#51534, "Would love to see a diff thread."
Edited on Tue 17-Sep-13 02:23 PM
|
I'd love to see a diff thread that's purely game mechanics questions. IE, ask me about any skill/class ability that you don't fully understand and we'll tell you how it works.
Smear mud I think in this thread was a great example about a skill that's been in the game for 8? years that people haven't figured out yet..so it's probably the only way for this information to make it to the light of day.
I guess to me...the line I'd draw in terms of secrecy would be along the lines of "content can have secrets, skills should be an open book (at least if you have the skill)". So for instance, areas explore, quests, item knowledge, mob knowledge, these are great 'secrets'. But if I don't know whether or not nerve->knee hurts their dodge more than the -2 dex? That's tedious, how do I even go about testing that realistically without an OOC training buddy and a spreadsheet?
