First Hallifax's Ascension and now its conflict quest bugged? Obviously the admin hates us. Haters.

Want to see Project Crucible!

Logs or it didn't happen.
(also I love when Arel posts things on the newsboard. This should be a rave)

But nothing since.

Maybe that is all you get...750p per is quite a bit. We communes and Celest get 100p on turn in. Mag had a special event and now get more for all time or somesuch, and they only get 1000p per supernal.

For more power you'll have to wait for Drachou to fall I think

it would actually drain the butterflies first, and that has been bugged as it should be

Maybe they are waiting so you can have a mini-event like Gaudiguch did when they did the same thing...

You guys are messing with Time and Reality...

Right, the Drachou won't fall, because nothing is attacking the Flame. Project Paradox sent butterflies every 84 mintues, which drained a few motes from the Generator, and once all the motes were gone, the Generator failed, and they got power each time after that.

Why 84?

83 was too short of an interval and 85 was too long.

And 86, as we all know, was right out.

It is a tetrahedral number and that sounds Hallifax like

It is the product of two holy numbers and is considered a perfect number

It is the double of 42

It is the maximal number of regions space can be divided by 7 spheres

It is significant in Indian culture

There are 84,000 afflictive emotions according to Buddha

All in all 84 is appereantly a pretty special number.

How often do Avatars and Supernals and Demon Lords attack one another? I bet if you start from that, and then multiply by five and divide by twelve (or is it the other way around?) you'll see an 84 show up somewhere in the calculation, worked out so that the net damage per time to the shield comes out the same.

That sounds cool, might there happen to be any weird code-increment reason too or did Estarra just think one of those reasons felt really appropriate or something?

EDIT: yeah what Lendren said. Aha.

Good to know.

Sounds good. Can I get a scent quote or a head count of how many people raided Avatars/Supernals?

Just a heads up, your quest is so bugged its hilarious.

All the fleshpots ressed 10 minutes after being turned in. It was brought up on envoys and they were divine rekilled, but the divine did not fix them to attack the butterflies. Or... if math was right... they would have lost their drachou 13 hours from hand in (which has passed). So congrats, not only did the quest bug, you are going to be screwed out of "city victory" by dropping the opposing nexus questee thing.

Yes, I am bitter.... killing fleshpots was my idea and it worked perfectly, I wanted to see results.

*cue response about how the fleshpots were possibly bugged to be slightly easier*.

I'll reply to that so we save time:

We killed the three Avatars with liveforest, Svorai's meld and a lot more defenders (and if my memory is correct, even less people on our side). Vortex had little to no defences while we were killing the fleshpots. The most annoying thing that came from the defenders was Iytha's reality near the end, but we just in the long centre section at that point so all it took was us to regroup and continue on to the next.

The worst part is that when this happened with the spheres, they even used it as part of their mini-event. For us, it's a "oops, here's a bandaid fix" that 1) doesn't give us what we deserved from that raid and 2) doesn't give us any indication that future raids of this nature won't also be bugged.

Oh well. Truth be told, Gaudiguch isn't at its best so it's a bit of a pointless victory anyway.
