Re: Riding Skill Influencing horse Stats

I feel that the ebon pass scavengers are actually a good benchmark for what the average strength of a combatant should be given the world's setting. That is, somewhere from 3 to 700 on the high end. Event mobs have to be stronger since their fighting PCs and PCs have always been outliers. Raising al...

Re: Making combat restraint available to everyone

I think given the level of repetition involving CVC, this probably won't have the desired effect. As in, there is no real stakes to a loss whether you die or not so attaching meaning to a loss is very rarely done and even more so enforced. if it doesn't matter whether you lose, how you lose is large...

Re: Two quick non-generalized ability suggestions

Honestly, since both those guilds tend to be the ones leading groups. What they really need is an ability to ensure or drastically increase the movements and melee break rates of everyone in their group so they can follow them out of an engagement.

Re: The Importance of Good Communication

Welcome to why I don't play Maina actively anymore. It's been the same since I first created her. Playing a character with any sense of morality is fundamentally at odds with a game about mass-murdering NPCs for profit and makes you a target to anyone who just wants to kill things in their free tim...

Gas pocket choke time

During mining. The timing for when a gas pocket starts to choke seems to be 8 - 10 seconds. Given that you can be choked for upwards of 50 energy damage in that tick. I can see someone who has low energy falling unconscious through a series of events that has no player agency involved. i have max mi...

Adrenaline rush oversights?

Given the description of the ability here are some knock downs that never trigger the adrenaline rush ability that i thought might be oversights.

knock downs from:
Shield charge.
War horse kicks.
War horse tramples

And some of the time knock downs from leg strikes won't trigger it either.
