  • Ah, yeah, I completely forgot about them; I was dormant when they were released, and I literally just ran down the list on HELP RACES. Even more so, then!
  • Divinus is utterly superior for bashing, especially since all of the astral things are weak to it, as are a lot of other high-level bashing mobs.
  • Yeah, I think you're right in that weaknesses have grown in importance while resistances have decreased, which kind of stinks. Maybe it's not a matter for the overhaul, but it'd be nice if at some point it could get another look from a more zoomed-o…
  • Also, are you referring to the one at the end of 2010? Announce 1682?
  • It's less about individual races and more about damage types, personally-- specifically, fire damage is ludicrously common (and is also the damage type for things like Destruction), and ten races are vulnerable to it while three are resistant. Meanw…
  • While we're overhauling combat (which I'm hopeful about, despite not having seen all that many specifics thus far), is there any chance that racial weaknesses and resistances with regard to damage types can be looked at?  I was curious the other day…

    Must be nice. Here on the East Coast, we get to sing the song the way it was originally, frozen skywater and all. In late March.
  • All I can say is, you might get fewer jokes about Parks and Recreation if you had a giant statue of Forren backing you up!
  • Then who's McGonagall, and when do they get to animate the statues?
  • Maybe I'm just a cynic, and not to knock Synkarin's post, which is a fairly well-written version of the phenomenon, but it seems to me like "lol your city sucks, just surrender to us because we're better" posts aren't really anything new. They've be…
  • Today I sat down and cranked out about a level and a half. Only one level to go until 90. I will get Demigod. Eventually. Somehow.
  • I'm afraid any cry of 'kids these days' rings a bit hollow when literally every generation ever has found cause to complain about the generation succeeding. As Plato put it, "What is happening to our young people? They disrespect their elders, they …
  • Not all of Ileein's projects have been approved by the Ethics Board. Or indeed precisely disclosed to the Ethics Board. (If the Institute had an Ethics Board anyway. I'm not 100% certain it does.) It's not exactly a secret, it's just not some…
  • Quick question-- if you consume an epic ikon, and then a legendary one, does the 200% bonus supersede the 100% one?
  • Everiine and Terentia, sitting in a tree
  • Out of curiosity, I recently learned Stratagem in Combat, and turned on the option for m&m to use them. I haven't immediately noticed any changes; how does m&m use stratagems,  if the option is enabled?
  • Honestly, I've always thought a better testament to the man's legacy would be for nobody beyond his immediate family to go to, or care about, his funeral.
  • It's not entirely a rave, but with all of my bonuses up, I've managed to finally reach 16 CHA as a prismatic lucidian. Yay, I'm not utterly repugnant. It's not quite at the sweet spot of 17-18, but I firmly intend to influence to demi, mixed …
  • (Quote) Guilty as charged, and for that reason that would be a lovely artifact idea. On the other hand, I really don't like when class skills are sold as artifacts.
  • Can I suggest a new flag, to go alongside "Off Topic" and abuse flag? "Vaguebook," for vague Facebook style posts?
  • Right. Not to cause a flame war or anything, but I wasn't here for the beginning of the overhaul, so what's the latest news on that?
  • ATTENTION CITIZENS THE PRESENCE OF A CRITICAL HUG CASCADE HAS BEEN DETECTED PLEASE REPORT TO CRISIS BUNKERS AT ONCE
  • Forget Beacon of Harmony. Halli's real city title is Revenge of the Nerds.
  • Man, tripartate discussions are in fact tough! I'm very sorry what you've gotten from my point of view is that I want the forums to be a fluffy cuddlebunny land, because that's neither what I said or what I meant. You're right, though, that this dis…
  • You may perhaps have confused me with someone else? I don't use words I don't mean!
  • Actually, I think a Tweets thread is a terrible idea, partially because it's not really a Tweets thread and partially because it's a hideous death trap where moderators go to die. But that's neither here nor there. Nor,  indeed, is my enjoyme…
  • Here's the thing, though-- if you're just doing petty sniping (as you two were above), you aren't contributing anything to the forum environment. I'm a firm believer that if a discussion isn't contributing anything but letting everyone know that you…
  • please don't do this
