All hell has broke loose

whose bright idea was it to limit praying as they did? and to leave the statues the same so you could pray all day with no effects? oh and we have to manually pray for grace? stupid stupid stupid

The glitch where you used the sub-menu to bind a skill and when you hold it down you use the skill a billoin times? o i reported that to stefan last nite. You can hate me or you can love me. Im a priest so you cant say im not affected

Juron Pilo · #3 10-06-2002, 01:19 AM

I'd rather:
a: grace automatically rose and
b: you didn't have to pray quite so many times to your god to recieve their benifits=/
and yes I do hate you because that was the only thing making it barely tolorable for warriors and priests!

well maybe you can ask stefan. i know about the pluses but I just wanted him to know. it was up to him

Now ALL the stats are limited. You are a ****ing retard.
Now it takes me forever to level up with personality because I have to sing.

IlyaDraven · #6 10-06-2002, 02:59 AM

well it WAS a glitch so you were abuseing and thus cheating. And could have been forced to a restarted account

zell12 · #7 10-06-2002, 03:01 AM

I could have use /use_skill singing and done the same thing... So unless im TOLD it was a bug or id obvious, then its not a bug.

true i have no argument. But do you oviusly think that if the sub menu binds were fast and the normal binds werent then it wasnt a bug?

Just the same .. I'm all fine with it being limited, but I had to stand at that altar for quite a few hours .. but .. I got .. let's see .. restored stats, enchanted weapon, and flaming aura (I worship Balor). Last time I went though, I just got holy possession .. sigh .. I think that the limit time should be cut a bit, at least a third of the time it's at now.

lets not forget the manual praying for grace instead of automatically having it rise... honestly whose bright idea was THAT?!

TerrorBite · #11 10-11-2002, 03:34 PM

ummm last I checked grace does rise.. but only to 1/2 of your max without praying... I can't check right now, since the npc server is on strike ^.^

I'm glad they fixed the bug... the bug made praying wayyyy too powerful... honestly... is it balanced to have priests regain GP(Grace points) entirely in about one second? Sure us Sorcerors have auto-regening SP(Spell Points)... but heres our problem... everyone can use Wizardry

with there being no limit on the grace then of couse you could pray like tons of times in under a second, but making the 5 second cap was just plain retarded, and now i think its 3 seconds? still that is really terrible. By making the cap only 1 second, you totally prevent the problem people were having before, because it keeps you from refilling like 30 grace per second down to 1 grace per second.

The cap on skills should be reduced to like 1 second and here is why:
1. the cap doesnt only affect grace, it affects useful skills like woodsman and smithery, and it gets annoying when you cant use one of those skills when you need, and if you DO use that skill then you have to wait the 3 seconds to use praying to refill =(

2. grace points I only get like 3 more max per level with wisdom at 20 and for mana i get 7 more max per level and my power is only 16.......So wizardry deffinately has the advantage there.

3. grace we must constantly mash the button to refill it and often times i press the button again before the cap is up and the messages will start to fill my screen on the right telling me to wait some seconds before doing that. mana can be refilled auto and there are even rings and other things that make your man regenerate faster....

the cap was needed to prevent grace from being to powerful but i say only the slightest limitation is needed to cut down the problem dramatically and the 3 second limit makes grace worse than mana, not to mention the fact that the limit is affecting all other skills that shouldnt have to be capped at all.

Looks good to me. One second, I agree, is a good limit time.

But magic is way to powerful compared to other forms of killing.

LordZen · #16 10-15-2002, 02:22 PM

also another point i left out was that you can even make mana refill FASTER from mana crystals..

why must grace always be the red headed stepchild of the magic family?

thankyou LordZen... your idea is a good one=/
