  • (Quote) Half tempted to bid on custom doll and just say give me Luciphage instead. Doesn't feel like it is part of the doll pool.
  • I don't think we can unring the bell on new guilds without doing more harm than good. Rather than wanting to delete and remake a new system, should focus on how to make them more interesting and enliven them.

    It does sometime feels like a…
  • Sorry for the double post but another thought I had is differentiating between the creative trades and the profitable trades. May take refinement on deciding which trades are under which category.

    But for instance having one slot for the …
  • Something I mentioned on discord but I think is worth bringing up here is how this system will encourage metagaming alts to get around the trade limits.  This could be done in a way that isn't directly against the current rules at the moment.
    <…
  • One thought I had regarding aethertrading and the need for new characters to be able to get goop (gnome weapons for instance are pretty much essential). Rather than trying to find a way to fit in goop generations, maybe all existing ASHOP goop costs…
  • (Quote) That's kind of a poor example, there's little mechanical reason for people to need food, much less buy it. Most people that take cooking take it for aethertrading, they enjoy designing cooking, and giving away food/drinks to people. M…
  • I noticed all drinks are getting moved from cooking to brewmeister, how is that going to work with private designs that are part of a cooking cartel? Cooking is mostly just a fun rp skill with very little mechanical need, kind of sad to see things b…
  • The Emperor’s Lament!
  • I feel like what I really want to see is the confrontation that was hinted at but not shown here, what a tease.
  • On the topic of newbie retention, one thing which I've often wondered about is "secret guilds."  I'm not sure if any other guild besides Society even has this enabled.  For those who don't know what it does, it hides any members who are online (exce…
  • Looks interesting!

    Some comments I would have about the system though that would need to be considered are below.

    1. How would orgs be able to help allies in revolts in this system? Currently allies can debate members of the ot…
  • Clans do not quite work on this, just tested. Below is an example of how it shows in the capture.

                               
    09:08:35 ([4zSEND HREF="channelinfo clt"D'Vanecu Flayed Scrolls[4z/SEND): You say, "Test."

  • That was a fun mini-event.

    Also I'm soooo glad there was no Veritus n'Rotri involvement.
  • Snowpocalypse fun. Been dealing with a loss of power, water, and cold.

    Needless to say looking doubtful I’ll be around until this dystopian hell gets settled.

    Edit: I survived been back a few days now.
  • 1.  Commodities is the big shortage. Fruit especially is an issue even for Magnagora which is likely along with Serenwilde probably has the best (only?) generation of it with Estelbar/Acknor. Tattoos was mentioned. Enchantments can also be a problem…
  • Please kindly don't put words into my mouth for what I'm suggesting. I did not say the above and slippery slope arguments are a logical fallacy.

    Edit: I've no intention of getting into a debate, I've said my opinions above, any additional…
  • Honestly this is one of the questions that admin really need to define internally in regards to what their goal is with the economy overhaul.

    Personally, I am okay with trades -not- being huge money makers but rather something somebody do…
  • Given how popular artifacts that are essentially non-decay versions of enchantments are, I think it is fair to say that a large portion of the game doesn't care for tedious upkeep.
  • My own KISS principle suggestion on commodities generation is giving each city an npc to turn in commodities for refining and doing a pass to make sure there's a more level playing field on comm quests (more fruit/veggies/wood/metal).

    How…
  • (Quote) Please no, that will only make the issue of some guilds not having high populations even more apparent.
  • 1.  All of the orgs have pockets of RP in them, find one with a theme that you like.
    2.  I think any org can be fine for a new player. I play in one of the darker orgs, and we don't jump down newbie's throats. Some orgs have a bit more of an ac…
  • Potentially divisive topic here, but can anything be shared about the plans for Ascension in 2021 yet?
  • (Quote) Your grandmother is my cousin.

    Wait a minute...

    Adal is your cousin on mother Lavinya's side.
    Sapphira is Adal's granddaughter through Noira.
    Sapphira is your wife.
  • Praise the Everd... I mean congrats to the new producer!

    Mag's lore is topnotch and I have no doubt to that level of excellence being applied to the rest of the game.
  • Magnagora's wreaths have lore from one of my favorite points in lore - all the calamity that happened right after the taint. That we finally got to see the long teased Firica d'Vanecu, terror of the d'Vanecu men makes it even better.
  • I just hope that because we gave him clothes that doesn't mean he can go free now.
  • I didn't want to make a whole thread for this, so I'll just post the log here as my rave.

  • Psh. The i’Xiia asylum totally counts as a mugwump community (for all the wrong reasons).  The i’Xiia were originally a mugwump family and took it as a bribe from the Emperor to not cause trouble about Soulforge and ostensibly to help rehabilitate t…
  • A fun minievent for a customization I got.  <3

    I hope the others involved enjoyed it too, ended up roping in more people…
  • (Quote) Whew, this became a lot longer than expected. Enjoy!
