OOC Boards / OOC Board / Proposed Screenshot Utility
|
on: May 10, 2018, 07:17:39 am

Hi all, Back on the free shard, I built a little utility that allowed me to dunk in a folder of cropped images, and it would spit out the following:  If I created a utility that allowed you to take screenshots with the press of a button, discard the ones you don't want, crop them in-app, combine them into something resembling the above and upload it to get a shareable url... ... would you use it? |

In Character Boards / Baronship Announcements / [RTR] Imbuing
|
on: May 09, 2018, 09:23:02 am

IMPORTANT NOTE: As of 05/06/18 a community-wide imbuing RoE is being discussed with other guilds that may replace these rules. Feel free to follow these rules as written now, but I advise you not to spend a lot of money on imbues that you may have to remove until discussions with the other guilds are finalised.
Hello all, and welcome to the post about the first major Baronship RoE change in probably a decade. In the time since the Baronship's activity waned, things have changed a lot. The game and the rest of the community moved on. Dungeons that were once relatively easy are now prohibitively challenging, even with a group of guardsmen. Other guilds have embraced imbuing as a response to this, leading to a huge disparity between our equipment and theirs.
As regrettable as this situation is, the bigger crime now would be to allow our guild to fall behind. Unable to meaningfully participate in inter-guild conflict or dungeon crawling, we would be locked out of some of the primary activities that we have historically based our roleplay around.
As such, we have decided to allow for limited imbuing of equipment. Please read and understand these rules fully, as repeated warnings about wearing OOC equipment may result in demotion or removal from the guild. If you have any questions, please contact us on Discord.
Allowed Imbues
Armour
* Hit Point / Mana / Stamina Regeneration
* Hit Point / Mana / Stamina Increase
* Resists
* Lower Reagent / Mana Cost
Shields
* Lower Requirements
* Defence Chance Increase
* Durability
Weapons
* Damage Increase
* Hit Chance Increase
* Balanced on bows only
Other Rules
* Mage armour may be used on bone helms only.
* Don't refer to it IC as imbuing. Even if we have to bend to accommodate the current state of the game, that doesn't mean we're a high fantasy guild. People should refer to it as armour polish, armour reinforcement, or basically anything that doesn't imply some magical power.
* No magic loot or artefacts, even if they are less powerful than what you would be able to imbue. This is just for consistency and to make it easier to tell at a glance who's breaking the rules or not.
Things That Aren't Rules, But Rather Heartfelt Requests
These things are totally unenforceable, so I won't bother referring to them as rules, but I'll like you more if you follow them.
* Obtain the ingredients needed for imbuing IN CHARACTER. I know it's 2018 and you all have non-RP alts with ten bajillion gold in the bank, and that's fine. However, obtaining some of the ingredients needed for imbuing is a great excuse for some hunts and patrols!
* If you're playing an elf, or concerned about eye strain, you may use the Night Sight imbue on a piece of jewelery. However, this is strongly discouraged as it's detrimental for RP.
The restrictions themselves are subject to change based on feedback and our own experiences going forwards, but we're striving to facilitate our involvement in the game beyond the Baronship without sacrificing the affordability, balance, or general in-character suitability of gear that we've always aimed to maintain. This means we still have a single RoE, which is to be followed 100% of the time. The Baronship of Cove is not a guild for part-time roleplay. We understand that these restrictions will still lock you out of some content, but a rookie guardsman from a backwater town is not supposed to be able to single-handedly slay dragons, demons and demi-gods. There is a tendency towards laxness when everybody is just coming out of hibernation, but moving forward we are going to be more strict in enforcing the rules of engagement to maintain the quality experience that's kept this guild in a treasured part of many hearts since its formation many years ago.
Thanks.
*Signed,*
Hoagie,
Commander
P.S. A huge thank you to those of you who have been active in game over the past few years, helping to shape our understanding of the issues around imbuing and its unfortunate necessity in unlocking a lot of the dungeons that were once easily trawlable in GM gear.

OOC Boards / OOC Board / Re: [POLL] Best day for activity / events?

I picked "monday", but really it's basically any week day. Weekends are doable, but unpredictable. I'll either be able to play loads, or barely at all on any given weekend, and I probably won't know for sure until not long before.
