  • Purity's kinda crap, actually. With trans constitution, resistance (in Chivalry) and algiz, I was hit by a 12 int purity for 13.1%. Arc seems to do 11.5% (not modified by strength) versus 94 cutting and algiz, and untargeted arc does about 4.7% versus the same defences. I remember purity hurting more, but I confess I hadn't gotten hit with it much after I transed constitution.

    Dazzle/targeted arc synchs up pretty well, you can burn through someone's mana pretty quick if they're using focus (about 2.7s with nimble/no diadem).

    I had better hopes for the hellsight change, but it's proven to be kinda useless after I looked into it for about an hour and a half. It's still about a 1/3 change, even if you stack 3 smoke cures (hellsight, slick, and usually disfiguration, on the arc after hellsight). It's not -exactly- 1/3, it depends on the order in which things are cured (random, sadly), but I wasn't damned a single time, and I didn't use tree or dagaz.

    Dazzle/arc is a really bad way to mana burn. There is nothing to make them sip health, because arc damage is reduced and easily covered by boar/moss. Instead, go for aconite/delphinium dsls, or curare/vernalius if they eat goldenseal instead of focusing.

  • Could someone clarify how svo + serverside is godmode? They just keep tripping over each other, from what I'm seeing. I still double sip occasionally, even though I've got svo's sip numbers at 1% on both. svo apparently isn't using fitness anymore, even though its enabled, but still uses restore properly.

    Hi Jacen, turnoff the curing for svo and you should be set to go.
  • I did? svo's not trying to do herb,salve/smoke curing, its just occasionally double sipping and not using fitness.

  • Sip to 0.

    Although, I think I had trouble when reckless in retardation. Shit just went bananas. I'm pretty sure Vadi got on that, though.

  • btw, its this kind of stuff I'm talking about:

    You may drink another health or mana elixir or tonic.

  • I don't know if this will fix the issue, but why not set them to 0%? You are able to set them to 0%.

    You could try using vignore also.

    You can turn server-side sipping health/mana off then do TF AFFS. Should cure with server-side and sip with Svo.
    That's what I do at least and it works fine, never double sips unless I hit a lag spike.

    What's that in game command that shows you an affliction explains what it does and then shows you what cures it?

    For the life of me I can never find it if Strata isn't around.

  • There's "affliction show <affliction>", but it doesn't really tell you what the affliction does.

    That's what I be lookin for, makes it alot easier to see what cures what!

    ...since when is EMBED RETARDATION a forceable command D:
    Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!"
    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

  • Since forever?
  • TharvisTharvis The Land of Beer and Chocolate!
    right, a better question then, what's the general cooldown on forced commands? basic EQ time?
    Aurora says, "Tharvis, why are you always breaking things?!"
    Artemis says, "You are so high maintenance, Tharvis, gosh."
    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

  • That would also probably depend on the flavor of force command that was used on you. Serpents would need to prep a hypno chain but once that's done would just go ahead and snap to start it. I hear Priest Force has a long recovery time. Four seconds or so maybe? Don't know how the other types compare, though.

    nvm

    Tecton says, "It's still your fault, Tharvis."

  • Yeah, or at least be aware whenever you inrift or outrift something or embed a vibe without you inputting a command, especially if you have a disc pre-spun. Don't have anything so fancy though, so you have to test it and see.

    yeah, wasn't pre-spun, was an arena fight (and I didn't auto-inrift the non-consumed crystal like a total newb) so just got forced to spin disc and embed retardation to proceed to get sniped to death by delph lupine. Oh well, learning!

    Yeah, that's what I figured happened to you. Did you lose insomnia before retardation hit? I usually find that there's a window to shield from being sniped out if you're fast enough.

    nah, lost it in the first snipe, was more of a "the hell just happened" moment where I didn't reply in time

  • Is Enmesh intended to stack with the web tattoos, making you writhe twice?

    With Enmesh being a timed ability, you could enmesh and touch web before enmesh goes through and have a free shot at a pseudo-prone target for the duration of the writhes.

    It's something I do to those who don't have buckawns

  • Right but everyone can get Enmesh, and everyone can get a Web tattoo.

    Not everyone is going to have a buckawns, or is inclined to get one for whatever reason.

    Just seems like they don't need to stack, imo.

    web + hangedman
    web + transfix

    The precedent for having different types of entanglement is already there

    Tharos, the Announcer of Delos shouts, "It's near the end of the egghunt and I still haven't figured out how to pronounce Clean-dat-hoo."
  • I think timed web bomb + hangedman might be a better example, since that's closer to the situation with enmesh + web where they're getting both entanglements in a single balance from the opponent.

    I really don't think it's a problem that they stack, though; not having buckawn's is a choice some people make and those who can't afford one have to accept that it puts them at a disadvantage during combat. It's also not like it opens you up to any game breaking tactics, even if it is a massive pain in the ass to fight against enmesh (though that's still the case even with buckawn's).
