  • Still would like that gnomish power tool!  Can put in spatulas, planar needles, paintbrushes, jewellery hammers, etc; all of the trade and miscellaneous arties that need to be wielded to give you their effect.  When in the power tool they count as b…
  • That specifically says "email".  EMail != In-game messages.  So no, not the same thing.  This config will leave you a message any time it would have done so if you were offline.
  • I certainly would want a refund in that case, far too expensive for a skill that lasts through death already as-is.  One of the few skills that is already essentially permanent, just does not persist through logout.
  • (Quote) For most things you are right, but if you are a powerstone-heavy tradeskill (like enchanting) you can go through multiple stones at once.  In that case you can use your shell to avoid having to buy stones and multiple powerplexes let …
  • (They still sell for way more than the cost of 2 powerstones, so even then you're better off selling the things!)
  • You can take aetherdust and trade it for auronidian particles, or use particles from Flares (or both).  You use the particles to trade for auronidion spheres (via gnome traders).  You can then trade the spheres for gold (or apparently use as a power…
  • Only 99 buy orders left up on the curiomarket... my wishlist is slowly getting whittled away.  Hooray!
  • (Quote) Look through, or see where it leads?  I think you can survey to see room name, but cannot actually see what is on the other side of it in terms of denizens and people.
  • The benefits of multiple powerstones (quantity depending on size and how many you stuff into it)!
  • (Quote) There are quests (of which basically anything that triggers karma when you complete it is one), and there are Quests (which are built into the Quests system).  Bards and scholars are not built into the Quests system, but guild tasks c…
  • (Quote) With a "bug if it starts charged, not a bug if it doesn't" statement, it sounds like Tridemon tried to put it into the powershell, the powershell didn't charge, but the powerplex is empty.  Which would make some sense if a powerplex c…
  • (Quote) Um.  Good question.  I imagine it starts charged, but I don't even remember for sure!
  • I got moved to the Thornwatch.
  • I was more thinking: leave the empty powerstone inside the powershell.  If you want it you can take it back out.  On month change, any powerstones inside a powershell are purged (without decay messages).  No need for extra syntaxes or anything like …
  • Powerplexes get pressed against it and transfer their energy, but stay in your inventory.  After this they are at 0% until the month change.  There is a line for pressing a powerplex with energy in it and a different line (indicating no transfer) wh…
  • (Quote) Yeah, the powerstones just get destroyed right now.  There is a request to have them leave you with a dead / empty powerstone (for purposes of tradeskills that need them as comms), which may or may not happen.

    Also, you can…
  • I was still on my parents' insurance when my appendix decided it wanted to push the eject button, which I am... very grateful for.  Though I cannot say more without getting into politics.
  •    o Guild Tasks now permit points value of 0
         (Xenthos assures us it will save you paperwork.)
         
       o GUILD TASKS LIST will now filter by rank and path for those who cannot
       manage tasks so you only see tasks you are e…
  • Probably not warrior right now with your stated preferences (but things on that front will hopefully change!).  Warriors are the one class without a lot of burst potential, and other classes tend to do better at it.  What warriors do best is …
  • Demi+ Faeling perk gives a 2/10 universal damage buff and resist buff in any natural environment (not just forests) on top of the regens.  I mean, if you want to suggest buffs for it, go ahead, but I find it better than loboshigaru (I'…
  • Uh... who told you this, and when?  All races are very similar at the base level now, they just each get 4 racial "perks" as they level up.  You can pick your race based on which perks you like, but they really aren't required.  The entire point was…
  • I loathe durability mechanics.  And at that point you are switching upkeep from one that you can do alone (hunting or influencing) to something that you have to actually go out and find a tailor or forger or you're going without your gear?  How is t…
  • She sure does look unhappy, though.  That attitude.
  • I know that pretty much any summonable ent will "reset" if it is not following someone after a certain amount of time, including custom beasts (if I leave Ilistala in a different room for a bit I have to beast summon her again because she went back …
  • (Quote) FWIW I thought the same thing when it was announced.  I didn't really think they'd just drop everything up on the goop market (with player intervention, of course), but it's been made clear since then it really is an open offer to enc…
  • I've had an open offer for a while-- come up with a skin for an artifact I own, give me the goop and I'll submit it for you (if accepted, you can then use your larger stockpile of goop to form it).

    Nobody's taken me up on it yet (there ar…
  • That was very quick implementation!  Good job to you, coder-folk. :)
  • Ilistala does like to chew on things.  Tasty puppies sometimes do find themselves on the menu.
  • I admit that I never ever ever want to kill another vermin.
