Test should have fresh copies of folks again, and I've got some new grandfathering mechanics there to hopefully resolve issues people were reporting. I've also changed the requirements for 150+ circle so that 2nd Supernatural won't outpace 1st Supernatural. 1st Supernatural will require 10 ranks per circle past 150, and 2nd Supernatural will require 8 ranks per circle past 150.
Khri are back on global preview, since the learning/unlearning tests seem to be working fine and there is little need to make folks run around relearning stuff again.
If you had any previous concerns about grandfathering, or are just curious what the new grandfathering looks like (should be about the same really, unless it messed up the for you before), please be sure to at least log in to Test and take a look at your skills.

Looks a bit off for 121 - i have an updated thief calc with the latest info if you want to try it. http://matoom.github.io/calculators/thiefcalc.html
Edit: But i guess you're more interested in the grandfathering results. Also noticed that your arcana is higher than your other grandfathered supernaturals. I wonder if arcana counts as a supernatural requirement for us?

The 2nd supernatural grandfathering looks a bit weird: comparing my thief the other data in this thread, I'm getting different percentages. The IM and 1st supernatural are both consistently 125% though.

Re: Fresh copy in Test on 01/12/2014 02:22 PM CST
Right now I'm basking in the glory of thinking my grandfathering with this copy is finally correct.
Give me a bit to see if that wears off and I'll try to figure out if what you guys posted is right too.
I will say at a really quick glance, everyone looks right no. Yam's are harder to tell obviously, but your IM looks exactly right. I'm not sure about your 1/2nd supers tho.

GM's said I would lose all the ranks in the skills being grandfathered. I would assume that it shouldn't have an effect.

Re: Fresh copy in Test on 01/12/2014 07:21 PM CST
Yeah it looks like people are still getting numbers all over the place for their 2nd super...
Yam got something like circle +20%.
DYERA7's got circle +230%, heh.
Tigerclaw got circle + 4%.
I got circle +1%
Another super huge awesome thief I know got circle +2%
But, everyone's numbers for IM and 1st super look right on at circle +25%.

Well, they may look all over the place to you, but they're actually all correct. They are all scaling the way it is intended to scale, and people at the same circle are getting exactly the same results across the board.

<< As long as its is actually the same math that Barbs got, I guess I can't really argue with it because whats done is done.
I don't agree. This is exactly why i brought it up. I'm not saying that the forumulas are putting out wrong numbers, i just don't think we should be using the same math because the requirements are not the same.
Now that we officially know our requirements i have enough evidence to present my case:
http://forums.play.net/forums/DragonRealms/Dragon%20Realms%203.1%20Test/Thieves/view/366
We should not be treated the same as Barbarians when we're not the same. I don't have the full GF data at my disposal right now, but just based on the relative circle requirements we're not getting the same results as Barbarians.
Any thoughts? Am i making any sense here?

It is actually the same, but Ric swaped the 1st/2nd super to 10/8 at 151 and up instead of 8/10. But its the same amounts. I think it's actually better this way.
My point was I can finally see what they did for 2nd super.
The higher circle you are the less bonus you get on top of the circle req.
That's excrement from a bull.
I'm amazed that barbarians let it happen 13 months ago, but it did, so I guess I just have to eat it and smile like I love it.

<< Except that the circle req for Barbs at 170 is 660 not 530.
Was there a ninja fix in Barbarian reqs that no one is aware of?
Based on the official notes: http://forums.play.net/forums/DragonRealms/The%20Barbarians/Game%20Master%20and%20Offical%20Announcements/view/195
Inner Fire 1 2 2 3 3 8 (or maybe 10?)
Which makes 0-150:
(1 * 10) + (2 * 20) + (2 * 40) + (3 * 30) + (3 * 50) = 370
And first scenario with 8 at 150+ (2.5 * 3):
8 * 20 = 160, total 160 + 370 = 530
The second scenario with 10 at 150+:
10 * 20 = 200, total 200 + 370 = 570

<< That's excrement from a bull.
Hehe, i was aware of the risks of it being wrong but it was still nice to see the correlations, which obviously weren't linear.
