Currently, APT gives +1% bonus xp per point

I suggest we replace the APT bonus by a simple +50% xp bonus across the game. It's just strange to tie this crucial bonus to a stat, especially since it's not stated anywhere.

Lanky Ginger used Intense Observation.
Derpy Theno was intensely observed, removing the following effects: Crest of the Hare, Fear, Miragewalk


Intense Observation is.. getting rid of fear? I guess???

Edit: Nevermind. Ruled By Emotion moment.

Because of item synergies with swapping weapons I think that the part of Katana Master that says the buff is dispelled if you swap weapons should be removed, I think this passive should also extend beyond that but for now I am simply requesting the following:

Please allow Kensei to be able to swap their weapon to another Katana without losing Katana Master, this would open up Deadly Shades and Shifty Pocket to them which they just cannot access without a permanent loss of some kind right now.

This is unique only to Kensei in such a way that it seems completely arbitrary at this point.

I use an amethyst headstaff that has the deploy Talis skill. The Talis itself spawns in perfectly fine. However when I try to target any of my earth spells with the talis as the center the targeting is super wonky. Isendo wont let me target the talis as the center at all no matter what I do. Magaisendo, auto aims at the talis but in a single direction. If you try to re-aim where you want it to go, the aim automatically teleports back to your character as the center for the attacks aim. Stone Dragon is the same as Magai-Sendo. I havent tried it with Isenshi as I didn't think it would let me anyway given its an invocation.

Is there anything I can do to fix this or is this just a targeting bug.

Applicable BYOND Key - Someoneidk

Character Name - Davira Moonthorn

Request Type - Character/Ability; Shapeshifting Contract

Request Details -  

A contract with a Youkai that shares the Summoner’s body with them, acting as permanent Shapeshifting, if only more dangerous due to its nature, if only more beneficial. Here, it is being used with an Apus, granting avian features, and affinity to light magic; Alongside helping the Papilion stay sane, and lessening the effects of illusions on her, self-caused or otherwise.

Specific Request -

Wings; Allowing for floating off the ground and gliding, though flight would still require magical assistance, such as spells that create air shafts.

Scales/Talons; Scattered scales akin to a bird along the arms and legs, with sharp talons replacing nails, the right arm is covered fully in scales, as an entirely new appendage had to be grown.

Enhanced reflexes, parallel-thinking; Being two minds within one body, reflexes are naturally enhanced, alongside the ability to think, or focus on two separate things at once, if need be.

Illusion resistance; A resistance to the effects of illusions, from Davira suffering constant illusions herself, and the Youkai helping her see past them, by acting as a second set of senses, if spiritual in nature, leading to visual illusions becoming transparent, and others to be dulled, though depending on the level of illusion magic, she can still be tricked.

Reason why you are making this request (if applicable) - 

I’ve been wanting to get back into playing Davira after she got Tarnished, but I felt like I wanted to do something new with her, and try out a build that I haven’t before, which is Bonder/Priest. While it isn’t Shapeshifter, that kind of class would see active shapeshifting, compared to a one-and-done shapeshift; Meanwhile, Bonder as a class is about friendship with a Youkai, and you’d have to be pretty good friends if you’re going to share a body. I think this all should be possible within the lore, and within reason, but I'm making an app just in case, regardless.

Roleplay & Lore supporting your request - 

As a Papilion, Davira has always been tormented by the hanging star, by her mind, and by constant illusions of a world that truly never existed, which leads to her being scattered, easily distracted, and never truly learning, even after exilement from Meiaquar, losing her right arm, and then from Duyuei, where she was tarnished.

She sought out Telegrad for therapy, but even that didn’t seem to work for her, falling into the same habits again and again, causing her to leave and become a hermit, while she looked for a solution herself, no matter what it cost- Perhaps it was her insanity that lead her to summoning, to shapeshifting, that she knew was dangerous, that she knew the downsides of, yet she still wanted to learn it, for it could make her sane, gain her a new arm,

After months of living by herself, seeking out Youkai, she finally found one to make a contract with, an Apus, a Youkai so free, a shining beacon of light, in her world of darkness, one that would see past the illusions for her, one that would think with her, fill in the gaps of that shattered mind, the shapeshifting was painful, she had to learn how to live again sharing a body, only returning more months later, born anew, different, not quite the same person, but hopefully sane, even if the cracks still show through.

Many centuries ago, Huggessoa created the Vampires as we know them on Sigrogana. To this day, they lurk in the night. And although vampires are generally tolerated in G6 society, most commonfolk still see them as inherently evil.


On the flip side, Korvara is a land untouched by vampirism... Well... At least, until now...

Korvara Vampirism

Completely unrelated to G6 vampires, a new epidemic has recently struck the island of Korvara. Though they have gone unnoticed for a few years now, the urban legends are starting to become strikingly real, and many people swear they're real. The citizens of the 4 nations swear they've had a friend or a cousin fall victim to a peculiar creature- a monster in human guise, that prowls the night and feeds on the innocents!

But how did they come to exist? Well, the legend goes like this...

Vampirism is a curse. A magical disease that is transmitted by blood. However, the first vampire was born from something known as the Original Curse. This event is only a theory, but it's said that a powerful artifact of the ruins known as the Blood Tear was found in an expedition, and returned secretly to a rich benefactor who was sponsoring the mission. After he was obsessed with the item for a while, it eventually fused with him, and fundamentally changed his being.

The artefact is said to have an insatiable thirst for blood, acting as a sort of symbiotic parasite. It requests blood, and in exchange, will grant power and everything the soul desires...

From that point, the curse of vampirism could be spread by having the host's blood get drank by a new candidate. Though at first it was a closed-off cabal, the curse has spread to many new members, and eventually was passed around without oversight from the original chosen. The first Vampires were careful to blend in with society and avoid drawing suspicion, but now that the curse is out into the wide world, the best that Vampires can do is hope that nobody will find out about their true nature... Tainted by a trace of the original curse, their bodies have changed in an imperceptible but fundamental way. Even far detached from the artifact, the curse remains, impossible to remove as it is now a part of their soul.

THE RACE

Korvara Vampires are born by performing a ritual where an individual person drinks the blood of an existing vampire.

Like Huggessoan vampires, they harbor a weakness to light and holy weaponry due to their soul which is tainted by a curse similar to undeath.

They can eat food, but prefer to drink blood. Without drinking any blood, they may become increasingly irritable and even violent, going on a rampage if they get a taste after not having any for a long time. However, some vampires can survive without blood for long periods of time.

Korvara vampires are not immortal, but their life is prolonged roughly twofold. By drinking blood regularly, it can even go in the hundreds of years, but never drinking blood will slightly reduce their lifespan compared to their normal race.

They gain power from drinking blood as they can absorb the focus from it.

MECHANICALLY

Differences from Huggessoa Vampire:
- These vampires do not turn into mist upon death.
- They don't need to be killed with a holy weapon to properly die.
- They aren't immortal, instead they only have an unnaturally long life.

• Sleigher, Sky Mantis Scythe - Now a scythe weapon.
  

• Divine Shower now displays the damage total it deals over its multiple hits instead of individual damage instances in the chat box.
  

so there is like 2 floating points in Dancer if you destiny bard and take the perk that gives you an extra, the only element one would be lacking is dark, a dark attack similar to thunder step may be nice, maybe more range so that it doubles as movement ability-

so I have two different issues, on the jade insect whistle, I DON'T want the summon to show up but there is nothing to do about it

then there is the spine leash which I got in specific because ghost dog but if your mercenaries are off it is gone

a toggle to decide if a weapon summon should show up being a separate thing would be nice
