- Shapeshift spell mana cost reduced. - Many shifter edges now have a prerequisite of 80% shapeshift. - Leverage improved a tiny bit more; I would use this skill without hesitation as a large staff/spear spec and would use it situationally for other staff/spear specs. - Poison Darts scales up to higher levels a bit better. - Bramble Pit damage increased significantly, again. - Bear Kinship bears are higher level and significantly more durable. - Shattering Note (Piercing Dissonance edge) improved. - Tsunami damage increased. Note that tsunami can deal some damage to drowning-immune targets. (This has been true for years but I don't know if anyone ever noticed.) - Chill Touch and Lightning Bolt deal more damage than before at higher levels. - Wheel Kick is faster if you know Mountain Storm Kick. - Side Kick blocks one attack if successful (like feint/cross). Having Double Spin Kick improves it a little more. - Scissor Kick is a little faster, works a little more, and lets the assassin take one extra attack the following round if successful. Having Rising Phoenix Kick improves it a little more. Probably it's still not good enough to use past the teens but it's a start. - Flyto with a sub-tier-1 form lags the shifter less than before. - You can't gate or flyto a player who doesn't trust you the first five minutes you're logged in. - The shifter "fly" skill now is based on form skill rather than working 100% of the time. Malediction can impact it but even in the worst conditions its success rate remains very high, just not 100%. - Flaming Arrow improved. - Poison Arrow improved. - Aerial Shot improved. - Timed Attack helpfile updated to better explain what it does. Also, Timed Attack is quicker at lower Observe thresholds. - Timed Attack (Staff variant) now provides an echo to the room when it prevents casting etc. - Characters whose carried weight exceeds their current max carry move around marginally more slowly than other characters and spend additional movement to do so. This effect is slightly more pronounced on characters with low base Strength. - We have started to track additional cabal raid stats based on the level of opposition you face in both raids and retrievals. This most likely will feed into edge at some point but does not yet. - There is now a minimum level on exploration spots. For most areas, this level is 11. For some very lowbie areas, it's lower. For some high level areas, it's higher. The guy who begs any hero who will listen to drag him through high-end explore areas with each of his lowbies can maybe get some dignity back going forward. - Teleport now correctly respects area-writer-set room flags that restrict teleport. This means you can now teleport into some places you couldn't before, and can't teleport into some places you could before. - Each piece of rigid armor (materials such as metal, stone, bone, wood, glass, etc.) worn reduces the success rate of malleability slightly. - Conditions that make sneaking impossible (e.g. Faerie Fire) cut the success rate of Gentle Walk significantly. - Lifebind and Luminous Assault can be used in combat. - Luminous Assault is more powerful, but has a short reuse timer.

This is confusing. You can't use gentle walk at all while glowing. Unless this has changed very recently...?

Could you add the assassin kick details to their help files? Because I at least am bound to forget what additional effects they have. Oh and if you haven't already, this also goes for other skills that you've tweaked in a way that should be in their help files (I only looked at the kicks). Thanks!

- A suggestion on how to include the info Daev gave on the assassin kick improvements below, actual help files + the additions in bold (the RSK bit could use some info on how it affects scissor kick, makes it faster?):
WHEELKICK SWEEPKICK SIDEKICK 'WHEEL KICK' 'SWEEP KICK' 'SIDE KICK' (729)
syntax: wheelkick sweepkick sidekick
The basic kicking forms involve the primary leg being parallel to the ground. The motion can be circular in the case of the wheel kicks and sweepkicks, or direct as with the side kick. The art of kicking requires years of study. As you progress in your studies, new techniques will become available to you.
The most basic kick assassins will learn is the wheel kick. Once this is mastered, the sweep kick can then be attempted. This brutal kick to the outside thigh of the victim is especially punishing when continued throughout the fight. The final kick in this series is the side kick. Using a short hop for momentum, the leg is cocked across the body like a tensed spring before being released as the hop brings the assassin into range. When successful, the side kick blocks one attack against the assassin.
To practice these at your guild, you must enter the full name of the kick you want to learn, surrounded by quotes -- e.g.: practice "sweep kick"
--- SCISSORKICK MULEKICK 'SCISSOR KICK' 'MULE KICK' (733)
syntax: scissorkick mulekick <target>
The two exotic kicks, scissor and mule, are the assassin's first entrance into the intermediate ranks. Both require the stamina and confidence that comes from reaching this rank. The scissor kick allows the assassin to bring their opponent to the ground using their legs coupled with gravity. With the legs wrapped around the body of the victim, the assassin twists as they fall, bringing the victim down. This allows the assassin to take one extra attack against the victim. The mule kick is against opponents that are fighting the assassin, but are not being directly attacked in return. By careful positioning, the assassin is able to kick backwards in a surprise attack against the person behind them.
--- CRESCENTKICK AXEKICK MOUNTAINSTORMKICK 'CRESCENT KICK' 'AXE KICK' 'MOUNTAIN STORM KICK' (736)
Syntax: crescentkick axekick mountainstormkick
The next plateau for kicking lies in the crescent motion of the leg perpendicular to the ground. The basic crescent calls for the foot to be brought from the inside across the victim. When successful it can slash through their defenses and disarm the victim.
The axe kick follows the first part of the crescent motion, but rather than complete to the outside, the foot is instead dropped straight down on the shoulder of the victim. Victims too large cannot be successfully axe kicked, so the normal crescent kick must suffice.
The completion of this stage is the mountain storm kick. The crescent motion is joined with a short jump. The result adds power to an already powerful strike. Also, knowledge of the mountain storm kick improves the basic wheel kick, making it faster to execute.
See also: ASSASSIN
--- DOUBLESPINKICK 'DOUBLE SPIN KICK' (742)
syntax: doublespinkick
The double spin kick is one of the most advanced kicks, and should only be attempted by assassins of high rank. The spin direction can either be either inside to outside, or vice versa. The success of the second kick is virtually guaranteed if the first one is landed.
--- RISINGPHOENIXKICK 'RISING PHOENIX KICK' (743)
syntax: risingphoenixkick
Mimicing the fiery phoenix rising from the ashes, the assassin facing multiple foes begins a series of leaps. Similar to the mountain storm kick, the assassin performs the rising crescent kick, but as time and study have allowed, the leap is much more controlled. As a result, each opponent fighting the assassin will be targetted with this kick. Also, knowledge of the rising phoenix kick improves the scissor kick.

See below log. After languid carol, wither and laborious lament, it takes 8 tries to be able to fly. You wrote "even in the worst conditions its success rate remains very high, just not 100%" however this doesn't seem to be a very high success rate.

The code looks correct to me at a second read, and I couldn't reproduce this at all when I tried the other night.
I've added some logging to make sure it's working correctly. If it's not I'll adjust it.

#82, "My experience thus far"
In response to Reply #12

Here are some of my recent observations on the fly changes. I don't think these are very biased but who knows, it might be. Still, I've definitely noticed them.
1) About 75% success flying when there is the presence of any malediction.
2) Fly rate seems to go down right after engaging in PvP, regardless of whether there are maledictions present or not.
3) Fly rate seems to be affected by maledictions that don't actually influence strength or dexterity, like bleeding, iceneedles (the -hp part).
4) At seemingly random times, I will get the 'You cannot fly to an enemy so soon.' echo, even though both I and the enemy have been logged in for a while, and neither one of us has died recently. I'd be able to flyto an enemy, see them from the sky, then a few ticks later, find them again, still see them from the sky, but unable to fly to them.
5) Failing to fly saps movement as though it were a successful fly. This means, at most, after several attempts, whether successful or not, I'm forced to land and rest for movement. Is it possible to remove or lower the movement cost of a failed fly?
6) The uncertainty of flying now makes using it to escape battle far more difficult than before, and the movement reduction on a failed fly makes it ultimately too risky to use in PK.
My expectations for this change were that sometimes during battle flying away and chasing could be hindered, but with the percentages where they're at now it's more likely that every battle will have an issue, whether it's failing to fly up initially to scout (moves being reduced to 50% sometimes before even in the air), fleeing from battle (failing to fly at this stage is very dangerous as movement is already low to begin with), or trying to chase from area to area.

I have returned to CF just because of the Hunter changes you have implemented. Rolling up a character soon. Thank you for finally making them (hopefully) a competitive class.

Does an in-form shifter suffer from str loss dropping their carried weight below what it would normally be? How does this change affect shifters in form?

#60, "hunter skills"
In response to Reply #0

could you look into hunter skills too?
poisonarrow and flamingarrow both seem to land the added effect so rarely. not only that but I've noticed where the skills actually tend to make the attack 'miss' quite frequently (when the non-effect melee round never misses)
timed attack is still so predictable, slow, and not worthy of a level 44 skill
aimedshot effects are weak
bait would be functional if it also lagged the opponent or did something more
i just realized this wasn't your gameplay thead, sorry about that.

Since last I played one:
You can imbue bows now, not sure what if anything they prog. Though there was a log a good while back of someone's bow progging for three free attacks. Unsure if that is imbue bow, an NPC bow, or something else altogether.
Rapid shot gives chance for third attack with bows.
Timed attack isn't as obvious when you use it.
