My first act as a new Dedicated will be classes! In order to leave more options for other Dedicated when they pop up, I will take one Soldier and run the Seizing Saidin class exclusively for them! One on one classes should allow people to get through their requirements faster.

 

As to the second class, the topic will be up to the Soldier. It just can't be weapons, sorry. I don't think I'll be able to train anyone in weapons until well after I hit Asha'man. Level 10 Weapons Skill, I think.

 

Now, I don't want to seem like I'm showing favoritism, so this'll be on the first come, first serve basis.

ME! ME! ME!!!

 

Oh wait, nevermind.

 

Glad to see you all fired up. SOLDIER PEOPLE! COME ON! TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIM HERE!

 

No, not that way... put his clothes back on please.

 

kthxbye.

You'll only have a WS of 7 as an Asha'man, but we still call that good enough to teach a class. Don't have to worry about that too much.

I would love to hop onto the Saidin course.

Excellent! I shall have something up within the next two days. Be prepared!

Just as a reminder to all of you, as a Soldier you play with approximately 1/3 of your OP scores. I'll allow it to go up to 1/2 if thats what it takes for your character to form a fireball, but around 1/3 is better. As a Dedicated you go about 2/3, except for your Asha'man duel. Since that is at the end of your training, and you've just about reached your max potential you can play at about 90% strength.

 

What does this mean for all of you? Please keep your channeling abilities realistic. I noticed in the last Saidin learning RP it took about 20 minutes to go from touching Saidin to chucking logs at dummies. Not good. Picking things up with air is a draining task even for women, who are typically stronger in air than men are. So ... keep it simple. I don't like interfering with your learning RP's, but if it gets too far out of hand I'll have to.

Well, there goes my plan to throw exploding Narwhales at the White Tower. Sorry, Marquis. Anyway, here's the thread, as promised. Have fun!

Quick question about that actually. Determining one third of my actual power score is fairly easy, but do I then also work out one third of each elemental score? I.E: My spirit score of 8 would be 2.6?

If you have a score which doesn't come out as a nice clean number, just round it. I'm not going to banish you from the boards if you overplay your approximate score by .4 points.
