What Happened To You Today?

Makaela

After it gets fixed sure. Honestly shocked it was marked High priority. So it must havepotentials for abuse beyond what I thought.

Oceana

I started my first rampage.

Rekhyr

Took my first protege hunting

Vanceroth

Joined my first hunting party and bought my first journal.

Aereidhna

Hunted a bit, tried to keep up with the election news, submitted most of an outfit for the BluFest ball

Brean

Practicing impale/dsb setup, no actual dsb involved...promises me he won't die... @Rohai

Rohai says in a low voice, "Go nuts!"

...
...
...

Rohai dies, features contorted from the poison delivered by Oathsworn Brean.

wtf!


Then promptly got kilt by @Atalkez, feeling accomplished that I made it on a bounty board

Cynlael

Found out today, that artifact knuckles don't increase punch damage at all for monks while hunting... Not sure if intended or not, but seems like a massive oversight (or bug, idk) - it doesn't exactly /say/ it's only effective versus players.

@Tecton / @Makarios / @Sarapis pls?

Ruth

A sudden change in the winds overhead forces the blanket of black smog towards the ground. Your vision dims as the soupy miasma enters your body in vast quantities. Every nerve in your body twinges in unison as your organs fail and you slump to the ground, a lifeless husk.

Ruth has been overcome by the thick, morbidly rank smog that lingers over the isle of Umbrin.

Welp. Talking to @Taraus about the state of Umbrin.. walking around and buying some (probably) infected squid from the tavern there and my lungs just decided to up and quit on me.

Vanceroth

I attained the Bronze Belt in Tekura.

Sounds like a bug. Knuckles were working fine against denizens up to at least a few months ago.

Yea, Knuckles are suppose to give a straight 15/25/35% boost to damage to punches, regardless of the target (that is, before armor, defs, etc). It's suppose to be like getting an artefact weapon...except monks used punches instead of pointy/blunt metal/wood/stone

Side note: What the f- forums, Armor, armor, and Armour is correct spelling but armour isn't? Why does capitalization matter for the UK spelling of this particular word?

Falcon, damage was unchanged between general punches and knuckle punches (uppercut ofc). Even tried testing on a ton of different mobs, was the same damage across the board. Damage vs players is still the same as it's always been, though. Guessing something got messed up with changes.

Razzlo

Let the conditions around Razzlo steer his RP rather than continuing to force something that was just not as true as it was before  

In other words. Razzlo is now a serpent. 

I also joined the Virtuosi. I did that a while back, but I was having too much fun writing poetry to get on the forums to say anything about it. 

I am am very happy about both. 

EDIT: Well damn. Without being a blademaster, I now need a new avatar. Bleh

Tahquil

@razllo could be a sword you pilfered from a blademaster in a show of just how much more sneakier you are then they are now.

I actually do have a cool idea planned for my sword...hopefully it pans out.

Katzchen

@Razzlo welcome to the dark side. We have phase *and* cookies.

Jadys

messed up royally in raid defense. felt bad about it. then got humiliated. 

Rohai

Not sure what happened, but whatever it was, I can pretty much guarantee that: a) I've done much, much worse, and b) everyone else will have forgotten about it by tomorrow, anyway.

Saeva

Have definitely caused some major death and destruction by making silly mistakes in raids. Blocking is a bitch 
Just have to live and learn and move on! Nobody else will hold a grudge, just like Rohai said, cause they'll forget.

I've beckoned people out of safety and into gravehands!

Managed to get the whole Targ defense team wiped by forgetting to block and getting beckoned out with them all following.  

So don't stress it!

Tristitia

So I was out bashing and my boar faded. Went to go to Vinci, when suddenly just outside of Delos:

Lukan stops you from moving that way.

Lukan raises his hand in greeting to you and says "Hi!"

You glare angrily at Lukan.

You suddenly perceive the vague outline of an aura of rebounding around Lukan.
Lukan lays out a collection of inks.
Lukan gathers his inks together in one hand.
 
Lukan 'Lucky' Vastel, the Professional says, "Magical Mystery Lukan."

Raising his hand to his mouth, Lukan begins to gently blow the inks into the
air.
The ink momentarily swirls above your left arm and then begins to adhere.
 
Lukan 'Lucky' Vastel, the Professional exclaims,
"WoooOOOOoOoOOoOOooOoOoOOOOOOO!!"

Lukan frowns in concentration, and the ink begins to shape itself into a boar.
As the boar tattoo's shape is codified on your left arm and the last of the ink
leaves the air, Lukan pauses for a moment, an admiring look on his face.

You say, "HOW DID YOU KNOW."

Lukan throws some imaginary fairy dust in the air and exclaims a loud, "POOF!"
 
Lukan 'Lucky' Vastel, the Professional says, "Duanathar."

I've almost never had the inspiration or motivation to use the ship arena, but that recently changed. I had genuine fun teaching @Kitiara some practical sailing skills in the ship arena!

Not certain what you're referring to, and I hope it wasn't because of me that you felt humiliated! As the others have said, whatever you did, I can pretty much guarantee I've done something similar before haha. We all make mistakes - even stupid ones like not blocking or not enemying someone you meant to, etc. It happens. So long as you look at what the problem was and make an effort to prevent it from happening again, no one can (rightfully) fault you. Or at least, I won't, and no one else's opinions matter so you're good

Tharvis

whatever you did, it can't be as bad as following a raid group into an enemy city and forgetting to put up metawake/softfocus/mass beforehand

Mishgul

Definitely can't be as bad as Scotland voting no on independence from England either. You are smarter than millions of people. MILLIONS.
