Ankyrean Anguish - Aetolia-based RAGE

Moirean

The pink.

Toz

People shouting insults at other characters/Gods/whatever. Where are they? Their haven/Nirvana/their city. When do they leave? Neeeeever. There's a few of these on each side, and I keep wishing for more and more creative punishments for them, but it never happens.

Ingram

Yeah, everyone's a tough guy in the face of someone that can demolish them with a snap. Stay fierce, people. Fight the powah.

Nola

It's embarrassing to listen to. And really annoyingly distracting from something that should be a lot more worrisome than they're acting like. 

Also. Modern Slang. Make it stahp.

Xavin

People claiming that hypnosis isn't an attack until the snap (lolwut) You got found hypnotizing someone. You're gonna get attacked.

Seir

I don't really see how you could argue otherwise. I'm implanting suggestions in you that will afflict you. It's pretty clearly aggressive. 

Rule to live by: If you wouldn't be able to do it behind grace to someone, it's aggressive and they can probably kill you for it.

Toz

Did you know that lycans mutating is technically an aggressive action according to old issue rulings? It's 'provoking' or something, so if a lycan mutates in front of you, you can go ham. I'd also include stuff like mindlock in that - yeah, pretty much anything you can do to someone else (with a few obvious exceptions) that takes bal or EQ is probably an 'attack'.

I don't know what in this system can't handle spam, but I instantly lag so hard the moment I enter a room with a team fight in it, that the game becomes unplayable.

I know it is client side because even typing into the command line lags.

I feel your pain @Irruel. I've been having major latency issues through TW. Not to the extent that you've been suffering but enough that it makes 1v1 exceedingly difficult. It seems like the system is wading through treacle. I've really noticed it because before I went away it ran as smooth as silk! Do you know what it is specifically that was added that's causing it?

Riluo

A new parry set up got added last update, otherwise very little was changed. But yes it is increasingly harder to pk now and this makes it hard for me to get involved in more indepth combat. I hope @Kaeus can return and fix the issue or someone else.

Moirean

Hehe. Treacle. Bene, you're so British.

Aishia

Oh

Moirean

Your aura of weapons rebounding disappears.

Your rebounding defence has been stripped.

You lunge forward and slam the blade of a massive halberd into Conner, skewering him upon the ground with the powerful strike.

You use Deathlore Soulthirst Strike on Conner.

A jolt of raw energy travels through your weapon as it gorges itself on Conner's soul.

Conner uses Entanglement Failure.

Conner's bound body can be entangled no further. The entanglement fails to take hold.

Conner tumbles out to the north.

Ishin

...wtf is that?

Toz

An unintended effect of the writhestack change, it seems - basically, if you're webbed or whatever, you can't be further entangled. Which means, if you're webbed and tumble, you can just stay webbed forever and be immune to impale stopping you from tumbling away.

Ishin

That's so dumb. I'd just wait to get webbed then tumble, like it looks like Connor did. Good use of mechanical circumvention, even if it is a bit goofy on the backend. Hopefully it'll get 'fixed' sometime soon.

Moirean

I doubt he planned it like that. He was tfixed. That being said, I consciously avoid tumbling in certain situations for fear of opening myself up to impales - I feel a bit stupid for overthinking play like that and gimping myself.

Ishin

Rage that if someone syncs me in Xaanhal then goes down first, it messes it up and makes an instance for them, instead of making mine and sending them to it. That's really silly, and it's utterly annoying because I have to wait 2 hours to do it again. Is there any way we could get a RESET <instance> if we haven't killed anything in it, so we can like...you know. Get into the same one in case someone makes the mistake of like, going first? HNNNNGH!!!!!

Toz

You can synch to them and go down still, I believe. But not 100%!

Ishin

Can't. Faerah and I just tried, and it sent us to different instances

Haven

Oi... Maybe the shelves with the stuff I want are hidden from me. I mean it is possible as I'm enemied to most if not nearly every Lifer organization there is. Maybe I'm blind or the good shops got moved around a bit. Maybe the city's just gotten a lot smaller since I was last actively in it. Maybe it's all in a different city now. Maybe the people with the class/skills just don't own or have access to shops there anymore. I don't know but it's frustrating to see a city understocked with combat stuff whenever I check. Combat is more than just herbs and armor. On the flip side... I at least know where to go if I want wedding dresses or sandals or home decorations.

You're home to one of the mercantile guilds man! Don't you guys have a treaty with them or something to make stuff for the city shop or something? You should be overflowing with this stuff! :-w

skewer/other impales should just stop tumble on hit, to get around this

^I'm like the Oleis Whisperer.

Ishin

Well, since you're paying attention, @Oleis, maybe you could explain how it works? She synced me, went down, I went down synced to nobody. Different instances. How does it even work? I hear like 50 different things, and honestly, it's really quite frustrating to tell you the truth. I had a similar issue with someone else I tried to take in the other day, except I did go down first(as far as I know) and they did sync me.

Btw @Oleis, you have purrrrdy eyes.

Minarael

The shop situation is silly. 

Getting a shop should not be a nearly impossible feat.

I've said this before. Haven's rant is proof that we do not have too many shops. And half the shops we have are selling the same damn designs.

Haven

I wish they'd like... revamp the refugee camp to be the "new Delos" and instead of like Kelende, the clan guy, artifact shop guy, etc they instead moved in Seasone, the other swamp hag, and various other 'forgotten' NPCs to sell combat basics at prices above standard but also at a poorer quality (not too expensive and not too poor in quality) so that players could still find a way to get what they need.

-shrug- Ah, well. I'll just deal with it til a friend logs in or something.

@Ishin, I think the problem was that you were not sync'd to anyone. If you are not synchronized, then the instance will set to you upon entry. Because she went down first, even though shew as synchronized to you, it created the instance for her (as she was the one who entered first). What you needed to do was synchronize her, then you'd have entered her instance.

I guess the thing that sucks is it's hard to imagine a balanced system for policing shops actually being properly stocked.

Minarael

Why the heck would we need to police shops? I really think we need a system similar to housing. Some shops will suck, some will be awesome. People won't lose their investment in acquiring them. Crafters will have the ability to make better use of their skillsets. People have more options. Yes, some items will have a lesser value. I don't really think the investment balances out very quickly -now-, though, so I don't really think it matters as much as people claim. It allows shops to be more focused as well, instead of -needing- to have a good balance of function and form, you can have a true tailor's shop or a sweet shop without it hurting access to essentials like curing supplies/weaponry. I honestly do not agree with a single one of the arguments to restrict the number of shops and I can see a whole lot of arguments to expand them.
