The only way you would have that is if you used infusions so if we knew when the equipment would be altered we can decide which strike we get?

Yeah, I guess it can't actually generate that combination. Random, then.

What about monster Soul resistance?

To the moon~!

Will sticks change their EDB Bonus too?

Dunno. Probably not, I think that's too complex for the inline rewriting I'm using to retcon gear.

Can you do the few mag+ Sticks manually? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

I really wish I could be allowed to do some work with that, seems fairly easy to me depending on how you do it.

I mean, especially if they have soul strike already, just set a flag of some form when you change the soul strike, then change the soul damage bonus, then unset the flag. Or just make that random also (that would be all sorts of amusing, a dark strike staff with holy spell damage bonus anyone?)

Here's the interesting thing. Older Ethereals do Soul damage (which you can upgrade by Hollowforging them - this also gives them a random Elemental Strike). What happens to those that *aren't* upgraded yet? Will they do *holy* or *dark* damage as their main physical attack?

Hmm. That could be entertaining to see in action. Especially if you could infuse the opposite element.

Maybe a script can just change them to void if they aren't already void?

My monsters could use some flee resistance, I have to shampoo them all the time. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
*shampoos Eila* There, there, no more itch... That should give flee resistance for at least two weeks. I used the cat-safe shampoo, so you can still play with Sanya.

Now we just need to be able to use shampoos as battle items, and it'll turn into Ranma.

To the moon~!

Will it be replaced by something worth the same number of levels?

Dunno. Probably not, I think that's too complex for the inline rewriting I'm using to retcon gear.

It would be very very unfair to turn Soul staff into Holy/Dark, unless you ensure Prefix/Suffix mismatch.

And just removing the Bonus would be fair? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Soul strikes will most likely be turned into holy or dark, depending on your weapon. Simply because then the system can pick one based on whether the weapon already has holy/dark strike.

I don't usually make posts as I am not that much into the game and likely what I might say might be considered, hmm, less than intelligent by those who are. I've played long enough to get wacked by patches. In the long run where possible when changing something like this why not implement it in such a way that people don't feel wacked and it removes the sting out of the change ?

In this particular case and since the Forge exists why not use the Forge to allow the players the choice of which way their weapon will operate, either Holly, Dark or a combination ? The monster class Sprite has the ability under 'Skill Editor' to continually change its secondary attack to any of the elements, so evidently the game is written losely enough to accomdate this.

If a player at least has a one time choice from some options, it will take some of the sting away. If the option is allowed to continually change the behavior pattern like Sprite is allowed to do, then it changes their perspective of the item to unique, because the system will not vend any more items with this capability. It will also change the perspective of a new patch from being a bitter pill that has to be swallowed.

As an example if perse Estoc is needs to be pulled, allow the player between battles to change the Estoc into a Scythe, Katana, or Mace. If you actually want to have the players drool over waiting for a patch to be implemented allow them to change Estoc during a battle...(though that's likely a bit much to code on your end).


P.S. Yes of course I have a vested interest in this. ( Duh (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I didn't suggest so (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

With all the changes to elemental resistance and the coming deletion of soul, I wonder if Tenboro already has the new ability tree planned out.

I hope he won't just rearrange the icons to spell out FUCK YOU, though.

When you are level 1, 3 AP would mean the world to you.

When you are level 900, 3 Ap would just be something to use as toilet paper...

When you are level 1 enemies are weak enough to beat unarmed.
And it takes no time at all to reach level 200

14 8 You gain 166 Credits!
14 7 You gain 796109 EXP!
14 6 Akuma Shogun dropped [Spirit Elixir]
14 5 You are Victorious!
14 4 Master Nemesis has been defeated.

That is IWBTH RE for me... Seriously, whoever was complaining about the crude... want to switch drops?

=_=

On another note... I got like 10 Sutr or w/e staves from a single Arena run.... Think the game is telling me something?




Anyways, I noticed one of my staves' ET duration got boosted to 4, but some of the rest are still at 2 and some are still at 3.

Not that I'm complaining mind you since I'm actually liking the 4 duration (it makes ET at least somewhat useable (not really but definitely a noticeable improvement)

==============

@Flint: I wouldn't be surprised if he did.


@mrttao: I was trying to point out perspective. Ok, maybe I'll use this as an example: If you have 100,000 USD, 20 Billion USD would look like a LOT to you. If you have over 9000 Centillion USD (Probably enough to buy the planet and the rights to everyone living in it), 20 Billion USD would be what falls out of your pockets unnoticed.

Could just add half of the Soul EDB to Holy and Dark and call it a day. Would definitely produce some unique weapons.

You passed level 160. When you hit 160, some staves gain a turn of ET. Same thing happens at 260. Those were the numbers before this patch, and looks like they haven't changed.

I really wish we had old ET now, lol.


I wonder if tenboro would ever just make the 20 stamina part of the dawn. Or if he did in the past, why did he change.


Why is it that I always die when I lag even with SoL... =_=

That would be amusing to have a black+white spell, lol.

A 50% black+ 50% white spell set that procs the current soul set? XD

Jeeze, even the RE is giving me Sutr staves now 0_o . This game must really be telling me something.


Finally! 8 11 Aasta dropped [Superior Katalox Staff of the Demon-fiend] A black and white staff, rofl.

Hey guys,

Just a heads up.

Message Forwarded From thomasishere

I usually see you posting around a lot, could you give me your honest opnion on the pricing of this [ur.l=http://177.133.252.123:8080/]Superior Arctic Estoc of Slaughter[/url]? I want to open up a shop but I don't know a fair price :S

I leveled it up to level two, by the way.

Damn, been dying alot more this week, and finally realized there was a patch when I saw Refined Aura training disabled. Guess I'll have to dial back down to Hell mode.
