I want to remind everyone who wants to play on nox: only the account creation is region locked, meaning you can bypass it by having someone from the Nox accepted regions make an account for you, then using that account to log in.

Yes, its really dumb, but its how I got access to nox.

Hey I remember that dance, it was that two-person emote that random guy did with a couple of us while we were sitting outside the tofuhouse a couple days ago.

can confirm

(incidentally the wakfu animation, while tenuously connected to the game at best, is actually really really good!)

[Frumple]

Y'know, following that around a bit led me to the bamboo zombie one, which...

... the panda critters. It. It's actually milk. Like. Not booze. Actually, literally milk. It's not censorship, it's wakfu being bugnuts.

[Kaitol]

It used to be alcohol early in Dofus. They just changed it to milk and sort of... went with it. Really really went with it.

Wish they'd just said it was root beer like all their other "not" alcohol stuff honestly.

[Frumple]

No... no, I'm sorry. Alcohol loses in the face of zombie murdering milk. Regardless of why they changed, it is now the best change and should stay. If this is what censorship results in, it is an improvement.

Some useful info I have gathered about spell level mechanics.

Spells are not limited by level, but rather by experience.
You get enough experience to keep 6 spells at level cap
If you have more than 1/3 of your experience(more than 2 spells) invested in one element, further leveling costs twice as much in that tree
This means you could either get 6 spells by getting 2 from each of the 3 elements, 5 spells if you get 3 in one element and 2 from one or two other elements, or only 4 if all your spell experience is in one element.

Spell level boosts your damage and resistance to that element, here is the formula:
(1st highest spell LV * 0.30)+(2nd highest spell LV * 0.35)+(3rd highest spell LV * 0.05)+(4th highest spell LV * 0.01)+(5th highest spell LV * 0.02)= Elemental Mastery LV/elemental damage and resist boost.

From this info you can see that you get greatly diminishing returns on investing in more than two spells per element. This allows tri-element builds to be viable while keeping single-element builds' power in check.

It is usually a better idea to have 3 spells from you main element and 2 spells from a single other element to get the most out of a build that will be able to deal with enemies with a high resistance to an element. Your 4th spell in a single element has to be a a major game-changer to make up for the loss of two spells and all that lost elemental damage and resistance. Single-element builds are viable, just much more limited in their usefulness and versatility.

I want to check this out but the region locks seem complicated.

As someone in the US what loops am I gonna have to jump through to play with you all?

You'll be just fine. Create an account and go! You are in the US region anyway so you get to play on Nox (where everyone but me is) by default.
Have fun!

[UristMcDwarf]

Wow... This is actually pretty good!

So since it seems i am the only one playing an ecafilp i have made an introductory post to ecas, spoiler'd for size.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Ecas are the gamblers of wakfu, their damage and survivability depends on luck and managing it by taking "calculated" risks: managing the turns in which you will shine and the turns in which you will feel useless is what can make or break a good eca.

Ecaflips have access to three elements:
   -Fire: ranged, high single target damage with potential for extremely powerful multi hitting critical hits... Or poor damage. Has no melee attack except one which costs a WP.

   -Water: This is the utility and non random tree of ecaflip, it has a little bit of everything, but the main highlights are fleas that steal hp.

   -Earth: I did not try it a lot but its mainly a short ranged damage tree with as usual the potential for stunning amount of damage... Or not.
 
Passive skill breakdown:
   -Ecaflip Die: Roll a dice at every single turn to get increased fire damage and critical hit% (and AP/MP if you are on a really lucky streak).

   -Ecaflip tarot: It goes with the earth branch but has a lot of potential effects, from boosting your damage, healing you, giving you AP/MP to the complete opposite, ie reducing your HP to 1, healing the foes or rooting you, all depending on what cards you draw. Please note that Eca that skill this can be frowned upon by groups because of the potentially damaging for the team draws.

   -Flealine army:The passive of the water branch, each time you use a flea to deal damage, your water damage is increased. You have to keep doing water damage to keep the bonus from turn to turn making it somewhat impractical if you intend to multi element.

   -Ecaflip precision: Allows you to do a sort of critical hit (which can and will stack with normal criticals) based on what portion of the body you hit.

   -Paws off: Foes that get too close have a chance to get pushed back 1 cell and foes within melee range have increased critical failure chance.

Skills breakdown:
   -Double or quilts: the last tick of damage you did has a 50% of being doubled or being healed completly upon casting. Can make or break a tough fight...

   -Feline leap: jump one cell and gain increased damage (up to 50%!) for the rest of the turn.

   -Black bow Meow: A pretty useless invocation (very squishy) but if you take care of it it can potentialise the tarot or ecafilp die.

   -Roll again: Allows you to throw another die or draw another card for 1 WP (with a chance to get it back increasing up to 50%).

   -Cat tree: A very potent invocation which i have not fully grasped the use yet, but basically each time you are hit you have a chance to teleport back to your cat tree. Costs 2WP though.

Common builds:
   -Fire: A Mono element build focused on dealing the highest possible amount of single target damage (i do from 100 dmg per turn lvl 40 to as much as 600! Note that this is a possibility it has happened only once with crits on a 7 from craps and D6 rolling again 3 times with precision bonus damage...). They usually invest a AP and a range then critical hits then intelligence, passive Eca Die obviously then precision.

   -Fire/Earth: A very damage oriented build. I did not try it so i won't be of much help. However if you followed you'll see that the two have great synergy since earth covers fire greatest weakness (lack of point blank) and the opposite. Eca die and Tarot will be mandatory as well as Precision.

   -Water: Pure water works because of the survavibility and utility its a somewhat slow paced safe (randomness free) farming build where you will not have to eat bread often because of the self heals and you have high amount of utility along with the ability to heal your teammates. Invest into AP, Range and then i don't know, crits? Passive flealine army first then precision.

   -Fire/Water: I read a lot of mixed reaction to this build but this is what i am aiming for. Basically you combine fire's ability to do loads of ranged damage with two skills from the water tree (flea and rough tongue). This allows you to do a little healing as well as team buffing on the side during the turns where you can't hit or adapt to what your team needs between full fire/full heal or a bit of each. It is however gated by poor equipment choices at later levels (130+, or so i've heard) and starts being possible only by level 60/70. These invest AP/MP/Range/Crits/Intelligence. Eca die, Precision Feline leap are the passive i am aiming for.

There, hope i sparked some interest on what i consider a very interesting class. And if i did enough that you consider playing an eca, good luck! You'll definitely need it.

Edit: Earth ecas are short ranged and capable of point blank attacks, not melee (As opposed to fire long ranged few point blank attacks). I had it wrong.

I played a bunch of the Dopple Dopple Revolution game and recorded 20 of the times I've played to see if there is a pattern I could crack.
I couldn't find any pattern, but I did learn that whatever code they're using for it is malicious. At least I came out with 7 emotes, which apparently sell for 10k each.
Here's the thing, for those interested:

I got the impression during the two ecaflips I tried, that they really shine at later levels. They kind of need a lot of skillpoints invested to tilt the odds in their favor. In the early game at least earth is all over the place, and water's damage is kind of low.

This is true.
Basically, you need those passive maxed. So before 21 where you can max your "main" passsive skill your damage is kind of meh.
Water is especially lackluster early because you need to cast fleas to stack the damage bonus and with low AP/Range/MP/Skill level it takes a really long time but later on you can be done in two turns and start to shine (the life stealing fleas are great, and the skill that allows you to pounce on foes is awesome damage).

Earth gets its randomness reduced a bit by levelling tarot and the ability to draw another card in case of crippling effects from bad draws. To be fair i never tried an earth eca so i can't really provide good insight on how they work, if it's anything like dofus, its early levels are rough because your main damage ability can also heal the enemy and you don't have the mobility to engage kiting foes.

Fire is okay at lower levels but gets really great when you start stacking some dmg and critical hits. Multi hitting (x3) 200 dmg crits from Die Alright is bound to be spectactular and i did it by level 30.

I'm having tons of fun playing my fire ecaflip right now and i'm still kinda low level (46) so it's all up to taste i guess.
