As far as I know it is not 10% more speed. The weight penalty of the rider on the horse is reduced by 10% so in effect the horse is faster then it would have been without the 10% reduction

Please add the Cast Power in the success message in the log. [14:28:17] You succeed in improving the power of the Aura of Shared Pain from xx to yy. It is probably a 5 minute job for a dev because all the extra info should be at hand when the message is generated. It will help us to get some great starts of the casting process.

You were very brave

Kadmint is correct but if there is enchants on the lumps you cannot store them in a BsB/Crate. I use a Magical Chest to store my enchanted lumps

what about we have both system. The resource nodes just yield more or different items that can't be obtained from normal forage/Botanizing

I was working in an area where 2 toons were crafting and I realize how much it annoys me that I need to search for my own toons events in between all the spam in my event tab. What about a setting to just see your own events or even better split it in 2 event tabs. Like a Global events and personal events. Edit: after some discussions I think 2 tabs will be better. At impalongs & unique slaying you want to see your own events but also not miss important anouncements

While I was reading this I thought why not having a Sailing skill. the higher the skill the better speed bonus it gives. So people that sails a lot gets rewarded for it.

I am fully aware it is not balanced for 1 person to build them all, but your point does not translate into reality where very few people actually attend rifts and a lot less actually help building the colossi. if the rift is on a week evening some people will go there the day before so that they are on site for the rift. So even if they made the effort to go early they can't really help building because of rift sickness is so severe. By extending the 12h build period to 24h more people would have the opportunity to get something out of the rift. Specially for working people during the week when the rift is in the early morning of a work day. The current system seems to "punish" the few that is there because the rest of the server could not make it or just not interested in building. On Xanadu how often were al 4 colossi built? I could not make the last Xanada rift because of RL issues but I was told only 2 were build and the 2nd one was barely done before the rift started. I did help building the Fo colossus until it was time for me to go. It was myself, Ekcin and one other that was there a day early and started the work on the Fo one. There were less than 10 people at the actual rift. Many want to be summoned in shot time before the rift and just do the fighting. Anyway, I think I said enough to state my case.

With the small amount of people participating in rifts it is hardly possible to build 4 colossus in the 12 hrs. With the current state how quick rift sickness kicks in and how severe it is it is a waste of time and mats to even go there early and try and build even one colossus. You can't even add 50 mats before you need to take a break to get rift of the rift sickness. Think about it. To build all 4 colossi you need to add 8k mats. so in 12 hrs you need to add the 8k mats. that is roughly 11 per minute working non stop( that does not factor in the high failure rate) and after that you still need to do the actual rift that could also last a few hours. Specially if the rift is during the week and/or very late at night it is just not possible for players to spend that much time without taking a break. If you have 4 people getting there early to try and build the colossi it is a lot specially on a large server like Xanadu. In reality it is max 2 maybe 3. Then each of the 4 people spend 6 hours working it still about 6 mats per minute per person again excluding failures. I wonder what numbers the Devs used to estimate that 12 hours is enough to build 4 colossi and if the current numbers of people that participate in rifts was even considered.

To add to Ekcin, I think the Rift Sickness hits to quick and to severe.

Great idea

and on top of what Ekcin say is that no consultation happened with the people that lives in the areas you crossing. The fact that something is not deeded and beamed up does not mean it is not being used actively. Yes, I know it is not against the rules but it is very rude to mess around with other players area. An that with something that is totally not needed in our area. There is other less intrusive ways to extend the highway system without negatively interfering in other players neighborhoods.

My prediction is you will run into many enforced mines/tunnel on your way North. I personally don't like the idea and would like to know the route you are taking. So that you don't break existing tunnels etc
