Has anyone else had a hard time mastering a weapon proficiency? I have hunted quite a bit since learning and still practicing. Someone told me it's entirely random but usually doesn't take too long. I could just be  very unlucky.

I accidentally learned maces so I'm at still practicing at two weapons, do I have to learn that one first before I can learn my morning stars? This is what it looks for me:

You are proficient in the following weapon classes:

Shortsword

Flail

Mace (still practicing).

Morningstar (still practicing).

Shoot yourself an issue me on the mace proficiency explaining the mace/morningstar mixup. Should be able to get your 100 lessons back.

Secondly as you seem to have solved, proficiencies are mastered with ten connects of the default weapon commands. Class attacks don't appear to have been well implemented into the proficiency system if at all.

@Iosefka Were you using whirl/doublewhirl before? Could be bugged and they don't count for learning the proficiency.

Yup, I was using doublewhirl. And I will do that Mindshell, thanks for the responses, glad to have solve another mystery bugging me.

edit:Actually for hunting I have been using kill which doublewhirls for me, so that may have been a misunderstanding when I answered you. So that may have caused issue for me too.

Is it possible to use multiple artefact upgrade tokens (from the cart) to upgrade a single artefact? IIRC, they are automatically consumed, so it should be possible. Just want confirmation before purchasing.

Omor

@Taarkos
Yes, it's possible.

Taarkos

Thanks!

@Sena, I'm sure this has been asked before, but do you have the horkval resistance numbers?

Sena

Pretty sure horkval resistances are still 10%.

Was there a change to serpents' endurance rates I did not notice mentioned? Since Saturday, I noticed I'm losing about 3k endurance every half an hour (with fitness to 52%) and in two hours I can drop from 18k to 5k... I don't remember ever using endurance that quickly and I bash quite a bit.

Cooper

I never lost endurance in serpent until the day they released the level 2 endurance artefact.

My endurance is dropping -slightly- quicker than before. My willpower has tanked, can barely bash two hours straight anymore. Have a lvl 1 ring of endurance, no circlet/amulet or whatever it is.

That was a bug with endurance regen that got fixed.

I haven't noticed a great deal of difference in endurance drain recently, but it might just be small enough that I don't notice through the regen. Not noticing any difference in WP either, unless I'm either in LHG (varies depending on rooms, bleed etc. anyway) or take the EQ Gem out for a spin.

Ahmet

I've been taking a major hit to endurance, but I just chalked it up to the drain from having to re-mount every time I got dismounted. *shrug*

Does that even consume endurance? I've never noticed.

Garrote and natural endurance regen are both the same as they've always been for me. Have you upgraded your dex or whip recently? Garrote's endurance cost is based on the whip's damage stat (damage/5, rounded down), so a better whip will drain more endurance per hit and hit more often. It shouldn't make that huge a difference though.

Yeah. At least vault does. Wanna say 100 points iirc?

50 endurance for vaulting.

Anyone ever been forced to insta-embrace death? Not sure if it's random or if something caused it, but it's kinda off-putting. Is there something someone can do to your corpse to make this happen?

Did you rip? Only thing I know of is when you connect dead you auto embrace

Nope. No rip. Just dead then suddenly going through embrace sequence.

Krypton

Death beckons.

Gripped by the cold embrace of death, you succumb to the darkness...

Looks like you insta-embrace now when you run out of mana?

I had mana >.>

But either way that's... just... what? Why u.u

I think there's a devotion affliction that can force it?

Otherwise the only other thing I can think of is when you reconnect as a soul.

I DC'd as a soul recently during a raid and when I logged back in I was still a soul waiting to embrace

Not for quite a while now.

@Ahmet What were you doing as a soul? I can't remember if the game kills your connection or forces praying if you don't enter any commands for a certain period of time as a soul.

It was relatively immediate. Let me grab the logs...

ETA: Damn, Jhui rekt my mana. Weird. @Krypton was right

So why was this changed @Nicola @Makarios? And if it's going to stay this way, can we get death's boon to slow your mana drain instead of currently being useless?

Ahmet

Or to just reduce experience loss on death? :>

Just some endurance questions I have.

Ox tattoo gives +1 endurance regen only when below 50% endurance?

Ring of Regen gives +1 endurance?

annnd how much does trans fitness give?

Ox tattoo is +5 end every 10 seconds, I think, regardless of endurance of level?

Sena

Trans fitness doubles your natural regen (from 10 endurance every 4 seconds to 20 endurance every 4 seconds while awake, and from 10+MaxEnd/750 every 4 seconds to 20+MaxEnd/375 every 4 seconds while sleeping). Below trans, fitness gives a chance for each tick to be doubled, based on lessons spent. So those 15 lessons in fitness that some houses/people still recommend to newbies for some reason will give about a 2% chance to double each regen tick.

Ring of Endurance also doubles natural regen, stacking additively with fitness (with both, you'll have 3x natural regen). Not sure about level 2 endurance regen.

Ox tattoo is a flat 6 endurance every 10 seconds, not affected by anything else.

Anyone know the best way to be Pali/Priest while still keeping ties to Nature? 

Targ is not for me,  but Damnation, I wanna show my Devotion.
