[14:53:03] zanzarino: Howdy[14:53:07] DesertKnight: ‹@Onizuka› ^_^
[14:53:07] kirchj33: so boring
[14:53:18] DesertKnight: ‹@zanzarino› *bows politely* Good day to you sir.
[14:53:19] kirchj33: Hai zanz
[14:53:19] Jen-i: hiya zanz
[14:53:29] Onizuka: ‹@zanzarino› Ohaider
[14:53:33] DesertKnight: ‹@zanzarino›
we know you're here for something, what may we help you with?
[14:53:43] MatrimKK: hey zanz!
[14:53:54] Malignant: Hi Zanz.
[14:53:57] ~Napalm: Zanzarino!
[14:53:57] zanzarino: Putting the finishing touches on 1.29[14:54:02] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Oh my God.
[14:54:03] Onizuka: Make cap at 100 kthxbai
[14:54:10] zanzarino: I'll probably put it online tonight[14:54:15] CCCombobreaker: OMG THE ZANZ? this is a weird experience for me... it's like sitting here on my PC and then Bill Gates walks into my room
[14:54:17] Xenocidius: Finally I get to meet him.
[14:54:20] Malignant: Huzzah!
[14:54:21] ~Napalm:
[14:54:21] DesertKnight: ‹@zanzarino› wonderful, new beta? or this coming out offically soon?
[14:54:24] bucky1andonly: /cancels oni
[14:54:28] ~Napalm: Great news!
[14:54:29] Xenocidius: ‹@CCCombobreaker› Just don't spam him with questions.
[14:54:30] EmeraldTiger: ‹@zanzarino› hello
[14:54:39] DesertKnight: ‹@CCCombobreaker› eassssy... don't want to scare him off now
[14:54:51] Jen-i: cool zanz - I look forward to grinding up the new rares
[14:54:51] Onizuka: My siphon life decks are crying because of the low cap
[14:54:53] zanzarino: lol[14:54:54] ~Napalm: Fire can finally stop preparing 2 of everything. It was rather tedius
[14:54:54] Malignant: Oh look someone have a pokemon name as a forum name.
[14:54:54] Xenocidius: *Scares Zanz off*
[14:54:57] Jaymanfu: better before war then during imo
[14:54:59] light_sefi: ‹@CCCombobreaker› steve jobs?
[14:55:01] majofa: ‹@~Napalm› throw those immos in the garbage ha!
[14:55:07] zanzarino: 75? really?[14:55:08] Xenocidius: Suddenly, epic chat lag.
[14:55:19] light_sefi: *prepares rare grinder*
[14:55:19] CCCombobreaker: ‹@light_sefi› he's dead and I said PC
[14:55:29] ~Napalm: Don't worry majofa.
[14:55:36] bucky1andonly: 75 is too high, it really changes nothing
[14:55:47] ~Napalm: Antagon the Annihilator has planned something special for this War.
[14:55:47] Malignant: Quanta Cap = No Insane High damage Fahrenheit D:
[14:55:49] zanzarino: the new cards are not going to be available immediately (as usual)[14:55:50] bucky1andonly: might as well not put a cap if you choose 75
[14:55:50] Xenocidius: There was something I meant to ask when Zanz was online ..
[14:55:59] Onizuka: 75 allows firebolt to still kill, but leaves siphon and icebolt out inthe cold.
[14:56:08] zanzarino: I agree cap at 75 is not changing a thing
[14:56:11] zanzarino: (almost)[14:56:11] ~Napalm: I love this guy btw.
[14:56:18] DesertKnight: ‹@zanzarino› oh just the "tweaks?" like flooding , fire? card background chagnes only?
[14:56:20] light_sefi: ‹@CCCombobreaker› no, I meant that it'd be more epic if steve jobs went into your room
[14:56:23] Bonestorm: firebolt for 2 damage/10 quanta?
[14:56:24] majofa: ‹@zanzarino› what was wrong with putting a cap on fire bolt and fahrenheit
[14:56:34] zanzarino: but my plan is to give a lower-the-cap skill to the aether shard[14:56:52] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› That sounds interesting.
[14:56:54] zanzarino: and give a bonus to immaterials[14:56:59] CCCombobreaker: ‹@Bonestorm› this idea is a winner imo
[14:57:00] Xenocidius: We were musing about cap-changing cards.
[14:57:00] bucky1andonly: ‹@Onizuka› im gonna put a firestall in the arena every chance i get just for you
[14:57:05] Malignant: Care to add the latest additions to 1.29 in the Original Post Zanz?[14:57:13] Bonestorm: ‹@zanzarino› the 75 cap gives dissapation shield some unneccesary hurt
[14:57:14] Onizuka: The additional effects of the other bolts don't match up at all.
[14:57:27] zanzarino: I will malignant[14:57:33] Onizuka: ‹@bucky1andonly› Have fun being in bronze. Only arena I grind.
[14:57:45] Malebolgia: Hey zanz... the death shard... the ignorance seems kina bland... perhaps make it trigger death effects instead?
[14:57:49] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Could you post the new Darkness background so that I can update the Card Image Builder?[14:58:20] Xenocidius: There's a lot of debate about SoS, but I think it may have been fixed.[14:58:28] zanzarino: Xeno: I'll put it online with the others tonight[14:58:28] Xenocidius: The risk is pretty high now.
[14:58:40] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Thanks.
[14:58:44] zanzarino: Sacrifice?[14:58:55] kirchj33: Good thing this doesn't screw up all of our war testing... oh wait..
[14:59:01] MatrimKK: risk/reward = sacrifice I like it
[14:59:03] Xenocidius: Yeah, whoops. Sacrifice.
[14:59:04] zanzarino: It is quite a simple concept: it is an anti-rush card[14:59:14] Malignant: Now you can use old background as pseudo-card images. Fun.
[14:59:19] zanzarino: It limits the damage you can take to 1/4 of the HP cost[14:59:22] MatrimKK: kirch it's happening before vaults are settled I'm happy about this
[14:59:25] Xenocidius: Sacrificing a creature would be interesting as well.
[14:59:30] Jen-i: guess this means I'm gonna have to wait a while longer to join the awesome club
[14:59:30] zanzarino: per turn[14:59:36] Onizuka: ‹@kirchj33› All your Stone skin decks are minor nerfed!
[14:59:44] bucky1andonly: people dont understand that its not meant to be a card played to heal you back up
[14:59:55] MatrimKK: Jen<3 you are awesome to me
[15:00:01] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Sundial and Dimensional Shield are already anti-rush.
[15:00:12] zanzarino: The original concept was : you kill yourself and turn yourself into an undead... but it was a bit too drastic
[15:00:17] zanzarino: With the 1 Hp thing[15:00:26] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› I like that idea :O
[15:00:37] Xenocidius: Oh, right.
[15:00:41] bogtro: omg zanz in chat D:
[15:00:51] Jaymanfu: still with shard of sac was a perm :/
[15:01:08] MatrimKK: with it being untargetable that's still viable but I like the current version
[15:01:13] bucky1andonly: if anyone can kill me with icebolts in league or tourney play, i will agree that the cap might hurt them
[15:01:24] Malebolgia: The issue to be honest is the affinity to death...
[15:01:31] Malebolgia: it hardly phases anything.
[15:01:46] Malebolgia: just like fractal or miracle hardly hurts.
[15:01:58] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Off-topic: you have admin rights on the Forums, don't you?
[15:02:00] Malignant: Mutant Time Creature + SoR -> Only 1 creature is mutated, intended?
[15:02:12] bucky1andonly: also, voids pretty useless
[15:02:18] bogtro: ‹@zanzarino› Cap should be at 75 for stone skin - if it's at 50 stone skin has to be changed
[15:02:21] Xenocidius: Zomg my inbox is being spammed.
[15:02:36] zanzarino: Uhm not intended but it does not sound like a big deal [15:02:44] MatrimKK: 75 still gimps SS slightly
[15:02:56] willng3: "May as well go brush my teeth right now since nothing interesting's happening in chat. Zanz rarely comes on at this hour anyways."
[15:03:07] Malignant: Mutant Time Creature with Hatch*
[15:03:07] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› The quanta cap means max 74 HP increase from Stone Skin. Also, the text is now irrelevant.[15:03:14] MatrimKK: lol will!
[15:03:14] willng3: Suddenly, zanz appears and now I question my logic.
[15:03:18] Xenocidius: ‹@willng3› Trololol
[15:03:44] zanzarino: Yes that text has to go[15:03:46] MatrimKK: 73 from SS 74 from GS I believe
[15:03:54] bucky1andonly: i have never been beaten by someone using stone skins, mostly because no ones bothered to use them
[15:03:55] Legit: zanz can you rap? elementscommunity.com/forum/index.php/topic,32064.0.html
[15:03:58] Xenocidius: He picked the time when everyone's on chat :/
[15:03:59] Jaymanfu: anyone else watching the oregon game?
[15:04:09] MatrimKK: *dreads updating cards sections but has been meaning to anyways*
[15:04:14] bucky1andonly: i still dont see the argument for stone skin staying at 75 relevant
[15:04:16] Xenocidius: ‹@Legit› That thread is legit.
[15:04:17] Legit: (Actually I can't rap, I can just write rhymes)
[15:04:21] bogtro: ‹@bucky1andonly› that doesn't change the fact that it would have to be changed...
[15:04:45] Malignant: *Random Image* i.imgur.com/y0SOL.png
[15:04:45] bucky1andonly: i dont think changing stone skin is very difficult
[15:04:46] Legit: ‹@Xenocidius› Indeed. If more people participated it would be so epic
[15:04:53] zanzarino: Ok, I am going to go and clean up the new version and put it online - lurking nowA short while later:
[15:14:36] zanzarino: Oh - also - while I am waiting for some files to save... I increased the frozen bonus on catapult to 50%[15:14:48] Malebolgia: Sweet.
[15:14:52] Onizuka:
[15:14:53] willng3: Good lord.
[15:14:56] Jen-i: aww look and ugly smelly pony
[15:14:59] bucky1andonly: lmao
[15:14:59] light_sefi: if the 1350+ cost nymphs made it into the game, I'd sell all my ups to buy 12 of each
[15:15:06] zanzarino: Saved - lurking againLater again:
[15:34:30] zanzarino: Ok 1.29 is now live...[15:34:38] Jaymanfu: ;/
[15:34:41] bogtro: O.O.O
[15:34:42] Jaymanfu: zomg
[15:34:42] zanzarino: Going to update the forum post in a minute[15:34:43] Malignant: Woot.
[15:34:44] ~Napalm: You didn't nom my Arena electrum did you?! D:[15:34:55] light_sefi: ‹@Xenocidius› maybe 1|5
[15:34:55] 1chase1997: o.0
[15:35:04] Gumbeh: for 5 quanta and then 3 per skill use, BE approaches the expense of cards like Nymph, Pharaoh, Anubis, without giving you a standalone creature
[15:35:06] MatrimKK: ty zanz
[15:35:11] light_sefi: uhh. 1|6
[15:35:12] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› :O
[15:35:16] zanzarino: No arena cash is untouched 
[15:35:27] 1chase1997: so, what are the new updates of 1.29 besides the new shards?
[15:35:27] light_sefi: yay!
[15:35:31] Gumbeh: (like you would normall expect for that kind of expense)
[15:35:34] ~Napalm: Yay!
[15:35:35] willng3: Killed a Destroyer rush with 40000000000 Minor Phoenixes before the nerf. I feel successful.
[15:35:40] ~Napalm: I still have over nine thousand then!
[15:35:44] Malignant: Woot. Mark of Death shiny.
[15:35:47] Jaymanfu: what happens if I don't refresh and I play against arena decks, do they have nerf and I dont?
[15:35:47] ~Napalm: lol will
[15:35:53] zanzarino: And thank you for all the ideas i got while i was lurking... I'll print them and read all of them during the next 3 years [15:36:00] MatrimKK: Gumbeh again no good target in element unupped
[15:36:01] ~Napalm: Now then. We have 2.5 days to finish our initial vaults.
[15:36:14] willng3: Lmao.
[15:36:17] Malignant: Print eh. Reminds me of the guest who printed the Pictures thread.
[15:36:18] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Rofl.
[15:36:19] MatrimKK: I can only imagine xD
[15:36:28] Xenocidius: ‹@Malignant› Zanz is a creeper :O
[15:36:29] Gumbeh: ‹@zanzarino› high five mate, thanks for the update
[15:36:32] 1chase1997: ‹@Xenocidius› BL?
[15:36:33] bogtro: imma go see if GoD is still workable
[15:36:35] bogtro: bye
[15:36:36] Jaymanfu: sounds about right
[15:36:37] MatrimKK: lulz Malig
[15:36:45] Malignant: Are the new shards winnable in any way yet?
[15:36:48] MatrimKK: Malig... win UW
[15:36:54] MatrimKK: compels you!
[15:37:02] zanzarino: No new shards yet[15:37:03] TStar: UW tourney makes me sick
[15:37:10] Malignant: Make me decks
[15:37:20] bogtro: ‹@zanzarino› ugh, and I was just going to farm bronze >.>
[15:37:20] MatrimKK: hey T!
[15:37:21] Gumbeh: ‹@MatrimKK› yeah for 5 now and 3 per skill use, I was saying BE maybe even deserves to be a creature all by itself
[15:37:27] Gumbeh: rather than being a buff
[15:37:27] zanzarino: I have to wait for the new evrsion to go online for everyone first[15:37:29] Malignant: *Makes OTK with SoR*
[15:37:41] MatrimKK: suddenly bronze league = 1 reward lol
[15:37:42] Xenocidius: ‹@1chase1997› Zanz is talking. No. :/
[15:37:44] ~Napalm: How long before Kong gets it?[15:37:52] zanzarino: version*[15:37:57] Malignant: Won't the new card effect cause PvP to go bonky?
[15:38:00] Gumbeh: compare to other repeatable expensive effects like Octopus, Nymph, Anubis, Pharaoh
[15:38:00] 1chase1997: ‹@Xenocidius› oh ok.
[15:38:05] willng3: Last Gold special spin before 1.29 hits...ah this feels sentimental.
[15:38:23] MatrimKK: @G I like the spell a lot, I'd like to see a cost reduction or a good target in element
[15:38:23] zanzarino: Kong is going to get the new version in a few mins[15:38:29] TStar: Can't say I'm looking forward to having to face the dude Dm did
[15:38:34] willng3: And I didn't forget to spin!
[15:38:35] ~Napalm: Ah ok
[15:38:37] TStar: or having that tool as a teammate
[15:38:37] ~Napalm: QUICK WILL!
[15:38:40] ~Napalm: PVP ME!
[15:38:41] zanzarino: Unless something goes really wrong on teh main site[15:38:43] Malignant: Chimera have 3 bands
[15:38:46] ~Napalm: I STILL HAVE UNNERFED IMMO!
[15:38:47] Malignant: Foil Chimera*
[15:38:57] MatrimKK: go will!
[15:38:59] light_sefi: it's taking forever to load. 1.285 was in my cache for fast loading. *waits patiently*
[15:39:02] ~Napalm: Oh yeah Zanz. I meant to ask you.
[15:39:03] willng3: Hmm...now that's interesting.
[15:39:08] Gumbeh: Kong is in a separate, quarantined area?
[15:39:26] willng3: Oh snap. DUEL ME POOFY
[15:39:27] Gumbeh: does that mean we don't run into them during PVP1/2?
[15:39:33] 1chase1997: earth/grav background cool
[15:39:35] ~Napalm: Any idea if/when the new art will be released? And if so, what will you do about Chimera art?[15:39:48] willng3: We just might manage to break the game here.
[15:40:02] ~Napalm: lol
[15:40:03] Malebolgia: ‹@zanzarino› Just throwing this out there, but SoS is very bland on its favoritism towards Death.
[15:40:15] Sevs: 1.29is out
[15:40:15] zanzarino: New art?[15:40:16] willng3: Searching
[15:40:56] zanzarino: PVP1/2 is in common with kong[15:41:33] Xenocidius: As I've mentioned, SoS would be cooler if you sacrificed a creature for the effect
[15:41:38] Xenocidius: Subtle death benefit ftw.[15:41:48] bogtro: ‹@zanzarino› 2 suggestions (i know you must have seen them before): a) Make SoS like SN - basically free but with some quanta requirement. Make it like "Can only be played if you have (x) death quanta". b) All the fire nerfs are good ideas alone (i guess), but having all 3 at the same time is... blech. Really should consider retracting one of them
[15:41:49] 1chase1997: ‹@Xenocidius› would be cool.
[15:41:50] Xenocidius: ‹@~Napalm› New art?
[15:41:53] ~Napalm: I was under the impression that vrt and pepo had new art that was going to be released.[15:41:53] bogtro: ok end of raging
[15:41:58] bogtro: back to seeing how viable god is
[15:42:04] Jaymanfu: already trolled by 2 cost explosion >o
[15:42:13] Malignant: 234|36 Chimera OTK!
[15:42:13] Malebolgia: The quanta favoritism hardly scratches much imo, since planned as the last card, a player will just reproduce the quanta needed.
[15:42:28] Malignant: *Happy dance~*
[15:42:28] 1chase1997: i like how it says HP: 100 / 100
[15:42:33] TStar: The only difference between upped and unupped shards is playing cost? Weak
[15:42:34] zanzarino: Xeno - that completely kills the anti-rush maning of the card
[15:42:37] zanzarino: meaning*[15:42:42] light_sefi: ‹@Malignant› only 36hp? how?
[15:42:54] Malignant: Silurian Dragons. 8/9 of them.
[15:43:02] CCCombobreaker: ‹@zanzarino› I like the RARE / ULTRA RARE marks at the top of cards. but why did you make the background on Earth cards so dark?
[15:43:04] zanzarino: Napalm I did not know about that stuff from vrt/pepo
[15:43:07] zanzarino: Link?[15:43:24] CCCombobreaker: the new life background is great though
[15:43:29] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Otyugh art: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,29031 (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,29031)[15:43:43] light_sefi: ‹@Malignant› *takes brain out from box* I've been playing with VVV too much
[15:43:47] Sevs: rares are in arena?
[15:43:50] Rember: Wat, leave earth background alone it's glorious
[15:44:03] Rember: (the new one that is)
[15:44:13] Malebolgia: ‹@zanzarino› Perhaps SoS will instead drain all quanta and trigger death effects? Quanta favoritism is a very bland way towards an element, as opposed to synergizing directly with the cards or mechanics...
[15:44:18] EmeraldTiger: ‹@zanzarino› would you ever consider a helm slot? i.imgur.com/INbeE.png
[15:44:56] Malignant: If only inputting the new shard card codes work.
[15:45:05] Malebolgia: Or mark.
[15:45:12] Rember: and introduce silly hats from oracle? I'm sold
[15:45:16] zanzarino: Otyugh looks nice... going to use it for the upped one... anything else?Le zoom into future:
[15:49:03] zanzarino: I do not know yet about the fire new card, any suggestion napalm?[15:49:06] ~Napalm: Sounds like a plan will.
[15:49:14] ~Napalm: Oooooh!
[15:49:20] light_sefi: 16 extra SoG's. to sell or not to sell
[15:49:21] ~Napalm: I like this
[15:49:25] Xenocidius: ‹@Gumbeh› Lots of good stuff in the CIA.
[15:49:38] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› * Tagging fail.
[15:49:46] willng3: 94 extra SoGs...
[15:49:51] EmeraldTiger: ‹@zanzarino› fire shard?[15:49:59] ~Napalm: Lesse. Transmogriphication (1 ) Target Fire creature becomes a Phoenix!
[15:50:12] zanzarino: Besides fire shard[15:50:15] Malebolgia: Lol...
[15:50:24] Gumbeh: ‹@~Napalm› ‹@zanzarino› Suicidal Rush: Spell: All your creatures are set on fire for 3 damage per round (like poison). Draw 3 cards from your deck.
[15:50:27] willng3: Oh snap. They sell for 149 a piece xD
[15:50:39] Malignant: Turn all Phoenix into Ash.
[15:50:40] Malebolgia: Though not at all my say, why not a permanent...?
[15:50:49] willng3: Sweet mother of god this sucks that I've completed my card collection already.
[15:50:56] Legit: Unupped shards worth more!
[15:51:04] ~Napalm: No srsly now. I don't know. I've never come up with anything that would be perfect for Fire.[15:51:20] light_sefi: ‹@willng3› I regret selling SoG's I got back in 1.26
[15:51:23] Malebolgia: ‹@~Napalm› You have an Armory card...
[15:51:26] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› A spell that destroys a card in the opponent's hand?
[15:51:28] zanzarino: eheh ok... you have some time[15:51:33] TheonlyrealBeef: Perfect for Fire? A nerf!
[15:51:40] Xenocidius: ‹@zanzarino› Upped - destroys target card - synergy with Precognition.
[15:51:49] EmeraldTiger: *looking at armory*
[15:51:52] Malebolgia: Lol.
[15:51:53] ~Napalm: Yeah Male. But that's another Creature.
[15:51:57] willng3: TheonlyrealtrollingBeef
[15:51:58] ~Napalm: Fire doesn't really need another one.
[15:52:06] Xenocidius: I don't think there are any fire cards in the Armory ..
[15:52:09] TStar: Anyone have a link to the final patch notes/
[15:52:12] Bonestorm: are the new shards readily available, or just some of them, or none? ;o
[15:52:13] TStar: *notes
[15:52:13] majofa: ‹@willng3› 97 x 149 = happiness
[15:52:23] Malebolgia: True, I suppose.
[15:52:24] ~Napalm: Ultimately, a Permanent of some kind would be awesome.
[15:52:29] Jaymanfu: >.>
[15:52:30] zanzarino: Going to patch kong now - lurking again
