Change to Stat Prefs ...

Donut Dwellers,

For many years, the adventurer guilds throughout the land have offered the
chance to on the aspects of one's statistics and, in so doing,
alter the way one focuses their efforts toward growth. Mercade dipped his
magic stirring spoon into the Tea of Reality today, and it seems that new
options have become available!

It is now possible, while meditating, to shift your focus primarily toward
either physical (STR, DEX, CON) or mental (INT, WIS, DIS) statistics. Those
who wish to put double the effort toward one side of the spectrum now have
the opportunity.

Thanks go to Madmartigan for the idea!
G.

I do like the idea, but I have a question about it. Will it still be possible
to focus on two stats?

I may suck for a dwarf to focus on str, or a hobbit on dex. A gnome
might want to focus on wis but not on int.

Just want to point out, that this is no complaint, just wonder if it is
possible.

As I understand it, you can now double focus:

1. the old <stat> <stat>
2. and in addition <mental>/<physical>

Thus putting even more emphasis on your chosen stats.

Deep in trance you can select to concentrate on improving your different stats. Simply type "abort" to keep your preferences unchanged.
The syntax is "<stat> [and] <stat>" using the stats strength, dexterity, constitution, intelligence, wisdom and discipline (or their known abbreviations).
You may also enter "evenly", "mental" or "physical" to direct your focus.
So no.. You can choose mental or physical instead of picking the two stats, if you like..

Gorboth mentioned it won't be available until AFTER the arma, so we can only speculate until then.

Hehe we both know that is never gonna happen.
And it was a bit cheaty.. :lol:
But this new is cool too.

Once you get relative ratios set using two stat method can use combats to grow them all evenly and not have to keep switching back and forward... So nice one! Thanks.
