Long time no see...

As I've had a short period where I didn't play, I reinstalled the computer and much else, I came to forget about this blog a bit. So now as I walked by, I will write something much like an update!

First of all, I have been working a lot on Espada lately. It has seen many good improvements during the past week. I've change some of the hardcoded parts into being more smart and logical, added a new arena mode and much much else.

A changelog has been created for myself and my two good old users. This will help me track down possible bugs easier if something happens to anything new in Espada. It will also serve as a nice "this is what I have done for you" list for my users.

When it comes to Akumu the character, he has seen some pretty neat improvement. He became secretary and gained GR10 after returning. He is also the new combat head in the Wardens and took over the Savages clan, a clan that he have changed completely, from structure to tasks and so on.

Currently I'm guiding a lot just to get something out of my time of doing nothing. This should make it easier to get all the stuff I want Akumu to have. We might see him swinging around a flame or lightning based glaive some time soon, instead of his current ice glaive.

I am still waiting on all the classleads. Mainly Trailblazing, Warding and Toxins, all of which will make combat a bit more interesting for me. Another salve toxin, double metrazol being possible to use when I target a limb with qjab, more resistance against an element, autoreheat which means yet another salve stack and perhaps a tad more damage, thrust might become useful and so on and so on... Can't wait!

Well, I think that is enough for now. I will continue to improve Espada until there is NOTHING to do on it. Something that can be almost impossible as the game itself evolve and so does my ideas and thoughts, believe it or not! haha
