We are? I thought we were still talking... Oh, I missed an update, yep we're in combat now. Man, hadn't realized we were several pages ahead of where I was last on this.

Convince them to not join us!
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING CAN GO WRONG!

I like your style. +1.
+1
+` and +1 to old style as well, new style is just not fitting imo.
Agreed. Stick figures fit TWoOtA for the same reason they fit OotS: Both are lighthearted and enjoyable, even if they've evolved past their simple roots.

So, um... Here's my question, regarding tactical combat. Does anybody remember what the penalty is for using a medium range weapon at long range? Cause I'm thinking, since we know that Wisps have ranged attacks, and that since we know their attacks are medium range, if we could just stay at long range and pepper them with bullets and take advantage of the penalty they have and just wear them down. I'm also not sure if this plan would benefit from or suffer from a switch to tactical combat, as the consensus seems to be right now.

Can we initiate a spirit duel at will?  Because if the battle with Yaos is any indication, we are overpowered in a spirit duel.  Also, spirit duels allow us forumites to have fun cameos.  The only downside is that they appear to completely annihilate the loser.

No, I'm not suggesting spirit dueling a bunch of wisps. :P And spirit dueling Proxxy would probably be overly destructive.  But I would not be averse to spirit dueling that big wisp.

I imagine we would have to fight something that has an active Soul Star.

But yeah, let's Spirit Duel Proxxy. Annihilate her soul itself and wipe her from the Warrens!

Is there a place where you can view all of the pictures only so I can catch up with the story without skimming through 400 pages?

I think we still have ambitions of befriending Proxxy, and annihilating her does not further that goal.  But this can definitely be plan B.

The closest thing to that is Monk12's unofficial index (see the link in the OP).

And if we go for the convincing the wisps not to join us, the insanity penalty will just become a +20 most likely.
If so, then our next course of action should be phrasing the request in such an odd and colnvoluted way that FFS gets confused in which direction insanity should apply.

But then FFS would probably apply the consequences of our action backward as well, defeating the purpose.

Unless the real purpose is obviously something mostly unrelated to the wisps, of course.  Then it could work.

Or we could not do that and instead attack them since we're in combat. There's probably a penalty to trying such while fighting them anyhow, FFS stated as much earlier when I asked about the viability of a Diplomancer path.

...Yes.  Killing them by attacking for damage is obviously what we should be doing in the next update.  However, talking about that is boring, and we have a long wait.

Actually, I'm not quite clear on why tactical combat would be any better than regular combat.  Someone want to clarify?

We do set amounts of damage. We attack first. Enemy range is clearly defined. We can be given proper time(and angle) to guard enemies' attacks.
Some enemies might have advantages during tactical combat though.

I still like the idea of eating our enemies, and therefore I think we should shoot for the 'Star Warrior' Class.
