Midkemia shows the rank + % for abilities you haven't obtained if you try reading the AB file:


2379h, 175e, 4463m xb A:50% -ab psionics mindmelt
You do not have that skill, but will learn it at 100% into the Transcendent skill rank. See HELP
SKILL RANKS to learn more about skill ranks.

PhantasmalKiller:

Allow private cartels to buy and sell existing cartel-created designs with each other.

Say Cartel A's robe design is the rage of the season, Cartel B offers them a large sum for the rights to the design, transferring ownership of the design (its production rights) to Cartel B. I think it would add a definitely interesting element to the economy.


This would be awesome, especially for things like Person A has a design for members of their order, but then decides to leave the order, so Person B, who is also a member of the order, can buy that design to keep it in order hands. (Granted, some orders have order-owned cartels.) Same thing could apply to family designs that are in a cartel owned by someone who left the family.

An idea simple in its explanation, albeit more complex in its execution: Expand the Water Plane. You can currently have merbloom growing in 24 rooms that I know of. That means 24 merbloom per hour. It is used in allheale (2), frost (4) and vitae (5). It is probably also used in various recipies, meaning there's a bigger demand than supply for it.

Alternatively, rework the requirements for those potions slightly.

Just making it grow on the other half of the Water Plane would go a long way. Maybe not on the river but in the lake.
Ssaliss2012-01-25 01:04:05
Yeah, making it growable there would increase it by almost half (adding another 21 rooms).

Can dracnari get the ability to at least fire a forge using their racial fire ability? It'd be really cool RPwise.
Xiel2012-01-25 04:03:30
Better to just enable whatever mechanics that require a tinderbox to be done by any level 50 dracnari. I vaguely recall folk asking to be able to light pipes with this racial ability anyway.

I have ideas! :D

When you use the severing scythe, allow acquisitio/yoyo/etc to pick up the corpse immediately. Makes more sense than allowing beheading while you are holding it, either works though.

Allow the following to be added as modifiers to a kata form at 0 mo cost
* Shofangi Headbutt - headbuttfirst, headbuttlast. To set whether you headbutt at start or end of a form.
* Nekotai Scorpionspit - Spitfirst, spitlast. Again, whether you lead or end with it. (You must have a poison in your system prior to using the form or the spit gets ignored.

Make raze usable when you have ninini on hands. Currently it says you cant raze with your fists bound, but you cant use jakati to remove shields while they are bound, a shield literaly stops all forms, so ninini will never see use.

Create "instant win" games at the lottery houses, they have set prize rates and are always available. Prizes are in credits, whether bound or not is a judgement call. On one hand you could have people able to sell to enhance market.

Make foresight identical to acrobatics dodging. Make it so chance to proc goes down if you just dodged or if you just attacked.

Allow ignite to remove windwalls.

Change the syntax to use ignite to point ignite at wall and it will remove whatever wall is in that direction that it can remove.

Make the battering ram better at removing stonewalls.

(Yes I had a ton of ideas recently!)

Allow DOFF to accept additional arguments, such as DOFF CROWN or DOFF HAT .

While it used to default to the top layer of headwear, it seems to always be defaulting to my hat now, which is -extremely aggravating- and junk.

Make Shamanism Cloudburst function like Nature Rain on all effected rooms.

Specs for new bard guilds? Please? Pretty please?

I think he means racial specs. Like... SongTrill and DrunkNari.
Unknown2012-01-26 17:06:54
Triller?
Ssaliss2012-01-26 17:17:50

Triller?

Do a lucidian spec. Lucidians are awesome....
Casilu2012-01-26 19:00:36
Lucidians can't be bards. If they hit the right note, they'll explode.
Enyalida2012-01-26 19:08:52
And? BAAAALLLLESTONE!
Casilu2012-01-26 21:21:18
Do you really want kamikaze lucidians?
