For those of you who don't know: a few days prior, Dev entertained the idea of a Dragoon promoted class over OOC, which was requested by some of the players. Though I don't know how seriously he took it at the time, I decided to create some possible abilities for it anyway, in hopes that some of them will be taken for consideration. Note that I'm a returning player and thus have been "out of the loop" over Sigrogana 2's developments for a time, so if any of my suggestions go against the flow of the game, feel free to correct them (and in the case of Dev, if he reads this, adjust it any way he likes). Also, due to my weakness in the subject of math, feel free to suggest alternate calculations and the like.


New Duelist Promotion: Dragoon



Pros:

Finally, a class that focuses on the use of spears!
Combat style based on being Airborne or not
Incredible movement options
Synergy with classes that can hover

Cons:

Due to the focus on spears, using anything other than one will not benefit you
Monks will likely counter this class
Focus on Wind and Lightning skills hurts one's elemental selection
Not even trying to hide the reference to FF's famous class

Can getting a Great Success on enchanting possibly not consume the catalyst when it occurs? There's currently nothing that can be gained from greatly succeeding on enchanting.

Just inside of Law's End, and the surrounding badlands of Gold, a rumor has started spreading about a bar.. A bar for those with nowhere else to go, nothing else to do. A bar so crammed to the brim with criminals, degenerates and the otherwise downtrodden that so much as blinking could get you stabbed, short, impaled, or otherwise coming down with a case of the deadsies.

The owners of this bar seem to have made a name for themselves too. Two ruthless psychopaths who stop at nothing short of full blown torture AND murder to get what they want. Their names? Rabbit and Hare...

If you think you've got what it takes to work the roughest crowd in Gold, just need a job, or have some kind of love for sadomasochism, maybe you should swing by The Mix, have a word with their owner and see about getting a job, chummer.
Just watch out, the Snakes don't take too kindly to people loitering without a reason.

[That OOC Section:

Put essentially, The Mix needs staff. We also need people who can fill a more ambient role for the bar. Chums that take up seats, regulars that come for a drink now and then etc. There's only so much we can do with NPC fluffing and sleazing after all.

If you're interested in becoming a bartender, bouncer, other whacket. Contact me via the forums, or via discord at Ryuzaki#8667, we'll work out a time to get things rolling IC for you.]

Topic.

All equipment I wear that uses my UL for any reason takes my level as 1, Despite being 54. Amulet of Leviathan, For example, Heals 2fp and hp per kill. I have no idea why. My character name is Armurhan. - I haven't played in almost a year and returning most of my newly aquired loot does not function.

Fangs, the boss of the Whirlpool Black Door Phenomena seems to have its Rampage attack bugged to where the following happens:
After four consecutive turns of not basic attacking a target as per usual for activation of Rampage, it will activate the skill and the bar will appear on screen showing its name, but nothing will happen.

Hi, so i've ran into some trouble which is: I can install one of my youkai. I have 3 contracted, 2 bonded, and all of a sudden the install slot for one of my bonded becomes another youkai.

when i tried to use it, it installed me with apus instead.

help.

Two hand is just a little bit strong, I feel its taken dual-wielding and especially daggers out of the picture when it comes to damage, it also scales both autohits and basic attacks alike pretty well, it could probably make do with a bit of a damage cut since its very easy to hit 20 weight on a weapon nowadays thanks to remain materials.


I'd propose that Two hand remain at 10% extra damage when fulfilling its normal conditions, and be increased by 50% when your weapon is 20 weight or more, so that it becomes 15% extra SWA.

Under the "Scavenger" line in the Harvest Talent tree, it states "Boosts the chance of finding wood and food at old campfires", but no food has been added to the drop tables. So, here's a suggestion: Add a few basic food items to the drops which would in turn be boosted by the Harvest skill.

Old Campfire additions:

Most likely:

Egg
Stick of Butter
Phial of Salt
Sugar
Flour
Uncooked Noodles
Mixed Nuts

Less likely:

Cooking Chocolate
Cheese Wedge
Milk
Spices
Riceball
Loaf of Bread

In addition, herb harvesting points in forest-themed dungeons could be added to add vegetable and fruit-related drops:

Uncooked Rice
Pumpkin
Strawberry
Cranberry
Tomato
Yam
Carrot
Onion
Mushrooms
Watermelon
Cinnamon
Potato
Cherry
Lettuce
Eggplant

Why are Apples, Bananas, and Grapes not included, you ask? Because I hope that eventually, trees will drop these fruit!

Alternative Suggestions

The addition of Nest search points, where Eggs and Chicken Meat will be dropped, and quite possibly Beef


Hope you caught this, Dev!
