Re: Event Log: Emergency Bounty

At the very least, I think the admin behind the event expected the shoot-first mentality and thus made Blaze unkillable. I'd put +1 on the admin's scorecard.

What I disliked in other IRE games was that when events rolled in, a good majority of the players forget established rivalries in favour of "kum bay ah, let's work together!".

Unless it's specific for your group or benefits your group it makes sense to ignore rivalries so people can enjoy a world wide event

Re: Scoundrel - Skill Feedback

As a general rule, thats a substandard way of bashing, since it'll mean you'll have to stop once the mob is dead to catch up on healing instead of being able to move faster to your next target.

I'm massively disappointed with how Scoundrels have turned out and thinking of changing class.

As a non-combatant, I don't care too much about how many bullets I can shoot per minute, but I picked the class mainly for flavour. I wanted to be a dirty bastard who don't care 'bout no rules and don't care 'bout no laws. Yet currently Scoundrels don't feel very ... scoundrel-y? There is very little in the way of dashing, debonair pirate functionality. Nanoseers make better spies and better sneaks. Scoundrels kinda just shoot shit.

Are there plans to change this, or is this the intended theme of Scoundrels? Are we supposed to be rogue-equivalents, or more like rangers with guns for bows? Any insight you could share on your vision for Scoundrels would be much appreciated.
Specifically, for example, is it intended that Nanoseer invisibility is so many miles beyond the Scoundrel's generic conceal? (Which is identical to the widely available slink ...)

Scoundrels are intended to be the dirty fighter/win at at any cost style of class. Not your typical MMO/MUD rogue/serpent, more just employ whatever means necessary to get the job done.

I do agree that there can be improvements made in a couple of classes in regards to abilities that are a bit too close in functionality to other abilities (which I covered earlier in this thread). We'll be fixing these up as time and opportunity presents.

Overall though, your class abilities are just your tools, while we give them specific flavor, it's just a facilitator for how you roleplay your character. If you want to be a charisma-laden, debonair pirate (space Dread Pirate Roberts), you can, if you want to be a gruff merc (Captain Mal Reynolds/Han Solo), that's also possible, if you want to be a cold, calculating assassin (Agent 47), that's fine too. There's a big sandbox that you can play inside while still keeping thematically in-line with your ability flavor messages.

That being said, there's always room for improvement! We'll have a classlead session opening up in the near future, and you're more than welcome to submit your ideas for further changes and refinements to your class.

Do you plan on bringing over any sort of housing system?

Re: Q+A Madness - Jan/Feb 2019

I've asked this previously but there are a bunch of skills that are redundant due to both class and skirmishing/exploration having the same effect. I.E Slink/Conceal, Dash Skirmishing, and Dash guile, or Bloodburn/bloodsinge. Seems highly redundant and the class versions are also higher down the skill trees compared to their counterparts, if possible can we have these skills changed into something else or buffed?

Also is there any plans to make cover more useful in PvE? Or will this strictly be a PvP thing?

Last but not least and of the utmost importance! Drugs! What are your plans for the drug trade skill? How will it work and when do we get our dirty little hands on these things!?

How do we avoid heat death?

I guess I am a little worried about, as mentioned, players segregating into dynasties & FT becoming quiet-like.
