Saw these guys in a side-tent in the middle of the afternoon at Reading Festival yesterday: they were pretty great: >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb7nHmCf9q8

Not sure how practical it is, but it's a better idea than a lot I've seen here - I like it personally, but I doubt it'll be a 'priority item'

All the +1s for a fishing rod holder!

-1 to a blatant, "I want an easier FS grind" idea. Kudos for not even pretending the idea has any other merit though.

Many +1s for the OP. (Wouldn't mind losing the gender-specific titles either while we're here, but happy to focus as the OP does on actual mechanical impacts first)

We have a lot of different creatures, some rarer than others, some harder than others, some killable only in groups ... I can't really see the benefit in having more when there are so many other things the devs could be working on. If it's purely about high level FS grind: finding the 'best' greenish mobs is the way forward, in my humble experience, rather than spawning a bunch of new mobs just to make the grind easier. One day when the game is otherwise 'perfect' then more mobs might be interesting - but I don't see them as being at all needed.

A little over 30 years ago, still hard to beat... >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A22oy8dFjqc

I'm REALLY excited to hear what you have to say on this topic: I might be tempted to raise my Tracking if you have some firm evidence that it gets good at higher levels...

I'll honestly miss you, man. Thanks for all the songs and abuse >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjFmaKx9Lw4

It rubs the lotion into its skin.

I'd be surprised if many people hate you - although on the basis of this I'm willing to believe that those few who know who you are might. If you're not happy here, just go do something where you are - no need for attention-seeking dramas

That is good advice, and such bits of it as are relevant to me personally I will take on board. If I might offer some advice of my own: your points are undermined by your tone and needless insults. Moderate those and you might appear to be a more productive contributor.

There's a difference between not knowing it *could* be used as a weapon, which I did, and not knowing that the devs had deliberately rather than accidentally made it better than a lot of 'real' weapons, which I didn't and conceded that I didn't as soon as Sme pointed it out to me. That, in some people's view, is how a civilised and productive debate happens: people suggest ideas, other people present factual rebuttals and similar contributions, and everyone learns something. There's really no need for anyone to take any sort of confrontational tone when engaging in such a debate. It is clear that this is somewhat more intended, if no more explicable to me, than I had originally thought - as i already said above - so I expect we can all move on with their lives now

Excuse me? Of course I knew it could be used as a weapon, albeit a crude and not highly effective one compared to many others. However your insightful, polite, and well-reasoned contribution is highly valued and I thank you for it.

I just meant that things which are clearly weapons and have weapons skills associated with them seem frequently to be worse than something which is essentially a too. Maybe it isn't so much a design flaw as a bit of design that is just outstandingly strange to me

It isn't a weapon, it's a tool - that's why it's under Misc Items. That's why. The game has a wide variety of 'real' weapons which no one uses, yet this tool, because of a design 'flaw' is better than many of them in many situations. I don't think the world will end if this doesn't get done, I just wanted to raise it because it's a bit of a joke that a tool is better than so many weapons so much of the time. Maybe I should have led with "Buff carving knives" instead ... they are truly terrible weapons, even at 'high' skill.

Seriously it can't be intended that sickles are such a great weapon, can it? It's just silly.

I'll take 'em if they're still going. Drop me a line here or there.

...clearly... I'm asking Rolf to make the 100 Fletching title [Clearly Not Nerfed Yet]

4.0% for me, that's from the first week of Indy; there are older deeds on Chaos of course...

I'd gladly sell my first-born to get my hands on Aeris' stuff - yet her prices are very reasonable! ... bump ...

Seems really nice - just uploaded Berris, will add Puffincat at some point
