[Earthdforce]

You could update the jargon list..

You could update the jargon list..

I noticed that Panos is now Panos 

I'll add that to the list, as well as any others that i can think of. Anyone else thinking of terms, feel free to post them if they are commonly used.

I really should untick the box so my words are actually censored just to see how the forum changes :\.

List of what I can think of:


Kiting
Str
Agi
Admin

Will update when I can remember/think of more

[Tears of Destiny]

Will do a heavy rework again soon, addressing the new character page and a much larger list of very useful threads. If someone wants to compile a proper description of rageball that I can copy and paste (similar to my other described game modes) then I would be overjoyed and promise not to shitpost in any of your threads (think of how rare a treasure that is).

Do anyone remember who calculated the 'amount of reach added to weapon length due to animation' data?

Thank you.

[Angantyr]

Despite you writing it is a 'rough' estimate perhaps add the following to the 'amount of reach added to weapon length due to animation' section for clarification?

Data on 1h and 2h should be somewhat accurate, when I got to polearms I just wanted to get done faster so they may be off a cm or two.

And (in red),

Standard = Onehand overhead (+0)

1h
Overhead = +0
Left-to-right = +0
Right-to-left = +19
Thrust = +61

2h
Overhead = +15
Left-to-right = +17
Right-to-left = +13
Thrust = +80

2h Polearms
Overhead = -15
Left-to-right = -7
Right-to-left = -2
Thrust = +19

1h Polearms
Thrust = +50

*DISCLAIMER*
This test was done against a dummy, with modified weapon lenghts. Margin of error is probably around +/-3. For your information, testing this with no information about the reaches took a lot of time. If you want more accurate results you'll have to do it by yourself.

edit:
Or perhaps just update it with this one http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,25086.0.html

Hey Tears, if you could, add STF = Skip the Fun to the Common Abbreviations section of the Guide.  I remember seeing it for the first time, and having no clue.

And thanks... the guide is very helpful!

[Tears of Destiny]

Done!

[Ethgar]

Very helpful information.  Thank you for the time you put into this Tears.  Helps a bunch being new to the mod, and not the game.

An acronym being spouted in Battle(not directly at me): "dsl".
I decided to look it up on Urban Dictionary and all that taught me was that it stood for "d**k sucking lips". May I assume dsl is somewhat more game related?

[Xant]

Duck sucking lips? Dark sucking lips? Dork sucking lips? Deck sucking lips? Why use censorship and leave us guessing?!

Either a rather vague insult, or more then likely the above link.
