    They should be rarer than warlock cape ^_^

     

     

    Maybe they should be that rare but only if theres a chance that most monsters drop them from Orc upwards.

     

    Rare should be a slim chance to be dropped 0.0001 % etc not which monsters drop them


  2.  

    The other day I made 2 efe's in less than 50 fe, and 1 ele in less than 200 le all in about an hour span, and I don't have artificer perk :icon13:

     

    Its all down to luck at the end of the day, people failed to realise taking the arti perk didnt guarantee Enhanced items it just improved your luck by a little bit but it was still all down to luck (which is how it should be . random)


  3.  

     

    how about giving us an oppertunity to recieve the cape, and enough nexus to use the cape in exchange for the perk being removed. if the person does not want to have the perk, they can sell their cape to someone who does. they will have nexus, and gc for their trouble.

     

     

    Not a bad idea but if the cloak is given to everyone then even the people who wanted the perk removed will have a cloak + the PP's << bit unfair

     

    maybe the option is to leave the perk ingame but drop its pp.cost and make it a pre-requiste for using the cloak.

     

    ie:

     

    perk = 2 pp but doesnt do anything on its own ( people recieve 5 pp back if perk already taken, losing 2 pp but them's the breaks call it the cost of benefitting from the perk while they had it )

     

    cloak = is on sale at npc for price say 10k but only works with a high nexus , human,art whatever.

     

    Then those who want the perk will buy the cloak and use there returned 5pp to up there nexus to required level. Those that dont have lost 2 pp but have got 5 back .

     

    Just suggestion . totally up to Ent and dont want ppl to start complaining so we lose the cape before we even get it

     

    :icon13:


  4. oh. my. god.

    :blink::blink:

     

    this is insane, anyone else who doesnt like a perk has an option to reset to get rid of it, thats what reset is there for.

     

    and i absolutely cannot believe people saying 'fraud'

    as much as i enjoy the game and as many hours as i spend on here...this is a GAME people a free game at that, not insurance or any other kind of advertising...a game.

    and since im a momma i can say it....when my kids get this frustrated over a game, it is taken away from them for awhile until they can settle down and act their age.

     

    it was a simple mistake in saying what the chance was in the description, nothing more than that.

    instead of shouting 'fraud, fraud, omg i've been frauded'

     

    how about....

    thank you for the apology ent, and the offer to correct the typo and thank you all the dev's and mods for the time and effort you have spent to keep my internet-addicted butt entertained...?

     

    and before anyone thinks im 'picking' on them for being an i-addict, let me tell you, i work on computers all day and come home and play while im doing housework or whatnot, so im right there in the lump of addicts :icon13:

     

    just on a side note...i have had excellent luck with the arti perk, i have had it since i started playing the game, i have made probably hundreds of thousands of fe's and had great results in efe's, all i ever really heard was 'a higher chance' and that was enough for me to spend the pp on it.

     

    Totally agree LaNora. lets just hope people have learned from this ( which knowing human nature they wont have ) and I also hope it doesnt start the trend of people thinking " If we moan enough Ent will change the game to suit us ".


  5.  

     

    Anyway, since it seems that there are people that really like this perk, I decided to implement the cape in a few weeks (it will require human nexus 10, and will be relatively rare, as a monster drop). I also hope that the fighters that will get the drops will NOT sell it to the people who bitched on this thread.

     

     

    I for one would like to say thanx to Ent for Implementing the cape, he didnt have to and to be quiite honest after some of the comment about " being cheated and lied to " last night im surprised he has.

    Must be hard to try and balance the game to suit everyone and i think its about time we as players remembered that and look at the bigger picture before we want things added/removed from the game.The GAME IS NOT JUST ABOUT OURSELFS and how it best suits us but about the community as a whole.

     

    Mistakes are going to be made in a game that is still in developement and we are in a honoured posistion of being able to add to the final game with are input and suggestions and to help fix those mistakes. Ent strikes me as a person who can take critisism aslong as it is CONSTRUCTIVE and not a bitch fest,maybe people should remember that and take 5 like Ghrae says before posting.( or if a member of a guild discuss it with guildees first before jumping in with both feet ).

     

    My input on the cape : At the end of the day thats up to Ent but putting it under Artifier and not Human seems a sensible option, 10 nexus to use it ,fine by me, monster drop good idea but be nice if it was also available from a NPC even if the price was high say 100k ( Its not at the whim of the fighters then who has it ).

    The perk it self . i wouldnt change a thing. I think the % is about right anymore and to many rare items would be made.

    End of the day its down to Ent. Im just happy that a compromise has been reached

     

    Thanx


  6. Day of the Dropouts.

    Today, all knowledge from books is negated. All research is halted and you cannot read any books.

     

    Roleplaying: You are having a hard time with your studying that everything just seems blank to you.

     

     

    :omg: Great idea Ace. all knowledge from books negated = cant make anything with out the knowledge

     

    Cant wait to see this ingame. O wait havent we already got a no manufacture day ;)


  7. or maybe instead of the cape, just do the bonus for high nexus thing that was talked about before? eg: when your nexii reaches twice what's needed for something (or maybe it's 2 over, say, since some of the essences would get around this) you get an extra 20%

     

     

    How would that work ?

     

    Since essences dont require a nexus to be made, unless a seperate Alch nexus was made !! which is more work for the Dev's i would imagine than a cape


  8. Maybe (and this is a big maybe) I will make some cape in the future, very rare and requiring nexus 10 or so to wear.

     

    IF << i know big if that is implemented in the future it will be a nice compromise for the people who did like this perk

     

     

    Edit: better get some Enhanced Essies made before the perk goes and price rockets ( nxt complaint will be .. "not enough ingame ..price to high " lol :omg:


  9. Ok, tell you what.

    I am going to remove that perk from the wraith, and automatically give back to everyone those precious 7 PPs.

     

    I didn't like that perk anyway, it was totally unballanced, and way too powerful.

     

    Of course, this takes some time to fix, so the update that was supposed to come tomorrow will be delayed by a week or so (I have other things to do as well).

     

     

    And this is fare how ???? Just because a few ppl dont like the perk , everyone else who does like it has to suffer . seriously nice to see the rest of the community who posted to get rid of the perk only thinking about themselves.

     

     

    The problem isnt with " I was told 50% and its only 30% " the problem is people havent made loads and loads of enhanced essies. If they had the 30% wouldnt be an issue .

    Its like not winning the lottery and then wanting your money back and not only that wanting the winners to return there winnings as well .

     

     

     

    Nevertheless, I never liked this perk, because it can be abused and it puts too many rare items in the game. And the irony is, the chance of making some of the rare stuff and the drops of some rare stuff is going to be decreased the next update (this has been already implemented before the bitching about the artificer and I will explain the changes more after the update). So it would have been in your best advantage to keep your mouth shut instead of complaining about this perk, because it would have made you rich (again, I will explain more at the next update).

     

     

    Need I say more apart from once again for the minority whinging Thanx from the rest of us well done :omg:


  10. I hope if this perk is removed to keep certain players happy then Ent considers adding an Artificer cape to the game for the majority who like the perk

    Doubt it. Capes don't use up pp (unless you use a human nexus of 10 or so to wear this cape??). I would immediately buy this cape, even though I don't have the perk.

     

    Nexus 10 sounds fare to me . we will get 7 back from the perk so not losing any by upping my human from 6 to 10

     

    Nexus 10 also keeps it for players who enjoy it and not just everyone


  11. Ok, tell you what.

    I am going to remove that perk from the wraith, and automatically give back to everyone those precious 7 PPs.

    Its like any other perk if you tried it and dont like the results reset , we've all been there and done that .What nxt ppl dont like NMT perks so lets get that removed and sod everyone else.

     

    30% or 50% it doesnt matter its all down to personal preferance . if i had know it was only 30% and knew how many Enhanced essies i would make then i still would have taken it.

     

     

    my stats with artificer:

     

    30k Fe's = 15 EFe's

     

    11k Le's = 19 ELe's

     

    9k We's = 1 EWe

     

    I havent had a problem with the perk and thinks its the best 7pp ive spent , so why should myself and others who like the perk be penalized because a few dont.

     

    Thanx guys :)

     

    The problem isnt with " I was told 50% and its only 30% " the problem is people havent made loads and loads of enhanced essies. If they had the 30% wouldnt be an issue .

  12. OK so I have some perk ideas, let me know what you think!

     

     

    Hard-Headed - *Negative Perk* Helmets give you 50% as much armor as normal.

    Suggested Reqs: -3pp

     

     

     

    How is that a neg perk ? nothing negative about it 50% more head armour + 3pp

     

    if neg perk should be hard headed - 3pp cant wear head armour


  13.  

    This is my personal charge against atheists and even agnostics. I have found that many people tend to embrace these two views NOT because they are looking for 'proof', but because they are looking for validation of their way of life. In other words, there are plenty of insincere, hypocritical atheists and agnostics too. They want to continue the way they have been living, do not wish for a morally-righteous God who can pass judgement on them, so deny He exists and use "the lack of proof" as a defence for not subscribing to a religion, rather than admitting their fear that He might change them.

     

    Lmao Talk about slander everyone who doesnt believe in a God .

     

    You can say I dont believe so I can continue living my immoral life, where as I can say you believe because you are a sheep, to scared to live you own life, your own way without the crutch of religion.

     

    You may have noticed out of all this discussion this is the only point ive taking issues with and has got my back up.

     

    Holyness does not equal moral-righteousness.There have been countless HOLY people who have commited unmoral acts and plenty of aethist who have lived there life better than most religious people.

    I think if we took a close look at both our life's , I can guarantee that you have not lived your life better because of your holyness.

    Morals come from upbringing, If you do not know what is right or wrong without a book telling you then you have had a pretty poor upbringing.

     

    Honestly with one paragraph you have ridiculed all the good work done by aethists in hospitals,Charities etc.

     

    The only differance in how the majority of aethist and Believers live is that we dont judge people .Old saying " people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones ".

     

    Im an aesthist why ermm dont know just have never felt God in any shape or form but that is my choice,same as it is your choice to believe in Religion. Doesnt in no way make you a better person

     

     

    Anyway I better shut up before it gets to flamey :) ( and ive got a virgin to sacrafice :D )


  14. Staves for Mages is a reoccuring suggestion. A nice simple form would be Staves of Essences, made by binding an enriched essense to a staff, to aid casting spells using that essence when equipped. Two possible iterpretations of this effect:

    1. Reduce the cost for a spell by one of the bound essence.
    2. Allow that essence to be drawn from storage rather than inventory.

    If we are binding exotics to staves, then this could include stones; Staff of Serpent (Sslessar?) may be useful for summoners, but what could the other stones do?

     

     

    Staff of serpent(stone): 3 - 5 % chance to poison opponent

     

    Staff of Binding (stone) : 3- 5% chance to freeze opponent for 5 seconds


  15. .

     

    I think it's very important for the reader to be able to visualize things, but just saying essences instead of stones would help to put the story more in the EL world as I stated. What you had written there about them was fine, but it's important to integrate in the world as well.

     

    Totally understand . I wrote the story as someone who has played the game for over a year ,forgetting that the stories might be read by people who have only just or never played.I took it for granted being on the EL forum ppl would understand :)

     

    I would like that thankyou and if its possible and time permitting I would like to continue the story of my character as well


  16. Like I mentioned in my original reply to your editing .You havent taken to many liberties in anyway. It all about THE story being better not MY story. If i wasnt open to change and critisism then i never would have posted the story in the first place. As long as any comments are constructive ( which they all have been thanx again) then it is fine

     

    How to explain what im trying say ermm :o

     

    Im not someone who take his story/work and treats it like a baby ,wrapped in cotton wool to keep it safe from outside influences.Its there to be made better by who ever can .so I take the critisism in the good way it was ment.

    Have I given up on the story, no I havent but I cant see how myself can make this part of the story any better.

     

    Maybe its myself who takes a few liberties with what I know as the writer and what I want the reader to know .As see you point about the outlaws and praying but to me what he would have prayed about was not important it was why he didnt if that makes sense

     

    The outlaws could be classed as THE main thread but I see it as Conavar himself is the main thread ( Roja ask for storys about our characters as examples , so I tried to keep it firmly based on the man and not get jumbled trying to explain all his abilities, skills etc in one short story ).

     

    Your Help and comments have been greatly appreciated Phil so thankyou


  17.  

    The stones : I took a few liberties with the EL world >The stones are 5 health essences and 3 Death and when combined together make a HARM spell .

    I didnt just want to write " He cast's a harm spell " I tried to visually interpret it. hope it worked

     

    Thanx for the help .

    I know im not perfect at this so any help is appreciated Thankyou.

     

    You should probably have said essences then, that would make more sense, plus it's better to have more relational objects present in your story, so the story is more easily viewed as being from EL.

     

     

     

    Point taken just me trying to make it more interesting than just " he take's out 5 health and 3 death essences to cast a harm spell " <<< maybe me but i think thats lazy story telling .Stories are best in my opinion if u can visualize what is happened rather than just being told. Which is why i took the look of the Essences from the game ( health = rainbow ) and the amount and left the rest to peoples imagination ( I tried to tell the story from the view of what the character would know not what I know as a player ), if that didnt work then im sorry but felt at the time made a better story. but it was my first attempt in 13 years (im old ),you asked for people to submit there work and was only really ment to show what I can write ( not perfect by anymeans i know ).So if its not the type of thing you are looking for then that is fine , I will take the critisism in the way it was ment and say thankyou I learnt a lot

     

    Help alot though having someone else read it and add there own lil take on it

     

    Edit : Maybe I suffer from trying over complicate the story thats not for me to judge
