SQUINTLOCKS
Caelan
Mia, likely it was the ACC that did this by showing hard proof of the insane "potential" for abuse. (including showing it taking over 20 seconds to get EQ back if it got hypno'd [and all of our bitching tongue.gif ] )


Also, one thing I noticed is this (in regards to 'other things we broke'):

If you try to COMPOSE without having the FEAR affliction :"You have not lost your composure."
Eluned
So this is probably just fallout from the whole rewriting of older class skills like they said they were doing in that announce post a few posts back.

Your calm demeanor and keen powers of reasoning are not welcome here.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled lulz.

I'll pay 500 credits for an arti that makes squint, glance, and observe all happen without balance or eq regardless of race.


Not even funny, please don't encourage the idiocy.

Squint took up eq for a while. It doesn't any more. Of course this was all
according to plan, since now you will all be so relieved, and pleased, you will
be too busy praising us to notice any other bad things for a while. Enjoy!

wow that was fast


And Yay for the sanity

wtf, I can't believe they removed the EQ cost of squint.

on second thought, pls change this, I can't find anyone now that squint takes longer than goign to the bathroom does.

Don't give them any ideas like that! That's like giving them an idea to put out an artifact to make monks get + 50% accuracy with Axekick! sad.gif

if that was me, i definitely would not be here right now, k?

This is a testament to the power of rants.

idea from now on the only things that should be changed are things that are posted in the Inferno

Thank you, your idea has been submitted.

Now please make farsight and other sensing abilities not take mana and eq to tell me a person cannot be sensed when I typo a name. sad.gif

Farsight takes both, other sense abilities don't take either.

This post is irrelevant to the greater thread and unlikely to affect change, given that it's the Rants section. I'd say try the Ideas section, but I don't think your request holds merit - if you don't want to waste your EQ and mana, just do QW PERSON to see if they're logged in before you try to farsee them. This does not bypass gems or chameleon, but them's the breaks.

Please read bolded. And I am ranting about it damnit, didn't you see the sad face? I hate when I typo a name while trying to do things quickly and it still takes eq and mana. Why does it take EQ and mana to farsee someone that isn't in the realms/a name that doesn't exist because it's a typo? Is farsight-spammage some sort of issue that caused it to require that?

It takes eq and mana because it's a popular way of getting around a gem in the open pk areas. If it didn't cost then people could make huge lists of people they want to check on and run through them in 0 time.

Finest kitten fur has been used to create this lustrous cape, a variety
of colours that trim the rich purple velvet that falls to the small of
the back. The tiny little collars have been used as medallions, the
little leather strips complete with shiny tags bearing the names of the
deceased. Embroidered into the hem is a coiled serpent of scarlet silk.
It has 94 months of usefulness left.
It weighs about 1 pounds and 8 ounce(s).
It won't protect you much from the cold.
It bears the distinctive mark of Katia.

I think the change is fine, personally. Just change the fact it stacks EQ, as that's abusable.
Krypton
This is the best change ever. I never squint because I'm not used to it; I always glance. And now everyone has to suffer EQ loss with me when they squint instead of glance. This is fantastic.

I'm pretty sure they reversed this. Squinting is no longer taking eq for me at least.
