Mildly Irritating: Aetolia's Pet Peeves
Lait
Ohio
What does Aetolia do that annoys you, but isn't enough to be a big deal? Here's some of mine.
(Thread rules: Keep it mild! No references to people [i.e. "MY PET PEEVE IS WHEN PERSON DOES THIS.] This is not a rage thread!)

- After I die, I can embed focus to get my vibes back, but I have to resummon my elementals one at a time.
- I have to outc herbs to eat them, or outc inks to ink tattoos. Not a problem for people who have played Aetolia since forever, but I came from Imperian where things auto-outrifted and frequently forget.
- Speaking of tattoos, Imperian had a thing where you could ink on 'any' body part instead of specifying the limb.
- Seeing what tattoos another person has is in Vision. It ought to be in Tattoos instead.
- You can make venom rags with Toxicology, but you can't make elixir/serum vials with Concoctions/Reanimation.
- When I search the help system for multiple words, it shows pages that don't have both words in them. So searching for "enemy artifact" for example will only show me a list of pages with "artifact" in them.
- Shops sell elixirs by X gold per 50 sips, the fluidcache refills by 100, and vials hold 50. So when you refill your fluidcache, you're actually paying twice the stated cost and refilling by twice the stated amount, and you can't refill your fluidcache by just 50 sips.
- Fluidcache's syntax to refill empty vials/rags is FLUIDCACHE FILL (liquid) (item). I keep doing FLUIDCACHE FILL (item) (liquid), because the structure makes more sense (you're FILLing an ITEM with LIQUID.)
- Inks and commodities are in the same cache group.

Additionally, I dislike how short vials seem to last, and the inconsistencies in how some displays show expiration times.
The inability to search a library like you can almost-every-other-type-of-list-in-aetolia.
LIBRARY CATALOG (keyword/title/author) would just.... omg.
You can't delay transfix spell but the description of delay USES transfix for example
H:4720 M:4975 E:100% W:100% B:100% XP:14% [sdb eb] H: /0/ M: /0/ab elemancy delay
Delay (Elemancy) Known: Yes
Affects: Players only
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage: CAST DELAY [spell details]
Elements: Spirit, Fire, Water
By delaying a spell, you can store the energy for it between 3 to 15
seconds. At the end of the timer, the energies will be released, casting
that spell without equilibrium or balance cost. You can use any ability
within Elemancy with this spell, with the exception of a few.
Take note however, any damage spell delayed in this fashion will have
the damage output reduced by 40%.
Example: CAST DELAY 10 TRANSFIX AT EZALOR.
This will attempt to transfix Ezalor after a 10 second delay.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
H:4720 M:4975 E:100% W:100% B:100% XP:14% [sdb eb] H: /0/ M: /0/
You may drink another health or mana elixir.
H:4720 M:4975 E:100% W:100% B:100% XP:14% [sdb eb] H: /0/ M: /0/
You may eat another bit of irid moss.
H:4720 M:4975 E:100% W:100% B:100% XP:14% [sdb eb] H: /0/ M: /0/cast delay 10 transfix at anyone
You cannot delay that spell.
H:4720 M:4975 E:100% W:100% B:100% XP:14% [sdb eb] H: /0/ M: /0/
Did you know if you do FLUIDCACHE FILL LIQUID It'll just go to the first empty vial/rag it finds? You don't have to specify an item, and unless your fluid cache is out of the liquid, no reason to top off half-filled vials/rags because you'll auto-fill them when they're out.
Edit: Used a tag which looked like HTML and was removed.
It's an easy fix, but until I put it into action, I'll sigh a soft curse every time it happens.
Also, leveling Teradrim golems takes FUCKING FOREVER! Why can't it be like Carnifex Warhounds and be able to be insta-leveled?
My fluidcache doing this with venoms I don't use anymore.
GRARRRG.
That emotes >4 lines crash the webclient while I'm being a procrastinator at work.
Most. Annoying. Problem. EVER.
Also: That Zaila's nicknames for people aren't acceptable to be used as targeting in emotes.
edit: SOME OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE DO THIS. It's kinda a minor thing all together but I def am like *SIDEEYE*
The massive wheel comes to a stop with a sickly flash of green light. It shudders for a moment before rewarding you with Skill Gain.
Your skill in Fletching has increased.
wtf wheel?!
Afflict you with EVERYTHING.
Summon a horrible sand monstrosity to murder you, anyone standing nearby, and the families of all of the above.
Switches your gender.
Edit: Oh, oh, kill you outright!
