The Kingdom of Drakkar

Things to consider: Quick Shadow (11% chance to trigger at sk 37, 20/20 purchases) can trigger on both throws when on hex. This gives the thief about a 1/5th chance of at least one backstab going off in a round. No loss of hide, and if the thief has enough skill, virtually no risk from targeted enem...

WonderSIN powers activate!

Ghost is unbalanced! I quit!

And actually they're not just wandering off. It's pretty easy to see when the crit population takes a drastic nose-dive or if you put a thief at entrance to cave - the npcs go in and never come out. It just become much worse once the party size gets very large ... perhaps you haven't had as large o...

Crits aren't de-spawning, by the way; they often times can't see you either. Then they just wander away.

This is a "problem" stemming from the newly introduced Drakkar2 Banker and Questing system. The new FE itself is what actually causes the change. When the game would use the scroll chat to describe an item (#look at XXX's loincloth, or #sense) it uses the pop up instead. I'd like to see it...

There's not a single lair in Drakkar that can't be beaten by a 4-6 person group of the size the lair is intended for. Just sayin'.

1.) Personal skill gain is based on your target. As Mars told me, no matter how many crits you kill in a round, YOU only gain skill from your target. (Of course in a group scenario, opponents kills grant you skill, as long as you are DOING something [i.e. have something targetted.] Now let's say yo...

Personally, I agree with example #2 being rectified in some manner. Something like, if your #arg or OOC kills an enemy in less than full number of swings (3 for the kill, on a fury round for example) then the last 'swing' is transferred to re-targeting. While currently, that's really just a one swin...

Edit: Who cares.

Edit: Who cares.

CLEAVE TAKES YOUR ZERK AWAY. BARBARIANS ARE BASED UPON ZERK. Thieves are based on hide; backstab takes your hide away to deal huge damage, but can still miss. Paladins are based on defense; foci lower blocking/AC. Martialists (used to, at least) have great MA blocking; chi lowers blocking. The trut...

The current aging situation is near utopian, compared to pre-CC/quirk aging.

I was too tired to read a full page of posts on an old 98SE an an even older monitor, but if you fail to gain HP after 12 months then perhaps instead of gaining HP at that point it could be made easier to re-gain lost HP at that point somehow? You know, I actually agree with that. Although, since h...

I didn't say MA's wouldn't do alright without more retributives, I said that on a basis of comparison, MA's tend to measure up short, and so my personal opinion on how to solve said shortcoming is to buff them with features that require them to take damage to dish it back out (MA's get hit the most,...

Play an MA, and then come talk to me about how much Dragon's Laughter/Recourse actually trigger on the high end. Or maybe you could enlighten me on how an extra 100 damage reflect more than other classes is actually making that feature a significant facet of the MA class at top end.

I've heard argued about barbs having more hps than other classes, which is valid in old nork and cob. Once you get to NL and everything is group based, what's the point, you have a healer there pwh every round, so the hp arguement is moot. Not to mention that all the other classes get AH cast on th...

*sigh* Forget it.

Remove skill caps too... Not completely, mainly off the lower skill levels. I'm not sure if you're aware, but every skill (1-infinity) is capped. The notion that particular skills stand out as having a cap is a piece of misinformation that's long been floating around the player base. Anyway, uncapp...

Let me know when you find out of a bug I've abused. I'm quite curious.

Since the launch of the multi lobby Front End, I and at least one other person seem to be experiencing semi-periodic "freeze ups" while running a few lobbies/game clients. Generally, what this looks like is that, while playing, all in game actions cease (moving, attacking, scroll messages)...

Just because John and myself have been the most active members of the guild in recent times, doesn't mean we're a guild of 2. SIN has been larger than KAM likely ever was at points, and more recently, smaller- communication among members about game issues has always been prevalent. The lack of a lev...

I could play along with this notion that Skip had absolutely no idea there was something off, but I've not seen a single shred of evidence to make me buy into it. Maybe it's because of that excerpt, maybe it's because I personally witnessed members of your guild (Skip included, I believe) wearing th...

What depths can someone sink to in an effort to belittle someone else? I understand flaming and all that, but there used to be unwritten rules, no longer it seems. I don't know what you consider a "flame", but I've not insulted anyone, and I've tried to be fairly nice in my posts here. No...
