She does bring up a good point on point 7. Frost bolt the basic ice spell is much more difficult to get than the basic fire and lightning spells. And to top things off, its much worse than them.

Yea really, I mean frostbolt flat out sucks for low levels...I dont think a 0.3 damage spells gonna kill anything stong anytime soon till you ATLEAST hit level 15 where then, OMG its 2.0....woo big jump there lol.

But yea the frostbolt spell is a little sketchy in terms of power.

I just hope Stone Skin and Ice shield don't stack because that could be game breaking. :|

Stuck in her jar...
I got something to add!

I'd like it if rats summon from the rat scroll didn't fade so darn quickly! Same with the snakes from the staff!

I agree with the summons thing, also with the female model thing.

Rat duration increases with your Spellcasting/Concentration skills. There's also the Fangtooth summoning scroll later on, and those last twice as long.

The snakestaff snakes have a short life due to a potentials ploit, plus they do not count against the summon limit. Tis not the primary advantage to the snake staff, however.

Trust me, it's better not having the female models sometimes. I remember when the female sounds worked and everyone would be like "ZOMG U GURL U SUK LOL SUK ME SUK ME." Ah, the perils of female gaming. You get used to using the guy model anyways!

I thought they still do work.. I swear I heard a female sound for taking falling damage...The female sounds can't be as bad as those 'cold lady' sounds. :oldshock:

What's the point of playing a female then? :D

Seriously though, if females are to be added they should be done well.

makes sense to me, that and it makes more sense on a combat stance as well. I highly doubt a women with a chest size of watermelons would want to pick up and swing a giant sword... Not only would her chest be in the way it would throw balance off and not to mention its a strain on the back.

just my two cents about what I think we should do for female models, seriously we don't need to incorporate a big busted female to add a female model into the game.

I agree. Modest female figures would be better. On a sidenote, I heard that Thoth is considering getting rid of parry... is it possible we could divide the magic levels by 5 instead of 7 while we're at it? Its kind of the opposite problem there... And stackable bolts and potions :? ? I heard that's the kind of coding prolblem that Thothie doesn't handle, but still. It be nice :D . Especially with the bolt guzzling sxbow coming out soon. I also kind of think that the leveling curb for higher levels is a bit too high.

The level ramp is there for a very good reason, no content exist that can handle a level 45+ community with people in the 50's with over 1.2khp. Once that content exist the level ramp will be adjusted accordingly, on the other notes, I agree that some way of consolidating bolts/arrows will be almost neccecary, I don't like our current restriction of how many bolts/arrows we can carry being based on a but with item limits. As for the female model, it just need to be like the male model.... barely passable for such.

Sidenote: Thothie is DEFINITELY going to be getting rid of parry. Your guild is an example of why. It's just not as high priority as most of the stuff thoth is working on, so it gets shoved back.

As well, for magic, it's currently 7 because 1) If it was divisible by 5 everyone would suddenly jump a bunch of SC levels and 2) The magic consolidation will fix this.

Stackable arrows/bolts/potions I've heard Thoth talk of this -- Making an NPC to combine stacks, though he didn't mention potions.

The leveling ramp can be countered by playing certain maps over and over and playing alot. Picadilly, slaytanic_pb, and joe have managed to get about there, and will soon go past level 45. As for why parry is being gotten rid of, its really simple - it shatters egos.

edit: My post may not have been clear. I don't want parry removed. Although I wouldn't mind if my parry level didn't effect my title. That might a good thing. I don't want the HP and mana that comes with it gone, that's my main issue.

Parry is NOT going away for that reason, it's going away because MiB (or was it Shuriken) and Thothie have been working on a new parry system, wich will allow you to parry depending on your weapon (or weapons) and the up-comming title system, wich I can't wait for.

I personally can't wait for the day that parry will no longer influence your level.
All these god damned parry whores with their high levels and crap HP kind of annoy me to be honest.

I didn't say THE reason, I said an example. But yes, I should have stated that, as well.

QFE/A.

As for the female playermodel, that isn't happening until the current playermodel's armor bug is fixed, but don't quote me on that ;)

The Title system will be all Thothie's. All I did was add the function to allow titles/names to be changed.

Hasn't even been started, SFAIK, and it will take a long time. Thothie has a lot of stuff to do, and he's the only one who does scripts. I'm busy with programs I could actually get paid for, so I haven't had much time for MS:C ;-)
