Is it meant that we aren't supposed to hear shouts and yells when we have sixth sense and are blind and deaf?
Shiri2005-04-01 11:45:52
Yep.
Sylphas2005-04-01 17:16:10
Which is SO damn annoying. If I can hear you in the same room, why can't I hear a shout that echoes off the damn mountains? I have shoutson because I want to hear them, and it'd be nice if faeleaf didn't override that. In Achaea I never really cared, but here I actually would like to know what's going on sometimes.
Shiri2005-04-01 17:18:50
The idea is that you don't HEAR them, you like, sense them. You don't SEE things either, you feel their presence, that's why it's the 6th sense. Otherwise the whole thing would be pointless, wouldn't it? 'cause you'd get transfix gemmed and all the rest of it.
Thule2005-04-01 17:20:55
So you can't sense when someone is shouting then?
Shiri2005-04-01 17:24:54
Nope.
Manjanaia2005-04-01 17:31:34
Doesn't that kinda defeat the object?
Shiri2005-04-01 17:37:46
...no, because you can still sense things at more limited ranges, but sounds that come out of nowhere, you can't perceive them making them.
Elgar2005-04-01 17:44:25
The reason most eat faeleaf is so they would be blind and deaf, so nil's demons can't make you do stuff. The fact you can't sense shouts is because sensing anywhere out of the room would be so overcoming you would just block it out anyway. imagine sensing what hunderds of people are saying at once. You'd need to be one of the divine to handle that, and even they block out most things.

Wow, didn't know that.
Putting all logic aside, it's sad that so many people have to choose between better protection and being prepared and hearing shouts/yells.

It annoys me a ton. Shoutsoff is there for a reason.

utter nonesense, you would sense the aural waves in the room you are in, not the person saying it...
i don't really care one way or the other, but still...
Unknown2005-04-01 18:08:44
It doesn't say anywhere how -exactly- sixthsense works... I think.
Shiri2005-04-01 18:10:27
It doesn't, so that seems like a logical explanation, doesn't it? If you could sense the aural waves it'd be, y'know, hearing. And that would be pointless because then you'd not be deaf, and you'd still get affected by things that affect hearing.
Unknown2005-04-01 18:13:38
Why can't it be just some magical no-explanation-needed feature... *sigh
