But the Shock Trooper makes a better "cower by the exit-every skill point into intelligence" build than the Lifecrafter.

ET, you missed the point. The Shapers were wrong. They needed to make that concession to the Rebels. It was an important turning point that changed them from the rigid and inflexible empire to a flexible one, with a greater hope of victory. They admitted they were wrong, and even if they maintain an enormous contempt for the warped Rebels, they recognize that they, too can be used.

Well, their main continent would probably be in much better shape than Terrestria, even before the Rebels attacked.

Eh, you made a good point, so necromancy forgiven.

The Shapers are already shown as making concessions in the way of acceptance and independence. They accept you as an agent, despite you being Geneforge-warped, or even a Servile. If you do some quests for the Rebels, the Shapers won't attack you on sight. Admittedly, there aren't any annoying infinite-spawn no-option-but-to-attack Rebel forts, but that is strictly explained as border control.

The Rebels are partly in the right. Creations do need to be treated at least marginally better. The art of Shaping needs to be advanced at a far faster rate, and that is only possible by recruiting more Shapers, and being more liberal with the power of Shaping.

The problem with the Rebels is that they took it too far. The canisters allow anyone to gain the power of Shaping without earning it through the effort and discipline that guarantee that they will not misuse it. They wish complete and utter freedom for creations, which would equate to an army of rogues surrounding you on all sides, with your leaders forbidding oyu from defending yourself.

The Trakovites are afraid and weak. They are jealous of the power of the Shapers, and too fearful to become Rebels. They see what has become of their lives and lands because of the misuse of Shaping, but they are unable to realize that it is misuse.

Ignore Crypto. Call it GeneWorld.

But you can't cast a spell and the move to make a melee attack. This is what killed the loner glass cannon strategy.

Did you do all the quests from the Castle?

They are gone, along with the abilities.

He'll summon four Hellhounds, though.

All right, maybe two rings. But it still won't happen. Hey, maybe there should just be two "Accessory" slots that anything random can fit into. Earrings, two rings, and finally a wearable cloak clasp!

Ha. Have fun with that one, suckers.

Actually, it's because each ring has a delicate magical aura that would be disrupted by other rings. The real reason is that it would make your characters horribly overpowered. Maybe an insanely difficult side quest/puzzle for the infinite inventory.

Look in the walkthrough at the top of the forum list.

All we need now is unlimited inventory and more magic ring slots.

Usually, The Doctor runs a Wingbolt, a Kyshakk, and a War Trall, each with only the two intelligence. It's not the best, but he can manage.

Well, they sometimes have marginally more health than the other classes, so that's something.

Jeff fixed melee in G4, now he must fix the Battle Creations!

There already is one. Look here .

Kills them. Well, twists their bodies into the disfigured image of a pseudo-drakon, thus killing them. Quite painfully.

No. The Doctor will be finicky. Nothing short of a ban will stop his powers of annoyance. Of course, he has guaranteed the ban just by saying that. Ho-hum.

Try looking in the item/creation files.

Double post. Careful, there. The Doctor doesn't know how he managed to type this, considering that he was temporarily blinded by the graemlins.

Or, perhaps, a canister that feeds on the essence from previous canisters. An excellent reform tool, and it could be deadly to creations, which are made entirely from essence. Not to mention that it could be used as a trap to strip Rebels of their power.

Topic necromancy. Posting in topics that nobody has touched for a long time. Like what you just did. Try to notice when the last post in the topic was. Better yet, only post in topics with the green circle next to them on the list.

An Geneforge-style RTS? Why, that's exactly what The Doctor would live for. Too bad it won't happen. Maybe for Blades of Geneforge.

We're real sticklers for grammar and spelling. Or, at least The Doctor is.

Yes, you don't want to firewalk with language on Spiderweb.
