dst Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I found the tag I had while using an illusion on the tags page. Everything gained while in illusions should reset once you exit. So...bug? Or feature? Kyphis the Bard, Sasha Lilias and lashtal 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myth Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) I have a curiosity about that specific illusion. I know you don't role play, but if you did... and if you were part of a land which was at war with GG... and if you used that illusion... what would be the outcome? :P edit 1: more exactly, who's in control? the illusion, or the illusionist? edit 2: PM if spoiler-ish, please.

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted December 17, 2014 Root Admin Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 i am also not certain if this should be feature or not..... i'll observe this discussion for now. Tag value will be determined by how much time you spent keeping it active, and there will also be other ways to increase its score...so question is..should someone that had such a tag, hard enough to get, be granted a chance to turn it into a role or not...at least thats how i see it for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelis Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 From that perspective, if you increase the score of land-related illusion tags, you'd somehow be granted a chance to turn it into a role and be part of that land, even if you have never had any contact/history related to that particular land before. Is that correct? If so, is that intended for the tag feature? ~Aelis Rophs and Kyphis the Bard 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assira the Black Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I think it would add a new... depth or twist to illusions/tags. I am not very familiar with illusions in md. An illusionist can become a master at deception or become so enthralled with the illusion that it does not differ from reality. It would be an interesting role-play element.

dst Posted December 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Ok, maybe I should give some more info on illusions and their tags so people would understand what we're dealing with at the moment. There are lots of illusions and they can be combined. This results in quite a big number of tags and descriptions (I've notice that for example a description is applied to several different tags - I don't know how the code is but looks like some sort of a combination). If you really start playing with them you'll end up with a sh***load of tags which are not unique or original (check the bots and you might find your illusion tag/description attached to one of them). Do we want this? Personally, I prefer tags that make me part of a group (like the Sky Scouter or the land militia) or my own tags. I don't really see a potential role that could derive from such a thing but then...maybe I am blind and not creative enough :P. Anyway, if you need more info, ask. If I can I will provide it.

I am Bored Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Wouldn't it make more sense to allow the tags' points to grow, but only allow the tag to be selectable when that particular illusion effect is active? Rophs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rophs Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 That's redundand. I think it's a nice balance between secretly pumping points into a tag you shouldn't have all the time and not having access to it at all. Allowing players to only put points into the Illusion's tag when they are in the illusion comes at a cost. They will be stuck in the illusion, players will KNOW if they're trying to do a takeover via tag(if that's possible) Less points for their "real" tags that the player would want to put lots of points into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong though, so please do correct if I am! In my opinion though: Illusion: Noun; an instance of a wrong or misinterpreted perception of a sensory experience. An illusion is temporary, an "instance", not something that is permanent. If you plan on turning an illusion into a permanent role then make it extremely hard. Make it so the illusion must be maintained for an extraordinarily long time. That way it is no longer an illusion, it will have become a reality.
