You do get something for reaching high stats. Get a high skill in smithing and you will transform into a \"Good Smither\" :D  Na seriously, I dont think we should transform into anything for...like killing 1000 monsters or something. We are just normal (dwarven, elven, yllian etc.) beings living in the Planeshift World.

Power-levelers would be gods.
Idiots, therefore would be gods.
Tu es bete, methinks.

Now if the devs chose certain persons to roleplay gods/very high up people for plot purposes, the idea would have some merit.

another thought is.. \"what would cause such a thing\" simply becoming good at something isn\'t going to pop you angel wings

Ha good point Serphet, I dont think Laanx or Talad would want to turn people into gods, assuming they are able, which brings up another question, how powerful are Laanx and Talad?

even if you would become a god the two major gods probably wouldnt like a new opponent seeing as they already have one so you would probably be blasted into oblivion six seconds after you would become a god

Eek how I hate characters with \'the god complex\', usually its the only complex thing about the characters.

I think two gods are enough, we have the good (Talad) and the bad and ugly (Laanx).

Roleplaying a god without the stats to back it up is actually roleplaying an insane character who thinks of themselves as deity.

I wouldn\'t make the blanket statement that Talad is good and that Laanx is bad and ugly - they are both supposed to be complex characters from what I understand of the background story.

I would say roleplaying an insane character is a bit different to someone turning \'lvl 100\' or whatever and being made a god. I don\'t have a problem with a person roleplaying insanity, though I doubt I\'d see it successfully roleplayed (believable).

Ok I didn\'t add j/k after that last tongue in cheek comment.

However how is it a blanket comment? from what I\'ve read and there isn\'t much to go on... Talad while no doubt complex seems a little naive, a nice young god. He wants to share with Laanx, he feels badly over his mistake he shows compasion, and it seems he doesn\'t impose his will on his people (he reacts to laanx\'s temple but that is still reactionary).

Look at Laanx on the otherhand, changed in every respect female to male, beautiful to deformity, innocence to something other. Her/his/its deformity is more then skin deep though, it is changed... darker in nature, brooding and plotting. Once like Talad she/he/it now plots revenge and will take the people for itself.

I think if instead of simply reaching a certain level and suddenly transforming into a god, players should be able to grant praying spells to other players.

1. players can pray to you.

2. they cast the granted spells.

3. the spells they cast drain your mana and in exchange, you get 10% exp from the enemys they kill using these spells.

This way you are only a god in the sense that you are prayed to for help and it doesn,t matter what level you are.
