  • (Quote) Motes can now be made from powerstones. And made in bulk. For the willpower cost of a single mote.

    Every dreamweaver should bow down before me in thanks for that report.
  • That's correct. If there's an error, it lies in the values assigned to the different buffs. However there are buffs that are not listed in your chart: psionics gives +3/8, for example.
  • I agree that a lot of the demi+ powers aren't worth a 1kcr artifact, to the point that the ones which are are outliers and were, I think, generally identified as problematic abilities for PK prior to implementation. The exception might be som…
  • Except that's not the way buffs work. The second number is the highest that buff can lift your total to. It doesn't lift some theoretical character-associated cap. Therefore, none of the X/4 buffs can lift your total above 4, so they're all a…
  • (Quote) Do you still have Pooka Face set as your song?
  • Oh, hm. Does this mean other eq/bal buffs - like shrine celerity - are going to be converted?
  • (Quote) He's not talking about extra reserves or reserve regeneration, he's talking about the demi+ perk that makes you shift 1 power from reserves to prompt every 6s instead of 8s, thereby changing the dynamic of power-sensitive things…
  • Regardless of the context, ejecting someone because they're expressed an intent to contest you is a very poor move and brushing very close to breaching the rules outlined in HELP ELECTIONS, if not outright breaking those under the last section.
  • (Quote) Have you considered clearing the list when sending the rub commands?
  • Because I am a loving person, and people like to pastebin their curio lists:
    ^\s*\d+\s+(Rare |Piece)    ([\w ]){20} ([\w ]){12} ([\w ])+$

    Hopefully it doesn't cut out the spaces in the middle there.
  • Have you considered fixed-width parsing then trimming spaces?
  • I believe ninjakari also relies on the way wounds massively boost monk damage to get amazingly painful kicks, but it's been a while.
  • (Quote) No, no, too obvious. Ask for something like Recessional.

  • When the change was first made, it definitely blocked meld watch (and I think shrine watch, specs, magicmouth, programmed illusions, etc. etc. - basically everything that fires on room enter except traps which only had a 50% chance. I think it even …

  • (Quote) It's her rare artifact the Sun-Chases-Night Bra. She just never changes the settings.
  • My poor, poor Raise Staff. Went from +20 weighted damage to +2/8.
  • It's worth noting that while it increases by 3% or 6% or 9%, it works at the same step as all other buffs, so you may see a slightly lower number in practice. The total number of other buff effects is capped at 30%, with the artifact therefore givin…
  • Their quest isn't sealing the Gorgogs. It's Spectre, Malacoda, Marilynth.

    The only thing I can think of that matches this is killing the Disney Princess. Which swings both ways: you need to drop Ladantine before we can re-raise him.

    Except it's really easy to delay…
  • I don't believe it's ever given DMP. It and Resilience acted outside the DMP system.

    Get someone with a cord to skillflex it off and on to test damages.
  • (Quote) Go suck a lemon!
  • (Quote)
    Both candles and bonfires burn.
  • (Quote) Mag Liches get 4/10 in taint from our construct.

    (also the Spire is a -5 penalty to health and -3 to the others, applies after the cap, and apparently applies offprime even after being bug-reviewed, so it's …
  • It's good you're looking into this. 12 is lower than I was expecting (which was around 16) - are you using the same for h/m/e? Are you going to rebalance essence costs/losses to account for slower gains?
  • (Quote) The most amusing part is how Irontongue Viscanti is strictly worse than Master Viscanti.


  • Why would anyone buy that - unless it raises tolerance even when you've already raised tolerance that month?
  • (Quote)
    Rule #1: A meld cannot be made or broken such that it would exist in two distinct parts.

    There are several important follow-ons from this, things like "a meld that's a perfect ring can be br…
  • Pretty sure the quest cloier predates aetherspace!

    The aetherspace ones are such chumps.

    Anyway, pretty sure it's an smob - the damage it deals drops the more people are in the room, although it always…
  • Is shrine vendetta (and maybe vindicatedvendetta) supposed to show up? I can't remember the restrictions on its applicability either.
  • (Quote) Or, for that matter, whether or not we're Conquest.
