Endgame Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 A little bit of RP! With Sorrow's character fully established, time to move him along a bit. Quote
UsernameMDM Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Sandy, can gems be unmerged from shields like they can with weapons and Artifacts? It says you can in the description I posted. So, if I merge an Amethyst with a shield or artefact, am I immune from attacks made by Dark type enemies (free hits, damage, special damage)? If not, how exactly does it work? Quote

No, you are immune to damage that is specified as darkness. Like for example, a fire breath special will probably say: Does X amount of Fire Damage, etc. Quote

Like for example, a fire breath special will probably say: Does X amount of Fire Damage, etc. Not sure that I have seen such attacks. Are these pretty ordinary? What if the the opponent has an elemental weapon? Do I have immunity to regular attacks & free hits? Quote
Brickdoctor Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 They're not that common, but you'll probably see at least one in each quest. Imbuing gems in an artifact, like imbuing scrolls, is probably just going to protect you from a few Special Damage rolls. For other enemy attacks, you have to rely on SP. (otherwise we could just imbue all nine gems in an artifact and be invincible against the vast majority of enemies) Quote
UsernameMDM Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Not trying to min/max btw, just wanting to understand before I start slapping gems on stuff. Quote
JimBee Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 When did that happen?! I thought Sandy specifically said shields COULDN'T be upgraded with gems or scrolls, in response to Docken wanting to imbue them into the shield. I believe it was scrolls only. I see no problem with imbuing gems into shields. Not trying to min/max btw, just wanting to understand before I start slapping gems on stuff. Minmax away - it's one of the best parts of the game, IMO. It's a great challenge and I like finding strategies that work. Quote
Etzel Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Maurice can use the Heavy Armour, it's suitable for Barbarians and Knights and he's part Knight. Oh, okay. I got confused when the description in the marketplace specifically mentioned dragoons and skirmishers. But all things considered I think the Paladin's armour with immunity to Light that he got now fits even better. I'm definitely not guilty of min-maxing, the Heavy armour was probably better seen from a player perspective, but I don't really care about making Maurice some kind of superhero. It's more important to me to develop his story. Quote
Scubacarrot Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Honestly, if you have a mage that has a damaging special, just make it an element. A lot of the time it is not specified, when it actually can be. Quote
Zepher Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Honestly, if you have a mage that has a damaging special, just make it an element. A lot of the time it is not specified, when it actually can be. Agreed 100%. Quote
The Legonater Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Zeph, out of curiosity, how exactly does Alexis have four artefacts equipped? Quote
Flipz Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 QM goof. I have to admit, I feel a little bad for Zeph, having to deal with all of our crazy stats and item changes. Then I remember the latest three sets of battles, and just sit back and grin wickedly. Quote
Pandora Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Mmm, I would love another Amethyst to merge with my book. Rolling a Shield then (against an appropriate enemy, of course) would be quite something. Quote
-obelix- Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Flipz, be sure to check Thalion's latest reply to Amma in #55 top of page 25 on #55, there is a mention of Arthur and a display of some of the dark influence Arthur was on Thalion. The speech is titled "When goody-goody gets angered." Edited February 1, 2013 by -obelix- Quote
-obelix- Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Phew.... "Thalion, the lawyer" A mage-lawyer, good concept for a comic book... Quote
Chromeknight Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 So, after some time pulling bits out of storage I shot the photos for my training sequence (I even assembled a Copper Fox!) and also found the bits for a Guts, Sorrow Mizuki (=Nya, easy!), Nagure (even easier!) and a version of De'kra. All in all, I'm a happy hero. Now I just need to find time to edit! Quote

Sounds gut good! edit Short question: How do you guys pronounce "Stigveladi Kötturin" (and how "Amma") and what do you think of when you hear her names? Is there a difference between Stiveladi and Amma (i.e. what conception do you have from her when you hear the names)? Edited February 1, 2013 by PsyKater Quote
Masked Builder Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Zeph, out of curiosity, how exactly does Alexis have four artefacts equipped? Yeah, I told him once already, just hasn't fixed it yet. Two of them are accessories too. Quote

Is there a difference between Stiveladi and Amma (i.e. what conception do you have from her when you hear the names)? I don't pronounce it. I just say "Amma." It's easier than reading the whole long thing. It's like how Pretzel took to calling Erdathcath, Erdy, it's just because I was too lazy to think about the spelling of Erdathcath. Quote

It's like how Pretzel took to calling Erdathcath, Erdy, it's just because I was too lazy to think about the spelling of Erdathcath. Think about Dreyrugr then. That was hard to learn (at least for me). Quote
Palathadric Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Just saw this now. I always said Dreyrugr, Dreygur. Don't know why. I guess I read the names quickly, and slap an easy pronounciation on it without thinking twice. I used to call Thormanil "Thornmail." Quote
PsyKater Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I said the same to him until I had to write the name. Even then I had to look it up several times. It's just easier to speak, I guess. On the other hand I have no idea how to pronounce Dreyrugr correctly. Credits for that pic go to herrJJ. He sent me that pic after he read the post and I pasted it in. It made me lough hard, too.

Scorpiox Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I don't think that anyone has EVER called Haldor by his surname. Quote
Wedge09 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I always said Dreyrugr, Dreygur. Don't know why. I guess I read the names quickly, and slap an easy pronounciation on it without thinking twice. I used to call Thormanil "Thornmail." The same for me, I always said Dreygur until I had to write it down and I noticed the r For PsyKater I said always Amma, I think it is more practical to remember and to day Quote
