| well, to be frank, it does suck. the special works once every 6
hours if you happen to be outside. it is not a particularly strong
special (troll regen special is way more useful), and it is so easy
to miss (you would have to know when dawn is and unless you are
willing to lose a minute or two to the wait you will probably miss
it, and frankly a minute or two of regen is probably enough). it's
either a special based on luck, which is lame considering how
completely rare the special is, or you're doing it intentionally
which isn't really very useful either. |

shrug, you can't be bothered to use it more carefully, don't be a
snakeman :-) I've found it invaluable |

of course, a lot of the specials suck compared to some of the other
specials, and i'm not really sure that usefulness was intended on
all the specials. in the case of them just being intended to be
something-for-nothing and aribtrarily useful, then this one is as
much of a success as ogier and vinnipier :) |

that would depend on your definition of 'wrong'. personally, I don't
think i've ever successfully 'used' snakeman special in any sort of
beneficial way ever. every time i've seen it happen, i've already
had max hps/sps/eps.. whenever i tried waiting for it, I regened to
max before the sun actual rose, thus wasting it anyways. Perhaps the
special could be changed to a slight regen boost for lying about in
the sun? |
