New Equipment (2/19/08)

'The relic weapons should talk in say when the person weaponskills'

Gjallarhorn wouldn't be able to say a thing. Kind of ironic considering its an instrument and its purpose is to make noise.

it could hum in harmony with the flute.


Has anyone every taken 3 bards, one with a flute another with a harp and another with voice and use Trobodour then sing a song in harmony and see if they mesh together well?

[ringthree]

Septimus or Rocl, I can't figure out which one did it. At first, I thought it was Septimus, and I actually thought to myself "Wow, self, Septimus may have just surpassed Rocl as resident bad-ass of BG" but then BAM! next page, Rocl with the counter punch of the quoted BG rules.

Well, whoever it was that slapped the gigantic faggot on Lucavi, praise be unto you. It was like the clouds parted and a chorus of angels sang down from the firmament.

[Rocl]

Neither of us can slap the gigantic faggot. There is another, Luke.

[BerenTebogo]

It was me.

Someone did something like that, although I think they did it the crazy! way and used audio editing software. It was posted on Allakhazam about a billion years ago on the BRD forum; not sure where you could find it now.

Square does kind of have a history of making some of the best gear in the game look like absolute crap, so you have to choose between good stats, and looking like an idiot.

Prime Example : Optical Hat. (It's not as great now, but don't knock it, you know your ass had your cluster sitting in your bazaar for those Friday Night shitfests down in Den of Rancor.)

I wonder if they ever added a pair of leg armor that had 10% haste on it, as opposed to Byakko's 5%, but they made it a pink subligar appearance, how many people would give up their dignity for it

I'd sport that shit.

they mesh perfectly, actually.. I have it on mp3.. but just the strings and the wind, because I don't particularly like the singing people.. and that there are so many variations of those people singing.

My FRAPs sound is messed up, so I can't post the video, but...

In AltanaView, if you are in the PC tab, you can set up costumes and view character actions and such. In the Action section, put the two drop down boxes on (Basic) and hit the radio button for Schedule: and select ??? in the drop-down box. It's the only option there in Japanese for some reason, and it's the very last option in the whole box.

The character will then sing/play but you'll hear all three parts at once.

Also, Septimus, you missed my present.

[SeraphusRagnarok]

I wonder what flute/harp and every male/female/race/type combined would sound like at once, like a choir!

[travOtaku]

Wow, those new earrings and waist items look BADASS!

Visual if anyone missed it.

[Seig]

Most likely they'll just throw in dnc & sch af, along with Nyzul relics this update.. then have us wait another month for the actual "new" gear and weapons.

I'd wear it even if it was a pink thong that had flashing red hearts and shot rainbows out of it in random directions now and then for 10% haste.

You know I'd walk around topless on my mithra with that on even without the haste, already got a pink panty mod O_o
Hell I think I got a pic of me near naked singing as a bard at tiamat ...

[Khamsin]

I wonder what flute/harp and every male/female/race/type combined would sound like at once, like a choir!

Every race/gender combo singing voice together would sound like a choir. Every instrument would sound like an orchestra. Together, they'd sound like... whatever it's called when you have voice and accompaniment.

[Kyreth]

BG. Managing to turn a single teaser pic into a discussion on bard SFX and actually being interesting.

Edit note: http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/77589 shows you can do a lot with a little as far as the bard SFX goes, but I do wish they'd have put a bit more variety in. A few short sound files is all it'd take...

I have no dignity, I would wear it in a heartbeat and try to get a pair for my Galka as well.

I think that people are falling victim to their own unreasonable expectations. "We want weapons that sparkle out pink glitter and float on a cloud when they aren't in use." I want Galka g-strings with extra bulgy action, but I am not going to get my hopes up that it will ever happen.

Some expectations aren't so unreasonable...

Elmer, we've lost track of how many internets you are owed. Might as well throw another one on the heap for that picture. :D
