Dire Rat has a diseased bite with a DC that scales up with level, same with spider and poison bite, etc. Could be fun to add that in if I can find the time...

It's not intended to be a pure class ability, but it rewards those who put more levels into ranger (or druid for that matter).

I'd help with testing

everyone says that until its time...then they don't disclose the bugs they find and keep them for themselves. which stays that way until the staff finally catches on ;)

Oh oh oh, I'll test! And I promise not to be like all those other guys who kept bugs and exploits to themselves, utilizing them to god-like PvP and PvM prowess, finally getting revenge on everyone I dislike on this server, to the consternation of many! No really! Why isn't anyone taking me seriously? :?

Sweet. This sounds cool. I was going to offer to help test, but tep has spoken.

I'd gladly test it. And if there was a bug or exploit i'd find and report it no questions askedv :twisted:

In all seriousness, same as Alka.

Really though, it should be a basic matter of getting 1 person or so to represent a faction pair/group of interests, so that if they don't report a bug, someone else will to stop the other guy abusing it :lol:

I am trustworthy as well. Surely, as well-known as I am, you wouldn't dare think I would stab you in the back.

In all seriousness, I don't want to help test it. And what I mean by that is, I think you should slap it in and worry about the consequences later.

I have an epic ranger - I'd help test. Can we test it on alka? :D

I can not be trusted, but I'd be willing to do some testing so I'm not behind with abusing exploits once the feature is introduced.

Thanks.

I had to comment out. Linux compiler did not want (that may have changed since I turned off the optimize flag. I can test that if you like.)

Thought I put a post in here. I uncommented, assertion failure when it gets to the add poison part, but I'm not sure if it's just some ascii/unicode weirdness or whatnot. Compiler is supposed to be able to handle whatever garbage win uses for new line and all :)
