What the hell just happened? He struck me for 0, then I struck him for 3, then the battle ended but it doesn't say I won or lost. What went on?

ya, deaths are rather sudden and confusing it seems

Yep... I'm teh loser. I'm not sure whether I should hold onto my cash till I can get gauntlets AND healing, or just front for the healing now.

Hey Ao the Overkitty, is that my avatar with different dimensions, or did you have that picture and crop/resize it yourself?

Crothian · May 2, 2004

front the healing.....

Hey I just realized that you lose MP's even if you'Re not using spells...

Altamont Ravenard · May 2, 2004

Well, Good night all, for real. See you later.

That is your avatar with 90x90 dimensions.

I think it looks very nice. Course, Black Mage is great.

You lose MP from damage dealt. 1/2 the HP damage also damages MP. And the way combat works, it's possible for a character with a defense of a million to still roll a 1 on his defense check, allowing the attacker to deal lots of damage.

The way it appers to work is this: You roll 1d(Strength) and 1d(Defense), then take the first roll and subtract the second. That gives you the damage dealt. So, it's quite possible for a super high strength to deal nothing and a low defense to block it all. Half of the damage also takes away MP, but you can still use spells even without MP for some reason.

I'm not sure what selecting the skills does though. Perhaps they are two different pre-generated dicerolls, so you pick one?
