While in the past I said no, because it would upset balance, make power differences between players larger. Now I say that probably can't hurt, because of the Artifact store, everyone can get artifacts now, it's not up to the sole mercy of the Qm wether or not you get an artifact. There need to be more artifacts in the store though.

I'm not sure, but I think it's still in the game.

Choices man. At some point in your life you will have to learn you can't have everything you would want.

Happy birthday, !

Thanks, fixed!

Guts takes a Grand Potion. Magellan attacks Eurose.

The healing flail of fragiliziation? It's not a bad idea actually, make a weapon that heals AND gives a negative effect.

Fixed, sorry. No, sorry. They have unions and stuff.

Results of Round Three of the High-Seas-Pirate-Orc-Slaver-Battle. Atramor vs. Blackpeg - Shield Hex Atramor vs. Buggerer - Poisoned Hit (WP: 5 + Level 22 = 27 - 30 = 0 Damage + Fragile & Deadly Poisoned Effects) Boomingham vs. Blackpeg - Meditate/Hit (WP: 9 + Level 19 + 4 Bluehood Powerrr = 32 Damage x 2 = 64 x 2 - 15 SP = 113 Damage Dealt) Nyx vs. Buggerer - Special Damage (Nothing Happens) Skrall vs. Blackpeg - Critical Hit (WP: 20 x 2 + Level 21 = 61 x 3 = 183 Damage Dealt) Bob vs. Bosun - Special Damage (Nothing Happens) Lorenzo vs. Bosun - Shield Corazon Strike (WP: 10 x 2 + Level 20 = 40 Damage Dealt + Weakened Effect) Ignacio vs. Orc C - Miss Mac vs. Bumboo - Shield Riposte/Damage (Level 15 + Level 32 = 47 x 2 = 94 Damage dealt) Christian vs. Orc A - Special Damage (Nothing Happens) Jacob vs. Blister - Critical Hit (WP: 5 x 2 + level 15 = 25 Damage dealt) Rufindel vs. Blister - Miss (Nothing Happens) Ellaria vs. Orc E - Hit (WP: 10 + Level 16 = 26 Damage dealt) Free hits: Barnacle vs. Atramor (No Damage, 22 Counterstrike damage dealt) Orc B vs. Atramor (No Damage, 22 Counterstrike damage dealt) Orc D vs. Boomingham (No Damage, 19 Counterstrike damage dealt) Ship Rat A vs. Nyx (No Damage) And it continues, with Shield raised, Boomingham charges ahead, followed by the crew and his fellow Heroes, Atramor casts his spell over Blackpeg, and hits one of the armoured Orc with his flail, who does not seem to be bothered much, but it causes him to crunch from the impact anyway, and some of the poison dripping from the weapon gets in through the cracks of the armour. The Orc then starts flailing around and comes straight for Nyx, but Boomingham's shield somehow absorbs the blow, Skrall hits the Pirate/Slaver Captain in the arm with a solid hit. Christian and Bob get overwhelmed by their opponents, but Boomingham is quick enough to defend those as well from any harm. Lorenzo, Mac and Jacob display fine swordsmanship skills, while Ignacio almost falls into the ocean when his opponent dodges out of his way. Rufindel almost follows him, but he can hold onto the railing at the last moment, Ellaria does better, and she hits an Orc for good damage with a nice swing of her staff. Some opponents swarm on Atramor and Boomingham, but with good use of Boomingham's shield, they manage to drive them back. Boomingham lowers his shield, looked around, and he did not even know how he did all that. Buggerer and Bumboo take double Deadly Poison Damage.

Quarryman should do the battle order, I think.

Nah, Possible multiple hits go first, or there is damage that is possibly lost.

Fragile? Right away, and remember you have Guardian Angel up.

Ok.

Atramor thinks he can handle both Armorerd Orcs, but he gets smashed around by one of them, while the other takes his mead. Nyx makes true on her threat, and deals some fairly major damage to the Orc Leader. The crew does fairly well in pushing the invaders back, and only Christian and Whales take damage, the latter is knocked out because of it. Rufindel heals everyone in the battle in a moment of clarity, leaving Ellaria to not do anything effective. Skrall fires off a bolt that hits his target. Bumboo takes double Deadly Poison Damage.

Then I arrive at my initial point, why? It's for no reason, not even a dice roll, that the southern group was tallied second.

Why would they be?

There were 4 groups initially, my group, DD's group got through first, and now DD's and Quarryman's original groups get xp, while mine and Flare's groups don't. So until now it is: Mine and Quarryman's group 1x, DD's group 2x, and Flare's group 0. If it was because they were just faster, that would make sense, but it's actually only round 2 in Benji's battle... So.. I'm sure it'll get worked out.

So that one group gets shafted for no reason? I don't think so.

No, How about all four leaders got into a central fight, which would make much more sense, everyone got exp, everyone can be happy?

Of course you can fix it.

What do you mean?

Hate to be nitpicking, but if our battle was tallied first, we would have gotten Experience, while now the other group got it? And damn it Flare. "Magellan, Bombard the Nord with a Fire Bomb. Guts twirls his blades, and takes out his Throwing Knife which he throws at Boreal, from the back row.

As long as it's after Quest 44, I would love to go on a quest of yours. No, actually, Sorcerer and Black Knight both deal more. But it does not matter.

But it's not enough... Perhaps underpowered was the wrong word, I wrote the first bit first, THEN ran the calculations, and the result was actually less of a gap than I thought. I still think the class has become bland, so I would like you to change something. And yes, it's the class with the most gold earning possibilities, because of roll 4 (never said otherwise). I think I'll make Guts into another class. I'll think about it, I can't change until the end of Quest 44 anyway, so plenty of time. But that would be influencing the gold per mugging, which swils said was not the case.
