Still having issue with Intelligence

(8 posts)

    You asked me to monitor my intell and report back if it had'nt gone up.
    It has in fact gone DOWN. So I'm reporting it now as a bug. I tried to ask
    an ST but was told rather cooly to stop watching my stats and RP. Sense
    they can't adress the issue directly, I don't know what else to do about it.

    I tried all your suggestions, everything else is working pretty much like it
    should except 'Intelligence' So either I'm missing something vital or it's
    something else. For perspective, I've been a player for about 9 months now
    averaging about 6 hours a day on the floor, and My intell has NEVER gone
    up, only down. So I'm more than a lil baffled as to what to try next.

    Here are the steps I've taken sense we last spoke on this, about a month ago?

    1 : Replaced the entire hud, sentential, etc.. at least three times.

    2 : Followed all your suggestions about interacting with new people.

    3 : Made better use of my skills, and abilities, and /2 functions ( IE got out there an RP'd my butt off )

    4 : Tried to stay on top of what I was doing, and how it effected my RP ( Stayed STRICTLY IC as much as possible )

    5 : Tried several suggestion regarding HOW I play my character. ( Detailed my actions very specificly, even when alone )

    6 : Defeated Big Bertha in single combat ( ONCE ), without dying. Mixing sword, bite, and abilities.
    [19:18] Big Bertha: ((Usagi Vyper is awarded 84440 experience points for the defeat.))

    Stats may go up and down by a small percentage based on Hunger etc.

    Going from 50% down to 45% is normal. (We all get blonde moments :P )

    How much has your Intel gone down? By a HUGE amount.

    Please tell me the figures.

    perminatly down from it start to 10%.. and it's not hungar related. This isa perminate drop.

    Furthermore, it has NEVER gone up.. only down

    It went down cos you persistently did PHYSICAL things all the time. Constant melee, running around, labour work are all physical. This means the system is weighting your attributes towards the less intelligent side of things.

    It isn't possible to be high percentage levels at EVERYTHING to which your character sheet is starting to look like. There has to be a balance. The best way is to find a medium.

    The good news is, due to your job profession choice, I have adjusted the profession so the weightings are a little better. Yes, this will affect other people too. There is no way I can adjust a single persons stats. Like your stats are balanced against every other trait, your character is also balanced with those around you. This is the INFLUENCE and forms the basis of the heart of LaRPS. (read up on dialectical materialism) .

    So stop doing physical things for a week or two and try more intellectual chores. That will improve things. :)

    You've already got a high range of skills for your Wisdom that are very physical based, so try learning some intellectual ones.

    Best of luck with your character evolution and Happy RPin.

    ^V^

    Ok. Stopping the physical i can do, but I'm unclear on the seperation of intelligence and wisdom on the skill / activities set.
    Remember, I'm notta gamer, SL has been my first real gaming experience so I'm a lil lost on some of the dinstinctions.

    And just as I posted that it all started moving again... ermm Thank you?

    No worries, just continue to RP normally, trying different things :) You'll soon discover you'll evolve. Just don't watch your stats so often, watch your chat log instead :P
