I was actually thinking of certificates! I was making ig certificates yesterday and then this idea came up. smile.gif

Incriminating letters, certificates, maps (can't do ascii-graphics on a painting), treaties... probably several more that I can't think of at the moment.

Not sure how simple it'd be, but I'd love the ability to order my rezz abilities. I.e., as it currently stands, Ecology Transmigration kicks in before Crow Rebirth (on Prime) and Conglutination (off prime). It would be helpful to be able to change this order. If I'm on Ethereal defending or attacking, and using my familiar to sting, I don't want to be rezzed right in the thick of things with absolutely no defenses should I die.

EDIT: Alternately, maybe the ability to turn on and off the transmigration part while still keeping the Deepbond (stat boots) part? Could keep the 5p to DEEPBOND and get the stat boost, then 1p to turn on the transmigration with the ability to relax it for free at will?

Change "X has bled to death" to "X has been exsanguinated"

Why?

It's awesome, that's why

I know they mean the same thing, but doesn't 'has been exsanguinated' kind of imply that the bleeding was intentional? And I know, it prolly would be, but it just doesn't seem to fit - in my mind anyway, with the idea that someone might suffer an injury and get away, only to bleed out back at their nexus or whatever or even while still in battle, it's the bleeding that kills them. To me, saying someone was exsanguinated brings to mind someone being held down and having the blood sucked out of them by someone/thing else for the purpose of draining blood, not as a byproduct of injury.

But, that might just be my funky brain at work and no one else sees it that way. laugh.gif

I agree with Noola.

Gloves of Concealment hide all jewelry, even earrings. Some people might buy them to monkey with prestige, but for me, it's to keep the ten billion enchantments/runed-items I need for combat purposes from messing up my fashion. So I'm suggesting you can toggle the gloves somehow between the current "hides all jewelry" mode, and a "hides only jewelry with enchantments or artifacts" mode.

Yes please.

Please list the number of empty vials/bottles in POTIONLIST SUMMARY. I know it's not necessary, but it would be helpful and useful!

I would like a runebag that has room for all 24 runes...I know it could be the same as having 4 runebags but having just one single one would be nice to have.

Is there a chance we can get a limit on genderbend in dramatics? Like.. Five times, then you're unable to until the next month? It kinda seems pointless to have the mirror for sale when people are just getting the skill.

genderbend has a drain with it doesn't it?

Also it doesn't count for kephera which is why the mirror was created in the first place
Sylphas2010-05-22 05:15:34
Genderbend is 5p.

Five power and mana drain, yes. But it still doesn't stop people from using it like the mirror dry.gif

Mirror is only once a Lusternian month.

I don't see why this is needed. Changeself doesn't even have a drain or a power cost, yet no one's suggesting it should go away because of the (far more expensive) changeling cameo.

Well, gender is purely superficial in game mechanics terms, so the Mirror and GenderBend are more-or-less identical.

However, ChangeSelf only gives the illusion of being another race. I believe the Cameo actually changes your racial statistics.

It's the same with Genderbend. You appear to be the opposite gender, but you aren't really. There isn't much of any consequence affected by gender (kephera), but it counts differently.

Gender isn't purely superficial: the gender bubble (and mirror) were brought in after kephera were, primarily due to the gender-specific stats that kephera have.

Meteor should do more than one burn level when it hits. Seriously.

That's actually a somewhat realistic feature, which I'm sure is probably quite accidental.

Meteorites picked up immediately (I do mean immediately, and yes, that's incredibly rare) after falling to the Earth are either cold or, at most, uncomfortably hot to the touch. As far as scientists are aware, no meteorite has ever been the cause of a fire.

Of course, this is Lusternia and Astrology is basically magic, and we all want flamin' meteors, so carry on. I just find the accidental realism amusing.
