Home: for demons when a you get a new limb that will replace a rotten one, it sould say that its growing under
the rotten one. i hate haveing a good limb replaced by something when i think its going to take over a rotten spot.

Rhyme: when you bamf a mob successfully, all of their equipment and gold fall to the ground.


Demon limbs always grow under the oldest copy of a limb (if it's a limb that is useless in duplicate, it will grow under the rotten one). Demon limbs do always tell you what kind of limb they're growing under. Should you ever see a limb replaced that doesn't fit these rules, it is a bug. Please log it and send the log to slart along with a bug report.

Having bamf work that way would seriously unbalance the spell.

Getting old...
Your potted plants stay alive..

Having sex in a twin-sized bed is absurd.

You keep more food than beer in the fridge.

6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to sleep.

You hear your favorite song on the elevator at work.

You carry an umbrella.

You watch the Weather Channel.

Your friends marry and divorce instead of hookup and breakup.

You go from 130 days of vacation time to 7.

Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as 'dressed up'

You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.

Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.

You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonalds.

Sleeping on the couch is a no-no.

You no longer take naps from noon to 6 p.m.

Dinner and a movie - The whole date instead of the beginning of one.

MTV News is no longer your primary source for information.

You go to the drugstore for Ibuprofen and antacids, not condoms and pregnancy test kits.

A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer 'pretty good stuff'.

You actually eat breakfast foods at breakfast time.

Grocery lists are longer than macaroni & cheese, diet Pepsi & ho-ho's

'I just can't drink the way I used to' replaces 'I'm never going to drink that much again'

Over 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.

Havoc: get rid of melting eq from acid blast, it is completely lame!

Acid blast does not melt eq. Acid breath, on the other hand, does. The damage description associated with the two is actually very similar, as well.

Acid blast:
Your acid blast mauls a citizen!

Acid breath:
Your blast of acid mauls a citizen!

See?
It's unlikely we'll change the breath spells to not melt eq, as that's simply a hazard of fighting those certain mobs.
