One cannot always agree with the situations in exps, but it cannot be said that many of them are completely without merit. From a realism standpoint (since the goal of an exp is to live out your character's life), you may be an experienced mercenary, but you cannot simultaneously be stronger than an elite guardsman—one of the best warriors in the entire kingdom, equipped with the most expensive armor and weapons available, and trained to fight from infancy. Or you cannot insure yourself against assassins who set a trap for you one way or another. You might be a cool mercenary with 15 years of experience, but that other guy has 30 years, and it's only logical that he can outsmart you. Or, being just some random dude, you're unlikely to be able to insult the local empress to her face and survive. That is exactly why she is the empress—to simply have you hanged for your audacity.

Doriana...

He just hadn't seen it. He would have just credited it to Heroist, who already has most of the imbs, and here is another one.

Well, money is OP in any universe, there's no arguing that.

But you can always find conspirators... Or "external enemies"...

Relhiras was not only stronger than an elite guardsman, but even defeated the chief of a warrior clan—where leadership is determined by physical strength and combat skills—in a duel. Of course, his main asset became a horde of such guardsmen, but that is already a question of quantity, not quality.

I'll explain the essence of Ples's build to Dorian... or vice versa...

Dorian could kill anyone in a single hit with guaranteed accuracy, and on top of that, he had invisibility. And no, he's not an assassin)

We'll see how it goes now.

We'll see how the imba hero looks this time now.

fixed...

Believe me, such a character can be countered too. Dorian doesn't have any AoE spells, does he? In that case, it's enough to overwhelm him with meat. Or with an opponent who ignores the first attack. Anti-invisibility abilities also exist in the expansions. Somehow, on Heroist, an assassin with permanent invisibility died to a simple pirate. Something I still feel guilty about, since they were saving my character there.

Personally, what pissed me off the most in this story was that Revan deliberately saved his OD for him, so that after being exposed he could calmly get away...

Are you sure he didn't forget to deduct it? I've had several cases where Revan accidentally gave stats higher than intended or forgot to charge money for a particular purchase.

Nah, the NPC opponent in the semi-final just surrendered without a fight...

Dorian ignored defensive effects, but he truly couldn't ignore AoE. Oh right, and he also teleported and flew)

Nah, the NPC opponent just surrendered without a fight in the semi-finals...

And what exposed him? And what were the consequences for him?

Alright, I think you're overestimating Dorian a bit. That was a specific match. In some ways it worked for him, but in others, it was just the way that particular match went.
Try playing as Dorian now - you'll bite your nails off.
