      My Arx thoughts & prayers as someone who has very little of the experiences the rest of ya’ll have but I wanted to contribute something to this thread.

      • I would kinda like a @sheet that was just stats/skills/abilities no muss, no fuss. The demographic stuff is aight, but I feel like a simple sheet is always nice just for quick reference.
      • Would be cool to have knacks display on the main sheet without a need for @knacks. Using my character as an example, he has a Command+Leadership knack, so some kind of * or something next to his leadership skill might be a nice small visible notation that there’s more here than meets the eye.
      • Agree with people talking about equalizing skill costs. Maybe everything should be on the same level of combat skills for better XP balance?
      • Would love to see knack information on the website with the rest of the sheet information.
      • EDIT: would also love to see Domain skill information on the website. My dude has Income and that isn’t displayed on the website-based stat area.

          @Jennkryst Yeah unfortunately the game is great but the documentation ain’t.

            My incendiary XP opinion is that the survival skill should be dunked in gasoline so it can be lit on fire so that it can die in a fire and then we can scoop out the ashes and split them into two different skills or maybe just nuke the combat portion entirely and make up the difference in save checks and then make the survivor Not A Combat Skill and then it can sit in the corner and think about what it’s done.

            Maybe we can call it “Stability” or something, and have it govern your agility skill.

            That said, I totally agree. I want to be sturdy in a fight without suddenly being an amazing expert at what berries are edible in the desert or to see a wisp of cloud moving against the wind with my elf eyes.

              @Solstice Yeah and conversely I wanted Tikva to be a competent wilderness scout and wasn’t really angling to have her be the amazing unkillable ping pong ball. That was a lot of XP to be able to tell people obnoxious facts about deer poop.

                        Funny story. I was actually chatting with @Rucket last night about this. It was way too late. I couldn’t remember what they were called. I said “I want to call them +kinks, but I know that’s not right.”

                        That’s a whole 'nother game 😑

                                      To get back on topic…

                                      What is this ‘survival is combat’ thing? Because that might mean I am not entirely helpless and that sounds peachy keen.

                                      … but also still, someone teach me all of the things about game, I am a dumb thot who is still only halfway through the bb.

                                      AND SPEAKING OF THE BB, I got to the Pianoforte post last night. Sackbuts are good to go, yeah? Definitely middle age/renaissance…

                                        @Jennkryst I think it helps you resist being knocked unconscious or dying when taking damage.

                                        Like, idk, surviving.
