I honestly don't know where the cubixes drop off on prime/ethereal - but I don't think ANY of them are in etherwilde/prime wilde, or any of our villages.  So I'm failing to see the point.

Oleanvir, Isle of Light, Balach Swamp, Avechna, Klangratch shrine, Bubble over Oblivion (Faethorn), some random spot on Nil/Celestia that's not guardable, one spot on each sphere of astral.

Forget the other three exits on Prime. sad.gif

Ialie is a customer just like any fighter is a customer. They both spent that $600 just the same. What if f I spent $7.99 on a book to read and you bought it just to be a paperweight. We both spent the same 7.99 and we both have the same book so the bookstore should treat us the same.

And to keep in context with this comparison, Amaru and Ceres are the leaders of the group of born-again christians picketing outside the store throwing rotten fruit at people and shouting ridiculously stupid slogans who buy the book because it has one instance of cursing in the middle of it.

And that's why Ialie's nerf would be just as nerfing as Marsu's nerf. There is a problem with cubixes. It was Ialie's decision to purchase a cubix - IRE policy is that everything is fluid, and changes can and will be made. She bought a cubix in spite of this. If they make it so she has to wait 3-4 seconds after touching her cubix in the fulcrux, or 3-4 seconds when she leaves the fulcrux, she should be happy it wasn't worse, suck it up, and move on.

It is EXACTLY the same as skills. You don't trans necromancy, Lich get nerfed, and you want a refund. Sorry folks, doesn't work like that.

Dang. Cause, really, I wanted a refund two weeks after the realm opened and I realise the Celest skillset sucked complete ass compared to the early necromancy overly-tanky-mofo stuff.

I don't see a problem with a short equilibrium loss when leaving the fulcrux. No more than say, 2 seconds.

No, they're yelling because it contains the word "Darwin" in reference to the city but they were told of it and now it's evolutionary scum that's attempting to DESTROY THE CHILDREN HATE HATE SATAN!

Thank you, Gorokan.

At least someone can see reason.

I disagree. You're using some sort of commercial right as if it's a universal moral law. This is Lusternia, not America. We kill over vague insults, then eat the bodies. In my damned superior opinion, the one who bought the book to use as a paperweight is a retard with no right to the book whatsoever. He should be arrested and forced to hand over the book, which should then be donated to a school in Ethiopia where the children need to use it for its purpose.
Ceres2005-08-29 12:32:53
Actually, that's a moot point, because as Ialie is not a fighter, she can still freely use her cubix to travel to Nil and Celestia in just the same way.

The only "nerf" she will receive is the 2-second eq loss on leaving the fulcrux, which will barely impact her at all.

Those screaming about nerfs and refunds are just being melodramatic twits, quite frankly.

Well instead of that, how about let us place guards at the cubix entry points so instead of nerfing it, we can just let them get raped by guards when they enter?

Hmm...if that was my other option I'd choose the 2-3 second delay leaving the fulcrux because I often accidently walk the wrong direction..and that would stink.. sad.gif

Shameless bump.
