User talk:Tihocan

Hey Tihocan, since you contribute 99% of you're edits here, then I'll just migrate here.

I noticed you've been welcoming users - Just so you know, I set up two templates, Welc and Anonwelc just for that. Simply use or, depending on if it's an anonymous IP user, or a newly registered named user. Elliott Cable -  ?+¿  -  ‹·›  00:51, May 23, 2006 (EDT)


 * I'll try to use them :] Tihocan 14:49, May 24, 2006 (EDT)

Annoying anonymous user
I don't know if he'll cause further bother, but incase he does, could you watch this user? Thanks ^^/ I hate these people who are trying to purport their own sites - why can't we just have the WIKI, then they can go get users to visit their site by having a useful community or something? Gah I can't *belive* people would be... in-courteous enough to create their own information site. They aren't offering anything to the community; just trying to personally gain from their visitors - whether it is some sort of messed-up false 'internet status', or ad money, or what I don't know - I frankly think they are crazy.

 * I think (and I also think you'd agree now, given how the discussion there has evolved) that this user meant no harm, he just wanted to share a link to a website that was more accurate than the Wiki. Can't really blame him, he didn't know this could be a problem. Tihocan 22:47, June 15, 2006 (EDT)


 * Yeah I forgot to come back here and let you know - sorry )-: lol Elliott Cable  -  ?+¿  -  ‹·›  12:12, June 16, 2006 (EDT)

Advice
Hey Tihoccan, I have a question you, actually I wanted your opinion on something. I am a 9th level Rogue and a friend of mine said that I should take 1st level fighter for my 10th level to pickup better weapons and extra feats (you get an extra feat at 1st level fighter). Do you agree with this?? I value your guys opinion (you and Sonil are great). Sorry if this is the incorrect forum or method of asking you a question like this. Thanks -Solomir


 * Well the best place to ask would be the reference desk. Though I have to admit I'm lagging a bit on the last updates, I'm trying to catch up, but Robin doesn't slow on the edits ;) It really depends on what you want. In DDO, with the current L10 cap, the main drawback will probably be the loss of your best action boost enhancement. Since the level cap is going to be raised, this will not be a problem, however you will lose on some unknown enhancements. Since as a rogue you rely on your sneak attack for damage, "better" weapons are not weapons dealing more damage, but rather having a larger choice of weapons to choose from (either from your own loot, or at brokers, or when trading). This can be good especially if you don't want to waste time looking for a specific weapon effect for a weapon you are proficient in. The extra armor proficiencies you will gain probably won't help much since you should have a high dex, and heavier armor will make you lose your dex bonus to AC. Since I think you're TWFighiting, extra shields are not really a must either. The extra feat is always nice. A note about weapons though: with high dex, you're probably using weapon finesse, which means you're necessarily constrained when choosing weapons. The fighter level will not unlock much more weapons to choose from. Now it's up to you. Personally I think I'd stick to full rogue, but taking a level of fighter can certainly be motivated.

 * Thanks for the advice. I used the same weapon finesse with my friend.  Maybe I'll add another class when the cap's increased (ranger maybe). - Solomir

Distractions
I am working on another huge web project right now. I'm a bit distracted right now, so I just thought I'd let you know I am semi-AFP for a while. Possibly indefinately. I will still get edits to my user_talk page really quick, but I will likely no longer be watching the RC page. Just letting you know, you've been doing a pretty good job till now, and I'm sure you'll continue to do so. If you need to, you can promote robin or one of the other editors to full admin also, so they can help out. (-: Elliott Cable  -  ?+¿  -  ‹·›  23:30, July 2, 2006 (EDT)
