  • (Quote) Please do this... I'd already seen these posts and knew they'd probably be dear to my heart, but after sucking up a lot of deaths in our sect today, I found myself frantically bashing (which I hate in the first place) because I felt "guilt…
  • Yeah, not sure.  Only reason I say that is, because when you mentioned the increased returns on offering, I remembered that, after we'd mined a bunch last time and had some essence, I'd look at my faith, and see "oh cool, I have more faith and have …
  • Ah, okay, so that really is THE thing it does.  I honestly wasn't sure, and got the impression on ring that it might be someting the entity uses for cool stuff.  I'll happily die gloriously either way.
  • (Quote) When we had some essence last time I could have sworn that the faith/belief regenerated a little bit more without offering (and hrm, maybe you get more for offerings too).  Is that it though?
  • Sorry, what I mean is, once you infuse the altar, you get the .01% essence for the fragment, but then... the essence just decays over time (as I understand it from the explanation I got).  So unless your sect somehow uses it pretty quickly (I think …
  • (Quote) This would be really nice.

    Also, I just found out that mined essence for sect/cults just... decays.  I mean, it's still fun to fight with everyone over the statues on the rare occasions they're available, but now I gue…
  • Ever since I found the "New" Imperian (I slept through "Old" Imperian, and it sounds like that was lucky for me), I can never quite believe it exists and I'm almost constantly afraid it will turn into Achaea (not that Achaea is completely horrible o…

  • Black cats best cats.  
  • But it's always your fault.  Always!  
  • It's weird to me that one smithing thing would get standardized while the other remains RNG.  
  • (Quote) I definitely love ideas 1 and 2 (and the quote here shows 3 as 1 because I can't figure out how to remove the formatting).  This one, it really depends on what people envision smithing being.  If we do it like this, absolutely everyone lik…
  • We didn't have the number of batshit forgers Achaea did before this change, although I was still overjoyed at standardization for the same basic reasons.  It means I don't have to hunt around for a "good" weapon (or worse, try to forge one myself) a…
  • That's an Imperian given... I mean, every circle has a few combat leaders, and those people do the leading.

  • Well, without getting too deep into this in a newbie thread, Imperian already has something very special (in nothing but a good way) in comparison to many other MUDs when it comes to the general attitude towards RP here.  We'd all already be elitist…
  • That's true (because if the defenders win, they also shut down the obelisk fight).  I'm okay with some "exclusive" PK events in general, because I know you top tier guys are sort of champing at the bit for those opportunities, and when it's presente…

  • Thanks, that's more than I could have hoped for.  I was thinking "some categories of things probably *really* need to be homogenous, but I wouldn't have any idea of how to characterize those categories".  I mean, Khizan basically seemed to be saying…
  • Obelisks have stagnated lately and it makes me sad.  At least everyone has two, and that's better than one faction having most of them.  But yeah, we're not fighting over them much in Obelisks. Comment by Jules March 2015
  • (Quote) Yeah, would have to let the Ithaquans chime in.  It's a small town for sure.  Demonic circle (and Khandava in particular, both in this thread and in general) is usually where I hear about the most RP, and Demonic seems to just now be on a …
  • You've got some of the best guys giving their take on race, stat packs and classes... 

    I don't have the background some of these guys do across the orgs, having only played Antioch, but I've found Ithaqua's occasional RP t…
  • Don't do it.  Khizan tried to warn me, but I couldn't resist the cryptic help files, vague descriptions, irritating command syntax and cool mercenary names
  • Personally, I like big wheels for their lower center of gravity, although the turning radius leaves something to be desired.  Look, not everyone has the sheer grace and athleticism to master the unicycle, plus, clown school is no joke
    in I HEART Comment by Jules March 2015
  • Hrm, based on what Khizan said, I am thinking of homogenization as like... stock car racing or something, basically, in the sense that the idea is that everyone gets the same "tools" (which then allows you to balance around those tools because they'…
  • Are people for or against homogenization then?  I can't quite tell for sure here.  It seems like it would make it so much easier to balance things, but a lot of players tend to hate it because it's "boring" (I know Septus has stated that he feels th…
  • I love it, I've always wanted to do a real horse camping trip.  Sounds like a busy spring!  
  • Well, I always love just taking the horses out on trails.  It's good for them, too.  The black gelding and red mare do polo (low goal, no one playing with Prince William here, but it's the most fun I've ever had with horses, and that's saying a lot)…
