Kiting has a lot of costs associated with it and instead of trying to force everyone to use the same tactics in each fight (something they did in Aetolia to disastrous effect), you could just explain what it is about kiting that is too good, and the…

Really, I had no idea that you were referring to me.

yeah his signature is pretty bad, I guess Ahkan imagines himself to be a rude little gremlin, I wonder why

If taint with a doppleganger, danaeus, etc. isn't promoting kiting, it's only because a lot of the summoners have so many artifacts that they can't be bothered to walk out of a room and not because taint doesn't deserve to get at least the same trea…

(Quote) Well, LoL still has critical hits and every single attack has a randomized factor to the damage dealt. But yes, it's not a good analogy because LoL has graphics, positioning and coordination elements that Imperian doesn't have.…

A linear game which follows the chess format, who wants to play pay-to-win chess? Imagine that the other guy can buy more pieces than you can. Without any significant random factors to manage, that's what Imperian is approaching being turned i…(Quote) I'm not trying to convince you guys. That's what, four people who have always felt that way? When Imperian was in its prime, the mods used to ignore this movement to remove all timing and random chance. And more people were pl…(Quote) Don't tempt me
I don't think I can take this million dollar EB-5 case a guy is offering me. I …Back in the game, I was able to get a lot of the people in this thread to agree with me that controlled randomness can be good. I think, though, that they are still not getting my underlying point. If the randomness can't make someone win where th…No, that's not true. Guys that bought things like twisty rings before going into battle because they wanted to fight from their spreadsheets believe that Imperian was always like this. By the way, how can you go from "you can't handle the new Impe…Yeah, I'm bad at Imperian... no wait. Apparently you can't answer my question.Is combat supposed to be about the management of danger or about the management of facts?(Quote)No, what's silly is that you think "combat" should be about the management of "facts." This is why you are a scrub. People used to go into combat in the IRE games and their hands would shake from adrenaline. T…Case in point, this movement to nerf limb damage. It seems to me that since people usually don't die to afflictions anymore, they don't want people to die to limb damage anymore either.I mean, think about it: limb damage is pa…(Quote) All randomness is not the same. Regarding Lusternia, their randomness was things like "you can't control which affliction you are passively giving" and then they combined this with moon tarot and a race with level 3 resistances…Maybe I will go through this more later... one more thing... consider that currently the 1-2 afflictions given by most noctu spells are completely useless, but with this kind of mechanic, they would actually integrate perfectly towards a segway to a…(Quote) Please forgive my triple posting guys, I just noticed that Ahkan edited in a real response, so I will take this because I think that some kind of controlled randomness might be a good thing to implement here.Anyways, like I was saying in a ring earlier, Imperian PvP has long been a "linear" game, but there is nothing that mechanically requires this to be a linear game. Randomness in games can be good, so long as it's under partial control by the player…When is the next classlead round starting, anyways? Probably after they release that new area? I have a couple ideas I would like to get out as reports for the consideration of those who don't really follow the forums.Yeah, this is similar to some of the stuff that has been suggested regarding limb classes. Similar to what I'm suggesting with summoner, repairing monk (blunt) limb damage could cost HP as they don't do a ton of physical damage lately if they are a…I'm trying to start a solo law practice, so far with mixed results. Might have found my first paying client but he's been kind of flaky, so he may or may not call me tomorrow. I have not been at it very long or hard yet though, so I try to look at…This is a surprising development.I was thinking about summoner the other day.In some ways, it's a good class and popular class because it has a lot of decisions you can do that actually make a difference. Going back to what I was saying about a less popular c…Hopefully more (mine included) will come in at the end.
I'm pretty sure that someone had sex with a wyvern at some point, or maybe the wyvern was bribed. Good thing for them that Anathema's dead :O
It seems like some abilities, like quench skin and focus cadmus, aren't in garrynbot, I think that should change.
I was going to be like, OMG BLOOD OF THE WYVERN but back to the drawing board I guess.
I may try to draw the renegade from the kinsarmar newbie quest, but the story part is harder to come up with due to the simplistic background of the ne…Ok so, lore question, just how does someone get the power to turn into a wyvern to begin with? Do they just read a book or are they part of the blood of the wyvern clan or has it never been clarified?
I learned how to draw at one point, but I'm not sure what to draw that would be interesting and relates to new players.
Similarly, what to write? I guess I could make a newbie and stumble around, but any ideas would be welcome.
I've heard rumor that a tendency towards vindictive comments has been keeping certain players from posting on the forums.
That said, I thought about my latest idea a bit more today and think that I have improved upon it significantly. On…I had a new idea that could be even easier to implement: give afflictions minor on-hit effects. This way, even if I'm using afflictions as fodder to push back healing balances and to make my opponent use their tree and purge, the afflic…(Quote) This is the problem, by neglecting one stat since it now does nothing, you can make super-smithed weapons like never before. No one seems concerned about to-hit anymore.
Actually removing to-hit entirely, if no one w…
