Taran! About powerwords.

Eru Wrote:I'm not seeing the problem here.

It will basically turn the real "Kal Vas Flam" into "Kal Vas Flam [FlameStrike]"

Only Razor users can see the [Flame Strike] so it's not fair that only they can see the real power words.
  • While it's true that only Razor users will see [FlameStrike], they could already see the real power words by changing other peoples' text hue. Also, this is apparently possible in Injection.

No, what injection does is it that it turns ALL text info bright white, but that includes spells, whispers, text, anything, so you won't notice whats real and whats fake. The only thing that usually "works" is the text replaces, but that doesn't work here, you see the text as "Flamestrike" for example, but when somebody casts real spells it's completely blank.


Eru Wrote:Again, no difference from Razor. If someone casts a spell, then spams fake words of power, it will still get cleared off of the screen, even with the [FlameStrike] at the end.
You're missunderstanding what I ment. What I mean is when a REAL powerword is shown on the screen it stays there way longer, but when it is shown with a "say" (or the text replaces) then it spams away way faster. Best way to see what I mean is to try it for yourself.

Furthermore, another reason for the change is to get rid of power word spam, so it's counter intuitive to make a change to reduce WOP spam, then make modifications to the same change to let people keep spamming WOP.
You're failing to see my point again. I want the spam to be GONE completely, and if done properly players won't get any advantage at all out of spamming. The problem was that razor users got an advantage over injection users with the current change.

I spoke to Taran and suggestion an idea to stop players from using the same hue color for text and whisper as real spells are, that way its very easy to see which ones are real and which ones are fake, there by eliminating the need for fake spell spam, and he managed to script that so we don't need to discuss this anymore, I'm very happy with the result, but I just wanted to reply to your post to clearify that you missunderstod what I was saying Smile

Amazing! Can't wait for next update Smile
