Guns, I can understand multishot guns getting the short end of the stick

but can single shot guns be treated as normal weapons for this bonus?

I've been playing around on my phenex during the last couple of days and found some weird little issues that became pretty apparant during the Black Beast event, I'm not getting any of the racial passives, the revive active appears to work(I havn't actually used it, but I can target something with it.).

And I'm unsure about the blindness, as I haven't been against something that actually can blind yet.
And yes, they are still in the character info page.

I've kinda been wondering lately why classes such as kensei. void assassin, and the other melee DPS classes... don't have that much DPS potential, mainly when compared to things such as an evoker. I'm mainly bothered by the issue what getting cut in half by a katana doesn't hurt nearly as bad as even a mid level AoE from an evoker, or LB, or anything else really. From a purely balance point of view, shouldn't a single-targetting swordsmen be able to do roughly the same damage as an AoE in an average fight? (which in SL2 is hitting ~3 targets, except in crazies) Couple ways come to mind to balance that out, nerf AoE, or buff physical damage. Anyway, I'm kinda just musing here, something to talk about.

Right now, the only class that benefits from high weapon weight is Arbalest (for good reasons), but, I think there's more upsides to being able to lug around a giant sword/axe/other object meant for beating people senseless than shooting it at somebody.

I'm not saying it should inherently be better to stack high weight (as your BW allows), but maybe a new class or skills or /something/ that promotes using heavier weapons and actually /wielding/ them.

I'd say the same thing for lighter weapons, but they already have the benefit of being more accessible.

Libegrande should be able to be turned by the - and + keys.

Not quite sure how to make Wind Slasher worth using though.

Note that I am aware of the issue where one of the ads was redirecting to a page (lemode-mgz) and have blocked the ad in question. It should no longer appear on the website between now and a few hours from this post. This has been affecting several websites and not just ours, such as Neogaf, etc. Anyone who uses Adsense. And to the person who made that ad, I hope something of equal annoyance happens to you as many times as that ad has redirected people.

Recently Ive seen alot of people finding themselves bored of their normal Rp considering there's not alot the players can do with the current Lore system of SL2 right now. So I thought why not see if I'm not the only one willing to try and help people spice up their RP. What better way than with a collaborative Rp brainstorming and resource group to bring it to the people who might not have the time or the paitence or creactive spirit at the time. Alot of the stuff planned and brainstormed here will possibly need GM permission or comfirmation before it can be just used in the game. Also can we not do anything like you know taking the ideas and trying to do them alone, it will only end up souring the potential of the idea and possibly cause alot of saltiness if not executed properly. Afterall, this would be to make things more interesting for as many of the other players as possible, not just ones that you may or even maynot like on an ooc level.

So with that said I'd like to keep the responses to this as positive and uncontroversial as possible. You dont have to pretend to like people here but please dont pick fights with them as if you even do respond, you'd probably have mostly the same goal in mind; to have fun and pull more people in to have fun with.

So without further adieu. Here's what I have and I'm expecting to get even more ideas form you guys. I might open a poll when enough event ideas get posted. Tell me what sounds nice and what sounds horrible and why. I might even make a skype group if enough people want to help out. My skype is Tells09 My byond keys are HoboCat and RoboCat.

Happy Positive Event/Eventchain ideas:
Cinema!-Coming from Karaten a travelling theatre! Using very expensive technology and well-done illusion magics the rare gift of cinematics is presented to the world!(I have a good idea of how this would work and think the template would be easy to create, only it would be in my opinion, difficult to convery into RP)

Neutral Event/Eventchain ideas:
Merchandice?- A mysterious merchant(s?) travels the world looking for anyone willing to buy his/her even more mysterious wares! From cursed and stolen technology to lucky charms and voodo trinkets. There's no telling what he/she may or may not have the next time you see them, if you ever do again!(Simple really most of the stuff would be IC for IC effects and things of that nature. It wouldn't be hard to come up with some awesome ideas with more than one head on the idea.)

Potentially controversial Event/Eventchain ideas:
Geistritters?- A mysterious group of hunters scour the land in search of one thing. The spiritually possessed! Seeing any and all ghosts aspotential remnants they seek to purify all possessed being and possed objects. Their only exception being Liches, considering that they are made of natural life energy instead of using the energy of others.(meh)

Vampire hunters?- Some people never learn. Some people are raised into the hatred. Either way, it results in dangerous people so overtaken with an ideal that they resort to pure violence. Considering the vast difference in the behavior of vampires, These vampire hunters could be considered some of those people. Maybe they're out to punish those who 'abuse' Hugussoa's 'gift' maybe they know many afflicted against their will, whatever the reason, their actions will always stand taller than the words they use to explain themselves. They hunt and kill vampires.(This is a slippery slope and would need some good roleplayers to work out even remotely. Period.)

00d B@113r$- Through laplace a mysterious group of criminals will literally do almost anything they think they can get away with for a price. Notorious for their information gathering it's believed that they are all ex-detectives who U-turned away from the morales they once stood for in finding truth and justice. To them there is no black or white. Only murai and information.(This is also a slippery slope anything concerning it would have to be carefully planend to avoid accidental metagaming on the roleplayer's parts. The roleplayers as in everyone involved.)

Those however were just my ideas. If I were at home I'm sure I'd remember the much longer list I had before. It was much more interesting. Anyway remember, I'm expecting you guys to post little ideas you might need help with too. The main thing needed here is communication.

Hey! Lets to Rp stuff with each-other! Only without ooc bullcrap and the spontaneous nub-attacks, we could all coordinate some player-made events pretty well I think so if you're interested let me know below and give some ideas you might want to share.

I suggest the reduction /removal of reloading.

Overcharge has only recently seen use with one overcharge, now that the damage will be changed to magic damage, it won't be as useful, many of the effects are still looked over since they don't last as long as the reloading does.

Reloading should be atleast changed so that at max rank one use of the skill should make the gun ready to use again. ( a courtesy atleast arbalests have with reload accel)

Can Covering Fire and Parting shot use the range of your weapon? Honestly I find it silly that to provide someone with covering fire, I have to be within 4 squares of an enemy to 'fire at them willy nilly'. Same goes for parting shot whenever my rifle has like 8 range. And can Volley Formation effect such things? I'd really like if it affected single target spells as well, such as Rye, Ryemei, Libegrande, etc. as well so that the class has more utilitarian use with a spell splinger if you have volley formation out rather than just. "Well the only thing that I have that helps a mage is... Casting Order... Sorry!"

The only issue I can see with Volley Formation effecting skill ranges as well as basic attack ranges is possibly things like Pulling Shot having 12 or so range but. Tactician is kind of weak-sauce for solo play and gains more momentum with a team and even then, it might still be better just to be a dedicated healer/damager.
