  • Point. But. Just means that Aslaran are not good for every class, like people are trying to go for. Aslaran psionics mage sucked royal time.

    No one is saying Aslaran is good for every class....

    It's good for warriors, monks, and tarot guardians (sometimes).

    The balance difference on Aslaran isn't great enough to set it apart from other races. Having played an Aslaran mage myself, and dying a lot, well, it's a good race but it isn't super special. Just my opinion, having played the race. And granted, I wasn't a warrior.
    Faster balance isn't going to benefit you there, if you were Mugwump and went with the EQ balance bonus you'd see more of a difference.

    You don't like sharing your faelings?

    Peace isn't bad at all, but you probably don't have the herb-stack that say, a monk has to really use that to maximum annoyingness.
  • Yeah.. Beast peace can be pretty insane in the right hands.
    Take great care of yourselves and each other.

    Fine.


    Natural miss is a terrible horrible mechanic that needs to die. Trans Combat, trans weapon spec and sharpnening oil and I still miss while bashing, and in PK I've already got parry/stance/rebounding to have to deal with. It's a pointless overkill and an unfun, uncontrollable mechanic in a class already flooded with RNG in PK.

    Can we remove it now please?

    So long as the conversation doesn't dwarf the thread, you're welcome to discuss natural miss rate.

    I don't even care if you go back to that faeling discussion, elfen you don't mind making a new thread with your thoughts/comments and then you all can taurian them up. I never enjoy opening Tweets and seeing a flood of tears - I'm not a merianer, man. I don't need the seas! Okay, the urge to fill this with puns is probably dwarfing my point, and I'm getting a bit ill worming my way through these. Best advice I can give you, though, is don't let them leave you lookin' dumb with your mug wumped!

    (Sorry, human nature and all. Aslaran I'm on the topic, I kepheran about all these problems and they make me wanna krokani, so maybe some positive tweets? :( Let's not let them get too long, or-clach your hands with post bans I will! God this is awful, I should stop before the trill screams start up about Eventrolls this and that. Are the puns too much? Igasho!)
  • I thought Raves was for positive tweet like things, and Tweets was... you know. Lack of Rants Lite (Lite, Lite, Lite, Lite.)
  • edited May 2013
    Bring back lack of rants!

    Edit: But you can only see it if you have over 100 posts. (So we don't scare the noobs away)
    Take great care of yourselves and each other.

    However much time you spent writing that was too much.

    But really natural miss rates are bugging the hell out of me, that was a legitimate tweet.

  • Unfortunately, it took way less time than it should have. I had a whole 3 minutes and 74 seconds left on my washer, why not use it productively...?

    Last time the miss rate was brought up on envoys, I think I remember Roark saying it would require a rewrite of the core warrior code.

    I could be thinking of something else though. Basically it's been brought up 1000 times and it's still a no.

    Also not a big deal. Power moves no longer miss.

    Natural miss rate bad.

    Eventru's washer clock (or his ability to read it) also bad.
    Or his ability to type. 47 seconds, sob.
  • RiviusRivius Your resident wolf puppy
    My first report ever was an attempt to remove the miss rate. They said they understood it would be an unpopular decision but that they would ultimately reject it as a design decision. 

    For the very least, power moves don't miss now, as Celina said, which is something to be thankful for. 

    The reason why it still feels like a big deal is, when you're fighting certain classes, like certain guardians or just about any monk, building can be so frustrating that that little extra miss can make you want to punch a hole through your screen.

    But anyway, it's way better now than it used to be, especially after sharpness oil got buffed.
  • I'm confused.. If miss rate can be diminished (I.E. sharpness oil) without re-writing the warrior code.. couldn't it just be diminished to 0% miss rate?
    Take great care of yourselves and each other.

    It can. It was just a design decision.

    Also, I think the miss-rate on bashing is alright, but then again I'm not a super hardcore basher.
  • KarlachKarlach God of Kittens.
    Natural miss has zero place in PvE. Even in PvP it doesn't have any reason to exist.

    It's an uncontrollable entity outside of the players hands that is purely down to RNG. In PvE this is annoying, in PvP it's poor design. Other games that have miss ratios allow you to cap them, or take steps to ensure that if you do not want to miss, you will not miss.

    If you make parry and stance better I would support a no miss report. As it stands it's a reasonable balancing factor to wound management.
