In battle, I played as an Arbalest and used a cannon skill, putting my special armament on cooldown. When I died, it caused me to lose items - including my offhand item. I know it was my offhand as it was named, and it was Vorpal so a curse did not affect it.

It requires more testing to ensure it wasn't some one-time bug for some reason - or it could be intentional, I'm not sure. I'll update later if I find out more.

Innate skills should act like passive skills, in that you can equip and unequip them (the difference being all innates would always cost 0 skill pool slots). The reason for this is to better test skills (you can compare with innates and without without using a class fruit/pie).

The passives that are two ranks should change their text to "Rank 2: This skill becomes an innate" just so Dev has more work to do, also.

Might sound funny, but I'd love this for personal reasons.

Character Name - Slurm

Request Type - Unique Chimera Appearance

Request Details - A unique Chimera with a lizard-like appearance as a result of being made from mainly Snakemen.

Reason for Request - I've been sitting on this idea for a while, of course in the beginning I thought of this concept because I thought it would be a nice juxtaposition to the usual style of character you see around SL2. However as time has gone on and I've spoken with a few individuals and realized that if I pair the unique appearance with the already horrific lore surrounding the sewers of Geladyne, it could be a good visual representation of the monsters that lie deeper in that area. As well as showing how far Geladyne was willing to experiment with Homunculi designs pre-reform.

Roleplay & Lore supporting your Request - Geladyne has been producing Homunculi for over two hundred years. In that time how Homunculi were treated and created has been all over the place, only recently granting them a right to being treated as people. In the time before, Geladyne aimed to create new types of Homunculi bred for more specific purposes, Slurm's batch being made as living chemical weapons for warfare. Unfortunately, the batch of snake-hybrids proved too child-like and unserious for proper military service, and due to the cheap nature of producing Chimera from Snakemen remains specifically, they simply chose to scrap the batch and dump them in the sewers (as was commonplace for Geladyne in the past). As time progressed, Slurm and his brothers lived and survived in the sewers, barely scraping by the horrific abominations around them, hunting rats for food, and occasionally eating lichen or mushrooms from the walls. Slowly, one by one, Slurm's Brothers fell, sometimes to disease, sometimes to other homunculi, and even to hunger on a few rare occasions. This continued until Slurm was all that remained. Him and his brothers had been planning to escape, to make it past the guards around the sewers and see the sun once again. With nothing left to lose after the loss of his final brother, Slurm followed the plan, dodging or killing monster after monster, setting traps to block small cramped pathways, and eventually managing to barely scrape by the Guards around the exit. With that, Slurm arrives to Korvara proper, sixty-odd years since being thrown away, not that he'd know the timescale of it all.

To begin explaining some specifics of the story:

Geladyne experimenting to create new types of Homunculi isn't uncommon, and utilizing different parts from monsters and ores to test the limits of Homunculi creation is how Salamandra were made. Duyuei kills hundreds of Snakemen daily, and oftentimes harvests their remains for all manner of purposes, leading to an excess in most cases. It wouldn't be hard for a Geladynian scientist to get their hands on an overabundance of Snakemen remains in order to create new batches of homunculi. And the project could've been shut down for all manner of reasons after Slurm's creation, thus why there are no other Homunculi alive like Slurm is today.

Slurm's appearance itself could be easily explained as an excess of Snakemen remains in his creation, giving him a more monster-like appearance than most Chimera. I also plan to make Slurm's build heavily based around poison and its affects to properly reflect his Snakemen origins.

Hi, Appo here.

I'm one of the few people to play an Umbral in consistent capacity, and after months of doing so I've come to a bunch of observations, both mechanical and flavour-wise, that I'd like to share with the class. This post here will be focusing solely on the mechanics that come with playing an Umbral. What they're like in combat, and how I feel about it. I'll keep suggestions on exact fixes to a minimum, because I'm certainly no balance extrordinaire, and know that any changes that come (if any) will look a lot different, anyhow.

With that in mind, let's get into it.
 

Hi, Appo here.

I'm one of the few people to play an Umbral in consistent capacity, and after months of doing so I've come to a bunch of observations, both mechanical and flavour-wise, that I'd like to share with the class. This post here will be focusing solely on the flavour of an Umbral. That is to say this is isolated from the mechanics and PvP / PvE of the game, and solely focused on how their identity is conveyed.

So let's get into it!
 

Self confusion has been quite interesting and also used for grieving. Being hit by someone and being unable to hit back hurts more than your opponents beating you down. 

So a buff to confusion, more so a buff to self confusion. If someone confuses themselves via shrooms or other means, allow the teammates to also be able to hit them in return.

Using a campfire to cook (and therein by place a pot atop it with the cooked food) has ceased working.

"There is a dense object in that location."

Currently, you are allowed to have a total of one (1) weapon slotted into your Item Belt, that you can swap with your main for 3M. There is, unless my brain functions even less than already I think it does, no way to increase this cap. The one thing you slot in there, plus your main weapon (and your sub, if applicable) is all you got.

I'd like to propose that we add ways to be able to keep more weapons in reserve. I understand that being able to swap weapons on the fly even at the cost of losing some momentum economy (unless you're a Shifty Pocket gamer) is pretty strong. But especially after things like the Red Letter nerf, and the fact you're depriving yourself of consumables in the process, I don't think it's strong enough that there should be absolutely no way to put at least one extra weapon in there. If you want my thoughts on how, a couple ideas come to mind.

• Make it a passive you can grab from Demon Hunter. Even with Martial Lawbreaker existing, I think most DH players will agree that part of the full donte the demon slayer power fantasy is swapping through tons of different weapons for sicknasty combos.
  
• Make it a Trait you can take. To prevent it from becoming one of the 'why would I ever not just take this purely beneficial bonus with the ten billion trait points we get?' ones, it'd probably need a stipulation or decently pricy cost attached. You might need X amount of ranks in all of the Weaponry talents, or maybe there's a minor scaling penalty so that you're trading raw power for versatility. Or just a stupid amount of Aptitude, like Undeniable Innovator.
  
• Make it an effect you can get from an equipped item, probably an Accessory. A lot of things compete for those slots, and I personally think using one of them to be able to cart along extra weapons is a perfectly fine tradeoff for one of them.
  
• Make it a special benefit you get from having two Magic Pocket enchantments active. Does this provide some pretty heavy synergy with Shifty Pocket? Yes. Are you trading an important enchantment slot on both your torso and footwear to make pulling a weapon out of your bag of tricks once a round your build? Yup. I want to say that's fair.
