they can be, but not right now, and each monster we have uses up an iron maiden that could be used to capture -more- monsters.

So uh. Am I undead? And Gilda and Becka? Are they?

Are you white with red eyes? If not, you're not undead.

It's worth noting I guess that after a bunch of new mages started deploying they were copy pastes of me, and so ALSO had the red eyes, but Jackie didn't?

I think you're fine. You would have been made more obviously zombified if you were a zombie.

I wonder how much we get for selling a zombified teammate, for purely speculative reasons, of course.

I do not appreciate being told I must give up my own hard earned work. I also do not appreciate you good sir for making assumptions on what I will do. Any bounty turned in MUST be by the ones who had done the killing. Your calculations are thus in error. Alll you get to claim are the two voidspawn you yourself claimed. If you wish to split that with the others I good sir have no objection.

I am the one with the live Possessed Scholar. It was different from the others in that the the squid thing had one eye.

>I would like to turn it in for the reward.

I believe that gives me 2000z as I had no other kills.

>Buy Stalkers
>Buy 8 more chains
While I prefer my main weapon getting a little dirty is sometimes necessary.

Which leaves me to my banking
>bank 1400zenny

>>42301346
More than fair assessment. Though I'd argue that you only got that chance to capture it at all because you had mages and everyone else fighting the boss, the skeletons, moving forward for you to deploy at all.

But it is your bounty and you get to make that call yourself.

We're at 12,790 full grouping (until we understand how much the blood market is willing to spend on the other monsters)
491.923077 spread out across 26 people, including you Livia so you'll want to increase your banking by that much. (Also don't forget the money you earned from hook and pulling people onto the ship if you did that to anybody.)

That's 491 base per person, with 24 left over to split between Jackie and Poka at 12 each.

>>42301346
You don't think that you getting 2000z while the rest of us have less than 500 apiece is a little unbalanced?

>>42301474
once again told to stop putting anything in. Which is fair. But frankly I think we're better off putting this all into a single goddamn pot and boosting everyone's survival chances. But give the situation, we're back to a 307zenny per head split with everyone, and an 18 zenny split.

Burkhard.
A pair of botted characters
And Questie each have a 958z payout.

I have 1916 from the pair I blew the fuck up.

Anybody who wasn't able to claim a bounty themselves, or split their bounties into the pot is welcome to ask me to fork in part of that to help them pay for stuff they need. But otherwise it's split too finely to be worth increasing everyone when split 26 ways. So I'll help who I can.

My near-final personal zenny is 307+230 for 537 zenny.

Again, anybody who simply didn't get a bounty, or did and put it into the pot, is more than welcome to ask me to help them buy stuff. I hope I'll receive the same kindness in turn.

>>42301594
No no Owl. Don't be that way. It's his bounty. Legitimately from top to bottom. We can't gainsay him that. What does it matter that he only showed up in the last few rounds when most of the danger had past? Or that he had other people keeping shit off of him long enough to grab it?

It was -his- bounty! And if that's how he wants to play it that's perfectly fine. We'll take it into consideration when splitting bounties in future.

>>42301651
>It was -his- bounty! And if that's how he wants to play it that's perfectly fine. We'll take it into consideration when splitting bounties in future.
When I play in future I'm going to be taking it into consideration when I fucking -play- not just when I'm splitting my bounties. Anybody who pulls what H4 just did can forget getting shit from me.

>>42301594
>>42301651
I am completely enraged that I had no say in the matter. That it was claimed and split like the village pot roast. Maybe if I had been at least asked I would have said yes, of course I shall share it. Right now? My temper is too foul. I wish you both good day and I will not hear more of it.

>>42301691
I hope H4 never needs to get Hook and Pulled onto a Ward again, like what happened on this floor.

I might not be available for such a task, after all.

Oh well, I'm sure that numerous bounty will cover it.

>>42301733
I'm sorry you've had to go through this.
You can have my portion of the zeny I received if that helps lessen the hurt.
Apart from the 10z I spent on water.

>>42301816
My thanks kind sir. But you shall need the money more then I... in fact I shall personally give you 100z from my bank for being the first kind soul I have met on this day. I shall not see a single cent given to those that attempt to steal like common rabble and thieves.
>Withdraw 100z and give it to Moore

>>42301733
Then I apologize for my actions. I made assumptions I shouldn't have. I hope you feel better about this in the future.

>>42301844
Thank you, but I really don't need the money right now.
I can always make some money on the next floor.
I'd rather keep things civil between everyone.
A happy team is one step closer to not getting killed due to grievances while on the floor.

>>42301846
>>42301844
I actually deserve to give you a deeper apology than this Livia.

Let me start from the top here.

I was wrong, in the entirety, to claim your bounty for the common group. You are absolutely right that I should have asked you too.

I blew up, and I acted like an overbearing asshole, but my temper doesn't excuse my actions in the least.

I hope we can still work together on the floors ahead.

Screw it. Split my share between yourselves, there's nothing I need to buy.

>>42301948
Good sir. While your actions were beyond the pall I shall accept your apology. While I cannot give the entire 2000 now, as I have spent a portion of it. I shall give the rest to the group to do as they wish. That is 1300z.

>Withdraw the money from the bank.
>Share it equally with everyone.

So uhh... I missed a lot at the end and I havent kept track on everyone I healed last thread or what to do here really... Halp?

>>42302051
just track everyone you healed atleast once Meterios, and a second time if you revived them at different time (moved them up from 0 HP)

>>42302073
I have to go through all the threads now then cause no one told me so I havent kept check at all... Newly awake atm so I am a bit confused by all this. I can still level up I guess? Do I start at level 0 or 1 btw?

>>42302092
Lvl.1 You'll get a new ability from your list, or you can upgrade directly to an advanced class (but doing so means you can't grab any more base class skills)

>>42302102
I am gonna stick to being a guide right now, feels like a good thing really. So its just picking up a new skill then?

>>42302121
>I am gonna stick to being a guide right now
This is the best choice. Because when you go to an advanced class you can no longer level your basic guide skills, you will have need of all 4 of them. Get to level 3 when you will have all 4 basic skills, then go Advanced.

>>42302153
Provided you dont die in the meantime ^^;;

>>42302153

so I will pick up Ward since it seemed to be needed a lot last map.

>>42302050
Thank you Livia.

Further deliberation results.

The 4 NPCs are cut from all of this. The assumption being that they took their cut from the bounty for the floor entirely.

We have 1300+1916+8000=11216
Divided 22 ways is 509.818182.

That's 509 a player. With 18 to spare. So Poka and Jackie both get 9z extra.

There are still 3 bounties unaccounted for.
>Scholar's Kill
>The Mage/Hunter SE Combo, botted.
>Burkhard's saving of [R1]Becky

>>42302121
Yep

So gonna have to check through all the threads now to see how many people I healed... Cause I did a lot of it.

Also what does those Guilds do?

>>42302051
>So uhh... I missed a lot at the end and I havent kept track on everyone I healed last thread or what to do here really... Halp?
The same happened to me when I was a fresh Guide. You will need to go back through all the threads and find all of you heals. It is a painful process, I know.

In the future just keep a record as you are making the heals (I just keep track of them in a text file), it makes it so much easier at the end of the floor. And check posts if you get botted, so you don't miss any.

>>42302207
>I will pick up Ward
Good choice. I remember when you were brand new and confused. You've picked it up really quick.

>>42302198
>Provided you dont die in the meantime
We are talking about a Guide, Guides rarely die. But yes every time you die you just have to climb that much higher.

>>42302236
>So gonna have to check through all the threads now to see how many people I healed... Cause I did a lot of it.
Remember you only claim credit for each unique PC or NPC 1 time for healing and once for revive (heal at 0 (or less)HP).

You should have a good total.

>>42302214
We also have, potentially, 4 other squid/ghost kills
>Velen Water Bolted a pair
>A hunter killed several

Oh, also given Burkhard's bounty, two other people should get it too.
>A guide cleansed one of them off Velen's head
>Whoever rescued G1 from being possessed, I believe V1, Becky.

So the question is, do we get paid for killing the possessing ghosts -before- they possessed somebody?

does cleansing count for the bounty?

>>42302454
It killed the possessing thing? So I assume so?

>>42302466
So a killbounty then? of the 10z?

So uh, claiming a split with Jenny for a red skeleton and then claiming 2 skeletons of my own.
So that should be about 25z extra for me.
I think?
Otherwise I can deal with only 20z seeing as I know for sure I got 2 skeletons.

As for my total monies.
Well that's up for debate as everyone is tossing their monies everywhere.

>>42302499
Right now, I'm assuming killing a ghost by itself, is 10z.

Killing it after it possessed somebody is 958 until Monday says otherwise.

Anyway, I'm purchasing:
>Stalkers with the intent to combine with my Chain to make them into a hook shot type weapon, able to pull me as easily as pull others to me. Or at least to let me climb.
>Baton
>1 Chain
Leaves me with 209, which I bank for the time being.

for posterity sake

also question I dont get a share on the board of director thingy since I cleansed it into reality? xD

Nah it was just a silly thought ignore the question

>>42302628
I think we all got that share, part of the 8000 even split.

>>42302628
You get a share of 8000, we a re currently trying to do the accounting on any other money

>>42302566
so I have counted the pulses I have done and if what you say is true with the 958 on cleanse kill of a ghost possesing someone then I get a total of... 1158z....

Soooo... How do I combine things? plus a question... could I cast the heal ability with a gun? xD

>>42302686
>>42302698
allright ^^

>>42302706
Realise that is without the total reward if not hetros counted it in on the 958 >>42302566
for me

>>42302706
right now we're thinking there might not be a way to combine items because the schola isn't around.

>>42302706
>I get a total of... 1158z
Nice

> How do I combine things?
We need a different NPC, one that did not show up this time

>could I cast the heal ability with a gun
i dunno.

>>42302706
>Soooo... How do I combine things? plus a question... could I cast the heal ability with a gun? xD
probably. Combine a wand and a gun. But we don't have that person local.

Voting for a nice relaxing ride on the airship

>>41992934

Loot can be banked.

I'm torn between the two options. I abstain from voting for either, and will simply go with the majority vote.

Before we choose though I'd like to know if we can do the relaxing trip first, blitz it to run up our Terminus Clock (literally our goal is to simply complete that level as quickly as possible), then go after the astral whale?

>>42302721
>>42302725
Allright questions for Monday then simply.

>>42302778
Hetros did you count in the big share of 509z in the post here
>>42302566

Or do I get that 509 on top of my 1158?

>>42302820
yes you should. And yes I did. I bought a chain, baton, and stalkers.

And you can also choose to share that 958 amongst everybody else to spread out that money and increase everyone's total share.

>>42302835
I am crazy... I am considering buying a gun and ammo... the wand is one handed right? that means I could get one of the pistols for the second hand right?

>>42302835
>>42302856
if there had been a nice melee weapon here for a more combaty guide then I would most likely gone for that.

>>42302856
Actually yes it could. You could also sell or store your hammer to save space.

>>42302835
Honestly I'd hold off on claiming the split bounties until it is all confirmed by Monday. Right now we can all spend the 8000z as we wish, but otherwise the money doesn't exist yet.

Poka, Khya... if you are willing I suggest advancing to Navigator and taking the Reversal spell now that you have all 4 guide abilities. Lost Ship proved the worth of that particular spell after all. I know this is presumptuous to ask, but we might need it desperately in the coming future.

If you do ask Lost Ship however.... could I have your wand Poka? I am willing to pay of course.

Ah I had just gotten back from a fresh turnling's sleep so let's get started.

" In regards to the others who had recently joined us they don't expect payment from the Runner's Guild, in fact after talking it over Navigator would like to speak with us. "

Last Ship: As your navigator I can't hope to lay claim on the Furiosa and her crew. However, It behooves me that for her first voyage I ask if everyone would be willing to join me on a hunt for a famed Astral Whale called Halifax. Myself and my cohort has been on the run to find it, and to slay it. To begin I shall start by introducing ourselves proper.
" My name is Nezera formerly of the 20th Ignylian Crusade and Harpoon is- "

Slayer: "Call me Ishmael. I belong to no house nor wing, for Halifax doth consumed them wholly not unlike the Mal. And it shall attempt to do so again as if possessed by a petty motive to meddle in human affairs."

Questi: Creatures like the Astral Whale tend to keep to themselves in the sky meddling with other Astral affairs like moving whole planets or shifting entire stars. But this one specifically seems to have it out for Runners and Terminus Crystals, which is wholly uncharacteristic for a creature that size.

Ishmael: And should it be permitted to rampage another cycle we predict that another town could get eaten in about a dozen floors or less.

Nezera : But ulimately you are free to choose, any actions you take towards the preparation and slaying of Halifax will be compensated by the Skyward order. This you have my assurance on. With that I do believe we are waiting for a certain airship pilot to arrive...

Zenni : 60z

>>42303237
Curse the dread curiosity traps that forever haunts us.

>>42303244
And the Old Gamma box the Scifax had, along with a single Eye of Eld.

The notes probably go with the box.

>Pay 100z for information on my new... condition.

so... how to do this...

does the snub - 3, fire 2 bullets in one action or able to fire two times in one turn?

Alright, 568 for stuff, I shot two of the horrible squid bastards I think that is 196 unless it means shooting the full sized buggers, and 30 zenny from general murderating, of yes and 32.5 from llama back interest...

828.5 in cash, I could save this to be frisk but.

>Sprint to the Volgon DMZ
>Slam wages on the table

I'll take 1 of everything. No I tell a lie I'm looking for something to make things explode from a distance what would you recommend Sir?

>Invader or Old Hunter

>>42303318
Both. It has two loads of two.

>>42303318
plus could you load it with two different bullets for the duo shot if that is how it works?

>>42303331
hwhaAaAAAT?!

>>42303259
>you mean I rechecked everything for naught?
No you need to know the total to get paid, you just don't need to RP it if you don't want to.

>>42303331
Invader

>>42303328
Can you ask them what the Loon Hairpin you picked up is?

yay triple post

so 1158z cash
>buy Snub-3
>buy Happy Bday
>buy Iron Drop

leaves me at 148z left.
I guess banking it would be good?

>>42303333
Allow me to summarize my feelings - "guuuuuuuuunnnsssss"

It depends on how you read the split line, I guess.

>>42303373
I mean, now I actually can help killing things, which was something I almost cried a bit about last turn. Ofcourse I will heal people first of all.

But it will be nice to have this alternative I think

>>42303066
Questi, do you believe there will be crystal deposits there to mine when we hunt? I am deliberating whether I should take my Crystal Mining pick or store it.

Will the skyward order give us time to run up our terminus clock and then meet up with them again? If so I think we should do the level 1 area, specifically to speed run it, then use those extra turns to help them kill the astral whale. That's my two cents. Your call guys, if it's even possible.

>>42303391
>As in "get one, stop burming yourself to death so I have to save you all the time?"
Well a little. It also looks like a kick ass gun.

>But I like being rescued. Its cozy.
uh huh

> I have a piece of unstable Magi-Tek
You could make this one unstable too.

>>42303299
>condition

" Oooooh ? You're the second person to come here with that. Are you also going to turn yourself in ? No ? Well what you have there is a White Ghoul's Curse. It's bad. There's no cure. Lucky for you a White Ghoul is not so problematic in fact it could be advantageous if you decide to /feed it/. Yes.... I'm starting to see now.. You were with Graves.. and he's turned himself in to offer his services awhile so he can learn more about his... condition.

So I'll tell you what I told him. The taste of devouring creatures is the absolute best, driven by the insatiable bloodlust of space-faring monsters.
-You will no longer recover from healing spells it starts to hurt you. [Darc] spells on the other hand will cure you. Eating will always be there, so long as its meat.
-This doesnt seem to affect the quality of one's magic. Even if they're healers.
-Another thing is that a ghoul's body never seems to decay or destroy it makes sense that an elderitch host would alter the bodies of their possessed to suit their needs. But like everything else undead, fire will always work.

If you wish to learn more, why dont you ask your friend about it when he returns~

> You Pay 100z

I have to go for a bit but be back.

Also Is only the Gunsmith's shop open? Like I wished to visit pumpkin Jill because I didn't have the opportunity last thread.

Armistan:
Ahh the Snub-3. Because one bullet aint enough to kill most things you'll need TWO. and it fires it both at the same time Krakow !
2 Shots. For One. Seems expensive no ? Why dont you come back and say that to me when these bad boys save your life in a cornered situation.

[Snub-3s]
Ammo: 2/2 , means they load 2 rounds. But fire both. I should have probably written it as 2/1, really. But then that would just equal to 2.0 Sorry can't unlearn glorious Volgon math there buddy.

It loads two rounds but they have to be the same. Something about the manual saying two differential bullet types cause pressure cracking in the barrels. You can do it. But its a 750 zenny "do it "

>>42303427
>Thanks for the save(s)
No problem.

As for the guns do what you think is best.

Oh yes thanks for reminding me Khya

>Get an evaluation on my Ghoul Arm and Qloon Hairpin.

>>42303429
Sorry, 7 kills, since the two void born count I'm sure.
Two of my kills are split so give 5z to trigger, and 5z to M5 from the last thread

>>42303118
Say, Scholar? Is it possible for me to combine 2 Iron Maidens and 1 of my Chains together?

>>42303447
Can we combine equipment here? Mundane equipment only I mean? Like stalker with hunter's chain to get a hook shot style pull other/pull self style hunter's chain? (Maybe with boosted damage from more pointy bits?)

>>42303420
It seems the Scholomance isn't open this floor. But we'll definitely get to see them again after floor 3. Since we should be coming up to a town after that.... Lantern reaps aside.

>Town floors happen every 4th floor. For the purposes of stability Lantern Reap is counted as Floor 1 even though it was a town floor technically.

>>42303489
So no combing equipment? Even mundane equipment?

>>42303476
Armistan: Maybe ? Not really. You'd need the Clinic or the Order to be able to do fancy weaponsmithings I just sell the damn things, brother. But hey I see you folks got some crystals. I sell, trade, buy those.

>>42303505
>sell 1 pyros shard, the go to blood market and sell shadow weasel, and price check slime for owl
I'll let others decide to sell it or not and free up the iron maidens.

If the slime and shadow weasel combine or one ate the other being in the same iron maiden, then evenly split the sell price between myself and owl.

>>42303489
As an extension to this. Guild presence is interspersed. Factional conflicts and supply lines you see. And town floors may only feature 4-5 guilds at a time and depending on who they serve, maybe less. It usually less.

>>42303654
Becky - exchange 3 Dumbo Shells for 8 of these contra shot ( 5 dmg )? And how much for 3x of those mines? I tend to fall behind anyway.

>>42303829
I can agree to that trade.

As for the Sensor Mines? I honestly have no idea. I do want to keep them however I think I should keep them myself for human enemies, where I can... appropriate a disguise should I need it and then lay them as traps in enemy territory. Which has limited applicability when we're going to go fight a whale.

That reminds me. I think there is a clear consensus on to hunt the whale and thus.

Hmmm The guilds currently in power.. off the top of my head are.


[The Skyward Order] Is a rather zealous religious order that was leftover from the remnants of the defeated [Ignyllian Star Forces]
who uses aethercrafts to sail the stars in order to escape the Malebolgia. Vaunted as our best chance at fighting against Humanity's threats and indeed our ever watchful guardian if we are to stray too far from the path of the stairs.
[The Volgon Army] Currently the longest thriving civilization on recordto still remain functional after the Malebolgia hit. It is said that they hold the keys to a time before the Malebolgia happened but her technocratic leaders have stayed on the path of conservative industrialism, using millitary and science to hoard resources and power their War-Machines.
However because their presence is so vast, it becomes hard to determine what their true intentions or purpose truly is anymore below their command levels. And thus Militia men who were graced with their better hands have sought to ascend the ranks of this timeless nation no doubt to strike it reach or seek out the truth of our times.
[The 13th Chapter of Scholomance] Ever since the fall of the 11th Chapter and the failed expedition of the 12th Chapter into the Malebolgia the 13 Order of the Scholomance was rebuilt by her immortal caretakers in the heart of the Crystal Corridors whose halls and libraries continue to collect dust and books so ancient, one could engage in conversation with their grandchildren through spirited notes. And thus Mages and even inquisitive Guides find a home here among the resident Scholars.
[Shiraiya Clinic] Funded jointly by the Scifax of the old Volgon Technocracy and the mortal counterparts of the Scholomance, Shiraiya Clinic delves in the extermination and mitigation of monstrous threats in the name of survival. It is rumoured that their projects on the evolution of humans focuses on survival in the Mal.

>>42303926
The Twilight Observatory. Yes 1 part mage tower. 2 parts starlit nightmare. Located out in the middle of an ocean field it's only accessible via Airship. However the last supply run to make it back from there was well over a year ago. And the supplies themselves had been something of a hoard. No one left from there since.

The Observatory as you can imagine observes celestial bodies but vested [Interest] in the research has caused many clients to flock to the ocean for it. Did they all wish to find the whale ? Or perhaps gaze longingly onto the distant stars untouched by the mal. T'would be a sight to behold I'm sure. ..

Having undertaken the perilous task of plumbing the depths of Monday's mind I return with answers regarding character level.

Characters start a level 1.
Players new to the game get two skills.
If you die you go back to level 1 and you get 1 skill.
Character level is determined entirely by the number of floors you have beaten.

This means a level 3 character can have 3 or 4 skills depending on whether or not that player has died.

>Paying 100 zeny on information on Astral creatures in general.

>>42305768
So water and lux magic is going to be prevalent if the Mages are still around. Astral creatures, oceanic monstrosities.... and of course undead from those who came and never returned.

Sounds fun.

Hey! Maybe my Lost Word will be useful instead of accidentally releasing horrors!

>>42305975
Good to have confirmation.

I believe however dying makes you lose 1 skill and 1 level. With a minimum of level 1, and 1 skill. Not that it completely resets you at level 1 with 1 skill. It is to make it so death has consequences, but not to completely screw over long term players both with equipment loss and skill loss.

>>42306054

intereting
but no
if you die you're docked back to 1
if you were at 1 and died you're docked back to a literal one skiller.
because you're doing the thing where you're dying over and over again and stop it.

Was the answer I got when I said the same thing. There is no go, there is no 200 dollars. You go to 1.
Death is a bitch. Don't do it.

Registering my pay
>380 cut for boss kill
>10 for killing swarmy rat things

>>42306116
Then I just don't see the point in the skill loss mechanic at all if its not a way to at least preserve some progress as you play these games.

It... doesn't make sense to me to have it that way. Its counter-intuitive, promotes abandoning trips on death for a completely new character and simply isn't fun.

>>42303489
I have to ask the reason behind that particular mechanic if Monday is willing to tell us.

>Inquire as to if bounties can be claimed on squids that hadn't possessed people yet.
>If they can, claim my 1916z
>Inquire at Info Shop about Airships and supplying one. -100z

It looks like no one else is willing to share the bounties they had. So I guess I'll claim my portion of the shared reward.

>Claim 553z
>Buy Stalkers
>Buy 4x minibombs

>>42306580
Oh. Really? I was waiting for information on >>42304330 to see how much I might be able to share in total.

Well, 380 (8000:21) to everyone isn't a bad baseline. Then personal things from there.

About Astral Creatures: From The Scholomance Deep Libraries.

One of the many prevailing features of the Mal has been its ability to alter the phase space in our Universe. Having consumed many worlds and "recreated" them as recursive tower Floors the destruction left in its wake consumed all but one resident. Astral Creatures. Having the ability to traverse and live in the Outer Wall, these creatures bearing a size comparable to Floors paint the constellations in our skies where fixed Stars used to be. Indeed [Monster Signs] as we would like to call them had been the result of these celestial beings presiding over the Mal for time eternal watching powerlessly as the Universe is consumed. Astral creatures bear the common quality of not only living in space but also occupying their own dimensional space, as such their presence in the Astra allows them to be accessible via magic or wormholes in our plane to theirs. The Scholomance have compiled various Astrals under these categories:
[Faeries] - Those who subsist on Thought
[Outsiders] - Those who subsist on Nothing
[Celestials] - Those who subsist on Name
[Giants] - Those who subsist on Aether

Please pic ka name with a tripcode.

Please keep it in mind that this is a preparation thread so you as a new person will probably not have much to do yet. With zero money you can't shop for items unless someone donates money to you.

Also we do not know the next thread will be so we will have just wait, which could be a whole week or more.

It's a game about progress and loss, you climb up and are knocked down, then climb up again.

The Old Notes from the Kismet:
Hmmmm it seems that these notes are extemely detailed in Scifax's process onboard. To begin with, the Kismet was a Vosskon airship specializing in freight and supplies. However the notes says otherwise indicating that it became a lab, using the crystals on board to jury rig a terminus crystal-like effect. However things didn't go to plan and her crew suffered a fate worse than death. Their existence had sped up to a speed faster than light so much so that the very concept of looking at them hurted them. Performing physical actions meant doing procedural tasks hours in length to harvest an action only a second long. But the good doctor there developed another work around, one in which his people would conquer the ennui of time using timeless bodies- yes the Ghouls you saw harvested from the control tanks on the ship. In a way a miniature paradise truly did develop but like any town, they meet hteir ultimate end with the Mal. Bless their souls. The notes seem to be written for the benefit of those who came upon them. The volumes are thick, engraved in no less than a 1000 layers of algorithmic runic. All of them detailing instructions for wondrous technologies including case studies but with our current tools nothing short of a Volgon scientist could make heads or tails of these notes. If you wish I can get these notes circulated to a friend of mine, rendering the information on it "Free" but would essentially grant you favor with the Volgons or Shirai Clinic. 6000z for that.

The Gamma however, was said to contain a special creature capable shifting the phase plane much like a Terminus crystal would. 1000 good ?

>>42307129
Eh... all for nothing is a suckers game. Gambling is all about hedging your bets and mitigating loses. Only people who have nothing to lose bet it all.

If a person dies they should be punished for it yes! Absolutely. But to lose absolutely everything as well as taking a hefty penalty to a new character?

I just don't see the point... like I said before. It is actively punishing your players for playing long term instead of simply grabbing a new character each time.

As for stats gained from weapons you don't need to add them up into your main stat block.
This is because sometimes people will be switching weapons a lot mid combat so it becomes bothersome to track weapon stats all the time.

That penalty is only if you reuse your name.

=Ruling on Deaths are now adjusted.=

Upon Character Death.

> You may [Respawn] with an "Inheritor" character with 1 Skill at level 1 but is essentially a new Runner or the famed [Paradox Walk-In].
During Deployment its fine to roll a new character with 2. But respawns while mid-floor definitely drop in with 1 skill. New Players get around this rule if they happen to deploy midgame. And are trying this out for the first time.

> But old players claiming to be New Players can abuse this.
They can. But then they also no longer access the items in their bank. So really its the choice between...

> A respawn that retains player information and item inheritances. But restarts at level 1. [Inheritor]
or-
> A new character that has effectively 2 skills at level 1.
[Wanderer]

But what if you decide to re-spawn during the Crystal Corridor ?
> Then you are a 2 skill Level 1. With your Item permissions intact. The price you pay for sitting out the remainder of a floor I'm sure.

> But that promotes people dying and sitting out.
Then don't die. Less players for me to process and more time to save is honestly good. Death is supposed to be /death/. But with healers in play there's a lot of failsafes and rescue methods.

Hope this clears things up. I don't intend to let up on this ruling since Advance classes and Veteran Master Classes are meant to be rare in a group :v.

But With this version of the game all the tools you have at your disposal to rescue, withdraw, retreat, rez-heal is phases away. So I don't really feel as bad for the extreme lethality of this game.

>>42308614
What.

>>42308732
Ah, that's not that bad. Thanks for clarifying.

>>42308732

Thanks for clearing that up

Now can I actually possibly identify this loot? Or get some clarification on the Squid thing bounty if you don't mind please.

>>42308732

Does this mean that only [Inheritors] can claim the money left in the llama bank?

>>42308933
Ohooohhhho yeah. I told the Llama. He agreed.

>>42308732
Wait, is it so that you die and you get reset to level 1 with 1 skill no matter your levels and current skills?
Or is it that you die and you lose 1 skill?....

Honestly it might be better just to restart a new character with this setup since shops are so fickle that even if you have access to your bank you are likely not getting any advantage than just start a new "account".

>>42309080
#1 Yes
#2 No

On that note, the current respawn system *cripple* veterans over actually being a benefit.
The access to your bank is *not* worth restarting half as good as a regular beginner.

>"But you get to bank your items!"
Yes, but when do you get this access? between floors? The beginners have the same benefit as you by then except for some items you have lying about, so you have to wait 2 floors to even reap this benefit.

With 50Z each that is 450 Z

Llama Bank 900 Z + 5% Interest = 945 Z

That is 2055 Zeny for me then.

Also if you have gotten the shield from Armstrong then I then would you mind if I retain the Shield I lent to you?

>>42309952
BTW this thread will soon be saging, can we expect another one before next session or this is the last opportunity to do our things and dump our Zeny on Ale and Llama cookies?

I would like to create a mage character, but how different books work? How magic deals DMG? How far arrow shoots?

>>42311185
Books give elements. Damage is based on both the Word and your magic power (the star on the character sheet) Arrow shoots 4 spaces.

>>42311185
All Mages all the time.

A spell looks like this: [Element] [Word] [Word].
The Element is determined by the Book you're currently holding when you prepare the spell.
Preparing Spells takes one Action(you have two actions per Round, you can move, prepare or cast with one action).

The Words can be any of the skills your mage has Element BallArrow, ArrowBall, BallBlock, BallBall, ArrowArrow, ArrowRing, RingRing.

Typically combining two words changes the nature of its effect, i.e. a FireBallBlock will hit an enemy with a FireBall but also leave a Fire Block where it hits.

Damage is determined by the words & your Magic Stat. A starting Mage has 4 Magic + 1 from his Mask.
So a Fire Arrow will do 5 damage, a Fire Ball(Ball's do +1 damage) will do 6, a Fire Ball Ball will do 7.

Supposedly casting a spell of one element while holding the book of another will cause some sort of different effect.
I'm looking forward to experimenting with some silly spells next map, even if its a bad idea I don't think any of my own Block Spells can hurt me since my Magic Attack is my Magic Defense.

>>42308732
Monday, this is just bad design.

I could get behind it if respawning to the FLOOR dropped you to lvl.1 with 1 skill no matter what. Fine, that's cool.

But if we wait to respawn to the crystal cooridor, it should just cut out one level.

You've said yourself that equipment is not the most important factor in this game. These new rules make dieing so punitive as to make all of the effort of someone playing completely worthless if they die even ONCE. And it also makes it so any items we were CARRYING are lost as well, only shit we banked, the stuff we saved for a rainy day, and weren't actually USING. And many of that could be fairly high level gear.

If you made zenny and items -waaaay- more effective then this would be a good death system. But items often are worthless compared to class abilities.

>>42311703
I haven't cast it myself, but someone once told me it was "god mode" or something like that.

To me it seems like the spell would resolve by applying the element to the first word and then having the second word resolve after the first, with them sharing the range of either word.

So I'm not sure if Ring would proc every square of arrow or if the Arrow would simply hit its target and then proc Ring. I would also assume that Arrow would do your base Magic as Damage, and then Ring would do your base -2.

Ring Ring would probably do Base-2 twice, meaning the enemy would apply their defense to each one.

>>42311787
>>42308732
Hell if the last floor hadn't had so many 'instant death' methods then I'd actually be cool with this. But we had 3 people die not from bleeding out but just in one phase. No revivals. No chance to save them. Nothing.

This death method -only- works if there's no instant death attacks in this game, which there blatantly are.

This ups the difficulty to such a degree overtime as to make it impossible to play. Hell, I'm not even sure Ragnyll had such a hard time playing as this back in Iron Hearts even with fewer opportunities to heal themselves. At least they had higher total HP thanks to controlling a unit of soldiers. And Iffram's rules were you just drop a level as I recall. Unless you respawned directly to the battlefield, in which case you reroll the character entirely at lvl.1

>>42311781
