Talk:Test of the Acrobat

From A Tale in the Desert
Jump to navigationJump to search

Events/Gathering

I am unfamiliar with what normally happens with this Test as the tale progresses. Should we make a heading that has events/acro parties that occur nightly or that are specifically planned out? I know Queen's Retreat has a nightly acro party after a dig.

Something like that should go on the Current Events page. --Nipaeri 15:11, 2 January 2009 (EST)

Sample blue text and what to do/say

Thought this would be nice for people(me) that don't know much about acroing. I'll fill it up when ever I do some acroing. Feel free to add or say what each one means or what you should do if you get that text.

  • This is a good area, but the people in the distance are a distraction(1 in range)- Means you and your partner have to move farther away from other people before trying to acro.
  • Your student follows your move, but doesn't pick up anything new - You cannot teach this person again (either for 24 hrs or you reach the next facet teaching, ie. 14, 986, etc... needs verifying)
I'm yet to see evidence of the 24 hour thing. At <14 taught, you can learn up to 1 facet per move per teacher (and often less). At 14-980ish, it's up to 2. Above that number (unsure about the exact number. But it's 20*7*7, and 7 is a popular number...) you can learn up to 3 facets per teacher per move. If you get this, you can still teach other moves.--tlanthil
  • Your student doesn't follow your move - Try again.
  • You follow a bit of what (name) is showing you, but it's mostly a blur. Find a better teacher - You probably won't learn anything from this person. You should let them know they are a "blur" to you.
This is like any of the teacher quality messages (perfect, great, pretty good, blur, last resort). The better, the faster/better chance of learning. You should ideally let your partner know of what sort of teacher they are in all cases.--tlanthil
  • Your student doesn't seem to be paying attention. -
Hasn't done an acro move in the last 5(?) minutes. Even if you can't teach your partner anything, still make a move every few minutes so they can teach you. --tlanthil
