I consider myself a pretty good CFer, both PK, RP and Explore wise. And I never perfect skills by spamming save for parry on a sword spec and dodge on a dagger spec. The rest goes up by lvling/playing even with my giants.

Consolidation of Ranks Idea	dubs	July 15, 2013 12:02PM
In my opinion	daurwyn(VIP)	July 17, 2013 03:14AM
Okay, here's where I might have to light my torch and get the pitchfork.	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 09:04AM
No pitch-forks necessary. It's rather simple in my opinion.	sevriis	July 17, 2013 10:18AM
It isn't this simple	daurwyn(VIP)	July 18, 2013 12:39AM
Simplisticity + Randomness = Our brains want to believe spooky things are happening.	sevriis	July 18, 2013 07:06AM
Yes, I understand stats, cause & effect etc.	daurwyn(VIP)	July 18, 2013 11:43AM
Nothing that doesn't show in consider/improved consider. Mobs with a class > mobs without. I did leave that out but not intentionally.	sevriis	July 18, 2013 11:50AM
Seems I'm at least partly correct	daurwyn(VIP)	July 19, 2013 03:04AM
Indeed. A study with pigeons showed that when given food completely randomly, they would develop superstitious movements in order to get the food to appear. After a few confirmations they were damn near impossible to get rid of. (n/t)	Artificial	July 18, 2013 11:40AM
This should be in Wiki. (n/t)	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 10:26AM
I think being observant will let anyone figure this shit out.	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 09:12AM
If that's the case...	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 10:23AM
I should probably make getting caballed and heroing as my goal next time I play.	DurNominator(VIP)	July 17, 2013 11:53AM
Cabals are boring. Be my uncaballed hero buddy. (n/t)	Matrik	July 17, 2013 12:11PM
That's boring too since I don't have any cabalmates or things to do that way.	DurNominator(VIP)	July 17, 2013 05:16PM
I have one problem with cabals.	Murphy	July 17, 2013 06:14PM
double post, sorry (n/t)	Murphy	July 17, 2013 06:13PM
RE: 84% against people who in a very short span not only power-ranked but are a brick wall of 100% in their skill lists.	sevriis	July 17, 2013 10:30AM
It's def. a mix based on what a player wants to prioritize.	zannon	July 17, 2013 10:41AM
DBL post, please delete (n/t)	zannon	July 17, 2013 10:41AM
Good enough.	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 10:35AM
Caravan guards are a good skill practicing mob	zannon	July 17, 2013 10:29AM
That's a fair point.	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 10:32AM
If it is based solely on level of the mob	zannon	July 17, 2013 10:15AM
Couldn't you also occasionally heal, heal from the same mob? During the fight? :P (n/t)	smashtro	July 17, 2013 11:09AM
Healers have refused to heal people fighting them for a while now. "Bah!" (n/t)	sevriis	July 17, 2013 12:53PM
+9. This too should be archived, wiki-style. (n/t)	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 10:27AM
Re: In my opinion	asthiss	July 17, 2013 05:07AM
I'm not 100% positive Daurwyn's post isn't misinfo, but	Splntrd	July 17, 2013 05:50AM
I wouldn't liken these to the vine	daurwyn(VIP)	July 17, 2013 06:34AM
Wouldn't that be to the effect of	RiderOfStorms	July 17, 2013 07:14AM
I have a suspicion	daurwyn(VIP)	July 17, 2013 12:02PM
Could certainly be...	Matrik	July 17, 2013 12:13PM
I think I asked about this once.	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 06:39AM
Daev on mobs and skill gains	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 09:32AM
It is a little bit of one.	Matrik	July 17, 2013 09:37AM
Right, and if that's all there is to it (level), then there's no beef. (n/t)	The Faithful of Nazmorghul(VIP)	July 17, 2013 10:29AM
But that's not all	daurwyn(VIP)	July 18, 2013 03:13AM
Consider?	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 09:39AM
You mean the macho edge? (n/t)	Artificial	July 17, 2013 07:30PM
You know it has a downside, right? (n/t)	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 07:44PM
IMHO there's no downside for an experienced player	daurwyn(VIP)	July 19, 2013 03:08AM
I believe macho also makes it hard to flee. I could be wrong but every time I took I'd panic three or four times before fleeing. (n/t)	tesline	July 19, 2013 04:17PM
Macho definitely affects flee	Tolnum	July 19, 2013 04:52PM
It seemed so for me but I always thought it was just my imagination. (n/t)	Murphy	July 19, 2013 05:42PM
Wait... flaws give edge points?! That's news to me! nt	KoeKhaos	July 19, 2013 04:03PM
Yes, but not much	daurwyn(VIP)	July 20, 2013 02:21AM
If it blocked yells completely maybe...	Murphy	July 19, 2013 03:14AM
No yelling, cant consider, cant be rescued, gotta lead groups. Nothing else. (n/t)	Artificial	July 17, 2013 07:53PM
So it doesn't have wimpy 0%?	DurNominator(VIP)	July 18, 2013 01:53AM
You can still set wimpy.	Murphy	July 18, 2013 03:17AM
Well yeah. That's why I only took it once. (n/t)	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 07:57PM
I take flaws to enhance RP, not to power game.	Matrik	July 17, 2013 10:03AM
Noob. (n/t)	wrathpuppet	July 17, 2013 11:35AM
Boob. (n/t)	Matrik	July 17, 2013 11:58AM
So what mobs are tweeked that way? What are everyones best practice mobs? (n/t)	NbM(VIP)	July 17, 2013 07:18AM
did i have a post that was deleted? nt	The Forsaken	July 17, 2013 11:24AM
No. nt	Splntrd	July 17, 2013 06:50PM
Doesn't feel so good, does it? (n/t)	Matrik	July 17, 2013 11:32AM
Juju zombies are great for learning skills. Male/Female Tresnores in Azreth. n/t	Jerrokrar	July 17, 2013 10:01AM

A lot of people don't seem to get how the game is structured	butterfly	July 15, 2013 07:04PM
This. And I personally would be interested in a flaw that makes you gain 3 times less experience. (n/t)	Murphy	July 15, 2013 07:50PM

If everything starts at 100%, about 50% of the reason to pick elf/d-elf is gone.	vortexmagus	July 15, 2013 05:56PM

Re: Consolidation of Ranks Idea	subov	July 15, 2013 03:04PM
Seems like it is moving towards POS. Which MUD has more players on any given night, POS or Carrion Fields?	ExPaladin	July 15, 2013 02:59PM
What is POS? Short for piece of shit? (n/t)	Murphy	July 15, 2013 03:56PM
yes. (n/t)	subov	July 15, 2013 03:59PM
No! (n/t)	Murphy	July 15, 2013 01:58PM
If you fast-forward to 20, your char should be gimped. All skills at ~75% or slow learning, not perfected skills.	smashtro	July 15, 2013 12:50PM
