Re: tread stealing

I have both a 39th ranger and a 34th illusionist. All I have to say is the illusionist is way crazy more powerful than the ranger. I can tank(displace/shade) and hit(attackspells) better than the ranger. I say upgrade melee as per Weylari's weapon dice suggestion and upgrade tanking or dg mage dama...

True, of course, but I'm primarily interested in what color people most commonly associate with twilight (assuming they have to pick, since some people invariably think of an actual twilight sky filled with all of the above).

The Color of Twilight

Ok, this is just to settle a personal argument I was having with someone regarding what the typical conception of twilight is. So please, if you have time, tell me what color/s you first think of when you think of twilight. _Pretty please_ answer before reading any responses/definitions/etc. Thanks!...

Ele's certainly don't need an upgrade, but the thread was in fact primarily about asthetics (ie mephits != elemental kin).

Summon Elemental Kin

Summon Elemental Kin currently summons any of a variety of pretty useless imps (mephits). Could we have it summon what might be somewhat more useful "actual" elemental kin instead? For air this would be a Sylph, for earth a Pech, for fire a Salamander, and for water a Nereid. Could we also make the ...
