Hi:

  • MVP exchanger will be updated

Does this mean the current MVP drops wont be useful anymore? Or you will add more MVP drops to the current list.

The "Event WoEs" Are just normal WoEs with no rewards right? Nothing fancy like disabled skills or babies only?

Probably not. I assume If you silence someone mid cast it still goes off (for recall) - since this is the case with freezing a recaller midway or incapacitating them in any other way. Will you ban us for testing it? 

 

It will be nice to watch monks attempting to snap back out of portals tho.  I always hated that crap. 

 

@morlord: Just portal cloak/portal hide. It shouldn't change your status when you cross the portal because you're casting it before you enter. Sins suck so much anyway, may as well accept making them suck even more.

If a character starts casting before they enter the portal the cast doesn't go off and gets interrupted. They have to start the cast at the exact same time they get moved. By doing a silence and then waiting 1/20th a second before a character goes through it will prevent the character from starting the cast in the middle of the move.

Biolabs 3 will be available

 Yea make sure you disable ICE WALL on the map before you implement the map. We don't need people getting free MVP loot over bugging monsters.

To fix portal recalling or any portal skill, make it so that the instant you go through a portal the character is "spell broken". Silence does nothing, spell break will do something.

 

Edit: Also, side note- Can you make recall usable with free walk (sage skill)??? Please and thank you!

The problem is order of operations. Since the recall has to happen RIGHT AT the moment of teleport to properly go through the portal spell break can't happen at the same time.

What about reducing portal immunity to 4 seconds or 4.5 seconds? Is that possible? The cast time for recall wont begin until they hit the portal and it has a 5 second cast, so portal immunity being shrunk until 4 seconds could be enough to break it. 

 

Or if standing on tile (xxx, yyy) for more then 3 seconds cast spell break on them. Have those tiles be on either side of the portals (the tile you land on after walking through a portal).

 

Or do nothing, because option A would probably cause a lot of people to cry, option B would be a nightmare to implement and probably full of bugs, and option C (do nothing) makes the most sense since portal recall has been around forever.
