Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

I vote for llamabeasts end game diversity mod to become as standard as CBM.

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

has it been playtested enough for that yet? I like the idea in theory, but I think the mod is a bit new for that still, no?

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

Yeah it needs more testing. Being an endgame mod, it hasn't seen much actual MP yet.

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

Yes, it has to be play tested more. But I predict more and more games will start up using the mod, until it is used as much CBM.

I for one would prefer to sign up for games that use it right now, as opposed to those that do not.

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

I am making it a mission to make more small (6 players or less) games for people with easy to use mod bundles and maps included. The mod bundles will all have endgame diversity in.

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

The endgame mod looks great so far.I think this is the right direction to balance Tarts.I predict most new games will use CBM +endgame mod as a standard pretty soon.

@ Micah

Just want to tell you, that i plan to start another attack on your snake record pretty soon:D

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

Now why would you want to go and do that Mardagg? Do you have any idea how cranky Micah becomes when he's not Snake Champ?

And it's the decent, innocent folks on the IRC who will suffer the consequences of it. As they will be left fighting a losing battle to control and calm the inevitable rages Micah always suffers from during those brief intervals that he isn't the Snake Champ.

So for the sake of the world, please reconsider your imminent course of action :yield:

What is a snake champ?

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

30d for tarts is still cheap. Its 100s for most other viable competitors, and those need GoR 100% of the time, not 80%.

30d is still cheaper than national options like Dai Oni, Rudra, and so forth.

Basically, they are far too cheap right now, excluding other options from consideration.

Re: Fixing up Tartarians ?
 

But it's not 30D for Tarts. (Or even 10 or 15 or whatever it is in the latest CBM.)

It's that for a chance at a usable Tart. It's a really good deal if you've got the Chalice or GoH, but if you don't, most of them are afflicted even if they're not feebleminded. And of those that aren't feebleminded, a good chunk don't have the slots to be SC material or wind up with poor paths for it.

And it's a significant investment for most nations to get mages high enough to cast it. You'll need several casters since you'll need a bunch to get useful ones.

All those other options: You cast them, you get a good SC. Guaranteed. With Wish, you can even pick the one you want. Tartarian Gate is a gamble.
I don't think I'd pay 30D for one shot at a good Tartarian, unless I had the Chalice or GoH.
