People have made it a point “10 blocks moving per emote” generally, but that’s when also doing other things as well. What if you’re doing a dead sprint? Do we get a dash action?

Different sources say different stuff. My sources said 8.7, but – on that note, I’m glad that you actually sent through useful links, trying to prove by arguments. Hats off to you @Dunstan

Those around for/those subject to being cast on by a mental mage:
Was the problem with mental magic the premise of what it did, or the fact that you pretty much couldn’t fight it and just got fucked over no matter what unless you yourself were also a mental mage and/or shade/cognat?

Merging mental magic with sensory makes about as much sense as merging translo with shifting; it only sounds decent to people who know nothing about how the magic actually works/didn’t actively practice it.
Point seems to generally be “metagaming.”
My thought on fixing it would be to buff mental barriers to be an actual conflict between a mental mage and target, and make them easier to get(not including wards). Have mental barriers able to come back up depending on if the mental mage tries to do certain things, rather than being a one-time weak way of attempting a defense.
Though that doesn’t take into account the fact that you’re immediately considered suspect if you refuse to let your mind be looked through. So I pose my next question:
If the intent was to write mental magic mostly true to its roots, what would be a way to stop people from demanding to check your head? I don’t particularly want to remove the ability to enter someone’s mind, but change how it works once inside.
My idea would be to write in something like this: If you fight the mental mage, and lose(though you could very well win this as well), then you cannot give fake memories. This would then be added in with the fact that more mental barriers could be thrown up in cases of personal things being looked at, etc(mental barriers not just being a 1 trick anymore but a continuous). However, if you willingly accept them into your head, you would be considered calm and collected enough mentally in order to give a fake recollection of an event, making it infeasible to just demand to look inside your head. Of course, with added methods to prevent a “Let me in your head, but fight me with a barrier first so you can’t do fake memories!”

the win or lose thing with barriers is good, i was thinking the same thing and then i realised you’d said it lol. though i think you should be able to get in with ease if they’re unconscious or incapacitated. something interesting could also be that you’re able to get in if they’re under the influence of drugs or alcohol, but all the mental **** you see is also affected by that.
i definitely think if you straight up accept it and get rid of barriers, you should for sure be able to tell unwhole truths and whatever.
tbh i think you’ve got this figured out and can definitely write some cool **** for it, obviously just make sure you don’t put in things that straight up fucks mental mages from doing anything whatsoever.

You need to put your username in your forum profile so people actually know who you are.. I see you around on the forums but no clue who you are in game! Fix this! :(

I like how everyone says in a straight up magic only fight a holy mage would beat a dark mage. Dark mages have void magic, which holy does not stop.

Also because there's like 30 different types of dark magic or creatures or groups present, quite a few that Holy magic cannot actually affect anyways, then they can mix these different dark magics and creatures together, then they can mix in voidal magic as well.
Yet apparently Dark magic is the underpowered element here according to some people?Also the amount of dark magics that simply have an event style 'win button' where they can just cast a massive spell and win and there's nothing the holy magic users can do about it either. Siege level spells and rituals that holy magic simply does not have any sort of counter to because we're constantly getting held back by staff teams that would rather make sure we can't do anything past play vs play interactions.
A lot of what holy magic is simply isn't creative, but the problem is any time we try to add any sort of creativity to it we're met with "This dark magic already does that". It gets quite difficult coming up with new an interesting things that are also unique and not taken by another magic or creature or group when dark magic is so heavily stacked in the different varieties of it. -
I agree with some of that. I by no means think holy guys get the short end of the stick. They've a public backing most of the time, and lots of other help provided to them. I just think they as well need a buff, or at least the capability to freely mix voidal magic with deity without "demi ascended" needed or any of that stuff. But even then I dont think many holy people are fans of that idea
Also, with my earlier post on this p r e m i u m status update. Wish it could be more of "Hey, there's something that's a gray area and undefined in our magic.. Guess we'll say we can do it unless LT tells us no" rather then "Hey, it's a gray area. Better stay away from that for the time being!"

My pet peeve is people collecting last names. I don’t have a reason, it just annoys me.
-
Because nobody can say that their RP characters are better fighters than anyone and most people don’t have anything but the “win” mentality, isn’t making a super large character just an excuse to say “Because we have to be evenly matched in swordplay, I will win because of my better strength!” ?
At least the people who don’t RP anything bad about being large. This doesn’t define every single person of course.

I've been looking at your forum name for almost a year now and I only just realized that the last bit of it is just "Trinn" backwards.
