FAQ: FAQ Discussion & Submissions

[JaghataiKhan]

JaghataiKhan, the permanence of curse and horrormark is emphasized in the FAQ to discourage threads about how to remove curses and horrormarks. It has been asked time and again of the developers that a method of removal be added, and it has been refused just as many times. Illwinter has made this game the way they want it to be, and on certain issues they are not going to compromise on it. I do not claim to know all of the reasoning behind it.

I also like the permanence of curse and horror marks, BUT a wish spell must be able to remove them for reading its description it is obvious it must be able to remove it.

After all, if one's desperate to cast wish to remove it, it should be removed after all.

Just because Illwinter wants it a midget cannot trample an elephant. There is gaming ethics and all the [censored].

Personally, I don't see any reason for Wish not being able to remove curse and/or horror mark, but there are many, many things Wish "should" do that it doesn't.

Conversely, just because JaghataiKhan wants it a midget cannot trample an elephant. There is gameing ethics and all the [censored].

Did he really say that, or...

Anyways, if you you have wish, you might be better off wishing for a way to continually remove the extra wounds you get from the curse- it gives a longer lasting benefit and return, when you can just get recursed. Curse, by itself, doesn't do any harm, its only in combination with combat that's a threat. A Mother of Serpents, various units & artifacts are available to help with the affects.

I recognize Horror Marking may be a different story- but I haven't formed any opinion on that. Aside from the fact the affects are much more significant. So I won't comment on that.

I will make a suggestion - insufficient for mp, but a halfway measure for sp - mod horror marking out of the game. That's up to you, though. I haven't been keeping my Pretenders alive long enough to worry about Horror Marks.

I would like to make a suggestion with regards to the FAQ- include your signature, Edi. That way, I can quickly point someone towards the database. Or just insert a link.

[Edi]

Good suggestion. I need to add the disbanding stuff and the research cost table for different difficulty levels, so I might as well include the DB links too.

[Edi]

FAQ updated.

Added a section on the Dom3 DB as per previous suggestion since it gets tiresome to explain it all the time. Now any queries about the DB can be answered with "FAQ".

Also added research cost chart to the very end and reorganized the ODD & ENDS section better so that it is split to CASTLES and the true miscellaneous stuff.

Thanks for adding the research charts!
