Re: Crippling Strike

Alright, this is going to mainly address Althasizor. This segment will be mostly to debunk his post. Numerous times, in multiple posts, I've stated why the ability reduction duration shouldn't last four hours. I did not say to remove it, as per normal, nor did I say to nerf it to an extreme. Forty m...

Re: Crippling Strike

I think the sentiment I share here is what does it benefit a thief PC to have a backstab effect that lasts 2+ hours even at GM? Vs How ridiculous is it that a PC can be stuck doing nothing for 2+ hours because they didn't dodge a sneak attack from an NPC. Not to mention that there are high level th...

Re: Crippling Strike

I'd honestly buff Thieves after nerfing Crippling Strike by adding other feats and maybe improving certain skills they have already, as well as make it possible for PC Wizards to craft wands of almost any spell they know if they're good at it (and add a few more Use Magic Device trainers to the main...

Re: Crippling Strike

A couple of notes about Crippling strike. 1) I can be removed easily as Areia pointed out, but it is code abuse to do so. It is basically taking advantage of something that is removing the effect because of the way Crippling Strike is flagged on the Character Object. I believe it has been bug repor...

Re: Ranged Fighter

Correct. Tested. You do not receive EXP for killing from another room with a ranged weapon. I wish that if you started shooting arrows/bolts at something to weaken it a bit before it can get to you, that you'd get experience for that damage done on the mob's death (as long as you're in the room wit...

Re: Block, Parry, Riposte Work Through Gag

This is actually something I'd like to see, too. I think I just like being able to see how often they're working without having to deal with all the extra stuff that comes with config -gag. But I know not everyone feels similarly. Also, as a note, I'd add dodge to that proposed list and subtract ri...

Re: Is it possible to flee from overworld NPCs?

Well yeah, shooting at it from a distant room that it physically can't access because of hard code would be major abuse. I'm not the kind to abuse that code, but I have run back to the road after running off into a hill giant once before. Still, if there's a way not to die when a group of ogres runs...

Is it possible to flee from overworld NPCs?

As per my topic title, I've had this issue happen a few times, where the NPCs run into the room before I can move anywhere else after fleeing which leads to my character's death because the NPCs can chase far too quickly for it to be possible to flee from them unless you're on a road or flee into an...

Re: Ranged Fighter

Personally, I'd like a quiver that reduces the weight of arrows in it by a large amount.

But yes, being a ranged-only Fighter is pretty much impossible as is. You NEED a melee weapon to fight with eventually, because you'll run out of arrows or break your bow or otherwise.

Re: Ranged Fighter

I'm doing something similar, but I suggest certain homeland feats if you want better saving throws depending on what race you go with to compensate for light armor. Other than that? Expertise feat, maybe Power Attack or Weapon Finesse depending on what melee weapon you go with, because you will use ...

Re: PvP Rules Clarification

I do think that the taking of One item as an option should be reconsidered. In tabletop, you kill something....loot all the shiny....but this is not tabletop. People take pride in their items and gear, many which are unique and many have taken hundreds of hours to get a single one. I believe this w...

Re: Question regarding cestus weapons in-game.

Actually, metal plates would be bludgeoning. "Cestus" as an in-game weapon type holds katars (my "punch daggers" are glorified katars by their description), push daggers and knuckledusters. I have knuckledusters that do piercing damage when they don't indicate anything along the ...

Question regarding cestus weapons in-game.

I've come across two weapons so far that are labeled "knuckles", yet they do piercing damage with no mention of stabby bits in their descriptions. I find this odd since knuckles generally do not have jabbing tips. Is this because they all do the same damage variant since they're the same w...
