Hammer swat is supposed to respect block, and has since class inception fwiw. With 2 unstoppable blocks (Templar/bear) and a pull that can only be countered with a single class not block (Shaman pull), my point remains that your side does tend to ha…
Sentinel bear blocks an exit, as does aura focus'd Templar. Shaman can pull adjacent with 0 risk to self so long as we have no Teradrim. I also don't think lure can AOE pull like beckon can, but it kept getting changed so I may be wrong.
Scepter makes any class with a high audit bashing viable, since you can wield a shield and use it. Prae's biggest issue is dps, and scepter mitigates that (mend is p. nice).
So far as I'm aware, it's 40 hours and always starts at the same time and ends at the same time. Hence asking for variance. Though I'm basing this on reading announce posts and in Orrery IntroductionComment by TozFebruary 2017
No, the issue is that the last 12 hours matter. Not the rest of the time. You can go (we have gone) from 5 yours to 3 theirs in that time or a little more. And since the last 12 of the orrery are when we are asleep and at work, spirit gets a win by …
Phone quotes suck so: ' Yes. I know. I'm going to point out the fact now that I realize how much your solution benefits the side that has it at the end, depending on which time zone it's in. It almost guarantees that time zone the win. If it is…
I hate quests as a gold mechanic and hope they die, and the malicious part of me dreams of writing and releasing an auto quester so the rest of you see how awful it is and all quests are always done.
This is another one of those times where certain people make an ass of themselves on the forums by posting about things they don't seem to know much/anything about, and by demonstrating an impressive lack of empathy and/or manners. Losing your guild…

Everyone would be pissed but it'd be objectively fair? IMO there is room for that but with an IC bent. Have a town spring up nearby that needs help building/a place each city is tight with needs some stuff. This would tie in (theoreti…
It isn't about guards or anything of that nature. You created market uncertainty. There may (or may not) be a system forthcoming that balances comm use and requires comm investment. There may (or may not) be forthcoming changes to allow cities to re…
The comm thing itself always felt like a knee-jerk reaction, just like nerfing gold drops on bashing. 'We have a problem of too much', with the solution that follows being a direct attack on the symptom, rather than trying to cut out the cause itsel…

Part of the problem, I'd speculate, is that while there's now no concrete need for stuff, the habit of hoarding because 'you never know when you might need it' is still in full force. Stuff HAS, in the PAST, relied on comms and will presum…
Everyone saying that Spinesreach has no place for a militant/soldier type is doing poor @Kelliara's Atabahi a great disservice. They DID have a front line, vicious…

Just because people can't sit in safety doesn't mean they are going to suddenly have an eye-opener moment where they start skipping and singing musical numbers. They're just gonna either go house->haven or afk on guards. If people …
Which is what @arbre is saying - now you can do the exact same thing as always, just behind a 250cr paywall. You can't prism into houses from outside neighborhood, an…
Hi so re: afk, my girlfriend has severe anxiety. Often when I go afk, it is because she sent me a message on Skype. She might need me for 10 seconds, it might be 3 hours. I don't know until 10 minutes after I'm gone if I'll be able to make it back t…
I sit in my haven when I'm (at work and on my phone|not paying full attention|coding|working on things|don't want to deal with people). I'm just going to go into my haven in player housing from now on, since almost nobody can get to me in there.
Also every RPI I have played/been a part of except one (CarrierRPI) has had some kind of system of long-distance talking or communication. ARPI/PRPI/Haven(wasn't there long) all had radios or cell phones put in so you could reach out and nudge peopl…
Maybe make the zone where orbs spawn a sub-area like the Orrery is, so that if you're in that area it's open PK like some sort of location (or perhaps zone?) of high hazards, or danger.
I don't think it would help with people grouping in public. You'd just wind up with people grouping privately with the ones they want to talk to, or chatting in webs instead. I like tells because I can sit in my haven mostly afk/coding and still rep…
Vakmut-style racing, things with flavor text. Everyone loves rooting for a team, so any kind of sport thing where you do room echoes is going to be popular I think, as far as gambling goes? - Let us bet on sect fights? - Or HG fights. Have…
