Just outlining a few things that I will be changing, unless people disagree (if I see some disagreement with specifics I'll make poll(s).

- Lumberjacking will give 30% DI instead of 10%. This will still count within the 300DI cap

- Alchemy will give base enhance potion on top of the items, and on top of the item property cap. I'm thinking like 2 EP for each 10 points of alchemy, but I'll figure something out when testing.

So lets say you have 30EP in items and Gm alchemy then you have a total of 70 EP (30 + 20 from skill). The item EP will remain capped the same way it is, but the skill bonus will be tacked on after the cap.

- Extra poison/fire resist will not have an effect on corpse skin. So if you have 90 fire it will be like having 70. So it will have a better use, since most just find ways to have higher then 70 to avoid corpse skin, making it useless.

- Pain spike will now slow down (probably to a fixed value) stamina regeneration while it's in effect


- Will look at bumping gaunt loot, and take a look at demitels as well, maybe give them better loot too.

DI Cap...how exactly is that calculated again? I know it's Tactics + Anat + 100% item DI.

Definitely bump loot. I think demitels deserve turkey loot, or there abouts, since they've been bumped up in HP/Int.

So these will apply to mobs as well, right?

Tactics + Anatomy + 100% DMI items + Honor/Perfection (Around 300%)

I think osi had reasons to remove the 30% DMI from lumberjacking. Maybe make it 20% so 10% above what it is now and 10% lower than what osi found was "too high". Happy medium there: Not too high, not too low.

Slayers and other damage modifying spells apply to this as well (ex: divine fury).

Is the talon bite here the old version? Where it does 21-23 dmg? Or the nerfed version? If nerfed. Could we unnerf it?

I'll come play again if I can spam evasion again.

Talon bite's base damage is 18-20 like all other ornate axes. That old 21-23 was a problem on osi shards, especially pvp wise hence it was fixed in one of their publishes. Although we won't bring the base damage to 21-23 raw damage, your tactics and anatomy have an impact on the damage. Also, as it is an ornate axe (elven version of an executioner's axe you might say), it will be affected by the lumberjacking bonus in the future, if not already applied.

You can still spam it... every 10 seconds. But honestly if your playstyle involves always having evasion on, that takes no skill at all, hence why it was set on a timer. Regular parry chance + DCI is already a big factor for a samurai.

But but!! They're ASSASINS!!! They've been training these arts for years! Observe their tiger claw shadow strike techniques young grasshopper! Keep in mind that they're also affected by repond slayers now.
