  • Don't forget sap.
  • A few questions for the Admin that I've brought up over Envoys:
    • Why is there no conversion for mana buffs/maluses?
    • What does each value translate to? 1 level of EQ buff = how much faster? It's hard to gauge and make a decision on…
  • (Quote) I have to agree with @Lerad here in that reintroducing bal/eq bonuses and maluses feels like a step back from the standardization this Overhaul…
  • Just to chime in on this business about @Silea and the Pyromancers: it's very much possible to get access to mage skills without actually being in the guild if you …
  • @Eritheyl: Demigod endowments will more than likely be reworked considering +CON and +CHA no longer will apply in the new system. It'll be more likely to be a +H…
  • Before it diverges, no, giving anyone passive Inquisition would not be balanced. Yes, it's an example. No, it's not a literal suggestion before anyone takes it there,
  • Indeed, the current redesign of the races will enable certain ones like Igasho to be great in specific situations and not others. As a Blademaster, the Igasho weapon spec will always be of use to you, but the demi-level perk is very much a benefit m…
  • Everyone likes the steampunk vibe Geochems got.

    But yes,I agree - group wise, -chemwoods can supplement a kill easy, but then again anyone can also do so with the right knowhow. This, however, assumes the group already has a mel…
  • I'm just wondering why 12,300 as the arbitrary number for max stats? I'm just imagining that as a really long prompt; could it be tweaked to half that or so, or do the equations just not work out?

    As well, I suppose it looks abo…
  • Wow, even I have to call shenanigans on @Saoirse right there. As I and a number of other envoys clearly recall: Estarra gave sole judgment to in Tweets VI: The Tweetsixteenth Comment by Viynain June 2015
  • If the appointment of @Baelor is to curb or altogether avoid future incidents like this, why not also undo the incident in the first place?

    As…
  • Mmkay, thanks. Attack speed is still king when it comes to bashing neutral-resist critters, so I'm interpreting this as an intentional thing for melee classes/Destro-users to edge themselves ahead of casters because of the inherent speed of weapons/…
  • Because I'm curious (and I forget if I've already asked), once everything has been scaled to the 12's, are you looking to make class skills sort of at a base level in terms of damage output in bashing? Ie. a monk combo w/ weapons doing the same dama…
  • I think the logs will probably be for bashing and influencing first rather than combat, though I think two different threads to compile this information would probably be good. This way, the focuses aren't divided in a single thread and people don't…
  • If you're running M&M with a custom prompt, you can add in timestamps at the end of the string with a variable. I forget what that variable is currently, but you should be able to find it in the documentation.

    Edit: Mind, I'…
  • This change focused primarily on DW, so Mesmerize was not addressed. I'd recommend a bard envoy to look at it and see how it can be changed to address a need, or maybe just outright removed.
  • Ah, altogether new pathways, not faster pathways. Gotcha.

    Yep, no luck there. Doubt it will happen, unless more of Ecology wants to get gouged out.
  • Difference of opinion there. Attrition is now gone, and initial testing actually shows solo viability with a few more changes that I've already sent in.

    The wake time variance is a hurdle to get over, but nothing you can't work …

    Pretty sure dimensional needles already do this, akin to gateweaving.
  • Oh well!
  • An option for Elite Memberships to yield goop instead of dingbats would be interesting.
  • I can understand giving people chances, but even barring this OOC hatred that everyone clearly sees, looking at it ICly, it doesn't look to have played out. Then again, I'm not in Mag, soooo...
  • Here's a random question: why is Arcanis still in Mag? It doesn't sound to me he's too happy there, and that the current ruling council doesn't like him, so...why put up with it.
  • (Quote) +1 to the idea of adding a Total column to the BODYSCAN outputs. @Roark or
  • I feel this pain, even as a mage, actually. Whereas before my magic damage rune gave me a flat buff to all my damage regardless of the type, now I need to shell out more to cover the fire damage I inherently do, the asphyx and psychic damage I somet…
  • I ended up placing a damage enhancement rune on clothing and the effects work, but the rune itself doesn't show on the probed description of the piece of clothing.

    I bugged this and was classified, so any clarification would be …
  • I'm guessing they'll stack, but up to a certain cap. Ie. if TF's take you to say, 6/10 for health buffs, then tonics may go an additional 2/10 or something for a total of 8/10.
  • Racial regenerations and resistances haven't been converted into the system yet, so don't count on those outputs showing up (or not showing up) on BODYSCAN to be accurate.

    In regards to drunkenness in general, I don't know if th…
  • Sounds pretty accurately like me. Easy enough to tweak it in the present politics, so just drop me or another OH a tell or message if that becomes something you'd want addressed.
  • Thanks for posting that up, @Camberre. It looks like a few regenerations are still reporting */10 max values instead of their intended values. in Phase II: Buff Overhaul Comment by Viynain June 2015
