Let's play Triangle Wizard! Before round one!
« on: September 07, 2010, 09:50:04 pm »

It's time for another LP that surely die but I'm doing anyways!
Triangle WIZARD

I will be playing with permadeath and will start a new mage every time I die! Fun!

I just need a name, school, and race to create the character but if this LP is going to work I need a good free screenshot program, nothing fancy with automatic uploads or anything, just push button, screenshot saved to target directory. /subtle hint

Cobra "Jeremy" Jones, Pyromancy, Mummy. If there are no mummies, Badass. If there are no badasses, a mere human will suffice.

Chim Chiminy, Infernal Disciple, Nymph. Barring ID, anything with a decent summon spell that's not marshal. If nymph's no good, go with angel. Or maybe fey.

Nymphs are hardcore, though. They're slow, but they regen all spells, not just the ones you've managed to nab up regen powerups for. Makes 'em rock at generalizing, from what I've seen, and they can hammer out high level spells right at the start without much concern.

Angels are just badass. They fly and move quick, which gives some major advantages, and unlike fey, can actually take maybe one or two hits :P

Fey are fast, and fly as well, but their real trick is basically adding 15% damage to most spells -- they ignore 15% of the resistance of whatever they hit. Makes specialization really easy, since you don't really need to diversify damage types. And the speed, again, is huge. Unfortunately, they have the HP of a flea. Getting hit can wreck them quick.

I found this on the classes.

Knowing nothing about the game, I picked the most interesting-sounding class/race combo I could think of off that list:  "Edgar, the friendly neighbourhood Nymph Dweomer Caster."

I stealthily hid the link to the game in the game name. ;D

How do I change the capture hotkeys for Greenshot? It works well but I can't always be hitting alt-print screen in a realtime game.

Another double post!
I can't get it to recognize my command, if you can figure out how the line would be can you post it?
