Ah dammit I logged in this morning and chose "Chaotic Good". I only have 3k plat, too. Too bad the bank dosen't earn interest. . . I'd be like Fry waking up after a thousand years to oodles of compounded interest! I noticed the Corth 'spit keepalive macro', haha. So I guess we all went and...

What would it cost to get a gargle-goyle in my likeness (get it?!) placed at the very bottom of the urinal?!

Hey guys! Great to hear from you! I'll try to log in sometime soon! Does Corth still perma-AFK? Are you still perma lvl 48 (or 49?) lol I think Weylarii is still level 49 from the last Tia fiasco!

You guys kick out the old inactives, eh? :) If I can manage to log in sometime I think I have a bit of platinum, probably! Unless I gave that to Touk along with the rest of my stuff. Hooray Elders!

Hi! Got a bit nostalgic and thanks to Google, here I am! Amazing Toril lives on and with so many familiar names! I still tell stories of our adventures to new and old friends about the dawn of MMO's and how Toril/Sojourn helped start it all! I can't express how happy I am to see the legacy living o...

Agreed. . . there is no simple solution =( What I really hate is that now that we're in Iraq, how can we pull out in good conscience? We'll leave the Iraqi people defenseless against foriegn insurgents who come in to take power and we end up with another dictator. If we stay, we're the unholy oppres...

Avak - I understand your two final points (that they won't work). . . but what will work? It is obvious you can't negotiate with people who kill innocents. Lets say we give in. .. and give them their "demands" (does anyone really know what they want? Do THEY know themselves?). Let us assume its kick...

Waelos

Well, the way Vampiric Touch works (I think) is that during its duration, every hit you make on a mob will transfer 1/2 your damage done to you has hps. Once you get over your max, you continue to 'fatten up' on hitpoints. The old vampires for necros did this, certain artifact weapons did this (oh, ...

Waelos

I agree with Kifle. . . nicely put. Sounds to me the author of that article is just as closed minded and retarded as your average redneck bible thumper who's looking to "'git them turbin heads". Just because someone "has perspective" on something doesn't make them right. They're still fully capable ...

Waelos

While I agree Anti's might be a step behind Paladins, I really don't think they're that bad off. Lets just forget about ambran vs. unholy. There is no contest that unholy is probably the best weapon in game (other than Khanjari, but Khanjari isn't really a weapon, its more of a minor artifact that p...

Hello!

Who is this guy? I'd love to see more work by this guy. Any info would be t3h r0xorz!

Thanks!

Congrats man!!! =) Awesome!! Get well soon so we can have Mud Nuptuals! Or however you spell it!

I like the concept. If we can convince the powers that be that we need to bring rogues back down to earth in power, that is. A few tweaks/suggestions: Tweaks to rogues: 1) Allow rogues to assinate humanoid mobs only (giants excluded). This keeps in the theme of "realism". 2) Remove rogue double atta...

Waelos

I like this, if it can be cast on warriors only.

Why?

So they can 2h if they want and not get hosed too hard =)

Waelos

So, Kifle. . . you're saying the primary nich for rogues is and should be melee damage? You can see no other merit in the rogue class? Poisons? backstab? circle? Vital Strike? Instant kill assassinate? Garrote? Trip? Hide+sneak? Track? Escape? All of those varied (and save for track, unique) skills ...

Waelos

Bah, y'all beat me to it.

Rog, you nut! I hope you're doing well man. . . heard about it from JG and you're one lucky guy. My (our!) thoughts and prayers are with you. I'll let you detail it when you're feeling up to it.

Oof. Yea, Dragons are juuust fine! Especially that anything with "Lizard" in the description, or scales, or a forked tongue gets most of the draconic abilities =P

PS - Why aren't we flagged Dragon? I have more dragonscales on me than some dragons! *harumpf!*

Lost ;)

Waelos

Just adding my 2 cents again, so you don't think silence is agreement. Rangers should never be an archery dependent class. At the very most, there should be specialization options at whatever levels. The only reason people keep trying to nail us into that stupid square hole is because what we're sup...

Waelos

Give them guard!

Waelos

Hi! Perhaps there is a compromise. . . perhaps the most powerful defensive spells should not be able to be cast on warrior types? Perhaps certain defensive spells shouldn't stack any more? That way, you'll have to find the best combination of defensive spells for the class and situation and cast acc...

Waelos

Hah! So clever ;) Anyway! I've been hearing tell of the insane new "swallowing procedures" of rhemoraz and the like. Without question, any ability that instantly kills a player is bordering on overpowered. Especially if there is no limit to the creatures that can be swallowed. So, I propose a compro...

Waelos

Wholly Crap! Good to see you man. Not sure you'd remember me, but I remember you! (One of the reasons Im still wearin' the ranger green). Anyway, hope all is well with you!

Love the idea! Give the new guys a kind of title. . ."Loopy Hardbow - Ranger Apprentice of Weylarii"

or

"Foolio Druidio - Soon to be Very Dead Apprentice of Moritheil"

*poke*

Awesome Idea.

Maybe give them an xp boost / skill learn boost when grouped with mentor. . .

Lost

Waelos

Ahh, I think I understand. . . You would like the ability to swap stats AFTER the bonuses are added, just in case? I think that is an idea that has some merit. . . It is pretty easy to get high scores without that option though. It takes a bit of time (its a pain) but you can get nearly perfect stat...

Waelos

Ashiwi- With that kind of attitude/response, it makes ME not want to play here. Not that I care if you care or not, and not that you care what I think (you've made it abundantly clear that you don't give a crap about anyone but yourself!), but I really thought you were nicer than that. So you keep o...

Waelos

Mori - Actually I have to say that my experience is quite different. . . Since nature's blessing came into the game I rarely am the first to die due to an area spell. I think that has a lot to do with being elven and having nature's blessing. I believe that elves have a sort of innate spell damage r...

Waelos

Kir - Lets get together in game some time. . . we'll line up a mob, have someone tank it and we'll run some tests with ranger melee vs ranger bow. It may just be a difference in opinion on how the ranger can and should be played. Certainly I've found that the middle ground can be walked upon. . . it...

Waelos

With all due respect, all I have seen and tested points to Lorsalian being correct. Archery is not all you think it is. It has some uses, but for straight up damage it is slightly better than unhasted melee. Hasted melee blows it out of the water (at least, for me.) I have to add that caveat as I've...

Waelos

Been waiting 10 years already. . . Um. Gonna keep waiting 10 more I guess! There are more pressing issues, of course. . . melee balance being one of them (which would go far to helping rangers. . .but since rogues are better at melee anyway it doesn't exactlt help the ranger). Anyway, point is. . .d...

Llaad - Do you mean something like a switch targets for archery? You can't switch targets with archery. . . you have to either disengage or cease fire (an actual command) and target another mob =) If you're engaged in any sort of melee you can't use archery unless you disengage, flee and come back, ...

Hello! Just got to read Llad's last post so I thought I'd give my 2 cents worth here. Any specific questions can be directed to me in game, mmail or on the board.

Hello. Shevarash - I've sent you several emails that outline just how and why khanjari dagger is over powered. I've seen the same sentiment echoed several times here on the boards.

I'll stay logged in to charge some ridiculously long charge time proc items =) Cuz mostly they're busted and should probably charge in 24min considering the power of the proc (cloak, cough, cloak). =)

Waelos

Ditto that. It's ID is broken and I think, while generally very cool idea, that the procs are broken. I'll explain why: Proc 1 is based off of parry. Proc 2 is based off of Riposte. (that info is from testing it out) The combat code checks to see if the mob hits your AC before even trying to check p...

Hello. I'd have to say that a pwipe would eliminate 75-90% of the active members of the "older" guilds (say, Imphras and Scions/Elders/DSR(wow!). 50-75% of the mature guilds (Northern Star / Shades of Twilight/etc) and about 25% of the newer guilds (sorry I don't list y'all here and I dont mean to o...

Hate to keep bringing this up but if you're gonna downgrade tiamat items because they were 'too easy to get' then how in the sake of hot butter can you have NOT downgraded all the Khanjari's that were quested to godliness with a few plat? Gormal is right. Those who quested, saved, fought and did all...

Waelos

See, that's where I also disagree. No attempt has ever really been made to make rangers the melee damage elite. First, there were monks (rangers in the back seat) and now there are rogues (this time rangers getting dragged around behind the car) No serious attempt to make the class work as a melee d...

Waelos

In my opinion, further archery tweaks should be scrapped. Too much work for too few coders. Let them all work on melee, fix rangers in that regard and in the process balance all other classes. Sarvis: Your spell list is exactly the same as the ranger list now. . .and I think that is one of the weake...

Shev/Shar -

Thank you for the response. I will let this thread get back on topic.

Shev/Shar I have had faith that the ranger class would be fixed for oh, 10 years now at least. It is _very_ hard to keep faith when I see things like the following in the news: "[Shevarash] Woopty Doo. - Rogues/Bards/Battlechanters base hitroll adjusted to be similar to that of the other hitter clas...

All tiamat items were downgraded. I think it is ridiculous. Apparently, the people who matter don't. So, nothing gonna change. I've tried to contact just about every Imm I know of and none of them have responded either on the board or via mmail or tells. Well, some do but they usually direct me to o...

Heya V, how about you and me park our downgraded tia item owning asses at 1w and contemplate the true nature of uselessness? We can have tea, and crumpets and you could tickle me with your carpet of bugs. Sound fun?

I think that is slated for the rogue upgrades v 4.76
