I'll never be able to do Mondays or Tuesdays, unfortunately.

Well, this isn't pressing, so I can put it on hold until time is less of a factor I suppose?

I say never postpone for something like that. Maybe even do it spontaneous if people happen to be on one time randomly.

Things have been quiet. Too quiet. If you log in tonight around 9pm there will be a brief combat RPT.

Patty · Post by **Patty** » Wed Mar 11, 2015 3:25 pm

Brief as in we all die...?

Icarus · Post by **Icarus** » Wed Mar 11, 2015 3:26 pm

Probably.

9pm in what timezone? Also, thanks for holding this RPT, things have definitely been pretty dead lately, and I haven't had the time to really get much happening

Icarus · Post by **Icarus** » Wed Mar 11, 2015 6:02 pm

9pm EST

Thank you all for coming out, you are surprisingly hard to kill. I was worried one or two would put up a challenge, but you ripped through them.

Next time, though. Next time I need to figure out how to kill you all.

Anyone who didn't show tonight missed a fun one. Thanks Icarus.

we all had a good time. Thanks for giving the orc sphere some love

.
I imagine it's definitely hard to get a good balance for difficulty between fluffy bunnies, and the 4 troll-spider squads that can KO an orc in 1 combat round. If npcs are set up in the same way as PCs, familiar combat skills and good in all stats would probably make them be able to stand up to players well enough, with gear being the main thing that gives players the edge and lets them feel like heroes

I like how he downplays the orc-sphere combat capabilities...

Though I wasn't here, didn't notice this announcement until well past it was over, I'd likely say that anything less than talented/adept as far as raw skills is likely to be all but laughed at compared to the coordination and general capability of the orc-sphere pcs. Do not be afraid to bump an npc up enough to actually wound someone and force a retreat. They don't always have to get to the bottom of the rabbit hole and win the treasure.

yeah, adroit skilled enemies would likely be manageable and fun if there are equal numbers, or they outnumber pcs 1.5:1
I found that I was actually able to see everyone's emotes during this combat RPT, due to there being smaller groups fighting one by one. In mob combats with 20+ enemies a lot of things get thrown to the wayside because focus on the code is needed to keep track of what's going on. So small groups of skilled enemies might really be the way to go.

Check the IG board for details. Let's get some life in this place.

Life? What's that? Is it a food?

<.<

I too am all for livening things up.

Icarus · Post by **Icarus** » Wed Mar 18, 2015 5:31 pm

Let us know if you need assistance!!

I missed it too, but you must have missed more than one if you think the orcs always get to the bottom and get their treasure. I remember several forced retreats.

we're going to do a follow up RPT to the last one, aiming for friday/saturday evening depending on when staff are available, I'll edit this post when I find the exact time. All wargs/orcs are welcome to attend.

Canawa · Post by **Canawa** » Thu Jun 25, 2015 9:40 am

Any update on this?

radioactivejesus · Post by **radioactivejesus** » Thu Jun 25, 2015 3:00 pm

We'll be starting at Saturday, 8pm EST!

Canawa · Post by **Canawa** » Thu Jun 25, 2015 3:39 pm

Dang, alright.

radioactivejesus · Post by **radioactivejesus** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 5:47 pm

20 more minutes and this event will be kicking off!

Icarus · Post by **Icarus** » Sat Jun 27, 2015 11:24 pm

Thank you guys for your patience on this one, we had some technical difficulties staff side that prevented some elements from moving forward as we had wanted. These technical problems should be resolved ASAP, but still, wanted to thank you for your patience.

radioactivejesus · Post by **radioactivejesus** » Mon Jul 06, 2015 9:21 pm

another event for this week. Thursday, 7pm EST. Hopefully we will be able to have some staff support during it

Patty · Post by **Patty** » Mon Jul 06, 2015 10:42 pm

We need to keep the ball rolling. I will try to be there.
