So what happened to Ophion?

Anyone who reads the cleric boards can figure out that Ophion's gone. Any idea what happened? reg
Well I don't know but it might have something with the fact that he has said in the past "no" to semi-redux and then uliq (I think) and melissa turn around and saying its gonna happen. reg
Uh, Ophion's not gone. Yeah, Uliq took over as the Cleric Guru, but that's about it. People can only have so much on their plate until they finally need to let someone help out.

Ophion is a great person but a terrible GM I don't think hes ever liked me very much since I called his policies fucking bullshit in the middle of the cleric seminar at simucon 2000 heh. Pardon the naughty words. reg

Hehe, funny. Want to shed some light on those policies?

Strange, then why can't Uliq just ask him about his former plans? He had no idea what interdiction was supposed to be, hardly any notes on anything, asked players what Ophion had said in the past, and completely dodged part of a post that asked what had happened to Ophion.

I seriously doubt he'd be so confused as to Ophion's former plans if he could just ask Ophion, hm?

So, are you really sure Ophion's still around? Cause if he is, he and Uliq sure don't get along. reg

Considering all that was posted in the cleric folder was that Uliq was taking over the guru position, I think Ophion's still around. He does do a lot of other things for Gemstone.

GMs are hardly known for their unity. reg

Here are some of the comments. Either Ophion's the most unprofessional guy I've ever heard of or he's gone.

  • From what I recall, Ophion's plans were to have an effect similar to the plasma criticals established in DW
  • What I do need now is this:

    Any information regarding the implementation of new spells not seen yet.

    I don't necessarily have all my logs from back when Ophion spoke about it, so if anyone has the discussion on how these spells were going to work, please post them a shoot them over to my play.net address.

  • Subject Atonement. (7666)

    Does anyone have any notes/ideas on what this was supposed to be/do? <chuckle>

    I can't recall anything off the top of my head.

  • >Can't you just ask Ophion or did something dreadful happen? According to him it was going to be released last July, but never was. That would indicate to me that the majority of the work was already done on the spell since his normal statement was along the lines of "it will be ready when it's ready".

    No coding has been done on the spell from what I've seen. I found some notes and got some information Warden handed my way. However, Atonement, Sanctify and Exorcism have taken a back seat to Repel. (They'd probably be handled in this order once I get Repel up and running too.)

    I think I see how the spell may have wanted to be implemented now with reading what folks have sent my way.

I hope they don't mess up repel. Sounds like they plan to screw it up. reg

Well, I would have agreed with you. Those changes didn't please me any. Having to cast 308 first is a pain in the butt if you ask me.

Cry me a river. They're in for a good reason. I've unlinked many a time because I don't want certian clerics raising me.

The roundtime on 308 is there to give the body time to unlink, should he so desire. Otherwise, someone would just 308 and raise in 3 seconds, defeating the entire purpose of 308.

You missed a spot...

I DO care. Clean it up.

sorry on that swear buck but it wouldn't have had the same effect if I didn't type what I really had said at simucon.

and I wasn't complaining about the 308 RT I was complaining about the hidden RT that you have to wait after you rezz someone.

Yes, that was my general complaint also. reg
