Request Details
Stheno over the course of her existence, has become a practicioner of Hexing and Mending, but due to her nature as a lone shaman, she has taken to procuring materials and modifying them for her purposes. Most importantly for her has been making her home bog a place where people cannot intervene, nor break her rules, and as such, has made many bindings, charms, and sigils of curses and hexes that activate on her whims to inflict bothersome effects on foolish people who come to her bog and disturb the nature, spirits, or break the rules of the Wiccan. These sigils, charms, and bindings, are all constructed with a magical ink, made using rare materials and much focus; The ink itself answers to magical essence, making it highly volatile and versatile, yet hard to destroy, as the inks link to the item, or person, and make a chain of focus and magicka, that takes advantage of the natural resources made by the Wiccan, to be long-lasting and surprisingly efficient to make.

However, for her to be just a hexer or grimweaver would be something she cannot permit herself, as her job is not to kill; She follows the laws of the Imala to heart, and as such, she also has developed a new way to restore the limbs and wounds of people, and it is by making a mixture of mud and magicka, an alchemical marvel of nature and magic, that allows her to create natural limbs for people, however, the only way to make it work is by using the patient's blood, which allows her to bind the mud and magic to their patient.

Specific Request
Magical Inks that allow the craft of hexing/cursing sigils, charms, and bindings. 
Magical Mud used for mending and crafting limbs to recover other's bodies.
(Will only be used or performed if the victim/patient consents to it.)

Reason why you are making this request 
I want funky powers to boost my character's story, while also accentuating her eccentric nature, making her seem futher weirder, and less trustworthy, with usage of magical arts that none other employs the way she does.

Roleplay & Lore supporting your request
The particular inspiration comes from how Homunculi are made in the first place, and while a bit different, I think it'd add more alternatives than the usual Gleamweaving and often simple traditional medicine, bringing in the concept that everyone could be made of mud, though it'd be ideally impossible to tell the difference unless you take a really close look at the limb that was replaced.

For the ink, I believe that there's a note on the lore that states that liquids are the best retainers of focus, so I think that making a magical ink with focus isn't too far fetched, and I believe it'd make for a different approach to grimweaving and hexing that most don't employ.

Making this in the event that Dev may have forgotten, but according to him, Korvara doesn't have certain Tome parts readily available in chests as expected. To my knowledge, the Metal Binding (highly sought after) is one of them. I can't recall which other ones, though. Please chime in if you've noticed other Tome parts being absent.

Quote:As long as you do not have a sub weapon or a shield equiped in your hands slots, you can use fist skills without having a fist equiped, using bare hands as weapon for scaling spells, bla bla sub attack.

Yes, Firefox kind of sucks beyond having decent evade at lvl 80 to annoy some people with, but this thread is to rectify one thing.

Firefox is considered a Beast, not a Fireblood. If it isn't possible for mobs to have multiple races I'd say it'd make more sense they be Fireblood. This would also (probably) fix the fact they can spawn Pale Lauders despite being made out of fire.

I'd take just having the last part fixed if nothing else.

Anyone who has ever made a magic gunner knows the struggle. You're looking at the archer skills and go "Okay, which skills here aren't completely useless?" The answer is always the same, so you grab all the skills that aren't completely useless to you. Then you're still left with points left over... Ough.

Here's my proposal:

- Make keyshot work with guns too (Why not???)
- Make snipe work with guns, at least rifles (It's literally called snipe and you can't use it with a sniper rifle? I understand that range bonuses are really good, but still. You could just drop that clause for guns)
- Add at least one offensive ability that guns can use

The only guns that are good are
- Dual handgun for consistent on-hits and crits, probably using toyatori and maybe ryeser. 
- Excel sniper (but that got nerfed recently)
- Crazy coyote which is almost too powerful.

Meanwhile, guns suffer from complete lack of aoe (except DH) and a general lack of skills related to them. The VAST majority of the power of guns comes directly from Magic Gunner, which I think is a bit of a shame. Guns are a fairly unique and cool weapon class, and could be expanded upon. I think that making arbalest able to use rifles was a breath of fresh air, exactly the kind of thing we need to bring guns somewhere good. I think one of the biggest drawbacks of guns is that it's a guile weapon with almost no crit bonuses. Engineer gunners have one or two tools for that, but the others don't. Making gun builds overall better by making archer an actual gun/bow class would be a good start imo. Funnily enough, fortune wind is by far the best part of archer imo (and longdraw/snake shot for bows ofc), so it at least has that going for it. But still. The thing about guns is that they're supposed to be a basic attack weapon and have a lot of theoretical advantages, but not that much support for basic attacking (no crit/the only basic attack skill you have is parting shot, which isn't an offensive skill). Daggers basically outpace them in everything except hit (Kinda) ever since throwing daggers got introduced.

At least for demon hunter gunners, soldier still has some usefulness despite having no direct gun skills, especially with martial lawbreaker. Engineer is also ok since rogue is so versatile, although engineers with guns aren't really gunners, just grenade spammers, so you can hardly call it a gun class (flamethrower buff when? One more engie gun skill to seal the deal?). But I'm not gonna go on about those two.

And finally, please fix Soul Shot and Evil Force. It's been years, when can I make my edgy amalgama gunner

Edit: probably shoulda put this in balance fu

With the inclusion of many more Jump (the talent) points introduced in Korvara since the inception of the talent, and the more IC-oriented focus of Korvara compared to G6....

It has always struck me as strange that winged races who can quite clearly fly to a reasonable degree, still need to buy the Jump talent in order to clear ledges or gaps that use Jump points to navigate.

While I'd love to get over those 2 pixel wide ledges in other maps I think it's a reasonable ask that Corbies, Phenex, and Herons (Omina is a weird one since they can technically have wings but I am unsure if they possess the means to fly as well if at all compared to the others) be able to traverse Jump points without the talent. This could also apply to Chimera who eat dragon remains. (F to my Chimera homies you'll get your W someday kings)

and if you remember g6 Liches could also get this since they straight up teleport to move with a racial trait of theirs.

I wouldn't make it a trait or anything, as its comparative strength is a 0.5 talent point dump.

It just feels very silly to me that races with wings that can clearly fly must buy into a talent to leap. Oh right. Leaping. Leporidae should have this by default too. They literally have leaping as a racial skill from the get go. Why do they need to pay a talent point to jump.

I'm looking for a GM to privately discuss the details of an eventline that would be very large in scale. Thank you!

(Note: This is related to the Meiaquar guild, Dredgers Logis).

They may be old hat by now, but I still miss them strongly from SL1; Jammer hats.
They were cute. They were a fun, quirky bit of lore. They were a nice splash of wacky colour that lended a nice twist to a slime-type fantasy creature.
Jammer hats were heckin' rad.

Could we potentially get them as mirror shards or otherwise as icon parts in general?
