Sudden cap on skills..why?

LordZen · #1 10-06-2002, 08:35 AM

why all of the sudden there is such a terrible limit on how often you can use skills? I mean I understand the reasoning behind it sorta but it is to brutal, like cut the time in half or more..there are not caps on how often you can activate wizardry or piety so why is there a cap on how often you can use woodsman and smithery?? it doesnt make that much sense to me and has gotten sorta frustrating.

Also the new swimming sucks, i was stuck in the water for twenty minutes before i realised i had to press s

And what is with attacking stuff, before i could hold the arrow key and hit S, but now i have to hold the s key and hit the arrow keys... which means im slower and monsters are killing me much faster!

:grrr:

It's fine just how it is. You have to realize the flaming sword is one of the best weapons, and you have to get the god to do one of the hardest things for you, enchant it. If it was easy like it was before it would take 1/2 hour to get a very strong weapon that had stat-lowering effects.

make it 4 hours of sitting in the same spot...

In this ammount of time i could have made enough money to Enchant it twice with scroll bought from the magic shop >=|

Bile is too stingy

AlexH · #8 10-21-2002, 02:46 AM

If you get flame sword and have Bile enchant it will the enchantment eventually wear off or is it on the sword forever?

ReaperJ · #9 10-21-2002, 03:31 AM

forever, my flaming sword of balor has ..always been a flaming sword of balor heh, now i must enchant this other sword with bile...

((ooo houses are comming out.)) heh ill put the bile sword thing on hold for a few =P

ReaperJ · #10 10-21-2002, 06:53 PM

Holyblade_Owner · #11 10-23-2002, 02:48 PM

Then they would be banned.

The cap on skills is there for the exact reason you're complaining about. To limit the time you can use the skill. If you could just use praying every time you said it, there would be no point in even having to wait. Then it might as well have the gods enchanting your weapons automatically as soon as you pray once.

The same thing for food. The cap was set on woodsman because players could get one water and identify it, and get another, and identify it, etc. There has to be some kind of limit to the skills.

why do people want weapons of bile anyway, there horrible with their stat loss effects

I got some Angel slay flaming sword from balor (Actually AlexH traded his for my normal one since I was praying for 2 days and never got nothing). I think that balor should give you rewards for the experance you have not just sitting there for a few hours praying.
