Shattered Kingdoms

Your knowledge over mechanics is at least laughable Pyras. I replied to Achernar already who made a similar comment.


All that he has to do is 2 things. Either spam quaff word(you don't quaff the potion while taunted, so spam means you get out the moment taunt wears off), or the moment someone turns ethereal, you disband the group, set wimpy 100 and when you are attacked from another person, taunt is broken and you are free to flee/quaff word.

Generally, etherealform is a safehouse from taunt. Only with scripted etherealform items a swashie can kill someone who turned ethereal and knows what he is doing while taunted.

But even if we take the approach that this would overpower taunt, can anyone simply explain to me how 1 single item makes taunt weaker when etherealform in all its forms(casted/scrolls/wands/staves/scripted items) is not? What balance is disturbed exactly?

Oh right, I know the answer. The balance of my char holding said item and using it against you. For all the years that it was used in similar occassions none QQed about it.

PS: I don't disagree that removing etherealform would overpower taunt. But anyway, taunt is broken and needs to be reworked from scratch. I've stated far too many bugs in this thread(whatever explanation you choose to accept), and they need to be fixed. But until Dulrik decides to clearly choose a side, we can't propose to him possible bugs and fixes for this broken skill of the game.

EDIT: ardith, regardless of my motivation, my arguments are 100% correct and valid, unlike those of many of you. Reading this thread again proves it. But then again, you are the one with obvious reading comprehension problems.

The trouble with DA is that he lacks the power of conversation but not the power of speech.

If you start giving argument, we can have a conversation. Until then, join ardith and co in your flaming babble.

You can rub one off over someone else (Any takers?) who plays into thinking that they can persuade you to think anything other than your own misguided opinion, for all I care. cya

Thank you for proving my previous point.

You are obviously incapable of having an intelligent discussion.

Have fun.

DA, let me ask you a simple question. Do you think SK is in someway a democracy or republic?

That is the funniest thing I've ever heard Durlik say.

Where in Dulrik's extraordinarily bitingly humorous post do you find any self-justification, DA? While the debate is definitely worth having, your self-aggrandizement does the debate a great disservice. Dulrik said you ignore what he says; therefore, anything you say must be evaluated based on the fact Dulrik refuses to enter into conversations you start because you refuse to listen to Dulrik the creator's responses.

Son of a goat herder! Can we not communicate on the forums without exposing the players behind the characters?

No matter how hard I try now, I wont think of DA's character as the character anymore, but as the player DA. Thanks a lot dick heads.

...

character?
