I was trying to enchant a wolf teeth necklace with tier 2 dexterity, but with the rss to make that possible, it allows for 5 different enchantments. I can't pick which one to enchant it with and it keeps giving me everything except the only one i am after... Like... it could at least go for the enchantment with the damn highest amount of the circles filled. what is the point in trying to enchant your necklace for dexterity when you get magic damage up? At least let us CHOOSE what we want... so, what? i need to make 10000 necklaces till i get one with the 4 enchantments i want? and have my old descent one break before i get to make a new descent one, even tho all i am doing is farming for materials for the necklace?

My character has 6 intelligence for a reason... I don't want more... same for cooldown reduction... who cares about that when u almost never use skills?

My charisma is at max... like, that's what luck is for isn't it?

@islesofurth if not for the daily post, i dont think i would be active in the forums at all. i am sure alot of other people are the same. at first, i didnt post much stuff and alot of my posts were in the daily post, but for quite a while now, i have avoided the daily post thread. i try to post stuff that is useful and the devs sometimes think it is, or i wouldnt have won a few of the weekly draws... all because there was soneyhing pushing me to post in the first place.

all the people that post in dail post and spam will be losing out, because they will never have a chance to win bonus points through the weekly reward things, coz they never post anything useful.

sure, it isnt good there are people that never commit properly in the first place, but there will be people like that regardless of what u do.

oh, woww ^c^ thanks. i wasn't expecting to be a winner in one of these any time soon

@PeachMcD said in Mount conundrum....:

I can't even imagine riding a gorilla, tbh. They are intelligent beings like dolphins. Unless it offered me a ride, I would never.

I'll probably keep my mount as a companion and just not ride her unless under duress. I'd imagine Wolflings will have decent stamina and speed on foot. Or I might come up with a backstory that would make her conveying me believable. I just wanted to raise this as a question cuz it's a funny mental image to see a wolf riding a wolf.

to be fair, some people treat their mounts as companions. Treat a mount well, and it will treat you well... Treat it poorly and it will run away as soon as it gets the chance. Horse riders are a great example. a lot of people i have met that ride their horses absolutely love them... feed them, water them, brush them, give them plwntly of room to run around and sometimes even play with them.

sounds rather interesting. I might consider joining your side, despite being a pretty reclusive person and player alike!! perhaps i could be a hermit, but still provide support every now and then

living on my own in amongst the wildlife could prove fruitful for rss gathering to then sell to the merchants or craft into powerful potions!!

@Jairone said in People who buy a founders pack today get more than yesterday:

@Xzait Glad you opened up to join the community on a deeper level!

i am too. Has certainly made the game alot more interesting, despite not being able yo play it unless an alpha is up. Rhe community is wonderful and we all have fun chatting about all the updates and potential mechanics! ^c^

@Jairone said in Attacks speeds depending on armor ?:

Further, it's actually realistic to run at about the same speed. Especially for trained warriors. The idea otherwise is tied pretty heavily to being outrun over long distances, which remains true... but that's best represented not as a maximum speed, but a limited time for going full speed.

That is not true at all. No matter how well trained someone is in a full plate mail, they would not be able to keep up with someone that is running away from them in light armour that weighs literally 10x less. It is the same for weapons. A master Greatswordsman will not physically be able to swing a large greatsword faster than someone swinging a rapier.

A greatsword is designed for great physical power, as a heavy armour is designed for a formidable defence. Using a rapier sacrifices brute power for speed and piercing. Light armour sacrifices a large amount of defence for agility and manouverability.

Running at the same speed in all armour is in no means realistic at all.

@Xzoviac oo. the idea of damaged trophies is interesting... maybe they deteriorate over time like the house does if you dont maintain it... so you can only have a trophy if you have killed the difficult enemy rescently. Like, in the last 6 months for example (not sure if that is too long tho tbh, with the rate of which houses are planned to deteriorate).

@Prometheus does bow damage stat off or PER? it's hard to tell how its' damage goes up looking at stats, as there is no mention of bows in the character creation. Perhaps there should be a tip put into it in future updates? I got my str to 15 this test in case bow damage statted off of that, but it doesn't seem to have helped.

I have been trying to do a bow build from the get-go in this game, but the lack of info does make it difficult. I havn't read up much on the news, because i like to discover things for myself instead of be spoiled for info and not have the excitement of discovery, so it is probably my fault... BUT, when the game is eventually released as open beta or a full game, New players with no background knowledge (like I, in effect would be testing as) NEED to be able to find out how they need their build on their own through wit and the descriptions of the different stats before them.

To add to this, my suggestion would be to add some kind of 'advanced descriptions' to the game. Have the basic description of everything that u do now, but then an extra button to open up more detailed notes on EXACTLY what each stat does for you in-game. Of course, this probably can't be done until all the stats are fleshed out completely and are exactly what u guys want, but I hope to see it implemented ^c^

@PeachMcD lol. you can sleep with the wolves and giant spiders outside instead of the cutw mice inside if you really want The tavern could be a 'safer' place to sleep rather than a cleaner one. i really like the idea of this. maybe you could get a minor debuff if you slept outside on the hard ground. Not enough to be dangerous, just a minor hinderance.

@kellewic said in Unable to pick anything up!!:

I've run into this as well after having pretty much any status effect on. I can't interact with anything until it goes away except looting corpses and attacking.

I was unable to loot even after it went away.

If you activate a Fleshing Beam while your character is still mid attack animation (with a longbow is what i did it with), it will sometimes continue to spam the attack animation. I think it might have been because i also killed an enemy when i did activate it.

Damn, it didn't show my cursor location hovering over the stone.

I was attacked by 2 wolves, giving me the bleed debuff. I killed a rabbit while it was active. I guess I may have looted it just as the debuff disappeared? Now I can't pick anything up at all. It locked me into combat stance I guess, and there isn't a way to manually change it yet. I can't pick up samml stones, gather a mushroom, harvest twigs, mine a rock, NOTHING!! All I can do is kill stuff and loot corpses and move around.

@Harleyyelrah said in Death Penalty of losing all gear and inventory: WORST IDEA EVER!!!:

@Xzait I think you tagged the wrong person xD Hathos was saying that it's pretty much impossible to die in PVE at this point.

Oh crap!! you are totally right!! My deepest apologies @Hathos . I don't remember who I was supposed to tag at this point. Just anyone that dies... learn how to make a campfire. You have no excuse other than your own stupidity, unless it is from Necrosis and you didn't know what Necrosis did... then you may be pardoned. Sitting on 1 HP because it doesn't kill you is NOT a plausible excuse!! Coz eventually it can.

I reckon I would probably aggree. My headphones are sensitive AF, but even at 20% sound it's like i have them up at 40-50%. I personally play with the music in-game turned off, coz for me, it is immersion breaking. Which produces an even larger leap from super sound to little nature sounds.

I would really like the devs to implement some kind of surround sound element if possible, coz u can hear a rabbit running, but you can't tell what direction it is in and inevitably run in the wrong direction 70% of the time. I don't know how they would go about that in an isometric game though. I absolutely loved having no UI in skyrim and playing everything off sound for directional enemy immersion :3

@Znick said in Death Penalty of losing all gear and inventory: WORST IDEA EVER!!!:

I don't see it this way... first, how are you dying so much? I got knocked out a few times, but I NEVER group and have never died.

If you do, grab some more gear that you made (you make and enchant 4-5 sets at a time and put it in your house/bank) and run back... forget your body unless there's some uber rare on it. Why bother, no gear is that good.

FInally... I picked exactly the enchants I wanted, there was nothing random.

Am I wrong??

Z

Or, @Hathos could simply learn how to make a campfire.... and prepare for trips being made. Like the devs intend people to do.

I was in a party with 1 other person. I picked up a small stone from the ground and about half way through the animation, my party member picked it up. I finished the animation first and it told me i got +1 stone, but it did not appear in my inventory. Based on what my party member said, I am assuming they didn't pick up the stone, but it also didn't disappear, but they couldn't try to pick it up again. So the stone disappeared, but didn't disappear, but also got picked up and didn't get picked up at the same time. We have a Schroidinger Stone ladies and gentleman.

@asspirin how is it imbalanced? The items are in your inventory regardless. It is pretty standard for you to be able to use potions by right clicking them in your inventory in most MMORPG's is it not? You'd do that at risk of spending time going into tour invetory while being attacked just to save a single slot tho. It is arguably worth not slotting it for a single ability. But why not let those that are willing to risk it, risk it?

If anyone really thinks this is a bad idea... just think, as it is currently, you could have 7 types of potions (if that many were implemented) and be able to use them all in just a single slot anyway... have open inventory use first potion, quickly drag second to replace it, use secobd potion, drag third and so on. It is basically the same thing!!!

Oh hellz yeah. I guess they changed the mechanics at some point then!! ^c^
