In that case... TYPO!

Your aura of weapons rebounding disappears.

Raising your arms skyward, you tilt your head back and unleash the majesty of Trisagia, a beam of silvery radiance streaking up from your location.

Abruptly, a shadow falls over you. Staring up, you have mere horrified moments to comprehend the magnitude of your doom before the titanic piece of meteorite impacts your location in a cataclysm of destruction.

I have no fucking idea

Any chance we could get some rough numbers for the bonus @Makarios, @Nicola? How much more is four shards than one? Or two?

Makarios

It is exponentially better the more splinters you have. A two splinter submit is magnitudes better than a one splinter one, and 3 is magnitudes better than two.

Looks like the relinquish message isn't firing for some orders, but if you lose avatar, it worked and you got credit. Will fix that and the power show typo up now!

Mog's kind of a bastard for that, since it only has one entrance. Can just piety/GH the 3-4 entry rooms and laugh.

Ironically, we had a very civilised Moghedu splinter claim a couple of hours ago. I'm not even sure if anybody died!

Klendathu

And I bloody forgot dirge clears GH. /fail

Avatar making you remove everything is fine if you aren't blademaster who has to wear positioned scabbard?

Makarios

Yeah, working on that one now.

I love the idea of this and see it as fun, but some people are kinda worried about how long this'll go on because it's going to get...pretty griefy.

Tahquil

Bugged that already. Awaiting reply.

  @Makarios for people in Orders with specific worn items that technically shouldn't perhaps be removable (e.g. scars and tattoos that use the clothing system), could we have those items added to any list of "items not removed" along with BM scabbards?

Dropping to one knee before a shattered shrine of he who is Lord of the wine-dark Sea, you bow your head in supplication to Neraeos.

Aethele nods her head at you.

Silent as the coming tide, the mantle of the Oceans deliquesces; your soul lightens, the burden of
the deep imbuing the master shrine with a surge of vitality.

4000h, 4000m, 18900e, 18900w cexdb-

Aethele says in a cool voice, "Thank you."

You bleed 36 health.

9h, 4000m, 18900e, 18900w cexdb-

Proficy tells you, "My bad."

I was lagging (Because of my connection not the event) and didn't manage to say something in time. Aethele saved me by half a second. That 9h after bleed though...

The moment I walked into Moghedu and saw a team setting up at the entrance and another setting up on third floor entrance I knew what I was getting into. It only made it more exciting. You don't HAVE to get the Avatar. If you feel your divine needs it get a team and work to backup your survivor or help setup an exit strat for them. Magi at the master shrine portal ready

Which begs the question if we're capable of having an event that doesn't ultimately boil down to which group of people can throw together the biggest gank squad.

And then after setting all the different Orders at each other's throats, you  tell them 'btw don't forget about the Tsol'teth that wants to destroy you all'.

This is not a sequence of events which logically culminates in every group deciding that they need to work together after spending two weeks basically encouraged to gank and grief each other. After this we're just going to be railroaded and reminded that yes there is an overarching plot because "OH GUESS WHAT. You need to be friends again and fight together otherwise we're all gonna die."

That's just bad storytelling.

If players want to conveniently forget the fact that you're not actually the (immediate) enemy for once, that's on them.

I'd say that's actually realism. People are selfish, and often that selfishness leads to very short sighted decisions. Maybe Sapience could do with a voice of reason!

I personally am a strong believer that choice (and consequence of choice) is what makes a good narrative. Players can make whatever choices they like during this period, but certain decisions may come back to haunt them later.

So I threw 500cr at the wheel and ended up with 6 ampules. These are a no refund, decaying, non use unless you have goblin minipet item? I love everything the new events have brought so far but this item actually seems to make the party favor look good...

Drop rate seems really high on an item most people cant even use

Just out of curiosity, if you had a 100% chance to win 1 million dollars or a 50% chance to win 100 million dollars, which would you pick?

Or even if the stakes were reversed, would you still flip for the rush of it?

Not enough spread. If it were 100% for 1 million or 50% for 1 billion. I'd take the 50%. 1 vs 100 mill I'd just take the 100% chance and make good investments. Hence Zulah's motto
