You forget [...] key (10*4=40bit->8bytes?)

(Equipment doesn't actually have a "key", it's generated from their ID.)

Cryptographic hash of the ID with a secret value, or the like.
In which case it doesn't have to do a database lookup to bounce off attempts to read an equipment piece's stats without its key.

Then a salt (hidden) should be used instead to prevent people from reverse-engineering the hash function

Standard cryptographic procedure nowadays.

You forget eid(4-8bytes), key(10*4=40bit->8bytes?), enchantment(4*10=40bytes? and owner's id(4bytes?) and 1 bytes for the indexing of each entry.

What database implementation is hentaiverse running on, anyway?

double all that you want, add something here and there, we're still way under 20GB...

How about making the cure amount inpendent from Holy EDB and creating a new ability let prof buff cure?

Beacuse, currently, Melee players (except shield one) are forced to use holy weapons.

Changing it may give other weapon more chance and value. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

You so evil.

Im not even sure which he was trying to get nerfed, melee or holy mage (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Schadenfreude is his middle name, so it's kinda expected of him really.
The worst part about him and his Schadenfreude comments? Our Adminpony-kun has the tendency to hear him out, and when he did, bam, he was shot on the foot while we were shot with the bullets and its shrapnel's right into the place where it really hurts.

why not both.

i'd always imagine GC is those "Save the Planet Kill yourself" type of people. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

So, i made a post, but no one bothered to reply, so i will just leave it here:
So guys, when i was a noob in HV, i've always wanted to be a Heavy cleric, (Heavy armor + Mace + Holy Magic) but now, when i wanted to see if i could start making this, i realized there is not good gear for this to be a good choise since you will spent a lo of mana with HA interference, and battlecaster weapons don't grant magic damage (neither armor).

So i wanted to know what do you guys think, is there a way to make gear to be heavy mage without being Overpowered?

Like:

Higher Burden
Armor lowering action speed
Armor wirh less physical mitigation
Less Melee Primaty attributes (Str,End,Dex)
Or the absence of some some of then when increasing magic attributes
Making magic damage depending on weapon (Elmental for Swrods, Rapiers/stocs, Holy for Maces/Clubs,Dark for Katanas) etc
Shields with less block chance ,and weapons/armor lowering it (with Suffix)?

All of this to compesate low interference and better magical stats.

well that's all thanks for reading, Hope this can be done in the future.

Hmm, closest thing to heavy mage armors would be the Arcanist Armaments (shade armor with arcanist suffix), or Phase Armaments. To make your heavy mage setup thingy to be exactly what it says on the tin, you'll need an armor that grants EDBs, low interference but with burden and mitigation's equivalent to the heavy armors, imo this kind of armor alone would be too game-breaking to be introduced into the Hentaiverse because it combines two of the most efficient battle styles into one really.
As for the shield, there's the buckler for the job, actually, but ain't no rule you can't equip a force shield on your heavy mage setup, right?
As for making magic damage depend on weapon type... well, that'll leave the rest of the elemental weapons in the dust.

why not both.

Make that save the green planet and make extinct everything that is sapient on it, thereby dooming the planet itself in the long run... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

rough estimate: 46 703 093 * 170 ~ 7.4 GB

(yep, compared to the galleries that's almost nothing)

It's about 2.1 gigs. Which, while tiny compared to the size of the gallery image files, is a non-insignificant chunk of the database. Which needs to mostly fit in RAM.

But but I'm one of those type of people, though with the extra "Make sure you kill yourself before me" (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

just saying, is it really 15 minutes the critical time for an item in bazaar to be deleted from system? i'm pretty sure to have seen the same crappy average longsword of battlecaster for many days...

Schadenfreude is his middle name, so it's kinda expected of him really.

he's a fucking annoying troll, so ignoring it would be enough to rest him.
if it doesn't work, we can simply give him a tree, a ladder and a saw and wait until he cuts the wrong branch... even though he seems to have some luck in avoiding so...

Did Tenboro just say that all of our equips are stored in a volatile memory bank (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

All Your Equip Are Belong To RAM.

And he was recently complaining about bad ram...

He probably meant that he needs to cache the entire equips database due to its high access frequency.

I bet 10B put HV database on a RAID6 or RAID10 or something. So there will be >2 copies of the data lying around at all time (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Aww you ruined it by telling him the truth.

And here I thought why is everyone's limited to 1000 equip slots... so that's why...

On top of Raid, he may have a few redundant copy on different computers/HDs using some database functions.

To get more choice when select equipment, no only to stack Holy EDB.

It largely limited my equipment setting plan.

Get more way to buff cure because it is one of essential spell and everyone need it.

It' will be a big buff for melee, and Holy mages won't get any nerf and cmay get something else like more powerful drain.

As far as melee weapon is concerned, Holy is still not as popular as Ethereal... And no melee user ever stack holy EDB (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

You should have just said to buff cure, to the point that the cure bonus from EDB becomes insignificant (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) The way you said it sounded like you just want to remove holy EDB bonus without any buff to compensate for it.
