  • It occurs to me, what we really need is polls back.

    The admin intent was to simplify combat and systems to increase number of active players by lowering it as a barrier to entry, as well as increase combatants for the same metho…
  • Keep in mind it has been stated directly that they oppose GMCP bloating.

    We should remove it from more places not add a bunch.

    I'd like to see affs reported in GMCP under the overhaul (and cures) but that is the …

  • The short answer is the culture for 1v1 disappeared.  Look at the old days:  

    Magnagora dueled at the gates to settle arguments, people like Thoros, Shamarah, myself, Revan, Talkan, etc would take duel requests anytime.  You had…
  • Quick note:

    This would go much better if we had an intermediary like we did when we did the large set of reports. 

    Blanknote stuns, which we envoyed to remove before. Having to backtrack and make the s…
  • It does not seem like the concerns being given are being taken into account, and are generally ignored.

    I have stopped posting to the overhaul as it does not appear to do anything but make present combat worse. Simple is not goo…
  • I am not sure where your intent is going.

    Do you support having aeon or support removing aeon?

    Narsrim was one specific instance, and it did not happen reliably (proning could stop shield, so this, of …
  • So everyone on MM cures aeon differently? Or everyone cures the same but some guilds have specific options to also deal with it?

    Ignoring, of course, that you are still talking about reflexes, which is not personal ability to de…
  • In no order:

    - Illusions: You would not use active weaving in combat, you could still use claws, phantoms, wounds, etc from the skillset.  It is specifically intended to remove them from the equation and perhaps even make …
  • Because hallucinations is a level 4 aff, moon tarot does 1 level at a time. So you spent 8p if they DIDNT CURE, to get a stun.
  • I am disappointed in you Iytha, I expect better. Apparently there is 125% of an affliction from moon? 

    That aside, yes we can remove the power cost.
  • Quick replies:

    - Quests aren't really part of the overhaul, though if you only saw the topic name I suppose that would lead you to assume this is the place to post it!  I agree with Mork, they wont remove killing denizens, but I…
  • I like that Enyalida posted the concerns at large. 

    I dislike that she knew I was going to post an idea of something similar.

    We talked about this though, we have a slight variation in how to handle th…
  • I had some stuff to post but it assumes a lot, so I wanted to ask @Estarra directly:

    1) What is the goal of this overhaul? Was it purely to simpli…
  • After some thinking time I think the general idea of the overhaul is good while there are some things i'd still like to see/address:

    1)  I was one of the people hoping this overhaul would adjust things for groups. Under the curr…
  • My larger review will come later.

    Blanknote deals no auditory that way you can use the current tactic of waiting to use earwort till you need to move. If you could give auditory before then you would never be able to earwort. Do…
  • This doesnt feel like multi-classing to me. Usually multi-class means you have like X levels of one class, Y levels of another.  This system is just a way to take another guild without changing the current one.  You cant like take knighthood with ta…
  • Really we want to come into this assuming everything is flexible. 

    For instance herb on 5s balance is bad, but if focus is also available it isnt as bad depending on speed.  BUT since focus is a group not a select aff you can en…
  • Unless there is another change coming, aeon is perma. If you outpace curing then you will hit level 5 when aeon is level 4. You will never actually be able to cure it.
  • This depends on the skills to get the effect really.

    I have to test more but I was getting a curse every aff, and I forgot to check some things. I need more info though then I will have better feedback to the specifics. If we ar…
  • That is why I am saying maybe make it also reduce mana/ego damage when it fires. Or if something deals more than 1 aff at a time, give it a chance to drop an aff (if it does multiple different affs), or if it deals multiple of a single aff (like pri…
  • Agreed.

    Dodging can still be "they dodge" the attack and reduces the damage. If it is % chance to dodge then make it a decent amount (20% is fine I imagine) especially as it will only fire on damage.  Maybe make it special in th…
  • Little too early to look at affs that simply. We need to understand how/if focus works. And if beastmastery will still have curing/healing, will we have heal scrolls (forgot to check if rak was holding one), etc.
  • Can we replace dodging with universal damage mitigation during the swap overs?  

    While thematically neat, people dont like the chance RNG can screw up their plans or prevent them from anything.

    I perso…
  • Have you guys played with the curing yet?

    Purgatives are 3s cures, herbs are 5s.  So even doing 1 aff hit at a time will outpace things it looks. Aeon spamming alone would result in perma aeon (if you eat reishi at lvl 5, you do…
  • (Quote) The hekoskeri report of last month.  5 of every 12s is spent with sluggish. Attack once and its 6-8s off balance, then you can transfix!
  • (Quote) The hugely OP hekoskeri report of last month.
  • Constructs used to have costs to maintain. When weakenings were removed that was changed, now they all generate power.

  • Is there anything that can sheath a whip right now?
  • Nice shiny new look, love the discussion with the random divine!
  • The flags of Lusternia will wave at half mast.
