    Oh, seems I misunderstood the help file. Thought the second was 4, it's only the third that is 4.

    Yes, you may as well leave someone as a VA until you're ready for the next person. You can have 2 VA's at 2mil power each, so no point in descending one until you're ready for that 3rd person.

    But it's Mag's power, they can do what they want.

  • CyndarinCyndarin used Flamethrower! It was super effective.
    There's nothing fantastic about being a Vernal Demigod. You don't claim any faster, and you don't get the full access to powers.

    In Magnagora, the power does what we tell it to do.

    Iunno. Even just having a few you can swap around is nice. My powers list, while self inflicted, makes me sad. Because regular demi powers just suck so hard compared to level 101.

    Solution: make Level 101 powers to demis at twice the cost!

  • The problem I have isn't enough powers but not having weight to use the powers.
  • I'd love for some way to get one Ascendant power.

    Along similar lines, I'd still like an omniscence artifact. Lusternia is spread out too much for that ability to be so gated.

    They made Munsia an ascendant for aegis and/or destruction, and then demoted her. Dahlla was probably the same way.
    Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.
  • TarkentonTarkenton Traitor Bear
    It's been hashed over and over, but I'd think the extra weight, faster claims, and increased vitals would be sufficient. And it would make this less sad for me.

    Destruction is the one that makes me the most sad. Like, when I first heard about it I was like 'hurling balls of liquid power into mobs? gods, I want that'. Only after I reached demi, I realized that it will not be available to me and unless I'll somehow make it to VA someday, I won't be available to me, still makes me sad. Mostly because I think the flavor of that thing is awesome. For a bit, I had hoped, 'zap' was a weaker version of destruction, but zap is just entirely and utter useless 90% of the time. Peering onto demi power list, makes me very sad as well. In my book there's way too little flavor in there and way to little choice too. Sure, some of those things are nice (like changing messages, etc) but reaching demigod powerwise still makes me very 'meh' inside. So, for me, wtb destruction equivalent and more demi powers.

    (Market): You say, "Seeking the head of the stuffed piglet."

    <moments later...>

    A pink piglet drops from above and begins bouncing around.

    A pink piglet grunts a bit and then lets out a loud 'OINK' at you.

    A pink piglet exclaims to you, "Oink! No, you will not get my head! Oink!"

    A pink piglet bounces out of the room.

    And then Isluna had the head and foiled the gag completely, but I still got a laugh out of it.

       @Siam has declared you a formal enemy of the Divine Order of Viravain, Lady of the Thorns for this reason: 'assaulting the Ethereal Glomdoring'.


    :-O

    wait what. 1. not my timezone (that's 2 am my time on a sunday, sorry not awake there), plus _I don't raid_. Never have, not planning to. If you need to enemy me because of 'reasons', then at least enemy me for a reason that's correct.. Thank you :-|

    edit: I should clarify that this is not an attack on @Siam personally, it's just the latest of a lot of enemying for things that I have not done or that didn't even make remotely sense and which just make me extremely sad, as see below.

    It's entirely possible a miscommunication existed. You can always politely request it be overturned because you weren't involved! Sometimes mistakes happen :)

    @Lavinya it's just a trend that is starting to irk me. most of the organisations in questions have reasons to enemy me, but I try really hard not to be involved in raids (personal reasons) and restrict my PK's to events and defence and the occasional faethorn. And more then 80% of the enemying I've received, the people didn't even bother to look what I did, but instead just posted random something I've supposedly done. It irks me probably a lot more then it should irk me. They are enemies after all, but I'd rather have myself enemied for stuff I've done :-(

  • Eh, I got enemied to Glom for raiding even though I didn't participate. I messaged the person who enemied me but they didn't even bother to reply. What can you do in a situation like that but to just embrace the enemy status?
  • I got pre-emptively enemied to Glomdoring for being a Celestian combatant. Which, I'll admit, is at least accurate, though kind of odd.
    I'm Lucidian. If I don't get pedantic every so often, I might explode.
  • Inaccurate enemy statuses come from all organizations, and since carrying a status from an organization that is not on your 'team' has little implication on your day to day playing, there's no reason to feel any annoyance about it.
    See you in Sapience.
  • AeldraAeldra , using cake powered flight
    @twytch As far as I am concerned, am not very logical there, it irks me more then it should, really. And it's not the enemy status itself, it's more the reasons given for it. If the reasons would apply to something I've done, I would've shrugged, nodded, smiled and moved on.

    I feel like, in hindsight, I should've deleted the name of the person enemying me. It has nothing to do with him personally, it happens from all orgs, am sure.

    I understand the annoyance. I actually quit the game once after a few enemyings after playing a pacifict for RL years. But honestly, it's not worth getting upset about.

    I wasn't the one who did it, but I'm pretty sure the reason was that people were being enemied to Terentia and other Celestian (and in some cases Hallifax organizations) for just defending themselves on Ethglom or in Faethorn. Places that don't have anything to do with Terentia at all. Glom got pretty annoyed by it and some people have started pre-emptively enemying to Glomdoring just for being a combatant.

    Will say this, Nienla has and will overturn enemy statuses if you can provide reasoning as to why you don't feel it's justified. Like not being actually present at a raid or a Faethorn skirmish is one of them.

    Edit: I also view enemy statuses as merit badges, honestly. Gotta collect them all. Though, with my laurel scroll, I'm missing a few enemy statuses that I'm pretty sure I'd have were it not for the scroll. Oh well.

    I enemy anyone and everyone who fights against me, for whatever reason. (though I frequently forget to check if people are enemied, but don't worry, I'll get you eventually). 

    I also tend to unenemy for free.

    ... Why, though?

    And endless starless night
