  1. I indeed deleted my character. Someone already re-created it, so if you see Elise online, its not me! Hope whoever it was won't abuse it.

     

    Bye bye friends, I'll be around in PlaneShift if you want to come visit me. :P


  2. Elise hasnt trained much lately and i think she wants it to stop other training to over take her.

    Am I that transparent? :D

    I don't want to stop other people training, I don't even PK. I don't need low levels to die, I suck enough at PKing to die at high lvls too. I just want fighting monsters to be fun. I might even start playing again if this happened.

     

    I do understand why high level fighters and PKers might not like if all spawns were random, but I think this game should be fun. It should not cater only to the needs and wants of power gamers.


  3. And do you think this will make it less boring?

    IMHO it'll just make it more anoying. I mean, what's the fun in looking for ore, harvesting, ah crap it's empty, looking for more ore?

    I think it could make it much more fun. Maybe you just aren't explorer?


  4. Would it be possible to make it so that veins that are further away from the exits (deeper in the cave) have more ore than veins near the exits? So basicly the deeper you go into the cave the better chances you have of finding an ore vein that has enough ore for your needs.

     

    The point with this would be that maybe the full time harvesters could occupy the deeper and darker places of the cave and people who are only quickly harvesting some ore can do so near the entrances.


  5. Loth you need to lay off the carrot juice! :D

     

    Maybe create two kinds of Disengagement Rings - one Lesser, and one Greater. The Lesser one will have the effects you described (instant flee, 2 sec, -100 att/def exp), and the Greater one will have additional benefits (instant flee, 10 damage to opponent, 7 sec time, no exp loss). You could then put them at different crafting levels.

    Good otherwise but I think the Greater Dis Ring you describe here is a bit too strong. 5 sec flee time and no exp loss would be enough imo.

     

    How about change it so that when you use a (normal) Dis Ring, the other person can still move around but not attack you?


  6. Many people have suggested using shortcuts to overcome the difficulties with the new interface when it comes to fighting. There are however some real problems with shortcuts:

     

    Many actions are not configurable to shortcuts. Most notably the attack-icon is missing, which is of prime importance in fighting and PKing. Also the new Use With -icon is missing.

     

    Some shortcuts are hardcoded, like ALT-X, F5, F6,F8 and F9. I tried to set Walk-shortcut to ALT-Z and Use-shortcut to ALT-X... :(

     

    I might try programming these changes myself :rolleyes: but I can't get the latest CVS to work.


  7. A last idea would be so that only people who have been playing for 2 months or less can ask, and then everybody else would have to PM the answers to them.

    Well the other ideas sound good but this last one, because an answer on the channel benefits everyone on the channel. There are some people who for some reason might not want to ask some particular question on the channel but rather wait until someone else asks it.


  8. Well for me, if I use an item in inventory or quickbar, the cursor changes to use-icon in the main window. Further, now I have to make sure I have the use-icon selected in both the inventory and quickbar windows before entering PK. That I often forget to do.

    Also it seems you can't use alt-leftclick as a shortcut to attack someone/something anymore.

     

    Well like Saro said it's hard to get used to this new interface. I think it will take a long time before I stop instinctively double rightclicking on the quickbar.


  9. I also don't like the new interface. It's cumbersome when I'm fighting fluffy because now I have to constantly change between the normal and finger icons.

    It's bad in PKing because you can't quickly use any item anymore like you could with double rightclick.

     

    Also I do prefer to use the mouse alone because with shortcuts I have to take my eyes of the sreen.


  10. I think summoning is a way to be fast strong.

    It's fast? ;) Then why so few people have summoning over 30?

    You can't get any gc from summoning and you need ELE's to summon the strongest monsters. To make it fair, how about killing a Fluffy requires an ELE and killing a Chimmy requires an EME? :lol:
