Re: mosehansen Faerun, again.!
 

I know *everything* Jurri, that much is obvious. If I don't know it, then it isn't relevant. Oh wait, I was killed, so I ought to set arrogance aside.

This mechanism about Vastnesses/Greater Othernesses has been mentioned several times on the forum, and I have tried it myself. I think one of my mages had a summoning skill of 130 or some such, and only summoned two Vastnesses; an horde of Greater Othernesses had been summoned as well.

The figures for "when you can hope to summon a Vastness" are approximations however: level 13 is the earliest I got one (it could have been level 12 though), and I didn't get any Vastness after level 20. Level 17 is my own guess for when you are most likely to get a Vastness, as witnessed in my own experiments; level 18 is another figure given for this, but I do not believe there has been any official word on this.

Wait, even I should have known that much. That you know everything, I mean.

It must be a year since I last played R'lyeh so I'll accept your theory. Would that mean that it would be actually best to alternate summoners in the void? As in, keep a dude there no longer than until he's ~20 in skill and then change to another. Since the vastnesses really are great.

Re: mosehansen Faerun, again.!
 

You might be able to get Vastnesses after summoning 20, but there's a "might" here (I think it might be possible to get them a few levels after 20, but they will completely disappear afterwards).

This part was actually confirmed by one of the developpers if memory serves, though they only said the odd of getting a Vastness decreased as summoning level increased, and not that it was impossible to get them past a certain threshold.

But yes, if you do want Vastnesses, you should switch your summoners after level 20 or so; then again, Greater Othernesses aren't the worst thing in the world either. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: mosehansen Faerun, again.!
 

That sure is a good thing to know, thanks Alneyan! A Greater Otherness is like an Earth Elemental to me, and Vastness like a Horror. So it isn't too tough a decision... Although quantity has its own virtue.

Re: mosehansen Faerun, again.!
 

cool thanks for the info and pity i thought at high levels you would get really weird stuff
and curses i forgot your own domes stop your own magic as well.

So how are you fine folks enjoying the Wrath of the True God so far? Looks like at least Soapy is finally on the move towards some action, so I guess at the least he is pissed off http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

You want a house dropped on your AQ or what? I'll see if I can't arrange that...

Too bad rex stole my scythe, it would have been so poetic to cut the reed with it.
