I think cubixes are fine just like wings on achaea. i think its player made it should be player fixed and if you can't fix it well damn looks like you should start questing or bashing Angels and stuff like i have been doing.
Unknown2005-08-14 19:11:13
Can cubixes be used when off balance/equil? When entangled? When you have broken arms? If so, they should at least be changed to not work under those circumstances.
Also, maybe put a delay on it like teleport. You touch the cubix, wait 5 or 6 seconds, and then it activates.

Don't work entangled, off bal/eq. Also, you've got the be outside.
Sylphas2005-08-14 19:28:31
As far as I know, cubixes are very picky about when they'll work, and a lot of different afflictions stop them.

I like Thorgal's idea about dormancy, but I still think an increase to the regeneration rate would be far better, especially given the increasing number of people reaching a level that requires Astral for any decent experience.
An alternative would also be, as has been said, other bashing grounds of a similar level.

On Imperian you had to FLY (I think) before you could use the wings to get to the clouds making it harder to use for running away.
Ceres2005-08-14 22:17:22
I like that.

I suggested an artifact that could zap people with cubixes (along with other teleport/planar powers), temporarilly negating them. Maybe something along those lines needs to be developed.

And then the whole point of spending 2000 credits on a cubix becomes? oh, right there would be no point at all.
Cubixes are already stopped by damn near, every affliction, webbed, paralysed, prone etc etc.
They don't need a downgrade, you just need to learn to pin people down better.
Ceres2005-08-14 22:42:54
No-one can keep a person permanently pinned. All a cubix user needs is a half-second of not being hindered to escape.
Unknown2005-08-14 22:46:44
Actually, I never encountered cubixes.
I just suggested an artifact to do a "planar anchor" on a victim. In other words, somebody gets zapped, they can't make a quick escape via teleportation or any other such skill. Only would be in affect for a few minutes. Fight or die--or run like hell.
And that artifact would have to cost something similar to a cubix, eg credits.

so what? your complaint is what? you don't have one? get over it, i didn't pay 2000 credits to have some draw time on how long it takes me to get away, considering any mind affliction and paralize stops me from cubixing, and being indoors prone, entangeled of anykind, cubix's aren't the problem players are, players need to fix astral not admins or gods, if you want astral fixed get off your lazy butts stop bitching on forums and go guard astral, anyone seen up there kill. or warn to leave. there, thats your way to fix it. what to lazy to put forth that effort? then astral is gone who cares.
Murphy2005-08-14 23:00:30
damn right Marcalo
I have a better idea though.....how bout you all turn to PK for XP until it gets fixed, then we'll see some serious whining!

Just as a post-note, the artifact idea I had could also be used defensively, as it would prevent summoning/wisping or any offensive teleport power. It's a double-edged sword.
Sylphas2005-08-15 02:32:25
If you up the regen rate of nodes to accomodate more players, you're going to have to do it again, and again, and again, and may as well not even have nodes drain at all, past a certain point. Astral as it currently works is not a feasible long term bashing ground for the game. We need new bashing grounds, or a complete overhaul of how Astral works (even then, more would be better).
Kaileigh2005-08-15 11:36:02
Ok fine if astral is changed to help people bash I demand I get a permanent shiedl hat allows me to hunt and not get hit.
I sit at the node and watch for people. Or demense it and put watch up while I wanter around. Although SOMEONE keeps melding over it >.>
If it is such a huge deal for you guys you should learn to deal with it instead of asking the god people to fix someone's mistake. I don't think demanding something be fixed that has been in place for , has it been a year now? Just because a group of people threw a hissy fit and destroyed the whole thing. Throw one back, kick their butts. There's a reason Astral is free PK.

Give us a list of names, Kaileigh?
The whole reason that it is a problem is the fact that a very small number of people can keep things this way, and indeed get them to this state in the first place. Identifying them is nigh-impossible, as indeed is punishing anyone in a meaningful manner should they be found out.

Ceres2005-08-15 14:18:41
She doesn't like the people who were draining, Marcalo.
Not quite sure why you support "preaching" against yourself.

i haven't been to astral and bashed in about a week, so try again ceres, and when i did bash i think i killed a single obesefessor before i said screw it and went back to prime.
Ceres2005-08-15 17:40:23
That has no bearing on anything that's been said.
The fact is that you were one of the original drainers.
