So, Invocations are working exactly how they said they were forever ago. I took a 350~ damage vydel whilst invoking and .still. somehow was invoking.

I have 86 WIL in combat. If it worked as advertised < See: ((350-86)/2) > Then it should have been broken.

Instead, it didn't break until I casted graft on myself forgetting. I tested this twice.

As it is currently, R5 invocation talent is doing

(DMG/2)-WIL which is pretty much completely unfair. If I take 350 damage my invocation should break considering the attack NEARLY KILLED ME.

Way to fix: Throw the division in later rather than the total damage being divided. It says it does otherwise on the talent so yeah.

You can Blink into bushes, becoming untargetable.

If you are thinking about it, it isn't too late to back out.

With the newest update it would appear that raging gust traps do not trigger at all now, when stepped on by another player.

Edit:

Upon further testing in another battle, they -did- indeed trigger. The cause of the inital non-triggering is unknown...

2- In another fight they declined to trigger once more. I used crystal wind to move the opponent to make them trigger it, which usually works great but not now.

Leveling up youkai doesn't seem to raise their friendship level. I tested on a level one youkai for about four levels, and the bar hasn't budged a millimeter yet. Is there a certain number of levels you have to do?

It should be noted that Poison and Burn do basically the exact same thing, a turn based damage status effect that deals damage every turn, that's great, its a staple among most RPGs, however I believe that there could be a possible change to give it a bit more interesting elements other than "Hah, now you're taking damage every turn."

Generally poisons kick in faster when the victim is moving, and after a while impedes movement, so I propose that poison damage be lowered, however it lowers the Victim's move by 1(or several depending on the poison level) and doubles the damage of the poison if the target moved in the same turn.

Burns hurt, and when anywhere on your body is burnt taking sudden movements can hurt even more, I propose lowering burn damage, but making it so the target using an attack or melee skill while burnt will double the burn damage.

A few other suggestions could be made but it seems like this could be a fun addition to two rather dull statuses and giving players a way to strategize, adapt and counter play those statuses, thanks for reading.

[float=left][/float] I know what it looks like, but I assure you. This almost certainly isn't a preparatory update for something else. You believe me, right? ... Well, anyway. Lots of youkai related stuff, including a new Youkai. So if you're a summoner, you'll probably be interested.

If you aren't, there are bug fixes, which are nice too. Or, what, you like bugs? Tough break. I don't. At least not the programming related ones.

Youkai Friendship - A new system has been added; Youkai Friendship. Youkai now have a friendship meter in the contract manager that represents how much they like you. The meter will go up by giving the Youkai gifts and leveling them up. Friendship will go down slightly if the Youkai is reduced to 0 HP or if they are unsummoned due to lack of Focus. If Friendship is too low, the Youkai may misbehave, so be sure to make nice.
Youkai Gifts - Youkai gifts can be obtained rarely at any resource node that requires a pickaxe to use.
Summoning Houses - 2 new summoning houses have been added (1 in Chaturanga, 1 in Lispool).
New Youkai - 1 new Avian Youkai has been added.
Adjusted - Overload bonus damage has been decreased to 3 per point (from 5).

Two new settings for Preferences involving chat panel font size, Default and Large.

Default would keep size as is.

Large would put it somewhere close to size 16 or 18 Arial (according to Google Drive).

For some reason I have got a bug or something where the character box has become a long thin line making it so I can not do anything. No one in chat has been able to help change it although I have been given a way to brute force my way onto the game. I have tried relogging , resizing, altering resolution, clearing cache, uninstalling and reinstalling byond, and other work arounds given by the playerbase nothing fixes the problem however I can access one character with the save-load method. This issue persists over multiple keys.

House Furniture Adjusting can cause lag to those near you, if they are in the house whilst you are doing it.

Not sure if this lag is much worse than that, or just a local thing.
