  • I don't really have a meaningful dog in this fight anymore. That said:

    I suggest making comments pseudonymous, rather than plain anonymous. Assign every commenter a random ID or name, like the Vengeance personas... and for all the …
  • (Quote) ??? Just a box for money?
  • When an election ends, your vote weight at that exact moment is the only thing counted. 
  • The way PvP (raiding) xp costs are currently structured is intended specifically and explicitly to curb excessive Inagin style dive-bomb, never leave raids. I have opinions on how this could better be managed, but it's a whole lot more complicated t…
  • Why? The point of PvP xp loss is to discourage excessive PvP/raiding. The point of PvE xp loss is.... uh.... um... You basically MUST do PvE one way or another, no matter what the penalties and risks are to access most if not all of the mechanical p…
  • PvP xp loss is its own entirely different thing that deserves more nuanced treatment. PvE loss, death to npcs in non-enemy territory, should just flat vanish. 
  • (Quote) Then it's not doing its job in keeping people cautious etc. and needs to be re-examined on that basis. 

    The ostensible point of having a negative consequence to dying in PvE is to force you to change your behavior or risk <…

    Out of curiosity, what video games do you play? [emphasis mine]

    EDIT: More to the point, how old are they? That kind of really insane punishment for failure is an outmoded game model not seen in anything but say... ro…
  • Resurgem works for non-Serens too, it's just more expensive if you don't have Stag or Moon totem and there are arpee reasons to not resurgem all foreigners. 
  • Or just give -woods a skill that works like masquerade. Temporarily shift back to your regular form, can't use (most?) -wood spec skills until you turn it off. 

    That way you can use your racial perks for whatever else you want to do? I gu…
  • Is that the one that colors your emotes when you put gold in? 
  • (Quote) dreamweaving, warping the fabric of reality since... forever, basically. 
  • (Quote) What (in a nutshell) was it? Was the Nirvana thing unrelated?
  • We need a new trademarked phrase like "Soon(tm)" that means "I see your idea and think it is a good idea and plan to do that idea (or something close) time allowing, it's been written down and will eventually get done when there is spare time" but w…
  • Yeah. It was a combatant that pointed out that "Hey, I know it says "Have masochism", but have you considered that "have masochism" is just a short hand for "must be able to be masochistic", aka not in combat?" 

    That exact phrase (…
  • "God just sent me a message"
  • Someone should make a notes module to replace the ndb functionality. I guess I'll take a whack at it. Woo!
  • I'd be way more hype about any curio anything if you could trade curios for currency and tilt for certain kinds of curio. 
  • (Quote) That said, even if (say) Serenwilde doesn't have free discretionaries, we have enough of a conquest pool to cover full discretionaries for... a very long time. In effect there is no power cost. 

    EDIT: Presumably Glom has so…
  • When in doubt, use 'u's. And also s instead of z. That's mostly it. 
  • There's also no fail condition for these raids (or any raids really), so they just kinda grind on until they peter out when sufficient numbers of raiders get bored... and sometimes not even then. 

    EDIT: So yeah, this is kind of a problem,…
  • (Quote) The pathtwist thing will be trueish, but is not currently :p


    EthGlom Avatars create kill rooms (w…
  • What is the logic of having a guild picked in the introduction?

    It makes WAY more sense to pick a guild after the entire collegium period, once the new character/player has a basic feel for the org and for what each guild is about from be…
  • You can't steal books if you break into a guildhall currently. 
  • Finals. And also a family visit because my dad has perfect timing. 
  • So specifically it's for people who classflex in a way that would change their maximum armor level, but also really want aethergears and want maxed out physical resists. That seems like  a decided minority of players in Overhauled Armour, Suits etc Comment by Enyalida April 2017
  • Beast sleep/shieldstun/stab morphite isn't relying on sleep putting you down, it's relying on stun and... that combo doesn't strip kafe (As I noted).  So any delay in WAKE beyond latency is due to some overlying condition that would delay you that e…
  • Celerity buffs? No. 

    Use strategems to send a long series of stacked movement commands and count how many rooms you move before a hasty message.
