Don't you *love* it when...

[Mattman20]

Well I've been meaning to make this thread for a looooong time now, ever since I saw the "Don't you hate it when..." thread existed actually, but never got around to it. So now I'm making it, and I'm taking Badstench's advice and making it totally unique to this new forum.

To start things off..

Don't you *love* it when you're undertaking a challenge at Zumryn's and you decide to skip out on healing next round even though you're near to death and you get a blue healing orb and catch it? I know I sure do.

Don't you love it when you create a character and complete Axepath for the first time and get the Creyn Blade on your first try? Yeahhhh.

Hope this thread sticks, at least somewhat.
Some of it may be overlap with Shameless Bragging, but I still feel that the two threads are unique, at least somewhat.
If not, lemme know and I'll delete it, at least somewhat. :rolleyes: But seriously.

[thingirl]

Don't you just *love* it when you die once and then defeat Ghor-tiln?

[Mattman20]

Dang...I didn't even defeat Ghor-tiln :o
But good job though! :)

Don't you love it when you take a portal during the Lords of Ogredom challenge and don't encounter any Skeletal Ogres at all?

[Oldschool]

Don't you love it when you're out of NR, Quickstone heals and go into a round in the Battlegrounds figuring on fleeing and get a black orb. :D

[Hastifer]

Hear! Hear! (I agree) I bank on that rare bit of luck sometimes! (Only had it once)

...
Don't you love it when you think your wand only does around 200 damage tops, and get pleasantly surprised with a 315? (vs Xarrak at that!)

[electrox]

Don't you love it when you're a free player and then you get AG status?

[thingirl]

Yes! Now you will have even more things to love about.

When you get the BRK and the portal drops you on level 19 and then a few levels later go through another portal and get dropped on level 24. And survive with the item.

[Badstench]

Don't you love it when your dear old Mum (who has come to stay for a few days) makes your coffee because you're too busy at the battlegounds?

[Jesphulin]

Don't you love it when you get an orb in Tarn without re-spinning?

[psychoadept]

LOVE LOVE LOVE

I reached 33 on Lords of Ogredom, which was my previous record. Killed the guy only by virtue of both my quickstones *and* wand. Still had a little NV left, though, so I healed up and went on to 34 figuring I'd have to flee. But I got a portal to skip levels, instead. AND that portal got me the Blue Flame Wreathed portal and the key.

I ended up at Level 38, which was black for me. At that point I ran away screaming. More or less.

[zmflavius]

Wait, 133!?!?! Are you sure you don't mean 33?

[psychoadept]

Wait, 133!?!?! Are you sure you don't mean 33?

Yeah. I do. I'm just used to typing 1-- becaue of Bone Horde...

Fixed it now...

THAT'S nothing. I diddn't get a screen shot, but don't you just love it when the MP bug kicks in and saves your skin? Xarakk got me down to -24 SP in the round I was forced to retreat.

Nice and never thought about it but another use for fortification much like using a BoP when fleeing although you may still take damage using Fortification. For others that may not know you can right click then open in a new window/tab where you can view it easier. Have some rep for pointing out another reason why Fortification's combat use shouldn't be overlooked.

[thingirl]

When the first 9 buildings in Tarn all have 3 monsters. And the first five are undead.

[thingirl]

I know this is a double post, but.
Don't you love it when you catch 3 orbs of destruction in BHC and boost your level to 130:D:cool:

[zmflavius]

Something like 14 of the houses in Tarn are filled with Undead, cave goblins, or armored scavengers?

When what happens? I see from context it's got something to do with Fortification, but I need a more detailed description of the screenshot, please. Opening it in a new tab wouldn't help me much. No functional eyes, you see.

[shadowblack]

He had just ONE Stamina point left, and successfully fled from combat (from an enemy that was 6+ to hit).

[Taleria]

Whoa! Cutting it a bit close there. Now I see what Matt meant about the adrenaline rush. I've run away with maybe 8 SP left, but I don't think I've done it successfully with 1.

Thanks for the prompt explanation, Shadowblack. I'll rep you. (I keep wanting to say "Exalt.")

[Oldschool]

Taleria's post got me thinking about the flee bug in mp's. Can't recall the specifics but if I remember correctly one can flee and take damage over his or her remaining SP and still survive. Also, maybe this only happens when an enemy special kicks in - my memory's a bit fuzzy on this and necrothreading across forums doesn't hold the same seductive sway. :)

Is this correct and does it still exist?

[Mattman20]

When you are "forced to retreat" you can take dmg that would normally kill you and still make it out alive. But if you go to flee manually you can still be killed. And yes it still exists.

Thanks, repped. Hopefully, this time it'll "take" and I'll remember the specifics - lol.

[Chareos]

Don't you just love it when you haven't seen a blue orb for ages, use up your remaining NVR and fill your SP and then get a blue orb which does you no good whatsoever? Hang on wrong thread lol

Well let's try this again.....

Well I could lie and save face but apologies and have a conciliatory rep Thingirl.

Actually I read all the posts it just seems that some of my "mispent youth" may be catching up with me. That and a little reaping what I sowed since when I was younger I often poked fun at my older co-workers memory issues. Don't feel too bad as this is at least the second time that Mattman has had to whack my memory awake on this issue.

EDIT:

Seems like that "mispent youth" may have affected more than my memory....

Oh and to make matters worse I accidentally hit edit/delete the post (mod tool) and thought I'd hit quote on Thingirl's post - notice the "edit line".

I think I'll go eat some fish and then take a nap. :o

[thingirl]

's OK. Oh and fish got me thinking about a song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCQSitE-nQ4).

[Young Ned]

Been a long time since I heard that song, thingirl. Have a rep. :cool:

[shadowblack]

I finished Tarn and got the 512/128 reward, but no orb. I tried again, and this time I got an orb, but the reward was 384/64... First time I see the rewar change like that.

I didn't try again because the battle against Xarakk had started and I wanted to recharge my Finger (and I did, too).

[thingirl]

There were several such posts, and I would LOVE to know what you do/don't do to get an XP reset, or to find when/where that XP reward is set.

Also: did wetheril make it over to the new board?

[thingirl]

Probably when you spin the wheel (of fortune sorry, couldn't resist) This would be a good thing for the Tarn thread.

[Joddelle]

I'm pretty sure it's not when you spin the wheel. At least not normally. I've never got a different XP result on a restart of Tarn, even the one time I got a 256xp AS&P award, it kept coming up 256 over and over while I tried for the Blue Stone Orb.

If it were normally determined at that point, the reward would vary quite a lot on retrys.

[thingirl]

Suggustions: When you...
Kill the spider
Clear the last building (not likely)
Spin the wheel (also not likely)
Some time in lower Tarn (not at the beginning, could have changed).

[Joddelle]

I know it's not conisistently any of those. I've tested them all, and like I said, never had the XP award vary.

The lower Tarn thing is simply impossible, since you can get the award without going there.

I've done ONE building, retreated to Trithik, and come back to finish Tarn, and quit without saving when I got the XP. For me - this always give me the same award until I click on through the XP and do the city fresh three hours later.

Anyway, this isn't the thread for this discussion.

Wetheril has been missing for sometime now. She was online playing the game like only once or twice in the start of June. The last time she signed on in the old forum was June 9.

LOL! I remember the first time I heard a snippet of that song. It hasn't lost its hilarity. Repping you for brightening my day. :)

[thingirl]

Thank you, have one back. ;)

[Mattman20]

Don't you love it when..

..a thread gets hi-jacked. ;)

[thingirl]

Don't you love it when...

...You get your first gem. I know, not very much, but I was searching for DAYS.

[zmflavius]

you get two portals in a row and somehow manage to escape, albeit, with 13 sp?

[thingirl]

In BHC, you get a level skip (and have to use 20s) and come out and get (and catch) a healing orb.

[zmflavius]

you get the item you want from a haunting in Durnsig on your first try.

[thingirl]

Boo you. + Repped.

[Chareos]

You meet the ghost lady twice in one run of BHC and pass both for a total of 3072 general xp and 768 ASP!!! :-)

[psychoadept]

Holy cow!

I was doing Bone Horde, and wasn't paying close attention so I stumbled into a tougher battle with the Hale Blade rather than switching to my highest MR.

I was down to 22 SP with the undead thing only down to about half and just waiting for my SP to drop below 20 to use a QS heal, when suddenly I was fully healed! The Hale Blade healed me ALL THE WAY. 167 SP. I hadn't even realized it could do that.

[Joddelle]

Congrats on discovering the Hale Blade's Special-special!
Repped for making me feel nostalgic

Edit: Well - if I remember I'll rep you after I've spread it around, I guess

[psychoadept]

Aw, you love me too much. :)

[spencer]

Don't you love it when you get exactly how many SP you need using only one Restoration spell?

[zmflavius]

when you successfully grab a blue orb right after getting another gem?

[shadowblack]

AFTER recharging my Finger:
According to the reports from adventurers returning from battle, the mighty demon is relatively unscathed.

He was at 95%, to be exact. In about 5% I got all three onyx bands.

[thingirl]

This happens. You've got 1 SP left and your Power fails and you don't die.

[psychoadept]

In Bone Horde, you get 3 portals (for a total of nine levels) and 4 orbs all right on top of each other. And some nice loot to finish it off.

(If only it could have happened at a higher level... but I didn't have to use Resto on this run until Level 100)

[thingirl]

Here's a hint since you've discovered the Hale Blade's true Power.



If you wield Hale during Zumryn's, you don't usually have to use Restro until after you switch back to your normal weapon.

[psychoadept]

Yeah, that's usually true. But once it gets to 5+ or 6+ I'm usually losing too much SP for Hale Blade to earn its keep.

[thingirl]

Speakin' of Hale:

Don't you just love it when, you accidently sell Hale, but quit and find that you forget to save after you sold your stuff, so you still have it. But, I did lose a FV on level 27 of BHC and now have to wait 3 hours to do BCH aginn. But, I will get to see if FVs get recorded if you bow out, but then quit without saveing.

[Elrond]

Don't you just love it when you get a 2nd portal after lvl 54 of the Ogredom Challenge and find yourself on lvl 58 after stepping out of the portal?

[Oldschool]

You get gem #5 and get to the lowest level in your "normal" ending level range after exiting the temple?

You're doing Stoneback Hill and your Black Steel Axe flies out of your hand and kills your enemy? Not once, but twice during the adventure. On top of that, it was when I needed it most, against actual enemies who counted.

[Zeriken]

Thane Pyrond was utterly right?

You announce that "Zeriken" will be your assumed name for all matters dealing with Saarngard Isle and the Thane rolls his eyes in response.

"Zeriken?" he says, repeating the name in an incredulous tone. "I should have thought you would have come up with something a bit more clever than that! Another jest, I'm afraid, Zerikal! Or, I should say...Zeriken."


I am greatly amused.

[psychoadept]

...you get a portal as soon as you enter Ogredom (at level 14). Got five of the gems now. Halfway there!

Nice Psychoadept. I've been running my secondaries mostly through Fogbough with a rare trip through LoO. No gems or empty pouches yet for any of them - maybe it's time to change it up a bit.

By the way, have I mentioned ;) that I'd like to see the temple appearance rate tweaked since the Bowl of Blood has went live?

[psychoadept]

By the way, have I mentioned ;) that I'd like to see the temple appearance rate tweaked since the Bowl of Blood has went live?

Maybe it's just that my luck has radically changed, but it seems like it has gotten better. Counting Xaran's last few visits, I've gotten at least one portal on every one of my last five runs through Ogredom.

Yes, it doesn't happen often, but every once in a while the BSA will instantly kill your current (undead) opponent, regardless of how many SP they have left. I suspect that's a major reason why none of the multiplayer opponents are undead...

Repped

[thingirl]

I concur. Although, couldn't the GM code the MP and BSA against that?

[Young Ned]

I concur. Although, couldn't the GM code the MP and BSA against that?

Good point. True, it likely wouldn't be too hard to prevent that from happening in an MP. Probably the simplest solution would be to put a cap on the max damage the black steel axe can do in its "instakill" mode. We just saw a case where it did over 1100 damage to something, so we'd probably want to cap it at, say, 1500 or 2000 to make sure it can still take out any non-MP opponent.

Although that would still be a lot more damage than anyone can normally do, so you might get everybody using their BSAs in a fight against an undead MP opponent. If enough people managed to zap it, the battle could be shortened significantly. So it might be preferable (though perhaps a little more complicated) to ensure that the BSA can't do an instakill at all when used in an MP.

Given the amount of time it takes the GM to code new content, though, he probably doesn't want to revisit old code like the BSA if he can avoid it, especially since any change to working code can inadvertently change it into non-working code, which then needs to be debugged, fixed, and retested... possibly more than once, if the first fix doesn't quite work. So my guess would be that he's simply avoiding the problem by not creating an undead MP opponent.

[thingirl]

Which makes seance. It's probably a dumb idea, especially because Stinky rejected it, but a nice MP would be Skargok or whatever his name is. His statue, animated thought it can be, is just a statue. The real thing would be nice.

Don't you love it then the GM posts?

[zmflavius]

All of it's moot right now as there are no undead MP scenarios.

[thingirl]

True. And Ildraria is getting mad at Alanne, who is cowering in a corner while I do other stuff (like the homework that's due tomorrow that I've blown off).

[Joddelle]

No, he didn't

[thingirl]

Maybe he didn't. There was is grounds for confusion, as I obviously read it wrong.

[racey]

Maybe he didn't. There was is grounds for confusion, as I obviously read it wrong.

In your defense if you take his post in context with his Axepath posts you could read between the lines a little and assume he did indeed mean from Axepath. Thank God I'm not an attorney.

[thingirl]

If you were and someone wanted to take me to court (not court me, I'm too young for that :p), I would want you as my lawyer.

[smv1973]

I found the ghost lady 3 time in the same run through the BHC. I got the 256/1,024 reward for all 3.

[spencer]

So, let's just say that you decide that you want to try and best your top score in BHC, and, with that in mind, you wait until you get a green mushroom from Fogbough and you buy a Luriador stone. You wait until there is a fierce, ravaging wind and you start out at the highest level possible, say, level 35. You're tooling merrily along, getting lots of orbs and a good number of shortcut portals and lo and behold, the ghost lady appears...and, of course, you take her hand and, of course you get 512/2048 and smile and decide whether or not to bail at level 120 or so. Sticking with it, you progress a little further and she appears again for 256/1024 and you really want to leave but you do have that Luriador stone and all and say what they hey and keep going. You get to six levels from your highest level, say 170 and get a black orb to go on to 177, which is your record and have the luxury of using the stone 10 times to clear the last three levels to get to 180..and you finally leave, having beat your record by 5 levels and getting 768 to all S and P and about 4800 general xp. I LOVE it when the planets line up for you like that :)

As an aside, it was a gentle breeze when I left, so I imagine it switched over some time before I found the ghost lady the first time, but I don't know for sure.

Friend of Gil-Nor?

That's more of a brag than a love.

well the ring of healing takes no special effort (except choosing a wimp character stat-wise)

but to humor you, I put it better below --

...when you get healed twice in the same round that you dodge your enemy's attack

Did Hale give you a full heal? Wait, I don't want to know.

[thingirl]

Aww, well, Alanne is on top of Mt. Stonjaw right now (It's live- Yesssssssss!), so she can't hurt you. Unless you are there too.

[Oldschool]

... you have the following to go grinding with:

Hale Blade
Ring of Healing
Nimble Plate Boots

next stop medallion of phase form

Very nice kit indeed.

[Young Ned]

I don't remember ever hearing of the Ring of Healing before. Is that starting equipment on one of the pre-generated characters? Some of them do have unique items you can't find anywhere else.

[Joddelle]

I don't remember ever hearing of the Ring of Healing before. Is that starting equipment on one of the pre-generated characters? Some of them do have unique items you can't find anywhere else.

Yes - Pregen character Halehand (http://www.sryth.com/game/ci.php?f_c=member_createpc_roster.inc&f_pg=halehand) has the ring of healing.

[Young Ned]

Aha, thought that must be it. Interesting. :cool:

[thingirl]

This was one of the questions in "The repping room". I got it.

[Young Ned]

The most interesting pre-gen character I've seen so far is Spellhurler, who starts out with nine powers: everything but Necromancy and Shadow Magic. He has a really hard time with the startup scenario that gives you Necro for free, though, because none of his 9 powers are very high, he has relatively little NR to start with, his stats (like all the pre-gen characters) are pretty random, and his melee skills are pretty much nonexistent.

Fortunately, you can complete it successfully even if you flee most of the battles, which is what I ended up having to do to get him through it. :cool:

[thingirl]

Zm said that Spellhurler (who he renammed Sae) starts with 14 NVR.

[Young Ned]

Is that good or bad? Been a long time since I started a new character. Been a long time since I played around with Spellhurler, too, so I may have misremembered his NR being low.

His MR and SP are both quite low, though, which doesn't help either.

[thingirl]

14 NVR is awesome.

[Young Ned]

Oh, okay. It doesn't help much, though, since his skills are mostly in the 10-20 range, IIRC.

[thingirl]

I think Zm has Sae (and Ln for that matter) mostly for RP purposes.

[zmflavius]

I actually had Sae just do a random startup and get necromancy from Ethulle. The skeletons in wandering undead are 14+ for him!

edit: like the first band, which is usually like 9+ for everyone else.

[thingirl]

I'm not surprised. Because otherwise, her instruction is useless.

(wild thought: it would be hard to implement this in retrospect, but what if Ethulle gave SM if you already had the other 10 powers?)

[Young Ned]

Ah, that makes sense. I was just playing around with Spellhurler a bit; never even considered taking him as far as the Murk. If I really wanted to play him, then yes, it would be more reasonable to take some other startup scenario and get Necro from Ethulle.

What about Daggerspire? If you already have Elementalism, does it just increase your level a bit, or do you get nothing?

[zmflavius]

if you already have elementalism, your elementalism lvl is increased by 5.

[thingirl]

That is the way it is for anybody who has it, correct?

[thingirl]

I just had a good run of Axepath with Layla. She got an UM bone Breastplate AND the 128/32 reward. Not to mention that this is only the second time she has defeated Lord Creyn.

[Joddelle]

...you get all three weapons from Xarakk, turn them in for the Finger of death, and then get all three onyx bands. All in one battle!

Also got top damage and for frosting there was a Bone Icon drop!

Everything but the killing blow!

[thingirl]

Wow. I think Alanne got all 3 weapons and all 3 bands in the same battle. She didn't get top damage though. After my experience earlier today, I don't think I'm gonna use the Finger much.

[Oldschool]

You can still pick up armour pieces with 5+ SP rating to put in storage. Did you already buy raffle tickets for this raffle?

Making back the 500k gold wasn't the reason I've been hitting the grinds lately, but having accomplished that as a side goal is just a perk. :)

Yeah, I bought my raffle tickets for the current one. And I've stored a few items from yesterday's quest in one of my residences. So, I'm gonna have to wait some time before I pick up gold from the game. And hopefully that won't be too long down the road.

3) An then another black orb at level 40...

That's an increase of 3 levels. I'm not sure if the first black orb I found on my previous visit had 2 or 3 charges...

The Bone Horde Challenge - Level 1

The low, pulsing hum of the portal before you is suddenly replaced by an eerie silence. You watch in fascination as the ghostly, glowing figure of a young woman, clad in flowing robes, slowly emerges from the vortex.

The glowing spirit turns her youthful face toward you and you are quick to note the deep sadness her expression readily betrays.

"Take my hand," she says, in a voice as soft as a gentle breeze. "You give us hope against this horde. I will do what I can to help you..."

The ghost of the young woman stretches out her hand toward you...

Take her hand...
Refuse to take it...


Don't you hate it when you then go 218 more combat encounters and you don't see her again.

Don't you love it when the very first item you get from the Giant Pumpkin in Durnsig is: Nimble Plate Boots. I had decided that I'll take either the plate boots or the Dragonwing Breastplate, and I got the boots on attempt #1! Yay!

You make three consecutive trips to the Windowless Tower in Fogbough, and you get three dragon goblin totems :D

You get an orb on three straight runs through Tarn, spinning the wheel only one time each...and then you get this at the idol...

The bright glow rapidly fades, and you're left feeling exhilerated and rejuvenated in its wake...

You curiously note that the three blue orbs you placed in the impressions on the idol are gone.
