    and while you're at it, maybe someone should disable JOIN QUIZ when there's no quiz so Raykel won't have a free raksha band :<

    Sudden rememberance dawning upon you, you quickly move through the surrounding
    area to your memorised location.
    Antioch Shuk.
    The stars twinkle in the clear night sky. This has been marked as holy ground.
    A sewer grate looms darkly beneath your feet. A whimsical hammock of midnight
    blue with dangling moon and star beads rests here, swaying gently. A small sign
    points into a market stall. Some rose petals lie here in a small pile. The shop
    directory of Antioch rests here on a marble pedestal. An iron lantern has been
    hung here on a single bamboo pole. A truesilver pike with the shrunken head of
    Samiel has been erected by Iluv. An intricately carved muamrite guard's spear
    lies abandoned here. The leaves on this stalk of corn have begun to curl and
    brown, the large ears drooping along the tall stalk. Arching up towards the
    sky, with a curtain of shifting light hung within it, the Lunar Pylon stands
    proudly here. There are 5 gobbet of wraith essences here. A brass and emerald
    engagement ring has been left here. There are 3 festive sparkling giftbags
    here. An imposing red wolf treads silently in a circuit, stalking back and
    forth. A young lamiran maiden stands here in an unassuming pose, wreathed in
    the scent of brine. A lithe yellow jaguar with black spots prowls the area.
    There are 2 keen-eyed falcons here. An elite Muamrite archer is manning a
    cannon here. He has one-hundred and thirty-seven cannon balls. A short kobold
    worker bustles here, busy with something. There are 15 elite Justicars of the
    Shah here. A shaggy grey mustang roams warily nearby. A fearsome lion prowls
    around here and greets you with a warning roar. Heated breath flaring his
    nostrils, a massive warhorse stands here imperially. With a wild look in his
    eye, a feral paint stallion stands heatedly here as he stomps and paces
    recklessly. A vicious smoke-blue stallion stands here, pawing and stomping
    ferociously at the ground. There are 2 baleful kelpie stallions here. Eyeing
    you defiantly, a black sturdy mare trots here. A plump orangutan happily turns
    cartwheels here. The ever-shifting visage of Ichimoru, Aspect of Moradeim, is
    here. He wields a mithril broadsword in his left hand and a lunar shield in his
    right. You see a sign here instructing you that WARES is the command to see
    what is for sale.
    You see exits leading north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest,
    west, northwest, and in.

    A cannon ball races in from the southwest, rips through Iluv's body, and
    streaks northeastward.
    Iluv takes a drink from a damask steel vial.
    H:418/445 374/418 [-b db] T:10:29 XP:9.56
    Iluv quickly eats a toadstool.
    H:418/445 374/418 [-b db] T:10:29 XP:9.56

    Learning to lead well will take time and many teammate deaths! But it's an awesome experience when you field a good team to victory.

    Oh Ahkan, you say the funniest things.

    02:17:51.536 Elizabell points an imperious finger at Cassius.
    02:17:51.537 The Mark of Cadmus on Cassius's body flares briefly.
    02:17:51.538 Elizabell throws some red bone dust straight into Cassius's face, causing him to choke on it as he
    02:17:51.538 inhales.
    02:17:51.539 Cassius backs away and eases off.
    02:17:51.540 Cassius produces a choking sound and collapses to the ground, overwhelmed by the bone dust.
    02:17:51.541 Elizabell has slain Cassius.
    02:17:51.543 You gasp with the realization that Elizabell has reached the pk level of Illustrious.

    All hail, the mighty Zerg.

    2:07:31.371p  The crystal floating around Kryss turns sickly green.
    Kryss conjures a stream of elemental water and sends it streaking towards you. You lose your equilibrium and your mind feels vacant as you stare absentmindedly into the myriads of reflections forming upon the surface.
    You are afflicted with disruption.
    You are afflicted with confusion.
    You feel yourself fully attuned to the water element.
    Kryss conjures a magickal stone and sends it crashing against your head.
    You are afflicted with lethargy

    2:07:33.929 Kryss focuses her gaze upon you and a look of utmost concentration appears on her face. The sound of rushing water echoes faintly in the distance.

    2:07:39.127 As Kryss's concentration reaches its peak, the rushing of water intensifies and a violent stream of elemental water suddenly bursts into the room, and you find yourself surrounded by water and unable to breathe. Despite your valiant attempts to struggle, the relentless surge proves stonger and you succumb to it, the world around you fading into blackness.
    You have been slain by Kryss.

    2:07:41.716 You have regained equilibrium.

    More proof that attunement needs to move to the spark model, though that proof's potency is something similar to warning a corpse that his wife is planning to shoot him. We shouldn't have let attunement through, because it is an inherently unworkable system.

    AUTOCURING PRIORITY <name> <1-20>

    You lose nothing by placing a higher priority on confusion against a Mage. Furthermore, Ozreas was curing Nausea over Impatience and thus lacked that balance all together. I have already mused on the fact that Lethargy needs a look but let's not forget that changing one's own curing to suit the situation goes a long way. You eat ginger to stop a brainmelt, mandrake to stop hypochondria, butisol before applying salves and so on and so forth.

    And you notably do not refute the fact that attunement is nigh incurable? With confusion, lethargy, and any other present afflictions from your onslaught (I count 4 by the looks of his eating), how is he expected to reach the gooey center of afflictions that severely augment your offense? Yes, water attunement is not cured by nightshade, but in what world is it reasonable to expect a player to willingly leave high risk afflictions on themselves to cure other portions of your offense (which, by the way, sounds absolutely backward)?

    Attunement is unworkable not because of fringe cases like 'he doesn't cure right', but because once you get started, there's no way to stop you from rising meteorically in strength. This is only exacerbated in teams.

    The priority is actually lethargy, to reduce the impact of this very situation, but since nausea, addiction, and lethargy all share the same cure, I can see from whence the confusion (ha) stems. Switching it up will likely help in the future, but it does not change the fact that the ability to create this type of situation using a grand total of four spells is a bit, as the kids are saying, "off the chain".

    It's not left to right, it's a random cure from that #1 prio line. Time to remake it!
  • OzreasOzreas Member, Beta Testers Posts: 235 ✭✭✭✭
    I noticed I was out before the responses loaded, so I tried to quickly cover my tracks. Too slowly, unfortunately! Thus is my ineptitude revealed to the interweb, I fall on my sword in shame. 

    @Zakhar: None of the other afflictions from priority #1 were present at the time :S

    The design is flawed. I really think 4 levels of herb based attunements will never be balanced when you have access to all four elements. You don't even have to afflict intelligently, because the attunements will always be cured last and you can refresh them next hit and pick up the attunement bonus. 

    Inhibit (Shamanism) is a good skill. It's slow as hell (2.5-3.7s) and gives two really badass afflictions. If you don't cure that (by virtue of good planning on my part) it disrupts you. A wytch has no way to give lethargy and confusion without inhibit. To set up inhibit being good, I have to be good.

    Not for mages! Their afflictions are entirely separate and predicated on the level of attunement, which as we've already established, is kind of a moot point. High attunement isn't a big deal when you're spam trolling confusion/lethargy/disrupt. Basically, the problem here is that the balancing factor that makes inhibit workable is not present in mages. The underlying mechanism of herb based attunements (totaling 16 afflictions, haha) is flawed.

    This gets worse when you can't let yourself build up any high degree of any attunement, but you can't avoid letting it happen.

    Also, we have to factor in the "Meat Puppet Effect." This was established in late 2006 and remains true today. You present Arlith with two class options. Whichever class Arlith picks and plays, there is something wrong with it. There is an explot, an imbalance, or something that makes that class unnecessarily easy. Find it. Fix it.

    Replace Arlith with Kryss and the two classes were Summoner and Mage. Proof is in the pudding and pudding is delicious.
