Elements RPG for Realz this time by Gl1tch part 3

Well, you have stumbled onto one of my main problems.

Leveling is slow and in extreme increments.  Instead of a nice curve it's more of a stairstep.

Also:  Control of your copy is given, as to make your character balance.

Thanks. I think that RP experience addition would be a good idea though, or perhaps just faster finding and random encounters with enemies.

Thrice looks over at the dead body, then again, shrugs, "Honestly, I've no clue. I've never seen him before. Maybe it was one of the others? I'm resting down here for the night, but you'll likely find them up that ladder, or at the inn. Tell them Thrice sent you."

InC: "Will do. I'm sure they'll fill me in on what I need to know."

OOC: Havelock's not going any farther than that, since he figures that Thrice (And he's still suspicious whether that is Thrice or not) has told him all he's going to tell.

Okay:  Official new leveling system

Every 200 experience points you earn an UPGRADE POINT, which will upgrade an ability or spell you already have.
Every level you get to learn a new ability with ABILITY POINTS.

We'll do leveling stuff tomorrow, but that should make things faster.

Sounds good. The only minor problem I have is that because it takes 1000 exp (Correct me if I'm wrong) to level up, you will have already maxed out your skill (Or saved points, meh) by the time you level up. That might be intentional though.

OOC: heh, 10point short of an upgrade 

Inc: Swift decides to take one final look around to see if anyone missed anything.  Once satisfied that nothing was missed he heads down to the front entrance of the shop and waits there until it opens.

So what happens when I upgrade devour? Can I start eating live creatures, or do i get a larger bonus from eating them?

I have the same question only with snipe.

And if I upgrade Venom? Or Neurotoxin if I can save it

I would assume it spreads faster through the enemy's body, or maybe your Senbon become lightly thicker but hollow to hold more poison, I think it would be the first since the upgrade of poison is "Deadly Poison."  And I think Neurotoxin would hurt the opponent whenever they move.

Page 8 of part 2 (last post) has links for ability progression that gl1tch was working on and i was organizing...they may help answer your questions.

So what, I spend my upgrade points on other things within my tier?

[Terroking]

Forgot to say...

Havelock begins climbing up the ladder, summoning his Deja Vu clone at the top and calling to the group.

"You're friends of Thrice?

[Bender74d]

Sorry, formating went screwy on that, but its fixed...from left to right the chart goes...

Ability Name/Ability Notes/stage 1/stage 2/stage 3/stage 4

you start at stage 1 and each time you spend an upgrade point in that skill you move up a stage (unless gl1tch is changing it)

He never explained what splice ment though

[Purity_Riot]

So now I've got stage 4 of Venom and stage 2 of Neurotoxin, having spent all 4 points.

How many upgraded points do I have? I lost count a long time ago.
