  1. "I propose for the F15 Boss Fight we throw wave after wave of disposable soldiers at the boss. General rule of thumb, if they ask you for col within five seconds of meeting you, front line. If they hijack the conversation to rant about their political beliefs, Front Line. If they run around asking all the female players to send them inappropriate pictures, Front Line."

      No sweat. There is no upward limit to the party size for it.

  3. Who wants to fight Sheeptar? I will create a special story for fighting Sheeptar. Must. Fight. Sheeptar. You'll only get the general thread rewards. But, you'll also get to fight Sheeptar.

  4. Is changing the appearances of avatars allowed? My first choice when I signed up was taken, but it doesn't look like that player is active anymore and so, I'm curious.

      Alright... I did it. Change made and now I can post things like this...

  5. What are all of the EXACT rules of the combat tournament?

    If this is an 80 HP thing, rather than a half HP thing then that's fine. But then I should have the chance to change my opening attack to a 12x attack that hits for 92 and accomplishes the same stated goal of ending the fight with a single blow. If I'm not supposed to use the BD roll from the same roll as I took my LD from and if I'm not supposed to attack in the opening post because I won the LD roll then that should be made clear.

    I don't mind losing, if indeed I do, but I and the other players that are new since the summer tournament deserve to have all the rules of the tournament made clear.

      Yeah, Xion is actually closer to Mack's level than Mack is to Tristan's. Mack's at 17, 6 higher than Xion. Tristan's at 32, 15 higher than Mack.

  8. A wild Mack appears. Sorry for poofing on everyone. Between the international job hunt (which includes Zurich [Switzerland], Salzberg [Austria], Okinawa [Japan], Kathmandu [Nepal], and Shanghai [China]), the holiday season, a few major community events that I've had to take part in, and working on a book which I imagine (but cannot categorically state) wouldn't be popular with the players I've been swamped. I'll try to return like a triumphant Caesar from Gaul after Christmas and the New Year.

      The Blades' Council are discussing several options though. We'd be willing, I think, to talk to other guilds as well. Though, I think if we merge, that we will ask for a few small things. The Council discussion is all very tentative at the moment.

  10. Crafting a PERFECT Item now. It can be a SHIELD or a WEAPON. I don't need it, who wants it on commission? Respond here with what you want, first response gets it. Cost: 1150 col or 5 MAT's. First response gets it.

      True, just let me know when you're ready.

  12. As I imagine everyone has seen, the Asterios Monthly Boss Fight is officially under way. No more editing of stats is permitted.

    Violations will lead to a forfeiture of all event-related rewards, so you'd only get your 1 SP for participating.

      The event just started with the GM controled NPC Stentorius giving some info. Xion is up next. Post time is probably 24 HR before your skipped/take DMG.

      I just like helping out. I don't know nearly as much as someone like Mack or Takao does. They along with Ariel have been the ones who have taught me everything.

  13. The new monthly Boss NPC assistant, starting in July, will be considerably more hearty than Stentorius was.

      Perhaps an item needs to be created or something. I'll work on something.

    3. Nikodemus_Blackwood

      Nikodemus_Blackwood

      Essentially, if we wanna take this from a no magic\cannon stand point, then potions should be allowed. 2 times to my knowlege potions were used by one person on another, or attempted to be used in the case of the Kobold boss scene. So, cannon wise it fits. But again, it would be too spammable. A healer could just run around and break potions on people every turn.

       

      I agree with Mack, something needs to be adjusted or an item needs to be made.

    4. Baldur

      Baldur

      Being used on every turn isn't exactly spamable. Especially since You might get 2 too 3 turns in a boss fight ( likely the only place it'll ever get used). You also shouldn't need a skill to use a potion or a Crystal. I guess You could use it to improve the effect of a potion or a Crystal, but that could quickly become over powered. Really though, it should be a one and done skill, and not a ranked one. Maybe it take a heal item and turns it into a hot. Or maybe with first aid yoi can treat a heal item of any quality as perfect tier. Maybe it could let you remove a status effect. Who knows

      Just put something up in the shop thread... and I'll submit the item for approval when I get a minute.

  16. @Calrex and @Ariel - The Crowned Lionmy PM function on the site is being wonky right now... probably because I'm overtaxing the home network at the moment.

    Anyway, you want to blast through Iron Guardian with me real quick... in the next 60-90 min. Should be a cinch, I want the banner. Could solo it if you're not in.

      "Opening up recruitment, loosely, for a guild called "The Inquisition". "

      careful there Mack, we already had a guild named 'The Crimson Inquisition'.... they didn't end that well.

      They were around the time Azure was starting to get big.

      but most don't know about them so a little refresh/repeat would be cool.

  18. In happier news... there will be TWO event sign-ups being posted in the very near future. Keep your eyes peeled. One will be for Front Liners, the other for Low-Levels.

      It says Tier 1 with one slot of either damage for the weapon or mitigation for the armor. That would translate to uncommon quality.

    3. Mack

      Mack

      @Alice Your armor is more important to improving your odds of surviving the Monthly Boss, so I crafted that first. It is currently waiting Mod Approval, then I will fork it over to you in the thread.

      If you want, @Alice, you can go ahead and sign up for the event.

    4. Alice

      Alice

      Yes, that was my intent. The mitigation would allow for me to take some hits and the regen would allow for me to make up for what breaches through it. Will sign up now. :)

      @Mack

      Thanks! :D

      I gotta be honest, it's been so long that I don't even remember what my old stats are...

      If I can find one of my older signatures that lists it, I'll reply at some point this week. I'm atm bogged down with SAO dev work and real life stuff.

      No worries Tristan. If we need to re-start it, I'm fine with that. If you guys want to abandon it, that's fine too.

I think we're selling tickets for 30 col apiece... unless Dom doesn't like that idea... hopefully my comrades don't leave me hangin' or this is going to be a VERY one-sided duel.

      :v I'm pretty sure you can stack alchemy stuff with cooking stuff. I've seen everyone do it and not a single person has batted an eye about it until now.

      Also could we let alchemists, cooks, and the other crafters that make consumables, make double the amount of stuff they make? I honestly feel like we, the consumable crafters, use up the most mats more than anyone. Or if anything double the mats required for the non-consumbale crafters. :v

      Oh wait... just read it. now... SEE!!! ALCHEMISTS AND COOKS CAN STACK. ._.

      but sadly only one for buff. :s
