    Your argument doesn't actually give a good reason to keep speed bonuses on weapons. First of all, ignoring the theoretical numbers, what you're basically saying is that if we provide enough speed bonuses from other places (…
  • With the resistances being on a capped tier system, the cloak artifact can probably remain as it is, so an extra layer of elemental protections on top of possible armour protections (just like it can layer on top of tattoo resistances).
  • Sorry for posting when I'm not a player, but, I've been waiting for a relevant topic somewhere, anywhere, to post this picture, and I never imagined I'd find it in the mafia thread. But, well.

  • I'd like to echo Shedrin's point about balance/equilibrium. Please don't put it in as a "choice", you might as well remove it, speed everyone up by that amount and remove one slot for all weapons, and you'll get the same meta, because even 0.1s incr…
  • It most certainly is - speaking from experience.
  • I just noticed that you can't apply salves to a specific leg or arm. APPLY HEALTH/MENDING/REGENERATION TO LEFT LEG will not work, syntax has to be LEGS.

    Is this a recent change?
  • Yeah, moving domoths to organisational ownership will make it so that individuals are not obliged to stay logged out to prevent absolves or contests or claims. It does come at the cost of creating an obligation for people to log IN to try and contes…
  • To do that would be to make it an organisational based claim, which may not be a bad idea. Domoths are already organisational, but the control over its starting is simply given to an individual currently. If we make it an org based mechanic, where t…
  • I learned about IRE from nuklearpower.com way back before there was the concept of "customer service" in IRE games. Let's just say topmudsites is not the only avenue of advertising for IRE muds, and I'm not going to go listing things for you which y…

  • (Quote) That's a lot of virgins.
  • I think the requirements are fine, except for the time frames. Well, and the number of people to talk to. You don't really need to talk to all the different GMs as a requirement (I'm assuming it's the GM). I'm sure they would protest and seek you ou…
  • Achaea is the most popular IRE game because that's the game the corporate advertising and resources are concentrated on. Not because it is somehow more balanced on the combat scene.

  • Ghostwalk is one of the abilities I've been grappling with somehow making more useful eventually. Hopefully. Suggestions welcome!

    Not all races are created equal, but most, if not all, racial powers, even at the demi+ level, hav…
  • Cloaks and coats can be proofed, and I THINK tabards can be as well (they're under the same ability in the tailoring skillset) but I'm not too sure. If tabards can't be proofed, that be an explanation why there are much less tabards than coats.
  • Just to weigh in on this a bit.

    Disclaimer: I don't have that much time to log in during Lusternian peak on weekdays anymore, and most of my activity is usually confined to the quieter hours, so my opinion doesn't really have mu…

  • Neither, just one of the perks of living in a country with a conscript army: getting the chance to take a break from my job to go for "refresher training" without showering or other amenities for a few days a year.
  • It's also not comprehensive anymore, unfortunately.
  • On first sight, that looked like...
  • Yeah. Luckily Mudlet insists on saving profiles in C:/ so I still have my system. Yay, I guess.
  • So, I dodged a bullet by cleaning my PSU and saving it. But one week later, I'm out of $125. =(

  • WB.

    Just as a note, your mask ritual doesn't need the GM to perform it - we're a little short-handed on novice aides and therefore can't cover every timezone 24/7, but there's usually someone around who can perform the ritual at…
  • Edit: oops, my brain wasn't working. The correct picture is below:

  • Celina is possibly talking about non power moves. Stance/parry percentages also probably have changed, due to the standardization of dex. At the same time, that same standardization on top of str probably gave a boost to the average warrior's wounds…
  • Will be out in the jungle with my rifle and feeding mosquitoes for the next ~48 hours. Probably won't log on even if there's reception in there.
  • I stopped being able to get away with not replying whatever was said to me (and not snubbing so they could go on talking to themselves) when I took up positions that actually required administrative work done, like unenemyships and all. Sadface.
  • 1/6 is the max, I think.
  • To be fair, even if Marcella didn't burn the bridge, there wouldn't have been very many Glom people around to cross it last year. I might have made more of an effort to wake up at 4am to join in, I suppose, but even putting me into the picture, it w…
  • Flying has a few combat applications - notably as an escape skill. It effectively brings you "out" of the room, and therefore can no longer be targeted or hit by passive effects. There are, however, some notable counters to this, including aeromance…
  • I've never played the class personally, so I'm not 100% sure of the specifics, but you will want to look into how you can cycle or stack shattered ankles, and how long of a window of prone time it can give you for free hits on your opponent. Figurin…
