Too much alcohol at the Fan Faire make patch monkey call in sick.

ganthornx · 04-01-2003, 12:22 AM

maybe they wanted to add in some stuff people talked about at the FF. Or maybe people cried irl to them too much about the charm nerf they postponed it!

Cybsled · 04-01-2003, 01:00 AM

It may or may not be related, but alot of pure melee sounding "spells" appeared on lucy from test server...stuff like immune to stuns, cleaving through enemy defenses, furious kicks, etc.

Possible incoming stuff for the bitch slapped rogues, war, and monks to make them more viable again?

Ulathur Freespirit · 04-01-2003, 02:19 AM

wishful thinking cyb =p

Metranon · 04-01-2003, 02:44 AM

The only melee ability I can think of that will help against POP mobs is "innate arm length".

That brings up a point for something I thought should always have been: certain weapons have better reach. 2handers, spears and whips strike me as wepaons that should have better reach than others.

DorianBrytestar · 04-01-2003, 12:18 PM

I don't think weapon length has anything to do with combat as it is now. They said somethign at the FF that combat was based on spheres, and the spheres need to touch to be able to hit something, and if you can't "see" the center of the target from your "center" then you get the cannot see message. Also, when the spheres are not touching, you get the too far away message.

9Least it was something like that, I was playing pokemon on my gameboy. It seemed more productive after hearing "If you saw all the numbers involved, you guys would truly know how broken some things are."

Wychway · 04-01-2003, 12:23 PM

Oh, I never said it did, just that it should.

DorianBrytestar · 04-01-2003, 12:51 PM
