While the damage range for wooden swords may be low, they may also be less sensitive to change in damage. If you're planning on looking for finer changes, don't expect to be able to do this getting hit by a low damage weapon. Of course, this would depend on how big the hydro shield damage reduction ...

Have you tried the logging camp? The archers there have some decent stealth (I'd estimate around 1500+ although it's hard to get a hard number), in case you haven't tested that area.

Town post board and a "kill on sight" board (kind of like a wanted poster but with "dead" instead of "dead or alive")

I completely agree with giving traders advantages. Perhaps a fair way of doing this would be to have the degradation less severe with a maximum. So for example, for masterful quality armor with a 15% bonus, you would degrade in 1% increments down to 10% (the equivalent of superior so you could only ...

Anyways, back to leatherworking repair.

EDIT: Also, welcome back Kian. So great to have you around again. You were missed.

Apologies in advance for this post, but this is a serious topic and I'd prefer Nootau not divert it and I saved this log for a rainy day. Please see below conversation with your alt, created soley for trolling purposes: [FROM Masao (OOC)]: I am, that's the most amusing part about it. I like to argue...

Nootau, traders already have a higher chance to produce masterful items along with a variety of other perks. They should not be the exclusive means to repair an item without ruining it. There aren't even any master leatherworkers that I know of. That being said, there's currently no way to safely re...

Additionally, self-repair of player crafted items is being penalized while store bought items can't degrade in quality. Why would I want to craft my own? It will end up the same as a store bought (which does not degrade) after a few repairs anyways. I see why repairs are necessary, but I don't see w...

[quote=Ardor]I haven't really repaired all that much but none of the things I did repair degraded in quality. Maybe that is a Trader perk? I have the master ability associated with the things I did repair.[/quote] Yes Ardor, this is a trader perk. If you have the master ability it won't degrade. For...

It just makes me want to not wear armor or get everything done by NPCs and wait the 24 hours. It doesn't make me want to continue to leathercrafting. If I could repair myself without a high chance of degradation or could later have a trader fix the change, I would be more inclined to do it. It's pro...

So I've been getting armor degradation almost every time I repair. I understand the point of this, but if I'm capable of making masterful and exquisite pieces fairly regularly, I don't see why I would be knocking a masterful piece down to an average after a couple of repairs, nor in reality at all. ...

[quote=Kiyaani]I agree for wilderness, but with regards to cliffs, if the cliff is up you wouldn't be able to see. If the cliff is down then yea... it would be nice to know =/[/quote] I think it is reasonable that we would be able to peak over before fully climbing. Walking blind into a room with 3 ...

awww.

Can the peer command be updated to allow up to peer through any exit including wilderness, cliff, road, etc. It's sometimes nice to be able to know what's lurking in the room you intend to walk in to (especially if it requires leaving hiding).

[Forest] (OutWldFrDt) [semiarid] Coniferous trees dominate the area. Tall mountains rise abruptly to the east split by a narrow canyon. The dim light lessens your vision slightly. The area is mostly quiet. You also notice the corpse of Lysse (x5) and a shadowy black orb. It is cold. The area is fill...

Ardor, I'll sell you some nethrium gauntlets for 200k that you can experiment with.

Even so, it seems as if he'd like to try to experiment with making nethrium alloys. I would be inclined to believe that smelting any metal with celestium or nethrium would be a waste.

ANNOUNCEMENT: No it doesn't.[/quote]

Landion fills me with lies.

You've seen people wielding it, Ardor. It can be held under the right circumstances.

Also, sunsteel and nethrium are of conflicting natures. I would doubt the two could ever coexist in a single alloy.

I was joking Rias. Didn't mean that to come across wrong. I suppose my recent discovery about the molecular structure of nether will have to be prefaced with "According to scholars" if repeated by a GM. I do think it helps to guide our suggestions/ideas, however, if we have a good understa...

Semi-Welcome back then!

[quote=Nootau]Yes I did mean armored, my mistake. Though I would think that both cryomancy and pyromancy would take more than one cast but that also brings up a good question.. How hot is pyromatic flames? How cold can a cryomatic cast make something?[/quote] This is a great question, but it hinges ...

Here's the story this brought to mind by the way. Rias called it an Arad classic...
