Magic Plugin Low-Down

[Ivran 137]

Compensating old mages should be easy enough by taking into account who was a holder of an MA when they were removed. Anyone who's been using magic that long should get some sort of bonus.

 

That'd be quite a bit of work, which isn't really needed. You can still RP your magic.

Just because someone has magic involving nature doesn't make it Druidism. If you have a huge problem with it, hunt them down like the wannabe Druid heretic filth that they are :P it's not like them having the spells lessens or cheapens your RP in any way.

When people wanted a magic plugin, I don't think they also wanted to say **** off to the three years of established magical lore as well.

 

The magic plugin was a lot of work, I realize that. You know what else was a lot of work, though? Three years worth of collective role-play and lore writing.

 

This just makes LotC an even closer comparison to some MMO.

 

***Sam wants me to be nice. I'm censoring this post***

 

I honestly think your coding was a ***FANTASTIC USE*** of time if this is what you came up with. I think this plugin sounds ***NOT*** stupid I shouldn't even have to explain why.

 

A large part of the reason ***NO*** magic users wanted a plugin was so that they could fend off PvPers with it and 'be' something in battles other than another iron sword armored guy, which honestly sounds like a better idea right now. HOWEVER, now ANYBODY has access to ALL of your spells, and current mages aren't compensated at all for what they've done. ***GREAT***!

 

You meditate to learn spells. That makes as much sense as sleeping with an iron sword and suddenly waking up and knowing how to counter-riposte ***MAKES SENSE TO ME***. You're trying to make our server's magic system even more like skyrim than it already is. Where did any of our originality go? So a shaman RPly can walk into the Druid's Grove, meditate, and pow ***MI GED DREWEED ZPELLZ!***

 

I can't understand how the magic plugin we were hyped for got turned into this.

 

@Chi:

Emily: Lore should be dictating the form of the plugin, not the plugin dictating the form of the lore.

We already planned this :))))

What other nature magic does LotC have?

[hex37 737]

Yeah seriously though, a lot of this plugin breaks lore.

 

 

 

...just happy it's not based on books.

I really don't see why it's such a huge deal. The point was to give mages a PVP aspect. It's not like we're going to close up magic again, everyone can learn unlocked subtypes whenever they want, that was the deal when the MT was dissolved. People can still do just that. Now makes can be makes in fighting though.

The point being argued is that the plugin is at least partially unlocking a locked subtype.

But now it's much easier for people to learn powerful mage spells to pvp with instead of using iron swords. And you know EVERYONE will.

Am I the only one whio thought you meditate for evocation "Nature" spells? like fire balls, ice spears, earth, etc.

[CosmicWhaleShark 2488]

I look forward to seeing how people attempt to abuse this open plugin in future endeavors within a PvP default, raid-esque environment.

[hex37 737]

The only thing I find as bad is that it's based on meditating over land. Void don't work like that.

 

 

Also what wardog said.

If all the "PVP-Hungry human organizations" which I tend to usually "brazenly denounce" ever had a chance to show me that they're actually a little interested in RP, rather than PVP, it'd be now. I'm going to have fun seeing whether or not they suddenly accept all kinds of crazy magic into their ranks.
