Crane Hop is a 1M Blink with less cost and a skill, not a spell or anything like that. And so far it has proven to be ridiculous enough to the point where people can't really fight back.

I don't think the problem is with the ability itself though. I believe it's the range.

I suggest changing it to:

Rank 1: 2 range
Rank 2: 3 range
Rank 3: 4 range hop.

After a crash happened, I noticed I was missing my passage papers (and maybe a few other equipment stuff that I didn't care about). This was easily corrected by having another interview with Air.
It did not dawn on me that I was also missing my oracle card, which is something not easily corrected as Matsuri just blankly stares at me when I ask for a new one.



When I click on "Yes, I would like to register.":



There is no box being hidden under all my other windows, nothing. It's just blank. Which is funny, because the game will still tell me when I've completed laplaceNET requests that I took pre-crash.

Had a 100% hit basic glove.

149 Glove Weapon

142 Dodge

MA with 149 Hit (R0 Trained Fists)

The fist has 1% Hit, which doesn't line up.

---------------------------

So, Pretty much refer to http://neus-projects.net/viewtopic.php?f...tion#p1725 for how I tested this stuff.

Anyways, PFA is giving...

+0/+16/+16/+16/+16 currently. Which just seems odd, since before it was just giving +16 in total.

Unarmored Prowess is just giving +20, +30 vs Guns ((Can't find anything else it gives +30 against)).

That's the gist of it.

Clearly as the most important food item, it is completely necessary.

Hand trigger does not work with entangle trap. It detonates it but doesn't trigger its effects or damage. All other traps seem to be working fine though.

This is mostly a reminder for myself whenever I decide to actually iron out the SL2 Wiki, but if someone wants to take up some of these points, feel free.

• Clean up and add missing sections to the Main Page. The Update Log on the Main Page is not only outdated, but unnecessary; it should be removed and replaced with a simple line or two that gives the current version number (and if needed, external links to the forums and/or byond page). Several sections are not listed on the Main Page, forcing the user to use the search bar to find them. For the user's convenience, all overarching categories need to be linked up on the Main Page.
  
  Update outdated, uninformative, overcompensating and/or ignored content. There are many additions to the game (I.e. Skills) that either haven't been added in, or haven't been updated to the current version. There is also content that gives little or unfitting information (the Items List page is guilty of this), especially when said information has a lot of variables (I.e. Weapons). Additionally, the 10 Star Items page goes mostly by uploaded pictures, forcing the user's side to load more data than if everything was mostly in text with equipment icons slapped next to the appropriate names. Each of these issues needs to be appropriately rectified.
  
  Consolidate information into as little pages as possible, and delete unnecessary pages. There are a good chunk of pages that contain information either better suited within a larger page, or contains too little info to actually require a page of its own. The Traits pages are especially guilty of this, not only requiring a page for every single trait, but also linking those pages through several more pages based on the area those traits apply to, when all of that info can be easily placed and organized within a single page. A thorough search of page content is needed, with insufficient pages deleted and their content transferred to relevant pages.
  
  Double-check established page contents. There are pages with content of questionable inclusion. For instance, is it necessary to give a Strength/Weakness breakdown for each class, especially when we are currently in an unrestricted dual-class system? Is it necessary to give the specific terms for Combat Mechanics and Statistics in the Main Page?
  
  Provide needed image content. The Wiki can always use more visual aid, especially for skills/traits/etc. that don't have their icons uploaded.
  
  Provide basic and/or complex formatting as needed. I've seen what this kind of Wiki is capable of. It should not be impossible to optimize how content is formatted. Proper tables are going to be a necessity, as well.
  
  Provide additional clean-up and maintenance as needed. So far, the Wiki has been a mess in both appearance and accessibility. While the pointers above will be able to clean the Wiki up and provide a much more user-friendly experience, it also needs to be checked and given minor updates on a regular basis.

Happy Holidays! I really wanted to finish this earlier and have time to do something holiday celebratory in SL2 but sadly, time didn't work out in my favor. But, anyway, this time it's Martial Artist's turn!

What can I say about the skills added this time... Well, they didn't get much in the way of offensive skills, for one thing! The majority of the skills they received are in fact passive ones, but a few of them let you be more creative with combining MA classes with others. Aside from that, some of the existing skills got changes, as you might expect, and a lot of the Monk/Verglas skills were updated to the new Power formula.

1.45
New Martial Artist Skills - The Martial Artist base class has received 7 new skills, including 2 main class only skills.

Kip up is one of the worst offenders for "Why should we use this class? Oh right, this one innate."

It gives, practically, KD immunity, but also is something that you just simply.. get. 3 SP to fully remove the possibility of ever getting KD'd. What do I suggest?

Two things, I guess. Remove the ability to Kip-up whilst in heavy (or maybe even light!) armor. If removing the ability to kip-up in light, add the ability for it to only restore some of your momentum, rather than all. It makes it quite a bit better than it is now with BK's just.. nabbing Monk Main because "Oh, I can get 10% resist all and a ton of other stuff? Nifty."

It really helps. While we're at it.. can we please-please-please look at how overwhelmingly good MA is as a base class? Like, it's already stellar, but.. maybe nerfing some things in it will make it somewhat better than tossing a ton of new skills at it without balancing what it already has.

Complaints I have; I guess... Which also leads to one of their better Promotions.
Meditate: SKI healing. Pretty good, actually.
Shukuchi: A more costly Charge that doesn't get neat stuff attached to it.
Kip Up: Need I say more?
Dodge Strike: Actually useless a good chunk of the time.
Dodge Innates: Pretty good, 'balanced' sort of.
Cleanse Body: It's.. a WIL based.. skill.. in a class that.. doesn't actually get WIL growths that well. This really should be changed to just use SKI instead. Everyone gets a decent bit of SKI. Not many get good WIL.
Class: This class is good for EVERYONE. Don't have the stats for it? No problem, use and abuse it for its innates.

MONK COMPLAINTS ARE WORSE THOUGH.
Every stat is an offensive stat, even your defense!
Literally everyone wants this class mained because 10% Resist all OP.
Aid: Yet another time where the class has a skill that.. isn't based on any stat it gains??? This is literally a free shitton of healing for High WIL characters that also generates a decent bit of KI to get to 10% resist all quicker. It also.. moves you some? Which is kinda nice, because it forces most people to move back into melee with you.
BoI: Fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk your powerful attack that you've spent 2+ turns telegraphing. I don't care.
Dense Thunder: TRAIL OF THE DRAGON. ((Free Knockdown for days. And if you're slower than your opponent, you'll never suffer the negatives of losing KI because you'll regen it by next round))

After picking up some Bloody Palms and upgrading it with 8 raremetals, it should be applying a LV 16 Claret Call. Which, if I understand claret call correctly, would cause me to do 16 more damage when I hit a marked target.

After a bit of testing, this was the results:

56 blunt, 56 blunt VS Legume


63 blunt, 63 blunt w/ Rising Kick vs Critter


I'm using a basic attack with a Fist Weapon, and the Claret Call is not changing anything.
