HELLO? WHEN IS THIS HAPPENING

Uhm I better be getting an invitation

Yeah I can’t see **** so appreciate the tag

we did have antag, as well as ando'alur, dark harbour, cloudbreaker, and a few other pretty large events last map - ET have a lot of support and availability to use lore (alongside, for the first time ever shockingly, maplore). the map is young at just two months old and some ET i think just dont have the energy for a mega-eventline just after the Mori one, from which, a large complaint from players and ET alike were that large scale combat events on repeat or in succession just aren't very fun; which is why the more lax or explorative path by some ET is being taken doing different types of events other than "go here, kill stuff". There is plans for a lot of big stuff this map and obviously an ET can take on any project they'd like, the map is just pretty new and I don't think those options are fully ready to be explored when the ET is starting to ramp up again and isn't set back by lack of buildworlds, warps, and taking time to roleplay and enjoy the server as a primary during the team hiatus which ended only a month ago.

I just think calling it leashed or restrained is damaging and creates an image of a team not allowed to do what it wants to do, which is the polar opposite of the truth. I think we have all the tools available to our disposal (except curios :((( and better pve support :((() to make some good stuff happen. I know some ET like Aldukhan and Whitewolf are already doing/preparing regional eventlines for a larger group of players in the same vein as Naga, which I'm excited to see.

The team's just getting started- a month off hiatus and a week past team reforms and revival, I think we're set for a lot of really cool shit this map I'm very hopeful to see. A lot of maplore being utilized with posts being updated and players really making a difference and their impact on the world through those posts. I've gotten offers from CT to take videos and do posts, I am just cautious on overloading events with too many members and drastically lowering quality and individual impact on them, which has been something I personally have been really proud of with the Naga eventline i'm running personally. 

I think most of this then has just been a flam hate post as I think after their lore embargo all the hella rich n wild events left for a good portion of time, and I just haven't yet had the time or chance to feel that return on Aevos. Please understand I wasn't trying to insinuate a culprit or anything - I think all current ST (and you yes you) are wonderful and fit the role perfectly - I was more so trying to insinuate that they were held back, and well as you've suggested you're not trying to bloat the world already which makes a lotta sense

tl;dr was reminiscing of old events and Flam's lore embargo rlly killed my mood for the last few maps and haven't had the chance to see what Aevos' events look like. 

p.s. also wasn't trying to say anything bad about your eventline, I was using it as an example of 'seen it not heard about it' as I'd just like to hear about events, even if I'm not attending them I think it's nice for players to hear about stuff that is going on

yea i get what you mean, no hard feelings at all. it is just frustrating sometimes to hear people say things are bad and I don't know how they arrived at that conclusion. thank you for giving me your thought process and talking it out though, helps me paint a better picture.

We have spells & magics that rely on rituals, what new ones would we need?

It wouldn't be new ones!
My idea would sorta be like a feat or overhaul, (feat making it optional but irreversible, i.e. you either use the new system or just cast where you can see, you can't flick between them)

the idea would be, right now you can sit in a chair and as long as you have Line of Sight (LoS) you can just cast, only needing to do a tell

the feat/overhaul would be rather than just LoS, you have to do verbal+somatic elements, or do some sort of ritual to cast it, maybe the option to do one or the other depending on your situation

I.e. the new system, you can't just sit in a chair you'd have to be doing a verbal and loud incantation, as well as moving your hands or body to fulfil the spell, or if you're out in the open you would draw some sort of ritual around yourself

It'd also mean that maybe connection operates differently, maybe rather than just losing your entire spell if you fulfil the incantation or ritual (say drawing this circle with runes, or fulfilling a set of phrases and gestures) the spell can still be finished

It'd also mean that people would have different methods they'd have to use to break your connection, which could spice up rp rather than just pocket sand, such as getting you away from your ritual spot, or stopping you from talking / restraining your hands to keep you occupied - which to note, right now you could still technically cast a spell from behind a shield as long as you could see over/around it

I hid it

sad

Omg, me

i love being an aristocrat
i love being an aristocrat!!!

it's not weird to have farms the size of cities. it's weird to NOT have farms the size of cities outside. realistically speaking, most of Aevos should be farmland in order to support the population since a city cannot be fed by fields smaller than itself (especially not with medieval era farm technology (no synthetic fertilizers))

yes remember your city is filled with 100,000 NPCs 

I'm gonna try to make Talar'nor make more farmland then bc oml 

uh.. honsie :/
