Official: Ascension

[Methais]

Sounds cool and all, but they are currently in the brainstorming phase?

Yes. So post cool ideas now before tards like HJFudge spam 832740923 shitty weak ideas all over the place.

We have been here before. Maybe Simu will surprise us and this system will be out in a couple of months.

With Coase gone and Estild the apparent head of dev now, I'm gonna see what happens. Word on the mean streets of Elanthia is that a lot of the shit Estild has been catching heat for over the years was actually Coase's doing. So I guess we'll see if dev really takes things in a new direction now or if it'll just be more of the same.

I am all for this as long as there is ABSOLUTLY NO SIMUCOIN REQUIREMENT! EVER!! for any of these abilities.

They clearly are in need of square ideas. There was one warrior one on the initial list, and it was a berserk stoppage idea. Would be good to see broader representations of squares.

So naturally, people post dumb shit like this

GMs: "Hey give us some ideas on stuff, we're thinking like +1% resistances per rank and slightly more functionality with certain-"

Players: "PRESTIGE CLASSES WITH UNIQUE GOD TIER ABILITIES TAILORED TO MY ROLEPLAY"

Some of the stuff mentioned in the OP sounds interesting, but yeah, certain classes are lacking and some abilities are going to wind up being basically mandatory. Hope they get some good, non-munchkin ideas. It's still early days yet so I wouldn't expect anything for at least a year.

Menos and Leafiara had some great suggestions.

Ability to use cries while berserking is one of them on the list already.

I'd like for CMs to randomly fire at no additional stam cost too, between rounds.

I think it'd be cooler if they made it an account wide skillset/pool. MAke having alts on one account make more sense, and also still allow you to progress your characters regardless of who you're playing.

Wyrom stated no Simucoins or any kind of P2W involved.

I like how Estild specifically said (paraphrased) "Don't worry about numbers and restrictions, we'll figure out that side of things, just give us ideas"

Meanwhile in the land of ideas that are awesome as fuck:

I just want a real crap taking ability that leaves behind actual logs that take a week or so to degrade, depending upon weather. If it doesn't rain for awhile, they need to turn white like rl ancient turds. I also want the logs to be distinctive so that when you see them, you see, "Apparently Metais has dropped a few logs here." I want to also be able to crap anywhere where a real gem might be found, like in things, behind things, under things, etc.

>l under bench
You see some turds and are able to determine via their color and consistency that Methais has recently taken a dump here. The smell is somewhat fresh. He is probably still in the area.

Then, once you take the dump, you gain +10 Agility for the next hour.

Someone needs to copy and paste this on the officials immediately.

Since this is called Ascension, how many points will it take to become an Arkati and will they retroactively give Methias enough points that I can convert my Cleric to him?
