  • Wouldn't it be possible to, when the rainbow milestone is rolled, check the player's level and then have it spawn in an appropriate area? Having lower levels locked out of part of a promotion or even dying over it probably isn't great for retention,…
  • Can we please make mounts auto-return to (city, Esterport if character doesn't have a city) stables on QQ or forced logout, similar to how minions/golems/etc. work? Bonus points if we do it without attaching it to an existing skill such as returning…
  • If this is true, it's baffling to me, given the number of volunteers who have broken NDA multiple times over the years (and are constantly up and down out of the Pools).
  • Can we adjust saymotes (eg: say (thing here) text here) to detect opening and closing quotations (essentially prefacing a say with more spoken words) and place the comma inside the quotation marks?

    Edit: As an example: say ("Hi") how are …
  • For healthy conflict to have a chance, RP such as "I need to defend this IC loved one" often has to be set aside. Speaking personally, making exceptions, mechanical or otherwise, doesn't lead to healthy conflict or benefit the game as a whole.
  • We've been complaining about the Primus OL mechanic for a while. Last I heard, they have no plans on changing it because of "lore" - an odd conceit, since it had to be retconned in to begin with.

    If we were going to get a new political sy…
  • (Quote) It may not have been your intention to imply otherwise, but mine was also a firsthand account. I was present for a good portion of the raids (where people getting ripped through wormholes from their own guildhall happened and definitely ups…
  • (Quote) There's more I could add as evidence of needing to start from the top, but it's not mine to share. Suffice it to say that most people haven't seen some of this in the way that a few of us have, and it's definitely not the first time it's b…
  • For the record - and please tell me if this information is incorrect, I am hearing it secondhand - when the producer of our game says something along the lines of "Aetolia is good at running off undesirables" in a public Discord server, perhaps chan…
  • I don't think anyone's bemoaning that conflict happened here, I think it comes down more to hypocrisy of it and inability of players to police themselves and consider the effects of their actions on the other players in the game. But that's just my …
  • (Quote) Hold up, maybe my understanding of the situation is incomplete, but that's not what happened from my perspective.

    Estella started trying to defile (I don't even know if she got a single shrine, based on how quickly the opposing…
  • (Quote) I don't think you're picking up what I'm putting down, and you're pushing some pretty ugly accusations/notions while attacking people. So I'm not really interested in having this discussion with you.
  • "Different, but equal" - the philosophy behind class balance, as I understand it - has not worked for Aetolia in some time (if ever). As an example, it didn't work for World of Warcraft, either, when Paladins and Shamans were unique to their respect…
  • (Quote) I think you'll find you're in an extreme minority regarding that.
  • The only problem with everyone having access to everything prior to the tether lockdown was that certain charaters/orgs were less flexible with their RP than others, which led to some people feeling left out (Spirit, mostly, as it is difficult to ju…
  • What better place to share an update than my own thread! Bump!

    So, hey, if it seems like I've been MIA, I'm not avoiding anyone. Promise. I know I have a few hanging RP obligations, and I fully intend to get around to them. Some of my abs…

  • Can we bring everyone up instead of nerfing bashing? I can say from experience that ~530dps at 4.05s is absolutely awful, and the "tank" isn't a worthwhile trade-off for the (lack of) speed.
  • (Quote) Wow, with the artifacts at play here, Ascendril should be doing way more damage in PvE, in my opinion.
  • No one has 'crucified' you, my dude.

    Edit: For the record, it takes all kinds to make a fascinating and compelling living world. Feel free to ignore those characters that don't fit your idea of the setting, but they're no less valid than …



  • I'd like this last one more if skin colour options had been ava…
  • I was really hoping more people would jump on sharing numbers. It'd be nice to see how classes stack up and what classes could use improvements.
  • I just so happen to have bashing numbers (with +bal) based on the most recent changes for Teradrim: https://ada-young.com/pastebin/Nl3oQUY3

    For those who can't click:
  • (Quote) Easiest fix is to use the POSE syntax to make it look like you're sitting and simply stay standing mechanically.
  • Someone asked for a product. The product was made. It was not the product people who did not ask wanted. That does not mean it was a bad product, even if it compares unfavorably with other, similar things. It was literally a reque…
  • It wasn't really meant to compare to other game's models.


    When other games have adopted these models - and arguably make them far more enticing and fairer to the consumer (yearly access to visual MMOs are cheaper …
  • I know I've already said this in an esteem, but thank you to @Qelres. You took a chance and have given me such a great story so far. I can't wait to see where it goe…
  • We have city disfavours, the choice to oust someone from city, the ability to sit down and RP at the person, PK in an attempt to force the return of commodities, IC peer pressure, etc. I'm not sure opening the game up to a different flavour of abuse…
  • Without built in guild support, though, I can see some starry eyes Fauxlots or Psuedofex newbies falling through the cracks with proper guides.

    Actually, this is a really good point. We already have Indorani who either …
  • I'm starting a petition to have bards put on the ban list with Jesters.
  • There are untold strategies and combinations still being found all these years later just in interactions between classes on the same tether. There are entire pieces of kits that go unused and unexplored. I don't really think it's a cause for concer…
