PLANAR - CONDUIT

Syntax: CONDUIT
If you find a node of power upon the Astral plane, you can link directly to its wild energies and channel the power to your home nexus.




Should be faster (more power per pulse) than Link, but not as fast as Cone or Cosmic Link. Place this somewhere fairly high, to provide more 'worth' to higher levels of Planar.

Kinda sorta pretty very really kicks guardian/wiccan guilds in the teeth. This is one of the very few things that are meant to be unique to Guardians.

Actually, warriors get it in communes.
Kiradawea2010-02-22 20:47:55
Oh yeah. It's tied to the totem skill isn't it?

Either way, Guardians have so little unique going for them, I really don't want them to lose this as well.

Similarly, why do so many of the designs cut off? There's clearly room for the whole appearance, since there are 24 dashes/asterisks beyond the cut-off point of the appearance - which kicks in at a seemingly arbitrary 33 characters.

Yeah, this is making my little database a bit tedious because I sometimes have to go back and check if I've botched it.

Maybe I just need someone to read it over because I'm so used to reading it. laugh.gif Oooooh Xiiiiiieeel!

Derp derp. :3

Do need a linky though. And I need to update my own.

Not forcing you but it's much appreciated ( wub.gif ), and I'll pass one along when I have all the designs up.

Honestly, if it was 2p per link (just like normal linking), but went straight to the nexus instead of your reserves, people would probably still use it. Even if it was the same slowness as cone.

Can bottles go back to 1 gem comm per, please. Stocking pretty-looking bottles for sale kinda bites. sad.gif
Lendren2010-02-24 13:50:49
They should have gone to two so they cost comparable-to-or-a-little-more-than a vial, but Estarra overcompensated and went to three, which makes them way out of line. I don't think we'll get them back to one, but maybe if we ask for two, we might get a deal.
Xiel2010-02-24 16:33:25
Either or works for me. But stocking my shiny teas and booze as a chef in all my pretty bottles (not to mention glasses which got bumped up to 3 gems too sad.gif) causes an ugly shift of pricing. sad.gif
Aoife2010-02-24 16:43:03
Given that a vial now costs something like a third of what a bottle costs, one gem comm would make sense. suspicious.gif

Would be nice for Forest/Wyrding to change the environment like Mages do. For instance, change it to "forested urban" and "wyrden freshwater" or something similar instead of always being "forest" or "wyrden woods". I like to be able to tell the real environment when I'm reading room descriptions and whatnot.

The purpose of environment change for Mages is to prevent demesnes from being broken by other mages or druids. Druids have saplings that serve the same purpose.

You're misunderestimating.

...That isn't what I'm talking about at all. I'm not talking about illusions terrain. I'm talking about the fact that when you SURVEY a room it says "tainted urban" or "cloudy concordance". However, instead of being "forested urban" it justs shows up as "forest".

A short idea: How about having some way to get out of a temporary dock? Even if it's a huge aetheric beast that you can kick to die and pray (or conglutinate), being stranded on a temporary dock in aetherspace really sucks.

What about a dictionary of certain words in each language? Like, We all know that Ur is orclach for death, But what about other words in other languages? I usually say Kkrelk is Merian for Oppressed one, But No one really knows any of the languages...

Temporary docks should collapse and kill you eventually. D:
