  • This is going to sound more aggressive than I intend.  I'm tired at the moment, but I want to put this out there before the thread reaches some sort of conclusion or we get too far invested in this specific solution.

    I'm having a very har…
  • What's facebook, precious?
  • Sometimes, I feel like I should be trading in popcorn futures.
  • (Quote) Nature can be harsh.
  • Artifact that allows you to use transportation abilities and artifacts when you're indoors.  So badly.

    Or better, add that functionality to the Ring of Aetheric Power or Ring of Aetheric Quickening.
  • Now we need a way to replace the adjective before the race.  Preferably not for 50cr.

  • When wildnodes are active, everyone has access to ASTROGLIDE, which will take you up to the wildnodes.
  • (Quote) If something like this were added, it would have to be toggle-able by the owner.
  • I feel this new resource is a bandaid solution.  We've already got too many different measures of value: comms, gold coins, credits/dingbats/aethergoop/crystals, tonics, cookies, the list goes on.  So if whatever this new resource is called, when it…
  • If I put a Great Rune of the Winter Bane AND a Great Rune of the Summer Bane on a piece of clothing, will the two cancel out or will the clothing now grant better protection against both forms of weather?
  • (Quote) You can't take the sky from me.
  • I remember that help file, though I can't recall where it was. I'm pretty sure I didn't read it in a Glomdoring-specific clan. I would have said it was a general HELP file.

    Hmm.
  • I would love to see item generation artifacts disappear (or more likely, be altered). I've ranted about them before. Though it starts to get blurry. Magic ink is expensive, and a quill artifact effectively 'creates' free magic ink. The same coul…
  • I disagree with 'save the newbies'. That's selling them short, and denying them the opportunity to enjoy the growth of their characters. They aren't any worse at playing the game than the first wave players, and already have advantages from there …
  • Soandso, your protege has entered Lusternia.

    (Oh wow, I haven't seen that person in AGES.)

    Soandso, your protege has left Lusternia.

    honours Soandso

    There is no such person, I'm afraid.

    (doh)

  • I also issued to get admin attention to the problem as soon as I realized I was gaining more than I spent. Then appended to the issue twice to get attention to the matter, because I happen to like this game and would rather not see it explode.
  • Pretty much as soon as the announce sunk in, I customized up a number of typecasts to cover various versions of my character's major themes. I'm reminded of the domain name grab of yesteryear.
  • This means aethersuits are iffy for monks as far as armour goes.

    Monk acrobat, no tradeskills to consider: 14% armour (tattoo armour)
    Monk acrobat, no tradeskills to consider, in an aethersuit: 12%
    Monk acrobat, no tradeskills t…
  • Also, is there any prestige tied to the aethersuits? If they're meant to replace robes/plate (and may behave poorly when worn with either of the above), there's a fair amount of prestige lost by wearing an aethersuit versus robes/greatrobes/plate/m…
  • If we went the rune route, it would be important to ensure that both options were more or less identical in benefit. If the 'gear' runes don't provide the full upgrade path that aethersuits do, the solution is incomplete.

    in Aethersuits! Comment by Eldanien August 2016
  • Which makes sense, given I'm also wearing five kinds of footwear. But if they stack, that's potentially 11 slots. Slots might not be very potent, but a lot of not-very-potent begins to add up.

    When I can flex again, I'll have to go back…
  • But. I'm wearing both. At the same time.
  • So I'm wearing a robe with great runes. I'm also wearing an aethersuit. Do they stack in any way? Does one fully override the other? Do I get the best of both?
  • Also, these things are begging for customization. Please oh please alter some of the base types to give us more variety, or add more designs. Particularly, I'd recommend 'armour', 'garments' and 'outfit' for maximum versatility. But if those are …
  • So questions.

    Acrobats with aethersuit armor. How does this work? Acrobats normally can only wear leather, which provides 0% damage reduction versus the aethersuit's 12%.

    Do aethersuits turn off Kata Tattoos benefits? Kata T…
  • (Quote) So I recently made jjajangmyeon with deep-fried lardons, because I lacked pork belly and had to use a leaner cut of pork. Jjajangmyeon absolutely requires the fat content in the pork belly in order for the sauce to turn out right, so yeah…
  • Is that Girl Genius? It may be time to catch up. I can't stand waiting for the next edition, so I take long breaks and re-read the whole series each time.
  • Add 'contrivance' or such to all transplanar contrivances, please? Would help when it comes time to reorganize inventory again.
