LA messenger quest item does not stack with monk speed.

[Umpa]

Since the item is basically made worthless to a monk, perhaps there could be some other effect the monk could get from it? So if haste isnt added perhaps endurance could be? So if the player is already hasted by thier very nature perhaps endurance would be a good logical thing, improving thier ability to run at that speed longer, which is why I was thinking endurance. That seems like a fair trade off, thats a level 2 spell I believe, and shouldn't be a show stopper in any way making that effect appear, since most people carry the potions anyway.

But monks allready have more endurance and can run longer then any other char, its called Monk Endurance and is the feat that gives you speed.

The idea for the Quickened Pace is for messengers to be able to go from one place to another quicker then non messengers, but monk can allready do this.

[Joran]

Haha....

1) Quickened Pace stacks with Monk speed!! Please fix!!

...Netrom fixes bug...

2) Hey! LA Messenger Token no longer stacks with Monk!!

:-)

What, the +1dex/+1 cha isn't enough for you already?

LA has by far the best job bonuses of any faction even without the messenger speed token.

[Death Dealer1]

yeah..MA would have nice items from jobs if the durations were longer or useable more. can't use them very much for very long so i find myself forgetting i even have them.

[JesterOI]

It would be killer to see a level 40 bard maxed out in disc and perform use that horn... there's no caps on it is there?

[Umpa]

Just so you know the Chaotic + doesn't stack with monk gloves, and what items weapons, its ussually lower then the regular attack bonus that appears to work and stack with the spells correctly. I've seen it as low at -10 AB versus the normal hit.

So yes, if the item is supposedly fixed, but now the quests are totally useless I'd like to see them fixed.

You guys are still going to be pissed about monks, I still outrun a hasted person by quite a bit. Thats your own problem I guess. But I'd like to see something useful actually work for a monk from the quests. Otherwise the class is completely eliminated from any use of the quests at all.

The horn which does work is very limited in its time effects and will very likely hose up your other buffs and is not liked in boss planes parties. I think the reuse timer is like 1 real time hour.

What ever happenend to just doing quests to get a break in the mindless xp hoarding? and doing a job because being unemployed wasn't getting the food on the table, and you wanted to help the alliance?

[Kromix]

lol at least it does something... what is +3 vs vermin andd a gas bonb vs vermins do for you? besides look preety?

[kingfatzo]

I think the point here is that some people ( ME ) built a monk so i could make use of the bonuse ( ex bonus ) given to me by the tolken .... people again have to understand that a fast monk can be stopped by a mage who doenst have a clumsy hand , it is not un-stoppable -- anyway whats done is done and im not complaining about the change b/c then this will end up like all the other LOCKED posts on this topic.... but i sure whish i could get a bonus that my monk could use with this token, just like Umpa said above...

And please dont tell me that mmonks than every other build even without the tolken,.... i know that !

[$chase$]

yeah what he said

[Umpa]

yea he was drinking and hellballed his own party 2 times before he logged to write that.

[kingfatzo]

I am honored, quoted by Auril himself !!!

oh and yes, that was a "sloppy" hellball

[Death Dealer1]

the token itself doesn't give you the bonuses. the job does. the job should still be available for you to do but the token is worthless to monks.

[kingfatzo]

That is correct.
