Recent events? Pally/Bg saves has nthing to do with Shifter.

Recent events meaning Disco not being there for a month or so. Will that delay the changes?

Terra and Belgian are heading that, so ideally? No. I'm not entirely 100% sure though. The answer is a solid "Probably".

Disco had some input on the wyrmling shapes.
I'm not sure however if he already finished the scripting for the abilities or not.

Easy enough to put a temporary script in place and update it with the Disco ones later on.

Don't know if he's needed for new content or if Terra can do the whole thing without Disco help (updating server etc)

No worries, was just wondering.

*Fingers-crossed for an awesome Christmas present!*

No, he can't. See you in '10.

I know this is late... but OMG!!!! YAY!!!! WOOO!!!!

Seeing as I have always loved Shifters, and my first character was a shifter I am extremely happy to see this right now.

I wonder, have the changes to the caster level scripting been implemented yet? Someone mind saving me a read through 6 pages?

Should probably be added to the original post imo. Thanks. <3

I'm definitely looking forward to the changes.

Bodes well for my shifter (who is very fun to RP ^^).

I have been away for many moons... I played the shifter straight through the Bioware suck for all the stupid fun the forms have been. Prolly been killed about 9000 times but Nym the shifter is still my main.

After a week of tooling around getting another level and meeting some new people I wander into the forums to find THIS POST. While I am bummed out I won't be leveling with the forms for much longer the prospect of actually being able to use all the forms to great effect is beyond fantastic. Can't say enough how much I love this server. I'm even more happy I went with the RP build now.

I am most grateful to see the wyrmling buff as it is my "traveling and hanging out" form. Frankly the only thing I would like to see with dragon forms are just more options. You wouldn't have to change a thing save somehow let us pick another color or reskin the options. Lame and small but a true RP request.

Thanks ever so much guys! Keep up the great work! I can't wait to see it!

Cheers,
Nym

I just wanna see dragonshape's breath damage improvedup to the shapechange version

Dunno about dragon shape's offhand. I'll be honest, none of us were too thrilled about tooling that shape up or down, it's fantastic as it is.

Wyrmling rbeath is certainly better though.

The shapechange variety's breath shouldnt be better than dragonshape's version at least IMO. Thats all im alluding to *shrugs*. 30 wisdom base vs level 9 spell which is available from a scroll...

It's because of the breath property they used vs. the shifter's scaling.

You don't have to change a thing on the dragon shapes as far as I am concerned. The only thing I would like when it comes to dragon types is more choices than the three. Even if it was only a skin that would make it a great deal of fun.

Alright, i'll conceed. Is there any chance of it being changed so it scales accordingly? Its just with a base 30 wisdom requirement it should IMO be better than the shapechange variant in all respects.

To add additional shapes to the feats themselves may require haks. Last I remember, they were only tweaking the .2da files.

If you want a delayed skin changer, pay the 25 DCs. Others have before you, its not a new concept.

why 25? a regular skin change is 10

Yes but a a widget that allows you to toggle the skin on and off costs 25.

No, it's not. It's 25. And a delayed one will run you 35, because it needs tobe scripted uniquely.

any for when this changes might be happening or is Disco still gone?

We're still getting some bugs out of the system actually.

Untill that is done even Disco will have to wait.

anyhow i guess no date is set yet then

then we have to wait sadly us shifters

Trust me, you will know when the shifter stuff goes in.

Everyone will be gifted with a one day only Chuck Norris form.

No, but as a shifter, you may certainly feel like the Mighty Chuck himself.

any chance of the ugly wyrmling forms being replaced by uberly downscaled adult skins? or at least for whichever ones would be slightly larger at a wyrmling stage

Hoo.. Nice idea.

Nyet, sorry. That is actually what wyrmlings look like.

No way... I love the little wyrm form. Just flappin and chilling out flying all over the place. They have often been my travel form. I wish they would get a speed boost as well, perhaps when they hit epic form? Just a random idea.

They already have Bioware TS, doesn't need any more help.

No speed boost.

The title of this topic is misleading :lol:

No it's not. Talk to Belgian and Terra. It's their problem at this point. I bugtested and went through all their stuff.

I've heard that term before "Bioware True Seeing". I have heard different responses as to what it means. It means see-every-stupid-thing right? Like even stealth? Or am I wrong about that?

Yes, it means the property "True Sight" which sees everything regardless of invisibility, hiding, or GS.

Late game super surprise:

Shifters will get access to Elemental and Wildshape forms as they level up. Their strength will be the same as the Druid's.

It's in the HAK.

Old shifters will prolly need to get Leto'd or a free rebuild should fix it too if you got a spare one.

Will that be retroactive? I'm not sure how leto'ing / free rebuilds go on this server.

Reading through the forums after a 6 month break or so ... Wow, shifter changes! Who would have thunk!

Awesome! Now back to RL ...

Can anyone give a dummy version of what a LETO script is?

Terra! Send me the 2da or test it yourself!

Hi. I'm currently trying to play my old shifter/druid character and I was wondering if there is any news on when the new changes will be made?
Also will I need to recreate the character in order to take advantage of the changes?

Done when it's done.... and no, you won't need to rebuild.

A Shifter is never late.
