Kalesh

Use metronome to fly, Baldur. It's the only way.

To answer the question, no, I'd want EXPLOSION! It's much stronger and better and lovely :D

That said that does suck pretty hardcore, Niko... Like, wouldn't that be grounds to have someone placed under arrest? "I'm a terrorist" is pretty black and white and not a funny joke.

Grats, man!

@Rain It's from this cute little anime called Sword Art Online :)

You should check it out!

Nonononono, dangit @Baldur

Also: HA, CANADA GETS IT A-OKEH!

It was right there!

LiSA is an awesome band, I have to agree. It's always a treat when a new anime has their music in the intro for example xD That's where I usually hear them.

Also: HA, CANADA GETS IT A-OKAY

That's basically why I drank a thorn potion, just so I am contributing :P

I noticed, I just wasn't going to start altering stuff that wasn't mine and hoped the one playing Asterios was proofreading xD And bringing it up to Niko wouldn't have done any good as editing after the 24 hour timer might invalidated you altogether or something.

Among other things, yes :P

One cooooould debate she did exactly what the other Knights had tried to preach to Kalesh when he spoke out against the liberal use of the word 'justice'. End one life to save ten, or so forth. When would he have snapped and gone bloody murder on the front lines?

A man out for blood with a unique skill is one of the most terrifying things this game can provide. I want you to imagine it: Heathcliff going on a kill spree with his indomitable offense and defense even without system assistance, Kirito putting his dual blades to work against the common players after all but soloing a floor boss and being one of the strongest even without it.

Though to be fair her going 'SURPRISE, LAUGHING COFFIN!!" right after did kinda tilt things out of her favor on getting reconciled :P It'd take a non-quest redemption to turn that around.

Also fun fact, Kalesh has done Redemption :D ... Not for himself, but hey, SP.

*Wonders if she comes with Tinder included*

It does seem slightly odd that their attack rounds increase exponentially to the number of present players.

Also, to quote SWE, "Group up, and hit it 'til it dies!"

Huh. Well, good to know.

Good thing I always pack a safeguard and a teleport crystal for when THAT stops working. Plus, the hit would have meant 6 damage of thorns on Baras! :D Still, it is nice that 'Still pretty weak' Kalesh doesn't die and cause a time paradox (yet).

That does remind me though, I need to get a tailor to make armor for me...So I can face-tank stuff and do damage while doing it!

(Link has bad words, pg-13 and stuff, warned is you!)

Ooh~! hard mode enabled! Tell me, does that negative mitigation mean being damaged does MORE damage to me?

Pity there is no pickpocket skill, we'd have some Oblivion enchanted armor pickpocket situations. Spoiler: Enchanting your gauntlets with fire doesn't let you do fire damage unarmed in that game.

And then you learn it drops "The Veil of Grief" a powerful piece of equipment that does literally nothing except trigger your brain to release the hormones that make you feel depressed in all the people around the wearer.

I say just follow your dreams. Not everything needs to be about efficiency. I just like to warn newcomers who don't want to do the math beforehand. I did the math and STILL picked it xD

Worst case scenario you make an Alt, give them your excess materials, and make them make stuff for you but otherwise not exist.

Tempt you?

You seem to be thinking I am in any way joking.

This stuff is ambrosia to me.

My body is ready.

Revamping Performer and Fisherman is on the eventual agenda, I'll take note of this thread when that is worked on.

Basically this was the official statement I got back in September when I made a vote to change fishing along with my suggestions. I'd say don't hold your breath on it, but do what you gotta do. It is worth mentioning you don't NEED to pick a profession. :P

I was, and always will be, a Salty Sailor.

In some ways, yes. For fisherman you just need to switch some percentages around (A suggestion I made 8 months ago, QQ) and it'd be fine-ish, even if it's just a clone of chef. Would be cool if it did its own thing though.

Performer is very meh. It's basically a discount alchemist and chef that never works against floor bosses making them debatebly worthless. Get a chef to give you +1 BD food instead of getting a -1 evasion crystal, get an alchemist to make you healing potions and crystals, so forth. And only +1 luck from the Monster Call crystals is pretty negligible. Go to an artisan and get a non-consumable accessory for +2 LD.

The reason I picked fisherman however, and why I am the most experienced fisherman in the land? RP. Forget efficiency, just do what feels right IMO. That said, you can't undo your choice. So that's a thing.

Congrats, best of luck picking your profession and stuff, I see you picked warhammers which not many other people are willing to use, so good on ya!

Just... Uh... as a PSA don't pick fishing as your profession, Chef does the same thing but better. I'll spare you the long version and just say you will fail more than 75% of the time.

OH! Something I forgot to mention about the puppy.

It would have more HP than a regular floor boss.

Enjoy that mental image.

Here is what Google told me, @Baldur http://www.deviantart.com/art/Winter-Fortress-395731351

While I do find that idea interesting, Rain, I am legally obligated to be a smartallack and say that's exactly what Aincrad is to begin with xD

That said a proper labyrinth floor could be interesting as well, I can see the appeal. It would make Reveal and Search & Detect useful for everybody who goes there.

Mostly 'cus I don't want to use a teleport crystal just to get back up xD

THEN AGAIN that would make for an interesting boss scenario. The final boss could be a golem as big, or bigger than the main city golem and they clash, the players on the town would have to fight off minions and possibly even have crafters repairing the golem as it takes damage until our golem is able to win. And then the golem raises it's hand to the ceiling of the floor and grants the players present access to the next floor, acting like an elevator at certain times.

So more of a defense than an offense for a change.

Yeah, I'm still waiting on fairy forests, water wonderlands, the inevitable themepark floor that was put there for the rare concept of 'fun', or a golem controlled city with no NPCs where everything is automated by the golems.

Having actually turned my brain on for the golem idea, why not have the entire floor be one massive city, but the 'capital' is just a part of the city that hasn't fallen to ruin over time and neglect and the monsters are just malfunctioning golems. Like, I dunno if that'd classify as edgy or not, but a land where the previous owners have long since left or vanished out and their machinations are all the remain? I like it :3

Oh!! The floor it leads to could be a floor of nothing but tiny baby animals and light hearted goodness, which we have to murder our way through to succeed on getting to the next floor!

Really twist kind-hearted people's arms on this one.
