  1. Mack usually has good quality shields in his shop. Swing by and pick one up.
  2. The change log is wonderful, thanks for that. Having everything in one place makes learning the new system much easier for me. :)
  3. Re-spec complete... I managed to keep all four ranks in 2 Handed Axe... while sacrificing athletics and heavy armor. I'm even more the glass cannon now.

      Something might be workable, Hirru.

      Seeing that after my Heavy Armor mitigation is equipped, I will tank 5 damage then heal 6 hp afterwards from the enemy hitting me (If I roll a 6 or higher on CD).

      This is going to be a fun build.

      I figured it was just a typo! :D Good luck with your builds!

  4. Alright, a head's up to everyone. I have to train someone new at work tonight, so no posting and what not tonight. At least not until I get home in about 9-10 hours. Sorry for those waiting.

  5. Also, a bit confused on how one levels up their Sword Arts? Do the high level characters just already have access to all the goodies?

    1. Calrex

      Calrex

      With the update comes increases in the skill prices, so likely not everyone will have Rank 5 on their abilities at the moment. Unless they specialized and had a lot of SP stocked up O_O

    2. Takao

      Takao

      You don't level up the sword arts, you get all the sword arts that coincide with your skill rank. So if you have Rank 3 in One Handed Straight Swords, you get all the rank 3 and lower sword arts.

  6. An announcement explaining the system update and, particularly, the re-spec requirements and what that does to existing stats would be very much appreciated. Mostly, I'd like to know if I need to re-spec Mack or not in order to keep the Glass Cannon build and whatnot.

    1. Mack

      Mack

      Yeah, Cal, that's how I read it too. I guess our quests are fine then.

    2. Tristan Delaney

      Tristan Delaney

      Yes they are fine. When im not busy ill be making a changelog of sorts for people to see

      A changelog would be immensely helpful :)

      The post gap between level 16 and level 22 is truly staggering

  8. Is hypothermia a thing in SAO?

    1. Carambit

      Carambit

      I mean they did seem to emphasize the need for warm clothing in the cold environments, like when Kirito went with Liz that time. But I can't think of any actual effects it would have... Maybe a status effect? Similar to paralysis but with freezing?

    2. Tristan Delaney

      Tristan Delaney

      Unless stated you won't suffer negative effects. Stated would be cases like Cerberus where the heat can burn.

    3. Kalesh

      Kalesh

      It should be noted that Lisbeth and Kirito did wear cloaks/jackets when going to see the dragon, so I suspect you would probably feel rather uncomfy at least :P

  9. Mack is loading up on goodies to share with the Assault Team when we go tackle the boss. Cheers. :)

    1. Mack

      Mack

      If I get everything I'm after... for the raid thread I'll have a Base Damage of 11, hit for 12 on a 9, and 13 on a 10... and on crits. I'll deal a hilarious -12 over two turns (-2 Bleed, -2 Burn, -2 Poison each for 2 turns).

      Tanks, eat your hearts out. Glass Cannon for the win. :)

  10. The crafting gods smile upon me today. 3 Perfect Items, 2 Rare Items, 1 Bad Item... total Job XP = 41.

    1. Mack

      Mack

      Guildies get a discount still.

    2. Xion

      Xion

      Ooh, how much exactly?

    3. Mack

      Mack

      I don't really know, Mack kind of applies the discount on a case by case basis. Of course, if Xion were to admit IC that Mack was the better blacksmith... he'd probably give Xion the armor set for free :)

      shoot! wish i could go to a live show of any kind, there's a neat one coming near me soon with a bunch of horses but not sure if i'm going yet 

    2. Mack

      Mack

      A bunch of horses? Sounds like Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede :)

    3. Koumori

      Koumori

      "There's a neat one coming with a bunch of horses"

      That statement isn't inherently bad, but I started thinking some funny things when I read that. I think I'm too tired.

  13. Who's got two thumbs and two tickets to Don Giovanni next month? This guy.

      Don't say that! If Deadpool isn't perfect I'll spiral into a deep and dark depression :(

      They just can't mess that up!

      Mack

      That works for me, Glory. Sorry, missed the comments until just now. Wasn't ignoring you. :)

      A sewing kit and some armor and 500 col for all those mats would be glorious. Pun intended.

      Glory

  16. Who wants crafting tools to increase their CD rolls and XP from crafts... let me know, now that I've made the good stuff for me... I shall make it for others as well. However, tools will NOT be given away for free. :)

    1. Mack

      Mack

  17. Quick head's up:

    1. I'm out of town tomorrow night through at least Friday night. Family stuff linked back to the earlier family thing I mentioned. I'll post if I can. Otherwise, see you all on Saturday night.

    2. I have to get my sermon done for work on Sunday, a few of you know I work as a Minister. I tend to keep that quiet. No, I'm not here to shove it down your throat, one of the reasons why Mack doesn't have a stated religious preference. :) But, it does mean that I have to get the sermon I've not started on yet done. :)

    1. Piera

      Piera

      I hope that you manage to enjoy your time with your family and that things go well.
      Also hope the muses inspire you for your sermon.

    2. Kalesh

      Seeya then, enjoy yourself if you can!

  19. The great thing about being old enough to drink? Three beers north of 7% ABV, a boilermaker, and another beer after. Win.

    1. Mack

      Mack

      Right? But not so much alcohol that I can't still type coherently, so win.

      Kids, the lesson is, know your limits... and always drink responsibly.

    2. Piera

      Piera

      *Thumbs up* Piera approves of this message ;)  Have fun Mack.

  21. Was out of town the past two days. Back now. Will have posts in threads tomorrow, beginning with Beoreson's "Feeding the Enemy" thread. Next weekend will also be out of town, recent death in the family... stuff needs doing.

    1. Beoreson

      Beoreson

      Sorry to hear about you're loss. Even if you are fine.

    2. Carambit

      Carambit

      Seriously sorry for your loss man :/

      Regardless, welcome back, and I hope things improve swiftly for you and your folks.

    3. Kalesh

      No worries, take all the time you think you need. Welcome back, though!

  22. Rolled up TWO Rare (+2 Enhancement) Items today. I can turn them into weapons, shields, or armor.

    Who wants them? 1st Come, 1st Served. Respond to the Status and we can work it out. :)

    1. Mack

      Mack

      Yeah, I checked your Journal and found you're rockin' the one-handed straight sword. I've got your blade up in the Evaluations area.

    2. Mack

      Mack

      Takao, your sword has been approved by the powers that be. Swing by the shop and pick it up :)

    3. Takao

      Takao

      Sweet. I'll stop by soonish.

  23. Lessa, my mustache will never be as fancy as yours.. and Tristan, I can't grow a beard like that. I can do goatee's but not beards. Looks like you had a good trip to Scotland. :) I'll dig through my photos to see what I can find from my last vacation.
