Many random affliction abilities work that way. In fact, it's probably easier to list the exceptions. Unfortunately, I don't really know either list off the top of my head. If there's a specific one you're thinking about, I'm happy to chec…
"Smart loki" is liaison shorthand for the effect used in class abilities that give random afflictions. The "smart" refers to the fact that, of the pool of potential afflictions, only those which the target doesn't currently have will be applied. In …

No. The only issue was that 1p-only messages did not display the Combat Message portion to the Mentis user: You use Mentis Whisper (blah) on Target. That has no bearing on which abilities do or don't show 3p messages. It was entirely about…
I thought we changed that. If not, I will change that. When I first added Combat Messages to Mentis, it was clunky to do caster-only messages. Now it's just fine.

Since there's been significant silence on this topic, I wanted to update you all.
I knew going in that any liaison reports would have to wait until the multiclass revamp was pushed out before I could even -begin- to code them, just from a…
The difference is that most quests have inherent cooldowns in the form of item resets.
The problem we were attacking in that post was one of specific players machine-gunning through their alts one after another to eventually compile the r…

That is an excellent question. This was a big IRE priority for a while, and it's fallen to the wayside on an overall corporate level. That said, there wasn't a whole lot left to complete on the new intro, so you're likely to see some form …

Removing the Shapeshifting guilds was more to the goal of neutralizing the Shapeshifter class as part of the big revamp and making the class equally accessible to everyone.
The BB/Prae merger was an idea specific to vampire reva…

This is by no means an official decision, but I think the consensus is that factions were an "eyes bigger than our stomachs" initiative. In theory, they are absolutely incredible. Our game's structure is perfect for it, too. Content-wise, …
