My character is set up as a luck build to help me get pink floyde but I still managed to pwn the new forum without any consumables, It wasn’t even that close that I would have considered using one just in case.

Even if you boost the forums hit rate it could be a more chalanging forum, it hits me for 400+ and that is a decent damage but the problem is it rarely hits, I think it took 4 or 5 hits tops during my pwning of the thread, at 3 attacks to pwn a thread that gives them 2 attacks at me a thread and across about 8 threads that means its hitting 1 in 4 times.

Please give us folk in the end game a challenging forum.

I don’t care if its hard for other clbumes, the fact is I can do it with a troll that isn’t even set up for optimal pwning without using consumables, most end game troll will be in the same position, I would just like something challenging to do especially since I’m close to getting the pink floyde, once I have that and respec there will be nothing that will offer even a slight challenge.

The thing is…you’re a troll. The troll clbum is supposed to be like a tank. Maybe a little slow on offense, but harder than hell to kill. If you want more of a challenge, make an alt account.

... and THIS is why it’s misguided to try to balance each clbum’s damage output. Unbreakable defense plus ‘average, just like everybody else’ offense = unstoppable pwning machine.

You know, it’s going to be hard to make this game challenging without making it woefully grindy. I mean, short of making something impossible, essentially any problem in this game can be solved simply by having high enough stats and using enough consumables. Get your defense significantly high that you take less than 300 damage from getting hit, and use your most powerful available attack whenever the forum misses, healing otherwise. That’ll pwn pretty much any forum that you would ever have any hope of pwning. Making this take longer, or preventing more expeditions strategies isn’t going to make the game better.

I mean, it’s a satirical web RPG. Since when are those supposed to be hard?

This.

And to have their top attack hit for approx 100 base more than the other clbumes’ top attacks… EXTREME lack of balance.

since we’re all throwing out ideas, here is mine: instead of 1 forum built each 2 weeks, make them 2.

Exept the other ideas were relevant.

And your one is bad.

Actually, if you took 20 seconds to think about what I said, you would realise it is actually relevant to the main topic of this thread. The original poster wants a challenging forum, and since new forums aren’t always harder than the previous, by having 2 forums per 2 weeks instead of one, there will be a 2x chance of a more difficult forum to be created.

I thought about whether I should write a long explanation along with my idea, but then I thought, “nah, no one is that stupid not to undestand it”. But, guess what, it turns out you are this stupid person. Congratulations. Log in to see images! Benjamini edited this message on 12/08/2008 3:32PM

I’m sorry, (no that’s not it.) I regret to inform you, (still not right.) I have great pleasure in telling you, (that’s it) that you’re a moron.

It’s not too easy if 3/4 clbumes can hardly pwn it.

Well the solution is simple, nerf trolls and buff the other clbumes.

this all seems so overthought to me

My opinion on all of this is, although the game was much easier back there, all the clbumes were much more balanced before this stupid rebalancing. Everyone could 1-2 shot forums and everyone was happy.

The clbumes have different attributes and tweaks, you can’t balance something without making it too easy for someone.
