Well, besides eating some sparkleberry (that anyway I couldn't outrift and probably wouldn't make difference). See any possible improvements? And howcome I didn't have punctured leg at the bolded point?

Or should I just get way more tanky? I had 4.4K health.
Shorlen2006-09-28 21:14:40
Where were you parried and stanced? Did you autoparry/autostance your legs when they became very wounded and were clearly being targetted? Why does your DIAG handling script not clear all afflicts it doesn't pick up from the DIAG? You also didn't seem to writhe nearly quick enough from the impale, and you didn't cure paralysis for quite a while...
dayan2006-09-28 21:20:40
Hrm, I tought I can't change parry while paralyzed, right? And I obviously can't focus body while pinned, I did focus right after I writhed off. What is wrong with diagnose? It did clear afflictions seems to me (I gag most of the prompts, bad for debugging sad.gif but spam is a bit worse). Could you point it for me? I did have some strange problems with diagnose more then once.
Unknown2006-09-28 21:50:55
Rebounding would've helped there. Smoke faeleaf as soon as you writhe free of the blade. If you can tumble, you also had a window of opportunity to tumble away while not pinlegged. And 4.4k health had better be enough, 'cause I have much less than that. glare.gif

I can't believe you gag your prompts. They're so... important. It's not what I'd cut out trying to get rid of spam!

EDIT: Blah, I misread that. You were trying to smoke myrtle.
dayan2006-09-28 21:55:27
I do have prompt on the bottom always but it doesn't remain in logs (I wish they would). Rebounding was disabled along with few other things (pipes weren't light either I think), that's the problem when you get jumped biggrin.gif. Still thanks for help (both of you), I'll have to think about prompt yet. I used to have a debug file open to output afflictions, prompt status and such to compensate what I lose in log.

I think the big thing though is that you aren't reflexively writhing from impales... Or so it seems to me.

Oh, and if you want to cut down spam, replace your clot script with something that does #send {clot} whenever you bleed, and #gag;#send {clot} whenever you get the "You clot.." message. Then, gag the "You do not bleed" message.
dayan2006-09-28 22:08:14
Hrm, that is bug I got with diagnose before a strange one (works perfectly in when called from system but not when I call it with alias I think). It was myrtle pipe. I do all my healing on prompt that is why writhe looks a bit late, shouldn't be more then a fraction of a second. Thanks.Still, since that wouldn't change much then, I guess I just need to get more tanky and probably still die if jumped by someone artied (not a really big surprise biggrin.gif ).

EDIT: Hrm, maybe I found that bug.

Make sure all of your triggers that are supposed to fire on a prompt are set to fire on prompts and not on newlines. If you use zMUD, then in the trigger properties, you have to uncheck the "newline" box and check the "prompt" box to do this.
Ixion2006-09-28 22:33:10
Don't writhe after you have been rended, or already writhed off- System problem.

Your focus body curing needs to be faster.

When fighting Flaca, parry/stance legs to start off.

You could have easily tumbled out in time if you kept your wits about you.

Be sure to bug engage in a detailed bug report. "Flacarealah lashes out at you as you turn to flee." is a bug as you did not leave the room.
dayan2006-09-28 23:18:41
I removed 'newline' from prompt and kept 'prompt' option. Maybe it will improve things a bit.

Uh, I sent writhe before rend. That was a bit of usual lag.

QUOTE

Need more lessons smile.gif . Hard choices but probably I'll need to put some in. For now I help myself with allheale a bit (unluckily it cured stupidity instead).

QUOTE

I keep stance legs, hadn't have time to change parry. Nobody answered, can I change parry while paralyzed?

No tumble yet sad.gif

Hrm ... I did notice that but I tought it was ment to be like that. I'll try to bug it and see.

Thanks again!

Get tumble! It's such a key component of escaping a group of angry people wanting to beat your hind end.
dayan2006-09-29 10:04:36
Oh, I have seen it many times from you on Celestia and Water biggrin.gif . Yup, as soon as I trans Kinghthood I'll most likely go for it.
