  • As for converting monks to the new system, I'm all for it as much as any other monk. Malarious has been organising monks to give feedback to the admin consistently and provide them ideas - it's not for a lack of trying. He's come up with at least 3 …
  • Actually, only the damage part is new. 39% damage used to be only unlocked at high wounds levels for a monk - definitely so for Nekotai, since all our spec'd slashes and kicks deal the exact same damage (and wounds pre-overhaul) as the basic slash a…
  • Monks in general are fairly lop-sided at the moment, yes. Some of their old limiters are gone, some of their old strategies have been knocked down in efficiency, and the compensation tweaks to the damage formula has shifted their position (and boost…
  • It's good, though. And don't worry about your preferences. You'll come around. I mean, just ask Yuuri:

  • Sidd's role was the best.
  • That's an automatically generated letter for the first time when you qq and something drops out of your inventory, if I'm not mistaken.
  • Regarding tah'vrai as a concept, I'm not a very lore kind of guy, so what I described was just what I personally came to feel while playing - so if I'm wrong about it, that's fine by me.

  • Probably the second case, then, unless I'm wrong about the cap.
  • Saran, I'm definitely not going to suggest adding more fae creatures. Daughters/ladies spawn off a specific number of fae turned in. Adding more fae is going to signal a change in the status quo of that, and that's out of the scope I intend in this …
  • (Quote) There is a cap, if I remember correctly, but tolerance also decays. It could be that it is decaying, and therefore everytime you drink to the usual tolerance building level, it triggers the message.

    Either that or it'd disp…
  • (Quote) I used "anecdotal" because that is the nature of such testimonials - they can't be statistically replicated. That doesn't neccesarily mean it is unreliable, though. The people whose names you quoted are examples of people who grew through c…
  • I think I've had about enough of the "grown softer" argument, enough that I'm going to try to dispute it now. Edit: This took a while to write, but the direction of the thread actually moved toward discussing people having fun or not due to a mechan…
  • Qendyl was glom for some time. I got that everytime I cw'd while he was online, so I know what you're talking about.

    I'm still expressing my absolute disbelief it's worth anything more than "Oh, he has that artie." There's literally nothi…
  • ... wait. People were targeting Qendyl because he was wearing a marauder's mask?

    Sorry, I know this is a tangent and distraction from what is being discussed. But... what?

    I hope he at least threw some insults your way or set a…
  • Ah, right, you're talking about the android version. I missed that for some reason.

    Well, truth be told the original versions are probably ugly as sin, if viewed objectively and without rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia.

    The mus…
  • Regarding the fae specifics that you can't check at the moment:

    Each fae gives 2p when turned in. There are a total of 27 fae, 3 of each type, of which there are 9. 3 types roam on the ground, 2 in the trees and 4 in the skies.

  • What.

    Those classic sprites are (were) the best thing about the classic FF games. What.
  • The original SNES version of FF IV to VI play well enough, bugs and all, on the PC for you to jump in, too.
  • I'm personally not opposed at all, and very interested indeed, in changing fae mechanics, making things more dynamic between Serenwilde/Glom fae gathering, and at least ensuring that Communes don't get shafted by a huge margin in terms of active pow…
  • You know, Yarith. Veyils can be very abrasive at times, more so than me and you, and that's saying something. But each of his post in this thread reads to me as a genuine attempt to offer constructive suggestions and new ideas, cordially. His sugges…
  • Old passive power and how much it is worth is not really relevant to the discussion of this report. Not to mention, of course, that segue into Hallifax's power quest. I don't know how the Hallifax power quest works, and I have zero interest in findi…
  • As the original writer of 1374, I'll obviously be more than happy if Estarra changes her mind and implements a solution from there. That's her choice. I'm not going to make 1580 solutions the same as 1374 solutions, though. Those solutions are still…
  • Ah, so that sentence is in reply to me saying I don't care.

    Okay, so other people are calling for more parity. I don't care - I will take suggestions that have consensus and sounds fair, wherever the source. It can be Crek's ideas, who ha…
  • (Quote) I won't quote my sarcastic reply to your post about power power power power return us all the power etc.

    A report on parity would be 1374. The admin have rejected that, and have explicitly said they are against direct city/commun…
  • @Leolamins, the report allows you to continue cutting trees. It keeps intact every facet of protecting the trees rp which is central to communes. It allows this…
  • (Quote) 50 essence creatures so you can bash them all? Sure. I'll put that in if there's support for it. Or we can not add any essence creatures, and go ahead with what's stated in the solutions, if there's support for that. I don't fucking car…
  • I'm not going to pursue equivalence, because that will be doomed to failure. Verbatim from Estarra:

    Communes and cities were never meant to have exactly the same mechanics (in fact we wanted the mechanics, downsides and…
  • (Quote) There are less essence generating mobs in ethereal than elemental. Not sure exact numbers, but around 10 or so compared to 25-27 on elementals. I think. My numbers might be inaccurate. Etheral ones also don't respawn.

    There are …

    On more constructive discussion:
     
    1580 is made with the explicit intention to do nothing about the defense discrepancy of statues versus totems. An attempt to do so in 1374 was rejected - wh…
