Critical Hit Runes:
- These runes allow you to get extra critical hits when bashing.
Level 50 persons get critical hits about 1.6% of the time; at level
65 this rises to 6.4%, and at level 80 it rises to 16.6%.

It just made me curious. What is the crit rate at demigod?

Anecdotal evidence pushes me toward 50%. Although I do remember Iasmos posting his crit rate as hovering near 50% and I assume he has a level 3 crit rune, so maybe mid 40s.
Gleip2011-01-20 00:54:18
I remember seeing a list somewhere that the crit rate for level 100 was actually 51,xx%.
Rika2011-01-20 00:56:42
40%

Question: Does ego/charisma affect psionic equilibrium speed at all, other than the id channel?


Charisma has no effect on Telepathy. At all. Seriously, how counterintuitive is that?

Psychicvampirism is a flat percentage, mindblast is inherently bad and based entirely on INT. There's nothing stopping telepaths from just going as tanky races, since everyone kills with psyvamp anyways. Id's speed is just based on your current ego compared to max ego, which is why you usually open with it in combos.

And oh yeah I think I have a PM I need to respond to, oops. :X

What do you do about this when there are no guides logged in? I've always understood that it's not our place to handle that sort of thing, but what do you do when those who are supposed to can't?

Fiddlesticks is not a forbidden name-- just not a good one. It's ok to gently tell them they might find life difficult with that name, but you can't tell them to change it.

You don't issue them for blatant rules violation, that's been pointed out pretty clearly. Even when the name is at least as bad as that. losewings.gif

I've been told that mindblast's damage is also partially based on max ego, designed for synergy with hivemind. If it is, it's a tiny effect.

You go on with your life, because, in reality, it doesn't hurt you one bit there's a furrikin running around with the name 'Fiddlesticks' (which is a totally adorable name) - and a guide will handle it when they're about to do so.

Astral critters are good. Dio mobs as well.

Looking for some exact (or best approximation) numbers here for reference:

How much bleeding is stopped by:

- 1 clot
- 1 chervil

?

Also, can someone give me the tick times and total times for the following delayed insta-kills? :

- Judgement
- Decapitate
- Chasm
- Soulless
- Dirge/Bardoon/Requiem/Threnody

and any insta-kills that currently escape me?

Thanks a lot!

Because if your first experience in a new game was an angry player pointing the finger about a rule you hadn't clocked, you'd be a bit sod this, qq.

Names are rarely urgent.

damn. what's happened to my signature thingy and how do I get it back.
Shiri2011-01-20 14:02:22
I still see your signature thing. You might have turned it off accidentally in my controls up at the top.

Clot removes 20 bleeding for 60 mana. That's about all I know, unfortunately.
