  • (Quote) I loved when people parried head only. No need to worry about them parrying legs/arms, and what more could you want? I suppose devour existing makes people want to use it but all you really need is a spleenrip for the bleeding k…
  • It was a new feature of limb damage classes just a few years ago. It is well post-lycan, and it is a major reason why I tell people that strength is important for lycans. Not important enough for someone to choose powerful/herculean over dexterous w…
  • [05:44:53.237] You take out a salve of restoration and quickly rub it on your torso. [05:44:57.238] You may apply another salve to yourself.

    Val seems correct with the resto salve thing. I did roughly half a dozen repeats and i…
  • @Aishia
    You were bloodborn? I feel like my character doesn't know his own allies.

  • I used to bother doing:
    (head|torso|left leg|right leg|left arm|right arm)
    But these days I'm a bit lazy for that.

    \d does still matter though, as it is still more efficient than .+

    Also, I suppose we should be trying…
  • I'm surprised no one has said this yet either, though I suppose it doesn't relate directly to the question:

    ^Your (.+) has taken (\d+)% damage\.$

    ^That's a better pattern. There is no need to escape the % character in regex - i…
  • Force used to have plenty of neat uses. Years ago.

    It was a useful way to stop death coming (tarot).
    You could force "summon fire" on a sent/druid in wyvern morph, which upset their incinerate.
    Force dive to prone people
    Fo…

  • Did you know...

    Bloodbath arena events were created because someone once opened a freeforall and forgot to start it. The people that entered got bored and started killing each other. When they died, they were sent out of the arena, just l…

    I think age/study/practice does affect the power of a mage, or in fact any class.

    Not in the raw amount of elemental power they are able t…

  • The newest is available.
  • People have been doing stuff like that with their mage characters since day one. If the lore doesn't match the reality, it is at least as much the fault of the lore(makers) as the players, since the lore came long after.
  • (Quote) His answer would not be particularly surprising, I'm sure. At least three of the original childer were prominent and old Achaean players at the time (I never did figure out who the 4th was). One of the houses was practically mad…
  • Esteem still exists?
    Well... huh. There you go.

    @xavin
    Regarding lore, I always made a point of learning as much of it as I could, ICly. I'd talk …
  • (Quote) If it makes you feel any better, some doctors have argued that regular periods for years and years is actually not natural, and in their own way can even be harmful.

    The argument is that ten thousand years ago, women …
  • Ping time has nothing to do with your client, and everything to do with you internet connection and how many hops between you and the Aetolian server (also how big or inefficient the hops are).

    The trigger parsing speed is separate issue,…
  • (Quote) Princes/principalities.

    While king evokes a greater sense of autonomy from the empire.

    To me, it has been the rank of 'king' that never seemed to fit into Bloodloch.
  • #1 is salt
    Did anyone not just assume that?
  • Send commands that will hopefully cause a secondary effect message to fire. I'm not sure how many of them still work, but things like attempting to concentrate will show confusion up.

    Figure out what the possible affs from the attack are…
  • (Quote) fixed.

    Edit: that might be a bit obscure.
    You tube crocodile roll and listen to the painfully dated John Williamson song that should be somewhere near the top.
  • Flurry used to hit parry, way back. It was changed in a liaison round.
  • (Quote) Para/Stupidity/Anorexia do more than just chew a salve balance.
    Until the anorexia is cured, they are paralysed and cannot tree, parry, shield or attack.

    Stupidity chews the focus, which means anorexia must be sa…

    I'm sorry, when I posted that thing about Carnifex, I was baiting you. I didn't think it'd get you frothing as much as it did t…

    Two years ago it was still possible to be a neutral balance lycan. That was one of the things I particularly liked about the class. Having faster balance …

    Amusingly, one of the other classes is the one that you say you hate the most, and is the most broken. Not that I'm disagreeing - it's just funny.<…

    in Names Comment by Irruel January 2014
  • I'd decided, before Aetolia was opened, that my next character name anywhere was going to start with an 'I'. I don't recall why.

    When Aetolia was here and I suddenly needed to come up with an 'I' name, I struggled. It was too soon, damnit…

  • Whatever decision is made, please make sure you consider the people who are less than level 80 and tend to be broke because mobs aren't dropping much gold yet.

  • Does anyone remember Zbniebniz's mutter-spam from the original Achaean hypno? He muttered whole paragraphs of Achaean history, each one beginning with potential hypno trigger words, every. single. round.

    I created a mutter-decoding scrip…
