Well, there's a lot of room to argue that it's not natural if you don't live in the Serenwilde or Glomdoring, that is...

If we wanted to, we could argue that Day is Night and that Glommies arent in fact following the Night

You can argue everything. And theres nothing wrong with any of the changes that Ive seen, maybe because I have yet to graduate and take a full place in the Lusternia again. Yet still I see a good to everything thats come so far, and one major bad (Lisaera leaving ) but otherwise everything seems peachy.

In accordance with the Blacktalon demands, the Serenwilde formally acknowledges the Wyrd as a new entity, not the Taint or any similar illusion, and as a part of Nature.

Death and pestilence are a part of Nature, but that doesn't mean I'd call a tribe wiping out an entire ecosystem with a magically enhanced plague for their own convenience 'natural'. Death is a part of Nature, but I wouldn't call the reanimated walking dead 'natural'. Hell, the cities are a part of Nature, but that doesn't mean their effect on the world around them is always natural.

Nature can be defined any old way you like. It could be everything that is, only the forests, everything that's not a city, everything thats on Prime plane, etc, etc. Doesn't really limit any viewpoints.

Edit: I can't wait until we get the same opportunity to force Glomdoring into accepting our demands. Hello admitting you corrupt the natural world.

Here we go again. OOCly, we don't know how different Taint and Wyrd are, becuase there is practically no official information out there that has actually been supplied by the admins. Conjecture aside, we just don't know enough about what the Wyrd is. It's simple enough to assume they are exactly the same because there is no information out there to prove otherwise, though that's not exactly a sound scientific standpoint.

Actually, no, our nice builders were kind enough to redesign rooms in Glomdoring to illustrate the difference.

Ok, it seems I have to be more specific in my little trick. I didn't want to make it public knowledge, because it is abusable, and easy to do. But anyways, like I said I think some Mags already know this trick.

You can illusion one of three things, with the first two being the best ones because they're a bit more subtle.

The potion heals and soothes you.

Your mind feels stronger and more alert.

Ah, the soothing bromides help strengthen your ego.

We should smoke Glomdoring then
and a small on my part.

I always thought(way back when I had a Moondancer and they just had healing and hexes and poor -mancers had just runes and dreamweaving) that Glomdoring will come back as a swampy area and the mugwumpw will leave there happy ever after

Mugwumps are 1, overpowered, and 2, a race that lives primarily in cities.

EDIT: Civilized areas doesn't necessarily mean "CITIES." From the description.

Now I must explain exactly why they're effective. Some curing systems (and I know of at least 1 widely used one that does) use these trigger lines to switch off potion balance, so you don't oversip. Now, the line that restores balance is the whole 'You may take another sip of..."

But when using that illusion and you hit em while they are ON potion balance, the balance restore line will never come and you'll never autosip again until it does. No affliction will show in diagnosis, no warning that the autosipper is no longer functioning other than it simply not working. Surged, you have a bit of time to realize that something is weird and can manually fix it if you understand whats going on. All you need to do is drink health. But unsurged, and not knowing what happened...it's dangerous.

So yes. My point. Turning off all autosippers in a room that is virtually impossible to see and fix unless you know specifically what happened, or pure dumb luck sipping manually again....2p? Stupid. Stupid stupid stupid. I think that making illusions customizable by players was not well thought out, because if you give that much control to people, someone's going to find a way to abuse it.

Granted, it won't work on EVERYBODY, but with they way autosippers are designed, it's likely that it will affect a large proportion of the basin.

It's not an affliction, not something you can just diag away. Reset would work, sure. But then you have to diag again to get all your real afflictions back, wasting valuable time in which you're getting messed up even more. Not to mention the time it takes to recover health, mana, and ego levels when the sipper starts working again. Too much valuable time that should be spent elsewhere, like curing crippling afflictions or laying into your opponent.

Well, now everybody know's how to do this trick. Enjoy. Hopefully enough people read this so they know how to fix it too...

Wow, just wow. I've never heard of such a poorly written autosipper in my life.
