1 2 You are healed for -0 Health Points.
1 1 You cast Cure.

... That was weird.

Representation of floating point numbers in memory allows for there being a positive zero and a negative zero. They're the same, and it only matters in specific fringe circumstances, like dividing infinities: inf/-0 = -inf , inf/0 = inf . Sometimes the code that displays zero might be written in such a way so it doesn't throw out the minus even when it's zero.

But then destruction staff is rarer than EDB staff, and destruction staff with high MDM is scarce.
That should compensate for the enormous power of high MDM staff.

... also you only get MDM with staffs, while you can slot up EDB in pretty much every slot.

But haven't you doubled the EDB on EDB Staffs just a few patches ago? Now that the unknown bug is gone EDB damage is halved again so are we back to Square one (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Also you could stock MDM with old Battlecaster gear. Not that this was useful effective or something.
How about we change Owl Phase to MDM Phase? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

On staffs, no. The effect of the suffix was increased.

My domino strikes sometimes hit the monster who is 3 slots away from my target. Did something change in the latest patch? Its not like I dont like it, just being curious :3

Which almost granted us double EDB and made EDB Staffs useful. Now that a Destruction Staff is better in everything they habe become Bazaar food again.

Well I better not complain to much. Once Ratings are gone rules might change (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Because your 2-hand prof raised now you can domino 3. With 200 Prof (I think) You will be able to hit even one slot further (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

too late but nice upgrade and grats all the winners.

I approve. MDM should be be much better than EDB on a staff when you can already stack ridiculous amounts of one EDB type with armor.

To balance this out we should remove all pre nerv sticks from game! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

I'm curious about what will happen to Fox gear once rating kicks the bucket.

I would think INT will have an alternate effect on magic damage unless we are scrapping INT altogether along with rating.

INT will still have an effect on magic damage. What will happen is that the four "rating" stats are being replaced by a couple of "base damage" stats as well as the existing mitigation mechanism.

I think the big question is, we're going to see a big difference in either our "power" and "defense" after the change?

Lets hope a increase in damage (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

At the rate we're going, I wouldn't bet on it.

Another Nerv and maging becomes totally unplayable. As it is right now you cant even do long IWs on harder Difficulty settings.
More nervs and we will fail at normal (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Gosh, this all sounds so familiar.

That's laughable. Tenboro's goal is to make everything increase in exponential decay so that very high level people are barely stronger than people that have played for a month or two or play very lightly. He's just been changing it gradually, and primary attributes are next on the chopping block.

INT will probably work like this:

Every 300 INT adds separate multiplicative 1% bonuses to magic damage.

You guys think pretty negative (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

So it will stay the way it is now which I think is way to hard?

I'm not planning on breaking the magic equation again, but chances are I'll have to change something. It does explain why magic ended up being as OP as it was.

There might be a small increase if we are lucky.
