Because his soul is bind to a Dungeon Boss. He revived at the same time as the Dungeon Boss.... to kill the boss, you need to kill him first. Quote:
The damages is determined by the Skill itself. Because it is determined by the Skill, Zillion damage skill would not work because you need insanely high grade Ink that exceed Phantasmal Level (impossible even with overskill). However, damage aside, it is possible to define Number of attack, Cooldown time, Cast time and Mana Cost. But if the skill is too overpowered, the Skill will add additional cost to the skill: Like HP cost, Item requirement...etc. Anything undefined is fair game. At the worst case scenario where player manage to define everything: Overwrite the earlier entry with higher cost. Using previous Example: Damage: Zillion Mp Cost: 1 (+ Zillion mp) Cooldown time: 1 second Cast time: 1 second + Hp Cost: Zillion + Exp Lost: Zillion + Inflict Poison status effect all allies + (Continued for Zillion time) Addition cost can be reduced/even removed if Player willing to add penalty to the skill (Like higher MP cost, longer recast time...etc). So the Cost is still ultimately determined by the Skill and rather than the Player. How lenient the Skill would be depend on the grade of the Ink used. Higher Grade Ink is less strict than low grade Ink. E.g. Phantasmal Grade Ink: Damage (determined by the skill): 100% of attack + 50 Number of attack: 3 Mp cost: 200mp Cooldown time: 5 second Cast-time: 1 second Really Low grade Ink: (Low probability of working anyway) Damage(determined by the skill):: 60% Number of attack: 3 Mp cost: 200mp Cooldown time: 5 second Cast-time: 1 second + HP cost: 100 Hp + Inflict 30 second [Slow] status effect on player. + Inflict 10 second [poison] effect. = The Player who had the Overskill see it as a challenge to create a Game-Breaker skill that can bypass these rules. At the current level, it is only Balance-Breaker (due to allowing Cross-Class ability.) On side note: This Overskill, [Skill Acquisition] is only Tactical level magic (Change the flow of battlefield but game-balance kept it at that level)... but has potential to reach (albeit lowest level and last only few second) of Dungeon-level Magic (Territorial Creation but at this level, this skill is not a few pieces of paper but a 500-page text-book. As a tribute: You must use Phantasmal Ink and Paper for the skill...It's the "I have a Boner for sword" thing). [Soul Overwrite] (more advanced version) is the same but has even greater potential altering fate of an individual..... Multiple Individuals (Via multiple copies) = Nation-grade. But only if it is allowed to develop further....(Further development of this overskill is difficult if not downright impossible because at that level, the Skill-book can now be used as a Door-stopper....)

Yeah, that could work. Quote:
A: Money can be worked around. Players have always found ways to make money hand over fist in MMO's. B: Internal balance would reflect the whole "it's no longer a game" aspect of the series. A powerful spell in any other fantasy setting would either take a ridiculously long time to cast (long cast timer) can't be cast in succession (long cooldown) and/or will drain the caster of energy (high mana cost). Forcing the player to balance these issues sounds like a much more consistent and less abusive method of creating skills. It becomes a game of min-maxing rather than "lets pile all our money together and create an über skill." |

Even if Foxtail can transform, the skill level is fixed but in the Overskill's case: You can level up the Cross-Class Skill normally by spending mastery point. = Quote:
Quote:
The player can only vaguely describe the amount of time and Mana needed while logic take over. Powerful Spell will drain lots of Mana because it is needed to fuel the power. >If it doesn't drain a lot of MP, it will either has less power (consume less Mana) or take longer time to cast (gathering mana from surrounding) > If it does not take a long time to cast, it will have longer recast time (due to fatigue from casting the spell) or less power (unable to gather a lot of Mana from surrounding) > If it has short recast time, it means less power (due to player subconsciously limiting the power to make it less exhausting) or take more Mp to cast (due to using mana to speed up cooldown time)

I avoid TRPG book problems by not elaborating on main class skills. I'll just grab everything off the book once its translated.
Also, am too lazy to calculate the HP and MP values atm. I don't think I need those to tell a good story...

Hi, I created another character. I focused much less on the skills and more on the play style and background on the character. What does everyone think?

Question: Why would Magi of Lake think that it is a good idea to discuss such topic with a Cleric? To make thing worse: with build of a knight/Paladin? Achievement of solo-ing dungeon actually doesn't mean much compared to Knowledge of the game. Beside, there are some Dungeon which can't be solo-ed: Look at Naotsugu's armor, then read up on the Boss that drop the item. Why Regun talked to Shiroe because 1. He has been playing the game for a long time (historical record) 2. He is an Enchanter (AKA Archmage....as in Character with High Stats in Int. presumably Summoner and Sorcerer would suffice) 3. Shiroe seemed to be knowledgeable about the Game Lore. Though because your character is a Cleric, it is still possible for them to discuss about Faith and God (Probably include some Boss Monster (Evil Gods?.... I think there would be one of two boss described as Evil God in a game)).

Honestly? I'm getting a lot of Kirito vibes from your character. Little piece of advice: Sword Art Online is a terrible representation of MMO's. Many of the things Kirito got away with were only possible because the author ignored the impossibility. The best advice I can give is "tone it down." Elder Tale is an MMO. MMO's are made to be played with other people, and soloing means that there will be a lot of things you simply won't be able to do. Dungeons being one of them. Leveling swiftly another. |

Now that the game is real.... time passes 12x slower. Assuming that you can level up a character in an hour while Elder tale is game, that will take you about 12 hours to level up in the New World. ===== Absurdity Maximum: CAST OFF! Sub-class: Nudist As if the game isn't hard enough for you. Since the game has become real, may be it was due to the lack of intelligence to comprehend what happen (though highly doubt it would help), when Nudist decide to unleash their Sub-classs ability (via stripping) in the middle of a battle, it leave most Demi-humans (including most players) stunned. May be it is due to the special effect that keep the game in 'T' rating (Censor).

IIRC raids have a member-count requirement. For example, a 24-man raid means two things:
1. you can only have 24 members in your raiding party, and 2. you must have a 24-man team in order to undertake the raid. Quote:
From what I understand, its philosophy is basically "Embrace your birthday suit! Let your pure, natural nakedness (literally) empower you!" Kinda silly if seemingly useful imho. It seems to me that whoever that contributed to that entry probably have a fine sense of humor =3

There is no further description other than Real world effect because it is actually based on that. Also based on the fact that there are Players who do nude run for self-imposed challenge. Being able to brag that you completed a dungeon naked...... is actually kind of awesome.

The Nudist is a clever reference to the SWTOR PVP debacle called Boost. Where players wearing NOTHING were artificially boosted to ABOVE the highest tier of gear in game because the game applied the modifier on to the player's base stats while naked. LOL
(I really play too many MMOs...) Also, I will roll a Nudist and join the faction I belong to, for obvious reasons.

A little early but just want to have fun screwing people a little:
"To think that Adventurers can overpower Lander is sheer arrogance on Adventurer's part." The effect of the First World Fraction actually still linger in the world and it is actually possible for Landers to transform into Boss monster when they perform a certain Dark Ritual that gathers fallen souls. Strong Desire or Despair can further power-up the Boss Monsters, transforming them into powerful boss that only powerful Adventurers or Ancients can defeat. But make no mistake, Boss Monsters are pathetic existence, fated only to kill and waiting to be killed. Edit: Since the Dark Ritual add to the problem (increase number of Demi-humans/Boss), Lander who know how to perform the ritual, will not use this Magic unless desperate. Moar Edit: Judging from my current character class ratio.... Main Lead is Synthetic Summoner with Support Build (which make it hard to defend his case as Non-pervert). He doesn't usually play Summoner but is end up trapped in the class when he is transferring items from his main.
