Channeler Salt Factory

[Kerryk]

Pfft. I keep you around! Or let you keep me around? Or something that implies I'm in charge, please.

Can we nominate Taziar for most salty? Most of these posts disappoint.

Haha, I don't even play my channelers let alone PK and I win most salty? Very disappointing indeed!

[Naerin]

I'm more salty about the seeming downing of ABS weapons, up-ing of trinks, and the secret destruction of vial loads that are making my ABSers less fun to play currently! Looking for a census on active ABS trolls played by change-imms!

Amen! I was hoping ABS weapons would get stronger, not weaker, since it's generally the healthiest playstyle and helps keep the others in line. But for some reason the opposite is happening?

Just a check in from a first time FC player.

I assume my HPs have already been adjusted since they are exactly 280. From Illian so will probably change homeland.

You have 280(280) hit and 123(143) movement points.
This ranks you as Jesslyn of Illian (Level 37).
Your base abilities are: Str:11 Int:19 Wil:19 Dex:18 Con:14.


For us new players, what homelands have max dex rolls?

[Petra]

So actually Illian is still a solid choice I believe? It maxes out at 15 19 19 18 (280 hp).

The question then becomes whether you want to switch to a homeland which potentially has more str, at the cost of a mental stat - http://wotmud.wikia.com/wiki/Homeland

Pretty much-

Illian caps at 15 19 19 18 15, Con doesn't matter as much but as I recall it plays a roll in HP Regen.

So Illian still has 1 more Int and better hp regen than Altara Murandy or Tarabon which cap at 16 18 19 18 14.

I believe any of the above homelands are still decent choices.

[Vaen]

Contrary to Vaen I'm a little bit worried this might lead to an increase of detrimental auto-wimpy channeling rather than a decrease, even with less HP range for it to work around, but we shall see how that plays out!

Vaen didn't say anything about less auto-wimpy channeling because Vaen isn't disingenuous and knows players who generally play channies tend to use autowimpy extensively anyways. Vaen said it just reduces the margin of error for those people who already play this way.

And lol Mangler had more HPs than Vaen for most of Vaen's existence (353).

+1 even more so about the vial status

Wait til poor Jagang logs on

So when Jalagang was on last night, I confused him with Jagang (I was wondering why he wasn't an DL anymore). Then I realized it was Jagang I remember.. and not this Jalagang fella.

Is Jagang still around??!

[Mangler]

Jagang was too nice for this terrible world, so he stopped playing Jalagang is not nice. He's mean.
