Hey whats up with this stuff?

[Kixie]

Hey i couldnt think of a better place to put this in... im a little slow... (please dont hurt me....) but anyway im wonderin, so im makin a new character to check out what all i can do and all the stuff i can moderate and modify and i see near the end of creatin my character and i have a couple of questions.
just let me talk for a sec and ill ask you guys questions for the wish list

1. how soon tria be introduced to the game? are we lookin next up date or about finished game time? i saw the rich and richer skills and im like wonderin will i get those bonuses when the update comes or will i have to start a new character? How does everyone feel about this? should we have to start a new character?

2.  i saw the disadvantages for spells and it said it will give me a malus. Maybe someone could explain malus better because that can mean 2 things, either someone hits me with one of these spells and i die almost instantly or does it mean i cant cast them as good. if its the 2nd one which i suspect doesnt this give an unfair advantage to people who dont use spells at all? they can have like all these points to use

3. Since I cant see my character\'s skills at the moment when i create a character how much of a bonus do i get with the strength/endurace/agility/etc. bonus? How much is decreased with the disadvantages? What do you players think? What is the limit on these bonuses/penalties? should they be implimented at all? i mean if someone wants good combat all they have to do is put some disadvantages one their spells/will/intelligence/charisma and they can put advantages in stuff like strength/endurance and stone skin?

but the most important question i have is with the looming  
sweep of weapons and crystals will you just make us start a new account? this would be somewhat of a good idea because some of us just made a character and didnt know what we were doing.

Well thats all i can think of. sorry if this is in the wrong place but i mean this is where you character\'s can speak up and stick it to the man about unfair advantages and disadvantages when creating a character!

                                                                    love,
                                                                           Kixie

interesting thought kixie well I think the limit of the advantage disadvantage thingy should depend on the player.  Like if its me BIG advantage no disadvantage....k serious now I think maybe 5 pts or 6 at most

1. tria, hexa, octa ect. should be introduced in the next release cystal blue (CB), which is said to come out in a few months ...this year supposedly

2. don\'t worry about the advantages/disadvantages (including rich/poor) at the moment, because the skill system isn\'t fully integrated yet ...again CB along with trading and fighting ...but i think the idea is that you have the advantage/disadvatage number on 0 at the end ...no idea what happens if not ...since it\'s not fully implemented yet

3. it\'s a skill-based system, so i don\'t know how heavily the stats will get affected ...i mean, you already diced and sorted the stats, before the adv./disadv. menu comes.

and, yes, as far as i know, they\'ll remove the whole character database ...but i think they said we\'ll be able to \"register\"/secure our character names, so they\'ll reserve them for you.
