  • (Quote) You could make salient arguements that there are balance problems with limb damage as an uninterruptable kill window, or that the balance of limb damage with feint vs. parry is tilted too heavily in favor of the offensive. I am …
  • (Quote) Self quoting is cool.
  • A more accurate analogy to limb damage would be vodun. I am certain that you would consider vodun similarly acceptable, due to your status as an alpha male and how much you took advantage of it back in 2006, but for most people the ability to attack…
  • (Quote) Oh, I blocked his animated gif signature months ago. I was referring to the image macro that you posted that directly repeated what you had just said in your post without adding meaningful content.
  • If you wanted to classlead an interruptable channeled skill that cleanses someone of taint, I probably wouldn't care. It's a weak analogy, and I'm not aware of anyone actually using this strategy to build up taint mid-fight due to the other momentum…
  • If we're going to be clear about all of this, the only problem I have with limb damage is that it promotes 'kiting'. It takes a full minute of non-violence before your limb auto-cures, so someone could attack you once every 45 seconds while running …
  • (Quote) Nil is also false, for what that's worth.

    More than 0 being true, what really screwed me up when I first started using Lua is that empty strings ("") are also true. The only data types that return fal…
  • As I understand it, the names of the Predator toxins were done by Malkav and he picked them out randomly from any wikipedia article that contained the word 'poison' for any reason.
  • (Quote) Rebounding has always been time-able if you were not bad, though we might just have to disagree that 'lucking into kills against better opponents' is good game design.

    Take the aforementioned stupidity/impat…
  • (Quote) Both amusingly enough, because in a way they're the exact same thing.

    People that design offenses in a sterile workroom often find that they do not perform at all as intended once 'actual people' start throw…
  • (Quote) This world has never existed at any point in the history of Imperian. The people that took the time to learn the rules and build a proper offense have always beaten the cowboys that shot from the hip. There were certainly very s…
  • Alternate solution: You are simply bad at Imperian.

    You are probably a delightful person - very successful with a great job and an amazing relationship, but you have refused to adapt to the complexities of the modern game…
  • (Quote) What does the second half of this paragraph have to do with dodging? And what sort of person judges someone's masculinity based on their success in a text based RPG? Here, let me give it a try:

    I've noticed that ther…
  • (Quote) Summoner is in a pretty decent place now, as far as damage classes go. Their burst takes longer, and if you're going to invest in something like incinerate you do so at the exclusion of other alternatives.

    T…
  • (Quote) The ability to blind yourself with aspartame without consuming a healing balance is the reason that this does not work like you think it should.
  • (Quote) Unlocking the power of mitochondria? Us retro gamers know where this leads:

    No good can come of this work.
  • (Quote) Yes, and so would a disruptor fork.

  • (Quote) I have no problem with all generic heals being used automatically, but class based healing is often situational and discretionary. 
  • (Quote) This is the one point that I cannot stress enough. Perfect affliction tracking either via cure orders or some 'detection' skill would be the death of the complex back and forth that is Imperian combat.
  • Stupidity has already been nerfed to the point of being basically irrelevant.
  • Magick is the circle I would go to for the strongest group pvp mechanics currently available, because their classes have the strongest team synergy.

    That said, they'll figure it out at some point. This game is cyclic and no one …

  • That happens to Septus all the time.
