    I can't log in to check right now, but with the Incantation classlead to reduce the EQ time, what did it get changed to?

    - With sharp, crackling tones, Kyrra tells you, "The ladies must love you immensely."
    - (Eleusian Ranger Techs): Savira says, "Most of the hard stuff seem to have this built in code like: If adventurer_hitting_me = "Sarathai" then send("terminate and selfdestruct")."
    - Makarios says, "Serve well and perish."
    - Xaden says, "Xaden confirmed scrub 2017."



  • AB file shows 4.05 EQ




    Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.
  • It's not really a noticeable difference from what it used to be, from what I saw (latency included), so to me, it wasn't that really impactful of a change at all. I'm hoping Makarios will take another look at it
  • It was 4.25 before, so that's about a 5% reduction. It isn't a huge difference but it's significant enough to matter.
  • edited January 2016
    Well, 4.05 seconds is a shift of 0.2s, since I think it used to be 4.25s EQ. With a diadem, that's down from 3.5-3.6s to about 3.4s or so. It's an improvement, albeit a minor one.

    EDIT: And Sena beats me to the punch.

    It's definitely a lot better. And someone suggested incantation usable with arms broken. That make it a viable option. 
  • If you're fighting UW scorpions with anything but Incantation, idk what you're doing.

  • @Atalkez Prioritising arms over legs (unless prone) and using gut? Works if there's only one or two of them in the room.
  • edited January 2016
    Man all the times I've bashed them, I think there have been only two in the room like twice. I can't seem to ever get less than four of them at a time.

    Edit: Yes, I've tried moving rooms repeatedly to split them up. Always seem to congregate back up nearly instantly though.

  • They do seem to have gotten worse at clumping. I rarely bother with the Underworld any more, and the rare times I do go there I just skip the scorpions. Not worth the time spent trying to kill them when they're all grouped up together.
  • Just to verify before I buy: I still have my adder. So if I collar it, then it gets killed, when i resummon snake, I get my adder back, right?
    The Truths hurt. Always.
  • yes     

  • Does anyone have a Monk Limb Counter outside of the one SVO has?
    Kind of like the one Nemutaur created would be nice, but honestly will take anything that works. Would even be willing to pay a small amount recently had two people asking if there was anything out there, and I wouldn't mind grabbing one myself, but I don't use SVO (Wunder master race) so just wondering!

    Praxides was in the midst of making one, but they vanished. So if I could get in contact with her, that'd please me too!

    Something has definitely changed. The mid to high-90 level names are pretty long, and they never used to show the full name. It would be cut off.

    @Tecton, I'm curious. Are there (hopefully soon) plans to continue to expand artefact powers to include some of the more "ability" powers, like eagle/atavian wings, whatever the elem. resistance power is called, earrings of sinope, explorer's tome, and so on? I'm trying to plan long-term item places for various powers that make sense roleplay-wise and just noticed some missing, both from normal artefacts and Shop of Wonders ones.

    Is there a way to request in a less annoying way which we'd like to have included, maybe? Or is it just a continuing project to have all of them, more or less, in time? Obviously this wouldn't apply to some things, like the box of chocolates or reincarnation dagger.

    Edit: Found that one in the list!

    Sorry to double post, but to clarify: A less annoying way for you guys, the admin team, not me/us/the players. I don't mind posting like this, I just expect it's kind of annoying to have to take time out of your busy schedule to answer randomly directed forum posts.

    Our original plans weren't to include artefact that were a function of the item itself, so things like wings, weapons etc. were not made into powers.
  • MelodieMelodie Port Saint Lucie, Florida
    edited January 2016
    What items count as "a function of the item itself"?

    I mean, I compare wings to things like wormholes, leap, quickmount, lifevision, shroud... and so on, which all have their respective powers as options. It seems odd not to include wings (though I can understand the earrings, since that's a shared artefact).

    What? How do you think you get to clouds? Flap flap flap
  • MelodieMelodie Port Saint Lucie, Florida
    Yeah, and how do you shroud? By pulling a cloak around you ... except now it can be a ring. How do you go through a wormhole with the artefact? You probe it with a stick... except now it could be your boots (actually, that sounds pretty funny).

    I'm just saying at least on the surface, this seems no different. Now, if there's some weird tangled code that does make it different and overly difficult, I won't argue that, if perhaps be disappointed.

    I assumed that things like Earrings, Gems of Transmutation, and such required more complex code under the hood that made them less modular than simple stat increases or the like, and of course it's logical for weapons to be non-transferable since you have to wield them to use them. I'd understand code limitations, but having purely thematic restrictions for some items seems a little arbitrary. Don't see why earrings are inherently responsible for the power of Earrings, and couldn't be a wedding ring, for example.

    Is there a limit on how many rooms a player owned house can have, or is the only limitation your imagination and how much you can afford?
    What doesn't kill you gives you exp.

  • I think it's the latter, given how large Exos / Amunet's houses are/were.

  • Mycen is up to over thirty at the moment. I'm not sure that there's a limit.

    Is there a special way to disable queue alerts? I tried config showqueuealerts. This is what I'm seeing:

    Will no longer show when actions are added to your balance queues.

    [System]: Added BOP  SHEEP to your eqbal queue.

    Should these still be displaying?

    Yeah, it's annoying. I just gag it and echo my own thing. I don't think that there's a way to disable it server side though.
    I am retired and log into the forums maybe once every 2 months. It was a good 20 years, live your best lives, friends.
