This hefty two handed weapon's handle is wrapped with the rawhide pelt of a particularily vicious wolf fought by David Black. The spirit of the wolf inhabits the blade imparting accuracy and ferocity to the wielder. Not only imbued with the wolf spirit, the harrowing spirit of halloween, Jack, is also imbued into the blade as i

After the small talk with his new customer, Macradon would venture back down into his smithy and work on what he had been paid for. The wolf mask. He just had to finetune what he had been doing before, but making it as perfect as possible, and with the right strikes, he managed to get it on the first try, finishing this project, now on to the next. 9 tries of crafting, yet none of them were as successful as he had hoped. He was too battered up to go on trying for now and would go up to his smithy and relax until he had the mental energy to actually finish this stuff. Crafting on the 22nd

Taking a break from crafting in his smithy, Macradon would take a short rest up in his shop in his rocking chair with Balthazar the Owlbear cub on his lap. Rocking back and forth, Macradon would close his eyes and relax for a while. WIth his mind cleansed from anything, the doorbell rang as it was opened, revealing a man Macradon hadn’t seen before. “Oh hey. Welcome to the Blazing Typhoon, I’m your Blacksmith, Macradon, and what can I do for you today?” he would ask and listen to the request the man had. Looking at what he wanted, Macradon would hand over the pauldron to him as well as accepti

Macradon would smile and bow his head lightly “If that’s what you wish, then it’s sold!” he said, throwing a thumbs up at the man. He would look at the man and nod at his request, he knew how important some things were when collecting materials and what significance it had. Macradon had a weapon like that as well, his Slayer of Jura, a precious weapon of his past. Macradon would shake his head at the question posed at him “Not that I’m aware off, merchants usually don’t buy anything unless it’s at a high value” he said. But that aside, Macradon would look at the requests and take the pieces of

Macradon would smile and nod his head at the girl, it was nice that his work was appreciated. “It suits you” he said to the girl who seemed happy in her new attire. Looking over at Itzal, Macradon would accept the payment handed over. If it weren’t for a high level player paying for the equipment, the girl would’ve gotten a discount, but the discount is only there to help low leveled new players through the prices, so a frontliner wouldn’t really need that discount. He would bow his head lightly and accept the praise “Thanks, man” he replied and would wink with his eye. He would wave the two f

I ... I never actually thought of it that way. That may just be becasue I'm living in the frontliner Bubble, not experiencing a lot of the lower floor's quarrels like that. Very interesting point ot be made. There haven't been any active in the raid meeting. I'd like to have a raid as fast as possible as well. The motivation of the frontliens is quite stagnant. I agree, a Time Skip may solve the stagnation, but all of the things that could've happen in the timeskip isn't there, and so much could've happened within the floors that were skipped. My stance for the tim

He would finish off the shield, finally done with it all, it took a few hours, and the usage of materials was also great, it would probably have been lower, but because of the recent hotfix in the game, crafting had been changed slightly. He would brush off the thought and grab everything he had made, the sword in a scabbard that matched, the clothes and armor in a linen bag and the shield in his hand. He would walk up the stairs and come out of the door, walking back into his shop. “Hey Hestia, I’m done with the items” he said and would place the brown linen bag on top of the counter, as well

The dark color of the blade contrast with the gold and brass hilt, shielding off for the knuckles and the front part of the hand. Two red garnets are embedded into the hilt, giving a classy prestigous feel to it. The hardwood handle is wrapped in tight purple silk, giving a comfortable feeling to the grip. Counterbalancing the tip-heavy sword is the hilt's end, ending in a flourish

Macradon would continue working on the crafts, he only had one item left to craft, and it was getting difficult to really get a grasp again, it should be easier for him to make these crafts by now, but it still seemed like it took way too long before he would get anything out of it. He had one thing left, a shield. He should be more than capable of taking good care of this, he thought that at least. It took him quite a while, 7 tries to be exact. That’s a lot of tries for getting a perfect craft, especially for a Perfect item, but that’s just how it was, it took its time. Crafting on the

Macradon would nod and have everything listed before him, he would grab everything needed and begin to walk towards the door behind the counter leading down into his smithy. "Please take a seat or take a stroll while I'll be crafting your equipment, it might take a while, depending on how well this goes" he would say as he went down the stairs. He would ignite the furnace, place the tier 1 materials in front of him, readying his anvil and his hammer. Starting out with something familiar, Macradon would make the sword. A curved sword, it took just 2 tries to make the desired weapon. He would co

Macradon nod at the Girl’s decision, it was her gear after all. Listening to her reasoning, Macradon would come with what seemed like a clarification of a misunderstanding “It becomes more relevant in later tiers, so your Tier one equipment here isn’t gonna help you when you hit level 25, you’d have to get new gear by then” he said. “When you hit level 25, you need new gear, and that’s when Bleed will be relevant, as it scales through tier” explaining that a tier 1 weapon with bleed would be near to useless, while a Tier 2 bleed would be better “But if you want it now, I won’t stop you from do

He would listen to the enhancements requested for the armoury, and Macradon would take mental notes, remembering what was needed. Damage over Time instead of Paralyze was also useful if that’s what you wanted, so Macradon wouldn’t really change any of that. Macradon understood that a Defender Familiar would be a good addition to this equipment, but that means she had to go find a familiar, which could take a while, but if Itzal is with her, Macradon wouldn’t really doubt their decisions. “Well, If I were you, I’d probably go for Mitigation on the Armor and get a damage familiar. Slap that thor

Looking at the items, Macradon would think of an estimate of what time is needed. What Enhancement did they even need as well, Macradon hadn’t been told, only the visual design. “So, I’d recon I could finish them today, but I’d like to know … what kind of enhancements do you want for your items?” he would ask. He could come up with something, but he wanted her to choose her own style, what did she want. If Macradon had taken the tank route, he’d probably go with a Status and Accuracy weapon. Thorn Shield with some kind of status as well and Full Mitigation armor, probably also go for a Damage

Macradon would quickly rip off the page with his sketches on off and begin to take notes of everything the girl wanted for her full equipment. It was a lot of details Macradon received, and it was perfect, the more specific, the easier it was to design. With every detail being mentioned, Macradon would write down, as well as making a mental note, slowly having a design being formed in his mind. When she finished with everything, Macradon would smile with a slight laugh “No problem at all, It’s fantastic having a customer who’s really specific in what they want, sometimes it ends up being extre

Rocking slowly back and forth in his rocking chair, Macradon had a slow put comfortable day where he could relax for the most part. Sitting in his own thoughts, Macradon would await a customer and after some time of waiting, Macradon would finally get someone to enter his shop today. The small bell chimed as the door opened up, revealing a familiar face, and a familiar familiar that, like a lightning, flew to his shoulder, giving him a lick before it would begin to fly everywhere in his shop. Macradon would smile lightly as he would lift the sleeping Balthazar off of his lap, he would stand up

Well then, if that's what people want, that'd be great for them, then. This site would become another MMO-RPG loosely based on SAO, and I'm not too sure that's what people come for, if they are, then that would be perfect with making characters revivable. But I just don't see, and that's of course just my opinion, why we should take away a huge part of what SAO was about. If the interest is to keep the site alive above else, then sure, that could possibly add to it.

If they were to be revived, the whole story arc Macradon is going through is based on nothing. Perma Death is a big part of what SAO is, and taking that part away just makes this yet another MMO-RPG without much else to give other than that you can actually beat this MMO.

I mean, the real felxible thing to make it work is that you have SP instead of the Canon way of levelign and acquiring skills. What other examples can you come with?

I don't have time (exams gdi) to write a full post, maybe later, but not right now. This discussion had been in the Doner's section, so I'll insert some snippets of my opinion on the matter. I could agree to the newer players to be bumped up in levels, something like the lowest level for the current tier. My 0.02 dollars

After finishing the request, Macradon would grab the two pieces of equipment and walk out of his shop. Clad in his casual outfit, Macradon would venture out of the town of beginnings and get out to Seul and greet him “Hey there, I got your stuff” he said with a smile as he would begin a transaction “I hope they’ll suit your taste” he said as he would send over the sword and the mask to Seul. “That’ll be 20 000 col” he said somewhat hesitantly, but he knew when someone was around tier 3, col funds wouldn’t be a problem. When the transaction was done Macradon would return to his shop only to soo

Exhaling a very deep breath as he sat in his rocking chair, a message would appear on his HUD. “Who could that be?” he thought and opened up the small envelope. Reading through the envelope, Macradon smiled and would stand up from his chair and head down into his smithy. “Alright, let’s get this going” he said and lit the furnace and prepare his mallet and anvil. As the furnace had been heated to a proper temperature, Macradon would get his materials and begin forging and crafting. With different kinds of techniques, Macradon would try to use these tier 3 materials as best as he could, and wo
