As someone who tried to play a split character (albeit far less split than @Pazradym ) a long time ago, I super dig the look and the character from what I've seen.
Plus the whole point of the guy's character is he's a white guy speaking Mandarin that he only learned after like age 10, which ofc. they're going to butcher without like, constant, obsessive linguistic training (which I don't think gets covered in …
No. No class requires a weapon rune. Outside of extreme cases with specific setups, no class requires any artifacts to exist/be useful except +EQ. Again, if you think 7% AFF/damage/active cure/other stuff rate is on par with the .1s of speed you gai…
Mage: arti shield, that arti for crystals, magic_potence, actually need MANA help potentially Shaman: tank arties, WP artifact, int to make zap-out viable Lum: idk Vamp: weapon rune, blood arti, they scale on bal stats (STR to pressur…
This thread is now about how dumb crown is, pls keep on topic. $270 to play mage/cabalist/Lum/etc. Optimal? Introduce a band of balancing and nerf balance classes and watch the world burn, so why is crown OK?
Drai actually put a report in for this years ago (#1977) and was told they didn't think it was necessary. I dunno if stuff has changed since then, but I think prevailing opinion of players is it needs a change.
Crown is the artifact that I single out as being horrible for game balance. Classes must be balanced around it, but to argue you can do 'fine without' means either you are wrong or the class with is OP. If you could be 'fine' without crown you'd see…

Armor in this game is bizarre. Heavy armor classes actually tend to be squishier, with their base resist provided to other classes via skills (mages don't wear ANY armor, but with shield+stoneskin they get high phys audit), AND there's a d…
I'd caution against Carnifex, the endurance drain is super nuts. You can bash forever as Cabalist (tanky), I think? With no arties, class tankiness is going to be a major factor imo of where you can/can't bash.
Which is stupid since long-ass nonsense passwords are just as weak to brute force attacks as long-ass passwords you can remember. And dictionary attacks can be beat by including a gibberish word in the chain. So you could do like (#(5891))4)2 and ha…
"“I pointed out several times that these requirements literally make it impossible to create an acceptable password," said Capt. Tom Garrison, the only end-user and non-civilian working in the SHIT office. “They told me to contact the help desk for …

I've been sort of torn on getting something like Keepass. I'm reaching the point of 'too many passwords to remember', but I'm also instinctively mistrustful of anything that's like 'oh yeah buddy, sure you can give me all your passwords'.
I love the concept of the scratchoff promotion, but the winning odds are, uh.
Ok so people can double-check my math, there's (a-c)(1-3), meaning 9 total boxes. To win, you need to hit the same three symbols out of 9. I'd calculate that as…
Also pretty sure Roan (founder) was living when he made the Infernals, I dunno if he was when he came back -- but it does make sense for living to want to avoid giving Dhar their soul and practice deathlore.

'While some believe that the undead are bereft of a soul, others maintain that it is the soul's inability to depart the physical body that defines undeath.'
So either undead can't get their soul out of their body (and thus can't…

Crush needs a significant rework but it's balanced oddly in that if you make crush weak the entire thing falls apart - Carnifex has a rather uninspiring limb route until you steal some soul. Once you can crush though, your salve press…
Yes, we got a significant overhaul to how deathlore/our offense works. Now we are lock/momentum based and we have a...Cheesy limb route to fall back on. You looking for logs or specifics?
"Love is a tender thing," Magnificent Officiant Amias contemplates, tracing small flowers and hearts with glittering pink and gold light in the air. "Something to be cherished in these difficult times, for life can be short, and must be …
So Zealot is the weaker form of monk, IMO- what makes tekura scary is wrench throws. Once you get prone, wrench dominates because if you can work around their parry (50/50 on legs?) You can keep them prone until you quad break and insta with head da…
On my phone so not as able to post as normal, but @Seir's summary is pretty solid. I personally dislike Carni limb route since it's cheese or go home, but the AFF rout…
