Evade has a tough time existing in the current game of Rocket Tag that is "I have 360 hit."

Which, as Filia has shown, is unfortunately a thing that Can Exist. Between hitting 280 hit on your own, if not higher, with the +50 bonus (which Evade only can get to.. GENERALLY, 210~215 before things become next-to-impossible to pass through)... Hit gets an added bonus in the terms of Flanking.

Flanking is a modifier that can just give + (10+GUI) hit to you if you have an ally adjacent to them and hit their rear. Without an ally adjacent, you can get + ((10+GUI)/2) hit if you smack their rear end. Which... doesn't sound like a lot, but for flanking someone and getting +35 hit. It gets nutty quick. Especially if the person ALREADY has hit their +50 hit cap bonus. Making 280 hit into.. 305. Which makes it a Near Guaranteed attack.

Hit Negative stacking was removed from field tiles because being able to get -70 to someone's hit was toxic.

Flanking needs to just start counting as Bonus Hit that is limited to the +50 cap, because evade already is eating shit most days of the week whenever they can't get their buffs up or Evade Ignore spam (Legitimately almost died to a summoner throwing out sazae oni / Suzaku to double-tap me before I could kill either).

Give Prinny a dagger. So its basic hits don't happen twice every turn.

This is so due to how Bare Fists's two strikes spam your Player-Debug like crazy when you're just trying to check for your evade and hit, for example.

Static Air's 'damage' bonus effect says it deals Level times 5. Which is, in solo usage.. 5 * 5 = 25...

But the skill itself actually does 5 * 5 * 3. For.. Whatever reason.

Grand Finale's repeat action tracking reset doesn't reset the skill that actually defeats the monster.

I used Attack on a firefox which didn't kill it, then Double Dao which did. As you can see, Attack is back down to 3m (only one pictured, but I checked both in case I misremembered which I used), but Double Dao shows a 4m cost. Grand Finale otherwise worked as intended (I got the +3m and 3 stacks of Heaven Below).




I noticed this earlier with Warp Strike not resetting, which would be an actually nice skill to chain, but didn't think much of it at the time and didn't take a screenshot then.

Request Details -  Body Hydrofication! I know what you're thinking "but zeri, that's not a real word".. And I concede that you may just be correct on that one. What I actually mean is that my character is capable of liquifying her body partially, kind of like Suigetsu from Naruto, you know Suigetsu from Naruto, right? Of course you do.

Specific Request - Due to a unique core, this homunculi's body, or rather the mud that was used to make it, was heavily diluted with a special kind of enchanted water, due to this she is resistant to
physical damage (drowned woman install), she is capable of reforming her body and recovering from physical wounds rather quickly as long as she is able to keep in contact with water, and is capable of going through obstacles such as grates. This ability is hampered by nullstone. She is difficult to injure permanently unless a strike hits her core.

She is also particularly weak to freezing magic as it simply freezes the water she is made out of and makes her breakable, and also weak to interference as it prevents her from reforming properly.

She is not capable of altering her body at will, it tends to just reform itself, she does become somewhat smaller if she loses water without regaining it.. She can never become too small through, as the core would simply be unable to fit.

Reason why you are making this request (if applicable) - I want to portray Drowned woman install in a different and unique way, and portray monster spine healing through her reforming. And make a character with unique strengths and weaknesses. Also suigetsu is fucking cool.

Roleplay & Lore supporting your request - Homunculi are wacky, there's plenty of unique quirks one can come up when making one, the core for this one is meant to be a unique-one off kind of deal where it was created through an artifact, it is not something that can be easily replicated.

Ear Injuries still muffle Combat Messages. Things like forced say (Invocations) and Stance Switching (Demon Hunter).

Thesis: Omina is in a problem spot right now.






There are a few notable traits about Omina that keep them from greatness. Their stat distribution isn't terrible, but it is lackluster compared to other species and, lore-wise, doesn't totally match up. Their racial abilities are screwy and they lack a racial identity that makes them stand out as an option.





What follows is the result of a detailed discussion between three Omina players about how to resolve the issues with Omina and breathe interest into the class as a whole.






Approach One: The Stat Switcheroo





This is the easiest approach to implement, but too many changes risks invalidating the work that players have put into their builds. Hesitance when it comes to stat redistribution is definitely warranted, but Omina are desperately in need of adjustments.




Lore-wise, what kinds of stats work well for an Omina? The answer feels easy, but a quick overview of each stat and where it sits for then right now reveals complications.




Omina favor evasion builds. They have CEL 7 and LUCK 4, both of them justified as having 'supernatural senses for danger'. These together are so overwhelmingly strong that any attempt to build outside the paradigm of the species (I run a Destiny Mage myself!) is fighting against their statblock... but what does their statblock do for them? They have GUI 2, which means they can't use guns very well. STR 4 gives them access to some Ranger approaches, and WIL 4 means that they have magic options open to them. Even so, nobody plays Omina to be good at dodging; they'll play species like Redtail or Felidae to maximise their ability to dodge. They won't play Omina for their damage output, either. A crit-based build could find success, but at what cost?

Quote:While many Omina see their curse as that and nothing more, there are those who manage to become intune with it, learning to harness its potential and managing to assert some amount of control over it, having it target those who they wish to inflict with ill-fatedness, ranging from a simple inconvenience, to something potentially fatal.

For a bit, I've been working on a program to allow you to convert logs into a more human readable format, and now I have a first release candidate for that. I plan to maintain it as long as I'm active in SL2, and if I'm not, it's primary Github is here.

Basically you can load any log file you save from `Help -> Download Latest Chat Log` and boot it up in the program to suit it to your settings. Having a character who runs therapy, logging can be kinda rough sometimes, and I wanted something to make that a lil easier.

Within the program, there's little tooltips that let you know what to do.

Any logs should generally be placed in 'put_logs_here', which will let the program autoload them on start, but when in the program there are ways to open them from just about anywhere.

As with the Calculator, Any suggested/requested features or bugs should be sent here, in PMs, or on Discord. With Discord, if that becomes too much, I will let people here know that.

Anyways, here's your...

Request Details - 


I would like to have a character use ink based magic to keep it simple, primarily for flavoring purposes but I have other things planned that are rp centric such as simple creatures and the like that have a very short duration, tattoos and naturally art. For the purpose of entertainment and empowering others with short-term tattoos for more exciting and chaotic fights using EM aid.

There were plans for fights to be setup in which I wished to icly create very short term creatures to fight, or to use things such as tattoos with magical ink (That take time, much focus and effort to prepare) for very short term and limited boosts as an in lore excuse for buffs and the like for more fun in such fights for others or for creatures to excuse stronger creatures or animals.

Such things are intentionally limited and draining so as to have limits in place and to not extend it to other things for something more impactful. It is very intended to be contained.

The description for the PEARL describes the constellation as being close to Venus, when it should say Mercury.
