well i have been thinking a lot about this whole race thing
i've been asking for one for just about 3 months now
and i've listened to lots of the complaints about it
and also the pwness about it

my idea for this race is
i think it would be neat
if once you become this race, you can rereinc back into that race without
needing another vial just to do a rereinc
the randomness of it dropping now and with jes only once a boot
it makes it super hard to get.
You dont really gain anything by being able to rereinc back into arch after
you are already the race, but alais if you reinc into another race
first or whatever other rule
an admin like vor can come up with you loose that option to rereinc
back into that race
i think possibly this would make people who are that race more
inclined to xp more since they do have
an option at a later date to rereinc back into their guild as arch without
having to spend a year trying to get another vial

I've gotten one response which was quite catching as well
if you are allowed to rereinc back into arch without needing another vial
possibly adding a 3-5m gold charge in it as well?
something other than waiting to get another jes vial would make it
pleasant please.
thanks

please respond

As it is now, once you are a celestial mage, the only way to reinc
back into it is to obtain another vial. IMO, this discourages
people from joining celestial mage in the first place. There is a
lot of cost and effort necessary for a one-time, temporary boost.

I talked to Falcore about this, and I was thinking of making it more
like gnoll. Once you have already been celestial mage, you could
pay some npc ~3-5m gold (or whatever amount is deemed appropriate)
to get another vial, so you can re-reinc back into celestial mage
later. This would provide some degree of difficulty, as well as
providing a gold sink that many feel the game needs.

If the vial was changed to be more like the gnoll scroll, after you
paid the npc for the vial, you would be the only person who would be
allowed to use the vial. So you could not pay the npc and then sell
the vial to someone else. Also, there would be the potential for
the npc to have a time limit, so that you could only buy a new vial
every so often...perhaps once a month?

If you want to reinc into celestial mage, you need a vial filled
with demon essense, right? And if you are currently a celestial
mage, do you not already have that demon essense within you?

So, why not have an npc that you could pay the abovementioned gold
to, to strap you into a machine, forcibly remove the demon essense
from your body, thereby destroying your body and leaving your
reincarnated soul with a vial filled with your pre-loved demon
essense. Oh, and the violence of the procedure would double your
reinc tax for that reinc. Small price to pay under the
circumstances, and it's equivalent to rereincing into Gnoll, without
being too close to thematically identical.
