Information on inventory relief, via staff consolidation, efforts

-Anyone who does not agree with you is a troll
False. Only people who personally attack me and continue to bait responses from me are trolls. Disagreement itself is not necessarily trolling.

-Your wording of the majority of your posts is presented as facts
This is false. I do not present opinions as facts. Any appearance of this is never intended, and a polite request can clear it up.

-Nobody likes a know-it-all
I'm not a know-it-all (Or at least, it is not my intention to come off this way)

- You start off almost every post with trying to make the person you're quoting feel inferior
I'm sorry if something I said makes you feel inferior, but I do not do this, and I do not specifically start posts in such a way as to do this.

- You argue about everything and anything (even about whether you are arguing or not)
I can be argumentitive, but I do not argue about everything and anything. There's a difference between argument and discussion.

------

Almost every thread you post in ends up about you and how everyone is not understanding because we are in some way dumber than you.

While this IS about not being understood, it is NOT about anyone being "dumber" than me (which I have never, ever said). I have a neurological disability known as Aspbergers. What comes with it is extreme social difficulties and difficulty in expressing myself with clarity. I do not want to make anyone feel dumb, and I do not want to offend anyone. This simply comes about as I struggle to grasp everyday social nuances most of you take for granted. People like me are often highly intelligent but have difficulty expressing their thoughts to others.
(I'm almost sure it was a mistake now to say that, as I will probably become the butt of some kind of disability joke. But I felt like that had to come out.)

I have to admit, I generally cannot stand people with Aspbergers or Autism because every single one I have met thus far has easily gotten under my skin with their rude behavior.

Constantly debating in every thread is no exception. If you have a social disability, then let us help clear it up for you; we don't appreciate the way you're dealing with the topics. If you disagree, that's perfectly acceptable and you're more than welcome to post it. Same with if you agree, you're more than welcome to post it. However, do try to keep the posts to a minimum unless new information is added. And by new I don't mean a different way of looking at it, I mean actual new information, such as maybe Square Enix having just released information, or perhaps an article you stumbled across that would help prove your point further, etc.

With these kinds of topics there really isn't a whole lot to debate. You either like the idea, or you don't. If this topic was more open to discussion then debating would be acceptable, but here...

I'm just tryin' to help you out Alhanelem. If you are sincere in trying to get along with the community and not turn everyone against you I know you'll take my advice.

You can quote me and say FALSE! all you want. I'm not looking for your approval or disapproval on how I feel.

I won't stoop so low as to make fun of your disabilities so long as you don't use it as a crutch to act like an ass.

[SNK]

Summoner hasn't needed them any of them except maybe light for a long time

wut?

I'm just being realistic.

.................lol

By no means is it meant as an excuse, only as a bridge to better understanding. All I ask for is a little bit of patience, and of civility. Feel free to politely ask me to rephrase something or clarify a statement if you think I might be intending a different meaning than you've gathered, as this happens a lot. People like me have a very different thought process from the average person, so that is to be expected.

wut?

What isn't making sense to you with what you quoted?

With the advent of the empyrean armor, Summoner only needs a few things in a staff (only considering real existing staves), and a small number of them have a few optional wants as well.

-Cure potency (light staff)- the only elemental staff I regularly carry.
-Avatar attack and magic attack
-summoning magic skill is also nice

Things that are not required on a staff-
-Avatar perpetuation- If you have the empyrean set, an evoker's ring, and other perpetuation gear that you would wear anyway, you can easily negate perpetuation cost and use a staff that has none but has
-Healing MP: Does anyone really ever have to sit and rest anymore? There is so much MP recovery available in this game now that resting for MP is rare in my personal experience (Not to be taken as an absolute fact). I usually don't carry a pluto's staff around anymore on summoner because it is simply quite rare for me to ever need to rest.

Aspergers?

...Please don't end up like Rosina, mate. Just, don't.

That's all I'm going to say.

Don't know any Rosinas. Don't try to take this out of context or make it sound like something it isn't. We are reasonable, intelligent people who just suck terribly at social interaction aka interpersonal skills.

[Rearden]

Please do the intelligent thing then; when you disagree with something, state your piece and move on. It's okay to disagree, but the level you take it often derails threads and doesn't serve to move the topic any further.

In the case of this thread, we get that you don't agree with us, but you aren't SE, so arguing SE's point of view when SE has no point of view and in this case has actually admitted what they thought was a good idea wasn't, then it's time to move on.

In reply to my idea about adding obi effect to staves:

would be cool, to be sure, but now we're talking about combinging two items in different gear slots. That would eliminate the need for any of those items and allow you to wear a belt with completely different effects. Don't you think that might be taking it a little far? Don't get me wrong, though, because I like the idea, just saying.

Best case scenario you'd pick up some MAB and/or INT. Would adding 5MAB to the magian staves be overpowered? I doubt it.

Rather than just ratcheting up the +affinity on the staves all the way to lvl99, it'd be nice to vary the effects a little (like they did with the last update by adding -cast/recast time). Adding obi bonus sounds like a good, different effect.
