You hear a loud *POP* come from your muscles!
Your incapacitation makes it all the more difficult, but as you concentrate (as best you can) on your sigil, you feel yourself being whisked away...

[Old Ta'Faendryl, East Entrance]
Two huge columns flank either side of a walkway that leads out past the city walls. Each column is miraculously intact, but so badly tilted that they lean against each other in a precarious equilibrium, forming a triangular arch over the opening. A road leading north and south runs past the opening, and a large square plaza extends out to the west.

A burly dwarven captain just arrived.
The entrance to Tykel's Arms, its heavy door bounded by iron-barred windows, dominates this corner of the square. All manner of citizens pass by, moving among the solid, multistoried wooden buildings that surround the bazaar. Just to the southwest can be seen the tree-shaded heart of the square, where citizens and adventurers gather for socializing, healing and rest. You also see a burly dwarven captain, the Dhairn disk, the Draithe disk, a Wehnimer's runner, a spotted amber leopard, a narrow alleyway, a painted wooden sign that reads, "Axe Mayor Walkar!" and a painted wooden sign that reads, "Mayor Walkar, the Arm of Luukos!".

On the one hand it's kind of cheezy for a GM to get frustrated and whip out the 900AS claidhmore for insta-gib.

But it was also RP'd, and logical, that their boss would be a badass and wouldn't stand for your shit.

Kudos for not QQ'ing in-game about it and taking your lumps.

Yea, it was a bit lame. He actually walked straight in with the only warning before that from someone thinking to Dhairn and killed Draithe.

At that point we were still deciding whether or not to continue to kill the sentinels. After the second attack where he got both of us we decided to go fully aggro against them, banishment to landing is not a punishment to us.

I wish he had come in and threatened or something before murdering us either the first or second time, we were not going to run away (before the fight started anyhow). His defense/offense is stupid absurd, to the point of it not really being feasible to kill him. I have a tactic I'm debating implementing, since it will cost me 10-20m for the chance!

Here is his first attack on us, no talk before it, proceeding to hunt Dhairn while invisible for a good 10 minutes before and after (I got alive and we tried to hunt him) we were attacking him with implode and 900 AS lances. Did maybe 50 damage total!

Speaking in Dark Elven, Dhairn says, "Watch out."
Speaking in Dark Elven, you ask, "For what?"

A burly dwarven captain just arrived.
Citizens, merchants and assorted dregs of society jostle against you before the great wooden gates of Wehnimer's Landing. Harried guards and militiamen try to keep the chaos to a minimum, but it is hard to keep track of those entering, let alone leaving, this large trading post. A dirt path encircling the wooden palisade of the town leads east and southwest. Nailed prominently to the wooden wall beside the gate is a sign you really should read. You also see a burly dwarven captain, the Dhairn disk, the Draithe disk, a speckled owl, a Wayside Inn and a tall wooden archery tower.
Also here: Dhairn

[Warcamp, Supply Hut - 16712]
Wind whistles through cracks in the walls of the poorly built hut and threaten to extinguish the flame of a dented bronze lantern hanging from the ceiling. Various odd-sized crates and barrels, many of them speckled with dark stains, are stacked haphazardly throughout the room, forsaking any sense of organization. Several table legs lean against a massive stone chest placed in the back of the room and along the walls, hanging from pegs, are numerous dented cups and nets of broken dinner plates.

I've never hunted these, but that seems like BS to me.

[Asha]

Never seen that before either and I farmed that place for 2 years.
Not surprised though. There's a reason that area is called the meat grinder.

[Divinity]

Roa'ters have been known for burying and launching people. You ran into some poor luck.

[Asha]

Yeah but in the stronghold?

[Divinity]

Yeah but in the stronghold?

Yeah, I've seen them follow people and/or stray. There was in town a week ago or so. That was hilarious. People in Landing were freaking out thinking it was Kenstrom.

[Asha]

It didn't stray, it was summoned. Crazyness.
I wonder if you can animate them?

[drigore]

Two Illoke can summon other earth/stone type creatures. Roa'ters, Gargoyles, Sentinals and the like.

[Drew]

Yep roa'ters are a rare summon in the stronghold but they do happen, I've seen it myself, updated the krakiipedia:

It's the friggin traps

[Fallen]

It's the friggin traps

Their ability to stack RT before you're able to respond (via traps, CMANs from hiding, etc), combined with their dispel crystals is what made them deadly for me. Even with maximized DS, Padding, etc, they would still kill me due to just massive RT stacking and spell stripping.

[Asha]

I have to admit, if I wasn't stunned I would just re-log in. RT deaths are too painful to watch.

I didn't realize that was an Ithzir maneuver until someone told me (blush), I've never hunted OTF (obv). But then, I don't really plan to, I just don't much care for Illistim (in like fifteen years I still can't figure out how to get around in that maze of a town. Rift and/or Sunken Temple, ftw).

Still though...it was kroderine *facepalm* I should report it as a bug and see if I can convince the staff that kroderine should have an exception. That'd make my armor even sweeter.

[Gelston]

The electrical charge is drawn to your hued kroderine platemail

That line makes me more think of it being like a, well, electrical thing rather than a magic thing. I doubt your plate would resist an active power line falling on it.

[Mohrgan]

The electrical charge is drawn to your hued kroderine platemail

That line makes me more think of it being like a, well, electrical thing rather than a magic thing. I doubt your plate would resist an active power line falling on it.

Yeah, but it absorbs electrical bolts and ball spells (which, incidentally, I was under the impression that it did not do until some wacky thing in the Schism of Dreams actually had a high enough bolt AS to get through and test it) just fine...seems like if it should be good for one, it should be good for the other. I mean, the only difference I see is that in one instance they are gesturing at me and in the other they are clapping their hands.

The more I think about it, the more I want to consult a GM. I say that realizing that there is about a 0% chance of actually getting said change made. Also, the death I posted was the only time I've actually seen on of those shadow people use that maneuver, so given that I don't hunt OTF, such a change would be pretty low yield, honestly.

Three beaten paths break off in a northerly direction, curving around a number of poorly built huts and tents. A pile of broken bones and rotting flesh compete with a pile of steaming offal for the most nauseating odor available. Over the top of the tents, a tall wooden flagpole marks the center of the warcamp just ahead, while a broad dirt path leads south to the sole entrance and exit of the encampment. You also see a wooden arrow, a Grimswarm troll ranger, a Grimswarm troll crusader, a Grimswarm troll guard, a Grimswarm troll soldier and a Grimswarm troll ranger that appears dead.

As you approach the iron gate, it creaks open just long enough for you to enter the arena...
[Arena of Stone]
Solid walls hewn from subterranean rock enclose the arena, ensuring anything within its confines stays inside. Notably, a massive iron gate stands before a large granite block archway, the only way in to the stone edifice from this portion of the cavern. Deep hollows have been created in certain sections of the perimeter, and within their shadows, the savage eyes of monsters seek escape from their prisons. You also see a grizzled Grimswarm giant marauder.

we have about 10 disabling/stunning spells, charge is a bitch to avoid, best to 706 and 710 than 710 and 710, or remove the legs/arms

[Kastrel]

I can't ward them. Not even close. The ones they gave me were so high compared to my level that I was completely incapable of fighting them.

Second round, I fought a paladin who, even after a few dispels, had a possible 110 on a Balefire if I rolled a 100, and was unwardable entirely, even post 715.

They were also completely immune to Quake, E-Wave, Major E-wave, Implosion, and Focused, charged Maelstrom, which actually sat and unloaded on the Paladin for about 20 rounds without hurting him. He was literally immune to me. Fortunately, I survived. He was whittling me down with Tackle HP damage, but I walked with 50 left. Couldn't risk the DS loss to whip out my acantha leaf and then spend 50 seconds in RT like I did a few times.

[Kastrel]

Not an actual clip of a death, but an impressive case of mechanics abuse.

Backstory: Brevelan, a very, very angsty and quick to void Sorcerer, apparently voided Ortar, some warrior, around the Landing. 15 minutes of bickering in TSC resulted in no apparent reason WHY she did it, but apparently, quite a few people were very pissed off. She just sat safely in TSC and gloated with her group closed. But then this . . .

This goes unnoticed by most:
Rarr gestures at an uncut emerald.
A quick prayer uttered by Rarr causes the uncut emerald to glow slightly.
>
Rarr blinks out of existence ... an audible pop precedes Rarr's return to your view.


5 minutes later:
[Town Square Central]
Also here: Lady Krysanna, Baschem, High Lord Nazca, Xorent, Lord Bevan, Gwinnhafyr who is lying down, Greycrown who is sitting, Lady Lizythia, Vujia who is sitting, Brevelan who is sitting, Lady Wintersylph who is kneeling, Izden, Jeralyn, Lord Gorln who is sitting, Sabran, Maylan who is kneeling, Rekatrednu who is sitting, Marumoto who is lying down, Arciem who is sitting
>
You notice Rarr try to tiptoe silently by you.
You notice a pure white snow-owl glancing off in another direction for a moment.
You notice a short-haired white cat glancing off in another direction for a moment.
>
Rarr comes out of hiding.
Rarr flings herself against Brevelan, bounces off of her, and giggles madly!
>
Rarr carefully rubs her uncut emerald.
The nighttime sky vanishes under a veil of darkness as the once lively twilight scene muffles to nothingness. A hollowing emptiness fills the air and all semblance of time falls to the wayside. Before your eyes can adjust to the darkness the veil fades away and the world returns to its previous state, but it appears that Rarr's group is missing.
>
* Brevelan just bit the dust!

I was entirely uninvolved, but was impressed. Brevelan has threatened to kill at least 3 of my characters in the past for little or no reason, and has literally nothing better to do other than go around snarling "Watch out or I'll void you!" Pretty funny.

[Gyldemar Road]
A warm, slightly humid stillness pervades the area. Not a leaf stirs on any of the hundreds of trees surrounding the remains of the cobblestone road. Movement is absent in the air, but the air is still filled with the sounds of the forest--the buzzing and humming of winged insects, the calls and songs of birds, the croaking and booming of amphibian life, and the occasional far off howl of a coyote or wolf.

[Gyldemar Road]
The tracks of several different types of creatures are apparent in the mud that parallels the road. The deep, cloven hoof prints of elk and deer mingle with the light impressions of rabbits and raccoons and the paw prints of coyotes and wolves. From the smeared appearance of the coyote and wolf paw prints, the animals were most likely on the run, either after prey or away from a predator. However, the only predator of theirs around these parts leaves the same muddy prints you do.

At the north end of the space, an old well, with moss-covered stones and a craggy roof, is shaded by a strong, robust tree. The oak is tall and straight, and it is apparent that the roots run deep.

Sweet, thanks -- I might check it out. Reminds me of the board game Pandemic.

Me and some friends of mine will occasionally get together to play board games and drink beers; everyone kind of dreads playing that one because, man... can things ever go wrong fast in that game, haha.

[FlayedAngel]

Oh man, I feel the pain on the Vaesps -- one time, I got dropped face-down (from climbing a thread or something) in a room with three of 'em, all with voids prepped or about to prep them.

Needless to say, that did not end well.

The bustling town comes together in this square. Halflings dressed in varying fashions stand about, some chattering happily, others reclining on cloaks laid on the ground. One ancient halfling leans against the base of the large ice statue of a mule, snoring blissfully. A feeling of community pervades the area, putting you immediately at ease. You also see the Jeril disk, the Rozy disk, a blanket of snow, a carved ice bench with some stuff on it and a colorful silver-bound barrel with some stuff on it.

[Timjirdos]

Not an actual clip of a death, but an impressive case of mechanics abuse.

Backstory: Brevelan, a very, very angsty and quick to void Sorcerer, apparently voided Ortar, some warrior, around the Landing. 15 minutes of bickering in TSC resulted in no apparent reason WHY she did it, but apparently, quite a few people were very pissed off. She just sat safely in TSC and gloated with her group closed. But then this . . .

This goes unnoticed by most:
Rarr gestures at an uncut emerald.
A quick prayer uttered by Rarr causes the uncut emerald to glow slightly.
>
Rarr blinks out of existence ... an audible pop precedes Rarr's return to your view.


5 minutes later:
[Town Square Central]
Also here: Lady Krysanna, Baschem, High Lord Nazca, Xorent, Lord Bevan, Gwinnhafyr who is lying down, Greycrown who is sitting, Lady Lizythia, Vujia who is sitting, Brevelan who is sitting, Lady Wintersylph who is kneeling, Izden, Jeralyn, Lord Gorln who is sitting, Sabran, Maylan who is kneeling, Rekatrednu who is sitting, Marumoto who is lying down, Arciem who is sitting
>
You notice Rarr try to tiptoe silently by you.
You notice a pure white snow-owl glancing off in another direction for a moment.
You notice a short-haired white cat glancing off in another direction for a moment.
>
Rarr comes out of hiding.
Rarr flings herself against Brevelan, bounces off of her, and giggles madly!
>
Rarr carefully rubs her uncut emerald.
The nighttime sky vanishes under a veil of darkness as the once lively twilight scene muffles to nothingness. A hollowing emptiness fills the air and all semblance of time falls to the wayside. Before your eyes can adjust to the darkness the veil fades away and the world returns to its previous state, but it appears that Rarr's group is missing.
>
* Brevelan just bit the dust!

I was entirely uninvolved, but was impressed. Brevelan has threatened to kill at least 3 of my characters in the past for little or no reason, and has literally nothing better to do other than go around snarling "Watch out or I'll void you!" Pretty funny. well she did that to me. And it backfired ...pun sort of intended

A layer of water only a foot deep covers the floor of what once was an aqueduct for the city above. A tunnel runs off in six directions from this point to carry the water to the thirsty residents. A hole leads upward, and a small amount of light filters down from the hole. The main illumination, however, is provided by a light green glow from the water underneath. The air is still and cool, and sounds echo easily off the cramped walls.

A metal grate bars exit from the tunnel to the east, leaving the only means of egress to the west. The grate is firmly set in the surrounding rock, as if someone had managed to open the rock up, slide the grate in on all sides, and then close the rock again. On the other side of the grate, the river moves slowly past, and the height of the river allows a foot of water or so to filter into the aqueduct. The water in the aqueduct simply pools, though, without movement or current of any kind.

The tunnel moves off to the southwest, the shallow, green water casting an uneven emerald glow on the walls as the water's peace is disturbed by sloshing feet.

A pile of rubble in the center of the tunnel indicates that there may once have been a hole above to allow water to be drawn from the aqueduct.

How much is too much?

[Fallen]

Yeah, that is odd. I doubt they would add a bunch of possible negative side effects to Sacrifice without mentioning it in the release. Maybe more people are using it so we're seeing all this weirdness with it? Maybe mana controls have always played a factor and this person was low level?

Just spitballing.

I think I was full mana. I mainly use 1700 to hunt as a low level since 0 mana.

I think I was full mana. I mainly use 1700 to hunt as a low level since 0 mana.

Yep! It was from too much mana. As an aside, I really love the gore flavor messaging.

Edit: I just realized that was a spirit death, not a 'you ran out of blood and/or got critical death'. I would have bled out before the stun ended, since I would have had 1 hp left over.

Mana - 25/18

[Androidpk]

How much spirit do you have? You do know sacrifice drains 2 spirit if successful and 1 if it fails?

[Astray]

I have 4 max at the moment. I know that. I had full spirit when I tried. My assumption is that I just got a really bad random roll.

What I can tell, it goes three ways.

1. Sacrifice explodes a creature, special gore flavor messaging (I also think it gives you a scent?). Positive?
2. Sacrifice ends neutral.
3. Sacrifice has a backlash. Damage, injury and spirit drain. Negative result.

[Jeril]

As far as I know if you end up over 150% mana is when your head explodes, which might explain why you died in the first clip and not in the second. There is also some weirdness with this 'feature'. I know getting extra mana in the rift isn't going to make your head explode but a bard using unraveling will not too sure on other ways of gaining mana. Might be that only when an action you perform puts you above the limit your head explodes but outside sources won't.

I replied on the officials. I think you are missing the additive effect that the wound from the FIRST rank 7 critical had on the second rank 7 critical. Think of the little wound guy in your Front End for a second. 2+2 = dead. 2+2 != 3. Other examples: if you have a level 3 nerve wound and you cause nerve damage again, you die. If you hit something in the eye with a dagger 3 times in a row and get a rank 3 critical, it'll die, even if you never saw a rank 4 critical.

[Drew]

Hmm, so you're saying if I ambush an area that has a rank 2 crit and cause another rank 2 crit the creature will insta-die? Cause I feel like that happens a lot to the chest when I miss and they don't die.

[Town Square Central - 228]
This is the heart of the main square of Wehnimer's Landing. The impromptu shops of the bazaar are clustered around this central gathering place, where townsfolk, travellers, and adventurers meet to talk, conspire or raise expeditions to the far-flung reaches of Elanith. At the north end, an old well, with moss-covered stones and a craggy roof, is shaded from the moonlight by a strong, robust tree. The oak is tall and straight, and it is apparent that the roots run deep. You also see the Volwulf disk, a ridge wolf, a rose-marrow potion, the Lyracellan disk, the Ozal disk, the Franco disk, the brown Shuos disk, an iron-bound modwir trunk, a dented mithril coffer, a weathered modwir chest, some brostheras grass, a rose-marrow potion, some wolifrew lichen, some wolifrew lichen, a round of fried dough branded with a charred design, a rose-marrow potion, a rose-marrow potion, a rose-marrow potion, a rose-marrow potion, a rose-marrow potion, some wolifrew lichen, some wolifrew lichen, a rose-marrow potion, a rose-marrow potion, a lavender satin rucksack, some stone benches with some stuff on it and an herbal remedy donation bin.
