Re: Answers to some Clok revival FAQs

Hi,

I am really terribly sorry to be asking this while you are already so busy, but is the email to contact staff still support@clokmud.com? I figured I would include this in the FAQ thread since it is a question which might come up more often in the future.

Re: elemancy channeling flavor messages

Thank you Rias, that was so fast! Here are a few of them, Artus. You will have to get the druidry, cryomancy, and hydromancy ones from someone else, I am afraid. Aero An invisible air current circles your hands as you open an aeromancy channel. (This one is sneaky for onlookers, they see nothing) Ge...

elemancy channeling flavor messages

Hi, I was wondering, are the messages for opening channels going to stay as the colorful ones they are now, or will they change to the newer versions that were on CLOK, where they appeared as manifestations of the elements surrounding the hands? Not that I dislike these ones, to be clear, they are b...

Re: The Importance of Good Communication

Addressed equally to everyone: The last thing I want is to make it feel as if there is some bar to entry to writing or sharing here, strictly defined or self-imposed. Please do not feel this way--the most I ask is to try and be polite in posting. As previously stated I do not want to have any kind o...

Hi, Thank you for your impression of the game, Eliza. It is sad to know it was poor enough for you to start a forum account and share it in this way, but maybe here is the kindest place to have done so. Should you have any advice or ideas to make things feel more friendly, it would be nice to read t...

The Importance of Good Communication

hi, Given the recent state of things, in-character, out-of-character, and possibly even somewhere in between, it seemed helpful to start this thread. There seem to be a handful of recurring concerns, manifesting in different ways recently, and maybe even not-so-recently. If you would like to partici...

Re: Why I Stopped Playing CLOK

Hi, While it is true a significant number of semi-consistently frustrated players and reticent developers may be symptoms of something deeper than one or two devlogs, it feels a little unfair or not doing them justice to poke an older issues thread. Maybe there are echoes of it buried here, but in m...

Re: Additional Weapon Specialization Abilities, with examples

They are nice ideas! As much as I would love a hurled weapons specialization, the last time it was mentioned there did not seem to be any intentions of adding it, but it is still a worthwhile suggestion. Some of the concern seemed to be they were not designed as a primary focus, but maybe if there i...

A Story of the Box God

This was entirely spontaneous, mostly sleep-deprived-written and silly, but hopefully at least a little bit funny to read. You dubiously say, "Oh no, one more of these famous pendant discussions." Speaking to Aegeus, you curiously ask, "What was it about?" Aegeus says, his voice ...

Voice Once or thrice, the topic of voice has arisen here in the forums, on Discord or chat, or so forth. A writing voice is a uniquely powerful tool? Material? For expressing demeanor and intent.

Re: Working Down Lessons for Capped Skills

Hi,

This may already be on the very long to-do list, somewhere. Jirato said it should not be very difficult to solve, but between life and accounts it must have been lost in some dark corner of the trivial updates box.

do elemancy staves and wands have runes?

Hi, Sorry for the specificity of the question, but are there any discernable markings on elemancy staves and wands which set them aside from regular wands or wooden rods? The shop descriptions state they are 'imbued', but the items themselves have no written description, so I was only wondering if t...

arrow deflection and hurled weapons

Hi! I am cluttering the forums with a suggestion again, but hopefully this one is not so long. Arrow deflection can slap away arrows and stones from bows and slings: it seems maybe feasible it could similarly deflect small thrown weapons, like knives of varying lethality, hurled stones, snowballs, d...
