Xzean, I'm a decent leathercrafter and can fix your armor. Just let me know if you need repairs if I'm actually on. I know I haven't been around very much but....

Wavebending doesn't directly check against dodge does it? Any insight into how the defense is calculated?

Moldavite is so much cooler than fulgurite. Do moldavite instead! It's a kind of tektite thought to be from from meteors hitting sand... cool looking green glass! Much better than lightning!

Also, remember to stable your horses. There are people who, for some sick reason, derive pleasure from horse murder.

[quote=Landion]An update on this. A successful ambush now automatically counts as as if you had an automatic extra teir of position for hand-to-hand combat skills. This applies to Jab, Punch/Claw, Kick and Grapple. We'll see if this helps out our more stealthy brawlers a bit, I think it will.[/quote...

Just be sure to include a compass. The last map didn't have one and someone (I can't remember who) caused a huge fuss about it.

Stopping armor chink doesn't really make sense since it doesn't act as real armor and thus unless you're wearing additional armor, you shouldn't be getting chinked anyways.

I wouldn't think the size of the weapon would have much to do with the rider's ability to dodge (unless it's weighing them down). It would definitely effect their ability to parry as they're elevated. Lae, I think dodge should be reduced on a mount regardless of weapon size or other contributing fac...

If their horse is running away that's an entirely different story. If they're engaged in melee or even in an "avoid" range it would be much easier because horses only really have one direction of movement (forward) and ARE COMPLETELY INCAPABLE OF DODGING or moving out of the way. Even a we...

I really love it when people quote me completely out of context. Landion, the comment regarding everything not being logical was in reference to mounts providing a bonus to dodge and general defense and was not an attempt to convince you to implement stealth mounts. It's also nice when you're so def...

Truth. Monks have no offensive combat abilities. You do have a couple cool defensive ones though (3 now I think) and some relatively effective strategies against nethrim.

Evelyn, I realize you've worked hard for your skills and I'm not saying you didn't. It's not damage either as I expect to die in one hit to any massive weapon. It's also not just an imbalance I've seen with you, but I've had the same situation occur with Collins, Alexander, and Gad. Riding is an eas...

Grapple can't be executed from hiding can it? I believe I would have to exit hiding to perform it and therefore be exposed to massively increased attack rolls. Thanks for letting me know though, as I was also unaware that this mechanic existed and that you start in slight position for mounted target...

I actually agree with you. There is a rather arbitrary bonus which mounted players now enjoy. Providing stealth mounts would balance that out. There is, however, no equivalent arbitrary bonus that stealth provides. There is a potential pushdown when you attack from hiding. Stealth is great but it is...
