2022-07-14 19:40 Skyrmion mm hmmm
2022-07-14 19:40 Salvation *innocent*
2022-07-14 16:35 Gaxator You hear the sound of metal tinkling as lonewolf's Claw shatters! i quit...
2022-07-14 16:31 Gaxator tul would be better than durr for war, right?
2022-07-14 16:25 Kali More with the smashy smashy.
2022-07-14 16:25 Kali I don't think Werredan is known for being the most careful of crafters.
2022-07-14 16:25 Gaxator omg thought dwarves were supposed to be good sharpeners, just dulled these claws twice already...
2022-07-14 16:22 Gaxator i agree with grendle, reduce sharpen lag but make it so weapons have to be resharpend periodicially
2022-07-14 16:16 Idle and you only have to fully sharpen a weapon once. so its not that big a deal. its not like you have to go back and sharpen it every few runs like you would have to in real life if its being blunted by damage
2022-07-14 16:15 Gaxator if we want to be realistic, how long to does it take to fletch arrows IRL? then fletch lag should be much longer
2022-07-14 16:14 Idle do you have an electric sharpener in game or a whetstone?
2022-07-14 16:14 Gaxator really? I can sharpen an entire kithen set on an electric sharpener in less than an hour lol
2022-07-14 16:12 Idle why is it a bit much? in real life I plan to spend an hour or more sharpening each of my knives
2022-07-14 16:11 Seyonne Noted on sharpen lag request
2022-07-14 16:11 Gaxator also suggestion for the list: decrease sharpen lag, over 30 minutes to max sharpen a weapon is a bit much
2022-07-14 16:11 Gaxator did they increase how many sharpens to max lord weapons? think i've done like 12 sharps on this thing
2022-07-14 16:09 Seyonne Oops.
2022-07-14 16:09 Seyonne Skills were certainly designed with the thought that lord fights should take longer than they do now. Stm were probably hit the hardest when it comes to that particular change in pace
2022-07-14 15:27 Redeye dang only m121 claw :(
2022-07-14 15:27 Redeye i'm at 2e
2022-07-14 15:26 Liniara can manifest
2022-07-14 15:26 Baudolino id argue that thematically, they dont need shield block since the claws are the weapons, so they shouldnt get it anyway
2022-07-14 15:26 Redeye beckon 800+ mage
2022-07-14 15:25 Kali But then you get into whether people expect their existing rippers to keep something like shield block as a grandfathered skill, which basically defeats the purpose since 75%+ of the rippers being created for the relevant future have probably already gotten it
2022-07-14 15:25 Jaeger c summon 800+ mag
2022-07-14 15:25 Redeye ok, need someone to manifest weapon please
2022-07-14 15:25 Yorimandil way cooler name tbh
2022-07-14 15:24 Martyr I don't disagree, they have juke :P
2022-07-14 15:24 Jaeger makes total sense too
2022-07-14 15:24 Jaeger id accept that kali
2022-07-14 15:24 Kali Rippers needed to lose a few more warrior things, especially things like shield block that let them tank as well as warriors
2022-07-14 15:23 Martyr rip melee dmg at lord is rather silly compared to other melee classes
2022-07-14 15:23 Redeye anyone willing to trade gems? I need a ruby i have emerald or amethyst to trade
2022-07-14 15:22 Seyonne Devastant implement a lot for us, and some has left lasting powercreep (ie, sors). I do agree we should attempt to make all classes equally playable as much as possible though, which may include some balancing acts. Since this is sure to bring up "ahh! no nerfs!" thoughts, the team in general seems accepting to introducing buffs/new skills as opposed to dropping all damage.
2022-07-14 15:22 Kali Sorcs had the trade-off of being evil, not getting all the cleric stuff (especially sanc), not have good AoE versus mages
2022-07-14 15:21 Yorimandil It's okay if you want to delete druid though
2022-07-14 15:21 Wolthu goal here is to make players wanting to play all classes, about only 20% of classes are being used very often.
2022-07-14 15:21 Kali Prestige/remort stuff was supposed to be *different* and maybe *more complicated* but not just *better*.
2022-07-14 15:20 Yorimandil I wouldn't say inferior because it would largely invalidate those classes, but at minimum parity should be achieved :P
2022-07-14 15:20 Martyr they're just not fun
2022-07-14 15:20 Martyr stm just can't be played at lord with any enjoyment unless they have solitude
2022-07-14 15:20 Seyonne Same with STM, and others being mentioned
2022-07-14 15:20 Seyonne One of the conversations I think we need to have as a team is to understand what the place of standard race/classes are compared to remort/rebuild/prc. Are they meant to be inferior? (that was the impression I always had). From that perspective, if there is something very wrong with certain classes such as BZK, let's take a look
2022-07-14 15:19 Jaeger its INCREDBILY boring
2022-07-14 15:19 Yorimandil bci gets literally nothing after lord 1
2022-07-14 15:19 Jaeger also, i ran an arc to 700+ under tnl tiering
2022-07-14 15:19 Mizuno archers only go 150 to get ebony fletch and that's about it
2022-07-14 15:19 Seyonne I'm here, just pulling comments out and organizing them
2022-07-14 15:18 Jaeger war here to embed
2022-07-14 15:18 Mizuno mage now has some decent things
2022-07-14 15:18 Jaeger hi
2022-07-14 15:18 Redeye i got mats to make lonewolf claw, seeing if there's a war to help with embed
2022-07-14 15:18 Mizuno psi run to 800 for a damage boost and get good things along the way
2022-07-14 15:17 Mizuno same w/ mage and their manifest skill
2022-07-14 15:17 Mizuno yea but that doesn't help them in the group
2022-07-14 15:17 Forseti they get gemcrafting
2022-07-14 15:17 Forseti they do
2022-07-14 15:17 Redeye not familiar with this as it's new but if i'm reading the helpfile right 800+ wars have better luck with embedding, right?
2022-07-14 15:17 Barf make mnd damage less trash
2022-07-14 15:17 Mizuno remort class < rip
2022-07-14 15:17 Martyr bzk dmg pales in comparison to rip
2022-07-14 15:17 Yorimandil +1 to what mizuno said
2022-07-14 15:17 Forseti :P
2022-07-14 15:17 Redeye anyone with a high level war care to embed some gems?
2022-07-14 15:17 Wolthu bzk is for damage, good for three rounds of tanking
2022-07-14 15:17 Barf no forseti, just no
2022-07-14 15:16 Martyr Mnd class definers like flood and hive mind are a bit of a joke, only used for trolling purposes
2022-07-14 15:16 Forseti id like ranger looked at again *blink*
2022-07-14 15:16 Mizuno would be nice if there was a reason to 800 every class instead of a select few like psi
2022-07-14 15:16 Martyr Stm are almost unplayable at lord
2022-07-14 15:16 Forseti :P
2022-07-14 15:16 Martyr examples... Bzk at lord need some love, Dev hinted at it when he was last here but he fell off again
2022-07-14 15:16 Forseti monk would do crit hit or something
2022-07-14 15:16 Forseti :D
2022-07-14 15:16 Forseti like please make all kob/gob/hob solo insatiate
2022-07-14 15:15 Wolthu yeah, need more ac for monk
2022-07-14 15:15 Seyonne I can't comment so much on changes to classes since I'm a coder, but if you'd like to expand more on the ask with examples, I can try to see if I can provide more thoughts or note it to the team
2022-07-14 15:15 Forseti more class specific mobprog/quest based gear would be nice, a la starmetals (albiet better).. could get different areas run more frequently and get more diverse lord groups
2022-07-14 15:14 Martyr if we mean longevity of VOD, then I got nothing
2022-07-14 15:14 Martyr I mean, if we're talking stuff for the longevity of the game, making classes more playable/not hated at lord would be nice
2022-07-14 15:13 Yorimandil silly bot
2022-07-14 15:13 Martyr Nod, must have
2022-07-14 15:13 Yorimandil I think Martyr misunderstood the ask - I did too until I reread it :P
2022-07-14 15:12 Martyr *shake*
2022-07-14 15:12 Seyonne Is that related to VOD?
2022-07-14 15:12 Martyr some existing class love would be nice
2022-07-14 15:12 Seyonne Now's a good time for anyone who remembers to mention if there are aspects to that which we should be mindful to remove/tweak for today's game or long term existence
2022-07-14 15:11 Seyonne On the note of VOD, that's a good reminder to see if we have the resources to bring it back into play in a more permanent capacity. We've made some improvements to capabilities, worth exploring again.
2022-07-14 15:08 Seyonne Is it actually still attached right now? There were efforts to attempt to bring it back, but Schema had quite a few client-side scripts we ran into issues with trying to replicate through game progs
2022-07-14 15:08 Barf (I know it's not)
2022-07-14 15:08 Chibiusa i can harmo in a few
2022-07-14 15:08 Barf is that the quest area still attached to sanctum for whatever reason?
2022-07-14 15:08 Redeye anyone able to do a couple harmonizes
2022-07-14 15:07 Seyonne village of decay, 2012 quest area
2022-07-14 15:07 Mizuho wht's VOD?
2022-07-14 15:07 Barf video on demand?
2022-07-14 15:07 Seyonne Idea I'm hashing out for myself to implement should time permit: some sort of "endless wave" solo mission for players. Kind of like endless wave with VOD, but solo and players can choose if they want to tank/hit/heal
2022-07-14 11:19 Seyonne If you feel you've gone ignored, feel free to mention here and that at least will leave a trail of evidence for him or me to refer to
2022-07-14 11:18 Seyonne Has everyone who's wanted to talk to Xiph been able to either directly or through notes/emails?
2022-07-14 11:07 Seyonne I'll be available for a bit if anyone wants to strike up a conversation. I'll be requesting conversations stay or be moved to public channels so that everyone can benefit from responses.
