Combat Logs

Rean

I'm guessing most people target via PT and then just attack. That's how I'd set people up. It'd be obnoxious to hope a noncombatant can pick something as easy to miss as (Party): Rean says, "TARGET Bal'met." out of 40 lines of text in under 3 seconds.

Rajan

@Rean, wasn't that the argument against party-targetting during the whole 'illusion partytells' debacle?

Jonathin

A prime example of ow.

Pretty much.

My axk didn't hurt nearly enough, for shame.

Jonathin

I love my shield.

eta: Actually, I don't love my shield. If it wanted my love, it would've absorbed both axk's and reflected the totem back onto Earionduil. My shield is my friend though. Yes, that.

Tanris

The double axk made me lol when it was from my pov, made me lol doubly so from yours b/c of insta concussion.

Jonathin

Your laughing hurts me deep.

Manifest

In the middle of our epic Shall-raid:

Preparing for a deadly strike, you draw yourself up into a regal pose.

(p) 8751h, 5797m, 38630e, 23593w ecdbk|-

Mizik's aura of weapons rebounding disappears.

Bowing his head in deep concentration, Mizik's eyes suddenly flick open, glazing over as he focuses 

intently on the empty space before him.

(p) 8751h, 5797m, 38630e, 23593w ecdbk|-

Mizik takes a long drag off his oaken pipe.

(p) 8751h, 5797m, 38630e, 23593w ecdbk|-

Bowing her head in deep concentration, Lianca's eyes suddenly flick open, glazing over as she 

focuses intently on the empty space before her.

(p) 8751h, 5797m, 38630e, 23593w ecdbk|-

Bowing her head in deep concentration, Askiva's eyes suddenly flick open, glazing over as she 

focuses intently on the empty space before her.

(p) 8751h, 5797m, 38630e, 23593w ecdbk|-

Bowing her head in deep concentration, Akia's eyes suddenly flick open, glazing over as she focuses 

intently on the empty space before her.

(p) 8751h, 5797m, 38630e, 23605w ecdbk|-

You have recovered balance on all limbs. (2.117s)

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38630e, 23578w excdbk|-

Windfallen Mosr Gothfraidh-Sar'vet says, "Yeah, keep spamming it."

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38630e, 23578w excdbk|-

Nemutaur takes a drink from a cedarwood vial.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38630e, 23578w excdbk|-

You suddenly perceive the vague outline of an aura of rebounding around Sohl.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38630e, 23578w excdbk|-

Seragorn takes a drink from a cedarwood vial.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38630e, 23578w excdbk|-

Tagg appears, a look of love in his eyes.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23548w excdbk|-

Mosr leaves to the east.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23548w excdbk|-

The light grows more intense, and with a gesture of utter submission to the Dragon within, Lothiac 

throws his arms wide and his head back as he screams, "Aaashhaaaaaaxxeeeeiiiiii!"

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23548w excdbk|-

In a single, sinuous motion, you manoeuvre your imposing form to encircle Rexak's feet, fixing him 

with a penetrating gaze as your tremendous jaws open wide.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23560w excdbk|-

You suddenly perceive the vague outline of an aura of rebounding around Rexak.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23560w excdbk|-

Rexak's aura of weapons rebounding disappears.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23560w excdbk|-

Rexak takes a long drag off his pipe.

(p) 8751h, 5659m, 38620e, 23560w excdbk|-

You suddenly perceive the vague outline of an aura of rebounding around Mizik.

(p) 8751h, 5524m, 38640e, 23545w excdbk|-

As a distant, triumphant roar is heard, the green light coalesces about Lothiac. His body begins to 

change, and deform. His head flattens, as his neck lengthens. His body grows dramatically as wings 

sprout from his back, and a massive tail quickly extrudes from what are now his hindquarters.

(p) 8751h, 5524m, 38640e, 23545w excdbk|-

Striking downward, you sink your teeth into the flesh of Rexak's chest, feeling bones crack between 

your jaws. As you jerk backward, Rexak's neck stretches and splits apart as you tear the head away 

and crunch down upon the skull, swallowing it in a satisfying gulp.

You have slain Rexak.

Antidas

Best part of that log is Rexak trying to shield

Jonathin

I got spammed so hard by attacks when that happened that my Mudlet froze for a second or two before I was able to even try and get out (in reference to my say).

Achilles

Ending was disappointing, I was expecting Mosr's grace to wear off as he said something.

Jarrod

Certain members of Eleusis have admitted to triggering certain things, and it's obvious that other, separate members trigger other things.

All groups automate to some degree or another, but the more you automate, the more open you are to having that exploited. The only stupid thing I've seen so far was that Achilles -issued- when party calls were illusioned, to disallow it. If you're going to automate that shit, you should have to deal with the consequences of the enemy finding out what you do, and calling in the admin is just silly.

I think one of the best parts of the core Ashtan group is that we either trigger nothing or trigger 1-2 attacks in specific situations, depending on the person. This let's us be extremely flexible, and change how we're attacking regularly.

I think one of the best parts of the core Ashtan group is that we earring in all situations, to the same person. This let's us bypass everything and escape virtually everything.

My issue wasn't that they illusioned a party call but that they illusioned numerous ones in the hopes of catching 2-3 people who were auto-targeting (on their own volition).

Also fixed the last paragraph for you.

Sohl

The bitter is strong in this one.

Tvistor

I haven't automated anything. I've even been too lazy to announce when I snipe even though it is required by the House. Also I don't understand, what is wrong with illusioning  numerous party calls? That actually sounds like a smart use of illusions to me.

Rom

I posted it and then I realized what it was 2 seconds later.

Tvistor

Dear god what the hell is your display picture and how do I kill it weofiajwoefij

Mishgul

i automate everything depending on what tvistor says in a voice chat.

I think the admin ruled that party chat wasn't necessarily IC by nature. Perhaps it has to do with the "(Party):" part, it's not like illusioning other text that could appear. Who knows?!

Tvistor

I mainly swear at Tanris and it makes him do weird emotes not at all suitable for the public.

If party chat was IC by nature our A-team party chat would all be shrubs right now.  But yeah, obviously illusioning (party) makes no sense, just like using emotes in combat.  Still funny it got people though!

Manifest

I'm pretty sure Jhui controls everything, considering their entire group basically laid down and died as soon as we killed Jhui the other night. 

Dunn

Gooooooood goooooooooood let the hate flow through you.

But, if you want a Mosr funny: he dropped retard on us while we cleared a 10 stack of guards.

It came up as the last guard went down.

Tanris

Sorry, but illusioning target gwawr and sothantos plus all the monks enf/multislashing her through burst was one of the absolute most hilarious memories of group combat I have in Achaea.

Dunn

conjure illusion (Party): Darroth says, "Target Gwawr."

Many deaths. Adorbs.

Tvistor

I miss raiding with Tanris so much, even if I was new to combat when I did so. He used to keep me alive with tarot and now he kills me with it. Oh, the irony.

Also I will never be able to tell who is auto-targetting things, so I am going under deep cover as an Eleusian monk. I will convince you guys to buy me veils (seriously, who does that?) and then switch to Mhaldor. I will find out the truth and take your credits. It is the perfect plan.

Tanris

Does anyone have that log?

Dunn

Props to Tanris for trolling through old Quotes 2.0 faster than me:
