves goodbye, a Maggot's eye beam turns him to stone then a Desolator step on him. the Shifter then says "I never leave home without minions."
I will be 125 living in Rio de Janeiro when the Great Cataclysm comes, I will not survive long but I will be cloned threw the Achilles project and my clones will be Achilles Neo-Humans that will start a new Jedi order in Psyscape. So You May Strike Me Down & I Will Become More Powerful Than You Can Possibly Imagine. Let the Clone Wars begin!

I was hoping for the same sort of thing.

Besides, namby-pamby Elves are easy sure, But what about a HUMAN necromancer, Shifter, Mystic Knight, Line Walker, Conjurer, Summoner, or just about ANY class of warlock? Your little OMGHe'sSoSUPERKEWL Tech Ninja Sniper woulda gotten his @r$$ handed to him (and IF your playing a mage with L33t Flesh Scultper SKiLLZ, your @r$$ woulda be putty'ed into a Balloon Animal Giraffe to boot).
MAGES (Especially Tolkeenite Mages) CAN USE TECHNOLOGY! On the OtherHand, Your geeky little Over teched out duffous Ninja FruitCup of a Sniper CAN NOT USE MAGIC!
EPIC FAIL-
FYI-Based on that video Yer SUPEROMGHE'SSO'FTW' Tech Ninja sniper woulda been outclassed by a simple US military sniper without all that tech Cr@p, as He'da just shot the elf w/o that lame "Here I Am" green laser targeter, and wouldn't have wasted 20seconds of perfectly good CAPPING time by acting all Stupid!

Problem is I used Placebos "Running Up that Hill" to get Catherine Wheels "Black Metallic" to get Monorals "KIRI" to get Dan Balans "Crazy Loop" out of my head in the first place.

Actually, given that it was said that the elves never used technology, and that the elf in-question had no idea what that dot on his head was - it's safe to assume that they are also very unfamiliar with technology.
Also, it's a satirical video meant to detract from games like WoW in order to boost hype.

Re: Magic vs Technology
Your only way to win now is to show a video of game play from arcainum With a mage taking on a tech user

Re: Magic vs Technology
Only in video games do all chars dress in a class based way.
So how is your sniper going to pick out mage out of the crowd w/o any external clothing or visible effects to to signifie who the mage is?
If you have 100's of people in armor and with someone with them casting magic at your possitions, how do you pick out the magi when the spell effects can't be traced back to the mage?
If you have only tech, you will miss the magic users if they decide to hide, or if they just dress up like other people.
There is also the invisible mage to concider,....
