Hello, I'm that guy.


1. Druid lacks a very-low cooldown healing skill like the other two healers, is this intentional? Unless it's meant to be more of a hybrid DPS with healer/CC skills.

2. Are the same status effects unique to the player or can it be overwritten? Eg: can a monster receive a Poison debuff from multiple players at once or does only one type of poison apply at the same time no matter how many poison skills are used?

3. Do affected targets gain any status effect resistances? If I were to theoretically get 6 Monks to repeatedly Grizzly Dash a monster, would the monster be stunlocked?

4. If I theoretically had 3 Bards in a different Tempo and they use the same music skill, do I receive all 3 buffs or an enemy receives all 3 debuffs?

5. If I use an out-of-combat support skill like Triage on someone, will it continue to work when they enter combat? 

6. Does Overload's mana uncapping affect a Sorcerer's Aetherial Desperation? If multiple people use it on the same person, do targeted buffs like Overload stack its effects / reset the timer for the buff?

7. The Advertisement forum seems locked to members only, whereas guest posting seems to be the norm especially when you start recruiting.

8. Talents feel a bit off in terms of how efficient it would be to forego leveling a main class. It seems that you're dedicating 100 EXP from leveling a talent to gain a single skill each time, which weights the talent skill equivalent to a Rank 3 main skill and 30 AP... but some roleplay talents don't really seem to have skills that make it too exciting. I feel I'd only feel incentized to level a roleplay talent if it gives me certain passive modifiers to compensate for not having AP/SP, if I could keep some of its skills after changing talents, or if the skills were as busted as what Sigilmaker's skills look like.

1. If you read the Druid’s class description on the Class List, you'll find that it states the following: "Unlike the Cleric, the Druid is a more versatile class with a balanced repertoire of healing, offensive, disabling and buffing spells. A Druid's heals are primarily regeneration spells which grant healing over a length of time, and as such are capable of producing the most powerful healing per second by stacking several of their spells on a single ally. They have a veritable toolbox of spells, able to cripple enemies, deal powerful Nature damage, shield allies and even summon treants to do their bidding. A Druid must learn to plan ahead, or unforeseen attacks may burst allies down before they are healed." Yes, Druid skills having longer cooldowns is intentional as their heals are effective over time instead of healing their target in an instant burst.

2. Multiple status effects stack if they are quantifiable.

3. They gain no resistance, so yes, theoretically you could stun lock a foe using that method.

4. Yes, all three bard's effects take place one way or another.

5. Your example of triage has a 40s animation time, presumably during this time you would be performing said Triage upon the wounded character. If combat occurs, either you continue the care and leave yourself unguarded or you end it. So in conclusion, it might change from case to case. In general, however, unless the skill states that it is cancelled by entering combat, it will last as long as its duration lasts or until it is cancelled manually by its user.

6. Overload does not instantly grant a higher mana cap but rather slowly grant it as mana is gained, since Sorcerer's AD is dependent on being below 60% it's unlikely they would be experienced at once. However, should a Sorcerer be buffed with Overload and gain its full effect, yes, the threshold for their AD would be larger than it would without Overload.
Multiple instances of skills usually stack if their effects are quantifiable.

7. The Advertisement board isn’t locked, there just aren’t any posts on it yet. This is mostly due to us just handling it on the Discord instead.

8. Not a bad point, and one that is being discussed by the staff. I will note however that Sigilmaker is not nearly as broken as you seem to imply. Also, please be aware that talents do grant bonuses in-universe aside from their skills, such as a level 30 Courtesan being much more persuasive and charismatic than a level 1 Courtesan, even without using skills granted to them by their talent.

We appreciate the input and questions. Question 8 especially is now the subject of some serious discourse, so thank you.
