  • For newbies, you can tell them to use this for now:

  • (Quote) @TalanI'm a few days late to this, and I'm not sure if you'll see this. But you were the first, and probably the biggest, reason why I continued to pl…
  • Town criers or variations thereof generally just need a toggle-able function. It's really for ambiance, so just make it optional from the get-go.
  • I think the customisation is probably the most important part of a serverside system, because it makes the serverside system comparable to a client side without being clearly better or worse.

    100ms delay to emulate latency sounds reasonab…
  • By the way, I'm not opposed to removing affinity, or making it another incarnation. At the end of the day, something that causes disproportionate distress is probably something that can be improved to be more obviously meaningful. The "this is a gam…
  • The main problem with affinity is actually emotional rather than mechanical.

    To tell the truth, Divine essence is probably of little to no concern to the gods in question.

    If they really need to, they can just top it off with a…
  • Eh, I think the admin are being vague in their rules for a reason: they don't want to have to go to the trouble of clarifying things. Keeping things vague is a good way to fly under the radar, and therefore create a lot of leeway for both their user…
  • Don't worry about making the wrong decisions. As a novice, you'll be able to switch with negligible downsides if you find that your choice does not suit you. Take some time, get to know the people and see.
  • So, from that picture, I assume Shedrin's answer is that Ianir is... tiny?

    (Geddit!?!?)
  • Bells as they stand ARE used, by the way, as call outs for when someone trips a pit in area defense. Good for killing scouts who are otherwise slippery. Announce when someone trips a trap as a signal for everyone to scent and converge, and you can s…
  • As a note, I do want to note my objection to the sentiment that it is somehow bad that people are discussing things passionately in tweets (or anywhere else on the forums). That "flooding" tweets (or the forums) is somehow a wrong thing. It's a gene…
  • Well, Celina -is- a slut...

    (Sorry, that was out of line.)

    Joking aside:

    To be fair, regardless of how good (or bad) Karlach's comparisons are, the underlying sentiment he has is actually one I can identify with…
  • Replaced by "mineral oil", but not as something you rub onto weapons. It's a crafting item, to give permanent enhancements (customisation effects) to weapons:

  • So, Fate/Grand Order just added the male Fate/Prototype Arthur Pendragon character to their roster.

    I had already spent most of my spin credits in the Valentine's event a couple of weeks back, so I had barely enough to roll new cha…
  • To be fair, compared to when the promotion first came out, the current iteration is fairly benign already. Comparatively, that is. Making an even turnover (with a very slight profit) is fine, I think. Basically, you want the promotion to not shortch…
  • Computer died and won't power on. :/
  • Why is Sidd in the artifact name and it affects Shuyin?
  • Lusternia has very little support for rogues, yes. It's mechanically coded this way. It's definitely an OOC "feature" (or limitation, from the perspective of this thread's opening post).

    It's in "conflict" with the RP of the orgs all bein…
  • Holy. First real day at home, and I log in to see this. This is great!
  • Ah, you're right, now that I'm back and have had the chance to check. Group combat wasn't even considered in the original design concept, to the point where it was pretty much completely overlooked. I was remembering wrongly about how much the origi…
  • I'm a little late to the party, sorry, but I'm overseas, so I have an excuse, I guess. I also felt I needed to weigh in on this because of all the discussion about group combat and succumb.

    Just to put it out there, I feel that the origin…
  • (Quote) It's effectively the same as an instakill on all mobs. The only mobs that can survive WSCs are "aspect" mobs, which should be excluded from this... which makes it pretty much the same thing as the previous suggestion, really.

  • Scent is important, really, and significantly so for combat. Maybe more important for newbies getting into combat than established combatants, because of the role it plays in teaching newbies how to combat.

  • Yes, my Nekai are Tragedy and Sorrow. I should show them off more often.
  • Okay, I've finally taken the time to catch up on this thread.

    I'm not the best melder in the room, but there's one thing I want to add to make clear. I supported the couple of meld nerf reports because I felt they were justified for the e…
  • (Quote) Except, you know, the stun requires a Surge form, and is one stun. Not stunssssss. We have one. Freaking. Stun. Ninjakari have four god forsaken stuns. Shofangi have three. And Nekotai, alongside Tahtetso, have one.
  • Ah, should've known Crek would be on the ball already. Go Crekkie.

    My report obviously had some problems. It wasn't that well thought out, but just something I cooked up randomly. I intended it as a general idea, my grasp of druid specifi…
  • Regarding removing sap, there's this old report I wrote up when Dylara was telling me she needed to replace an old BT effect made redundant by the overhaul. I didn't read most of the thread, but the gist of the idea is basically, delete sap, start r…
  • (Quote) Vessels have been a core part of Nekotai from as early as I can remember, so I don't think I'm "co-opting" into anything. It's been a Nekotai niche for the longest time, and that is why I certainly do intend on keeping it. Making it p…
