Brickdoctor Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 [snip] What did you use for the 'RPG'? I've looked around various sites; I can't find any better or larger images of the logo itself. Elemental gems don't stack anymore than effects do. Stop trying to find loopholes from the system! I thought that finding loopholes was the entire point of reading the rules in the first place. Quote
Sandy Posted August 20, 2012 Author Posted August 20, 2012 What did you use for the 'RPG'? The font is called Castellar. I just put a gradient layer over it. I've looked around various sites; I can't find any better or larger images of the logo itself. Me neither. I originally ripped the logo off a screencap of the official website. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 I originally ripped the logo off a screencap of the official website. ...and I tried searching the source code for the original image that TLG used, but it looks like the logo is part of the background, not an isolated element on the page. Brickipedia has an isolated logo, but it looks like they did the same thing you did; theirs isn't any better. The font is called Castellar. I just put a gradient layer over it. Okay, thanks. Quote
CMP Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Elemental gems don't stack anymore than effects do. Stop trying to find loopholes from the system! I'm not looking for loopholes, I'm just trying to find the limits on power. And then maybe push them a little bit. Well, WP upgrades and imbuing elements is about as far you can go in weapon enhancement, and they either get too expensive to even think about or you manage to get all the gems, not to mention it's all for naught once a better, unique weapon comes along. I'm just looking for more ways to go about doing so - it's one of the reasons I liked Quest 11 so much, the permanent Venomed weapons and Hollow Blades were seriously cool and useful, and you could add them to any weapon you had on you for the right price. It's also why I like the scroll imbuement bit on artifacts. If someone gets a weapon they really enjoy, there's always going to be a point where you can't really do anything else to it. The Pitchfork of Domination, for example - whoever's lucky enough to get it could enchant it with all the gems they need, but that's really as far as they can go, it's laughable to even think about boosting WP. Having a dozen Rubies in a single weapon would give me a goal to achieve with it is all. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Speaking of gems, I know that we can merge gems with weapons to use their power, and merge gems and scrolls with artifacts to gain immunity to them - can we merge gems or scrolls with shields? Quote

Interesting question, I would be for it, they could perhaps merge the same way as with artifacts? Seems logical to me. Quote

You really are aiming for an invincible character, are you? But the answer is no, shields cannot be merged with anything, at least for now. Quote
Masked Builder Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Thank God that we have Captain Obvious in our party, we can't possibly fail with him on our side! *snip* Hey! I'm playing this from Alexis' perspective, not mine. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 You really are aiming for an invinsible character, are you? Well, yes. But that's not the reason I wanted to know if I could merge a gem with the shield. I can already gain immunity by merging the gems and scrolls with my Dread Hat. I just wanted to know if there were any other special powers shields might have that I could be taking advantage of. Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 I would think that if shields could have gems and scrolls imbued into them, then they would have to count as artifacts as they currently provide SP without taking up an artifact slot. Quote
Palathadric Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 ~A new quest has been posted on the Quest Board (#47 by Capt.JohnPaul)!~ Obviously farmer "Whatever His Name May Be" seems to have been impressed with the heroes who came for the first quest to defeat the Croise, because he seems intent on getting them to come before they spirit away on unlimited quests. Perhaps he doesn't realize that these heroes helped to get a ton of his fellows killed as well as the princess and have arranged a compromise with the Croise himself. I hope Benji and Lycan don't sign up for the quest. That would be madness! Or, perhaps it's just that Capt.JohnPaul wants to make sure that he can bag Endgame on one of his quests before his party faces any foex in Endgame's quest, so that he can have a bargaining chip in hand.

But the first battle could very likely start today/tommorow... Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 But the first battle could very likely start today/tommorow... I'll make sure you stay in check. Quote
Endgame Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 I'll make sure you stay in check. You can only make a battle so hard. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 You can only make a battle so hard. Meh. Be glad you lost against the Fantome . The princess was the one you had to worry about. Quote
Endgame Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Meh. Be glad you lost against the Fantome . The princess was the one you had to worry about. But... why would we even fight her?! Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 But... why would we even fight her?! To be honest, here's what was planned. You save the princess and she says thank you, yada yada yada, blah blah blah. I love you heroic heroes lovey dubby blah blah yada yada yada etc. etc. Then the princess's face turns into a face of disgust. "YOU are the worst and ABSOLUTE UGLIEST knights in shining armor EVER!" :damn: Princess Kathleen then slaps Lycan, then kicks Sorrow's knee, breaking it again, causing him to lose 1 health. Then bites Benji. She then proceeds to pick up the axe from the fallen guard, and charges. PREPARE FOR BATTLE! Quote

Capt.JohnPaul Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 ...So we could never actually save the princess? No, you would, you would just carry her out of the tower unconscious. Quote
Endgame Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 No, you would, you would just carry her out of the tower unconscious. Ah. After defeating a big bad dictator with an entire monologue, a battle with the princess for that reason sounds a bit superflous. It was a great quest, but I'm unsure that if fighting the princess would've really moved the plot along. if it was just a scene where she got really angry and we restrained her though... Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 I'm slightly confused on her dialog, why would she go from loving Heroica heroes one moment to hating them the next? Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 I'm slightly confused on her dialog, why would she go from loving Heroica heroes one moment to hating them the next? Cause she realized they were ugly. Quote
Endgame Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Cause she realized they were ugly. As she was thanking the heroes, Sorrow gets out from under the ether core pile... Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 As she was thanking the heroes, Sorrow gets out from under the ether core pile... This made my day. Quote
