Post subject: | Warped space, again. |
Code: You soar south.
The forest seems to have grown back quite rapidly. All of the trees look healthy and strong, and the flowers and shrubs are bright and fragrant. There is one extremely large tree which towers, even overshadows, all of the other trees in this forest. A closer look shows an entrance in the tree along with several guards. Looking up, a wall can be seen, hidden within the branches. There appears to be an entire city hidden way up in this enormous tree. A first quarter moon hangs in the sky. It's raining lightly, mild, and windy. Obvious exits: n e s w nw ne sw se entrance An entrance into a gigantic tree fortress stands before you. Warped Space! As you look around, you become dazed and confused. All around, space is warped like a funhouse mirror! Strange shapes and colors seem to mock you at every turn as you futilely attempt to make sense of your bizarre surroundings. Obvious exits: ?????????? An exit back to the forest lies ahead of you. A small wooden sign has been carved into the tree here. A wall is slowly being constructed here of giant stones held together with vines. You feel dizzy and disorientated!! Alas, you cannot go that way. You feel dizzy and disorientated!! Alas, you cannot go that way. You feel dizzy and disorientated!! Alas, you cannot go that way. You feel dizzy and disorientated!!

You stand amongst the trees, walking along the various paths in this heart of the woodlands. To your north, two towering birches lean together, creating a naturalist gothic arch. Beyond them, you can see the hustle and bustle of many citizens. Obvious exits: n nw A Hostia centaur is here. Congratulations, the harlequins have the ability to prevent newbies from entering Sith'a'niel. Let's have a little reading session. help harlequins wrote: Very little is known about this group. Everybody knows everything about this group, from its memberlist to its over-used spell list (eg 1, how is it mysterious and secretive to constantly warp entire cities?). help harlequins wrote: Elsewhere in the realms, the Harlequins have been accounted for a series of seemingly random tricks, events, and ambushes. This isn't random at all, you say something that annoys Uyzella, she declares war on your kingdom, and suddenly your major city is warped for the better part of a month. Ooooh, how mysterious and random! help harlequins wrote: They have never been caught *cough [REDACTED] cough* help harlequins wrote: Their behavior could perhaps be best described as erratic, and they are just as prone to committing random acts of kindness as acts of treachery and violence. It would be foolhardy to outguess them, as the Harlequins' actions are reliably unreliable.
This cabal is just as predictable as every other one, perhaps more so. Erratic is the last word I'd use to describe them. Their constant and blatant diversion from the guidelines in their help file should be cursable, at least for the leadership. All warping the only accessable entrance to Sith'a'niel for newbies is make life difficult for them. Edit: In fact stuff it, this sort of repeated abuse should result in the permanent removal of the spell from the harlequins using it in such a "carpet-bombing" fashion. |

Yes that was a little more than annoying trying to get out, or back into with all those rooms warped. |

I believe that the spell is over powered. Which is why I believe it should be concintration based, if very little but atleast some to prevent such extreme castings of it. I feel that the spell is useful but however it is also overpowered. Now then, as to pwns other points, I believe if the players do not follow the guidlines one of two things can occur. 1) The curseable offense which also could equal the removal of the spell of the person abusing the guidelines which again would come upon the leadership...after all it is their job to watch the people in their organization. 2) Change the guidines, which I personaly do not find favorable at all. |

Does this belong in the bug discussion? |

The help file says those things, but unfortunately it is the players overall who must mold their characters to those standards. |

I think that the spell should at least provide a willpower save for the character that is going against it since it can be cast with impunity, has no concentration requirements and can only be readily dealt with by two classes in the game. I don't think anything else in the game has near the power that this spell has. That and reducing the time that the spell is active since it only seems to be used as a solo tactic spell. |

In the past I wouldn't have commented on the effects of Warped Space or how it was ever applied/used ingame since the Harlie skill set focused more around solo tactics as a few of the skills only work if you're alone or as one would have it, even on your own members. But now with the introduction of Art, the lacking skills that failed all the time now got a huge boost, allowing them to completely disable some of the classes or devastate a group. But then again I think about how cheap other skills/spells are in other cabals are if used affectively, so who cares. |

There are much more cheap tactics and exploitable bugs in other cabal skill/spellsets. As for any REAL newb being messed up by warped space, whatever. When I was a newb back in the day warped space was really really fun for me. |
