New patch out, short version is you can now hug enemies to death, the weapon class special attacks are now tied to a limit break gauge of some kind, and you can now put melee weapons into the ranged slot and throw them, and put bows into the main weapon slot and whack people with them.

EDIT: also what file do I copy over to transfer a character I'm lost send help

Wait, this is still Plus right?

[Seriyu]

Yeah, vanilla elona isn't getting support anymore. Go forth and hug.

. . . Sounds like something Argus would do to add insult to injury.

Am I the only one who occasionally uses debug races like bacteria and slime?

So I've been playing the past couple days; currently level 15. So far, I've managed to get 3 wishes from my pet using wells. Used them all on potions of evolution.

Spoiler: hells yes (click to show/hide)

+5 perception and cannibalism on the next page as well

For a total set of stats:

Not a bad start, all things considered.

I pretty much play it as a machinegun-toting variation of the battlemage.

Guns and magic go well together. I think I did that in the beginning with my best character too.

And since I've had to compare my characters to other peoples', I took a bunch of screenshots of related stuff. I'll leave it in a link since spoilers still load even if not opened, but I'll just leave the main page screenshot here.

Feats, equips, skills, and some other stuff here.

Not at all! In fact the bacteria race is a rather important thing in the "plot".

Small hint, for a warmage you probably want to go mostly light armor if you intend on actually using magic. Your total equips including weapon have to weigh under 15.0s for that. Medium isn't terrible. Definitely don't go into heavy armor, it gives a huge casting penalty. Also shields and dual weilding knock it down a little. Probably not too bad if you have casting at a decent level. Heavy armor is the biggest thing to note.

Also guns are always a great choice.

EDIT: SirAaronIII has revealed that heavy armor is a 20% penalty, it'll cap at 80% if yo uwear it. Medium is probably something closer to 5%,  Shields are 12%, and I think dual wielding was 7%? You definitely don't want to stack them but you could probably get away with one or two of them. Or just one if it's heavy armor or maybe shields.

[SirAaronIII]

That was just from literally a "okay let's grab all the heaviest looking stuff in my storage house and put it on and try to cast"-type test, aka not very thoroughly. But it should be good enough to give you the general idea that magic is hard with armor on.

Sad thing about magic and gunnery is that usually bullets+machine guns are enough to put you into medium armor weight.

[Patchy]

Here is a pic of my main char and her little girl. I've got a quite a few very nice artifacts accumulated over the course of my time playing that have been inherited down through my chars. Needless to say, I'm reasonably well decked out. I can post some more screenies of the other stat pages or various artifacts I have if wanted.

[etgfrog]

from the looks of it, patchy you have fun importing portraits and sprites into the game?

[Patchy]

Yeah, well mainly portraits. Simple as a google image search and then cropping and resizing the pic as needed. Sprite work is a bit tougher.

[Seriyu]

For people currently having issues with 1.20 (see: every new melee character, the new melee specials will basically one shot any low level character that can't keep their distance and kill them in a few hits), the devs have stated that they'll be removing it and moving it to south tyris, when people have more options to deal with the specials in 1.21. I dunno if they'll remain in the random activation form before then or not. Hold tight folks!

[Markus]

I love how the Blessed Crimson Bullet <Fabulous Chosen>+6 (2d3+1) (22) weighs more than a third over what the Blessed Crimson Machine Gun <the criminal>+6 (10d5+1) (54).

The rubynus bulletproof jacket weighs less than either of them.

[SirAaronIII]

Moongates are quite useful. Apparently you can break peoples' kitty banks and take the money inside without repercussion. Since these are usually really powerful peoples' homes, you can see some pretty ridiculous sums of cash just lying around for the taking, like so:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This one's on page 5, letter L on the moongate list, in case anyone wants in on that. This is pretty much cheating though so if you don't like being a filthy cheater like me then don't go there and pick up the money. Just wanted to point this out. Maybe it'll get patched or something.

Man, this saves so much time grinding quests over and over for money. But it'll never solve the issue of platinum.

[Leatra]

Grinding quests for money? I suppose you have never heard how much prostitution pays. Have fun and make money at the same time! It also levels up your CHA.

Really, with the wicked feat, a huge booze stockpile, and the animations turned off I make like 1m in 20 mins. I think I told about this moneymaking tactic like 5 times in this thread.

[SirAaronIII]

Some of us don't go for the wicked feat, don't keep blessed healing potions around for STDs, and also don't need the charisma. I think you can get plenty enough charisma from invest spam.
