  1. I play a lot of Norns, and I'm heavy into their culture. I too have a Norn Thief, who considers himself a follower of Otter. You can be a thief and a Norn, and its quite easy to set that record straight. Like your idea he is a shady and lovable guy, but he's also a pirate raider. Norns can have 'gentle giant' traits, but that doesn't really speak for the norm. Remember that above all, hunting is a high virtue for the Norn, as is testing one's self against the savagery of nature. Norn can be very violent in those moments, showing teeth and claws if the beast within them begins to manifest. The more 'in line with current civilization' Norns are known to be good natured, but there are enough Sons of Svanir to show they can also be callous, cold, and unforgiving. In short, there's nothing about a Norn that isn't manifest in other races as well. Embracing of technology and the asura have a saying that 'the size of a brain is also relative the size of the intellect' which puts Norn ahead of their own curves. This is also reflected by some Norn being ready to pick up the engineering arts as well. So honestly? Your ideas are already good. I've been in plenty of Norn culturally focused guilds, and these things are not so much outside the box as they may seem. Thief is a catch all term, much like warrior is. It covers a very broad base of things.
  2. I do so love my elementalists, but my biggest problem is that I am exhausted from smashing a thousand buttons in very precise patterns in an ever shifting fast paced environment; Meanwhile at the same time, having to an entirely different order of button mashing only to die to someone who roll dodged through it all and was able to do enough damage through any defense we can muster with less effort than it took to actually to prepare the defense. Engineers are a very close second, but they have the ability to escape FAR greater than we do in nearly every build they muster. I consider the elementalist as a lost design philosophy. It's escaped and loose and I have been in the acceptance stage of grief for years now. I find the question of balance exhausting. Shaving percents of a second until there's nothing left. As buff dispensers were decent, but so very easily thwarted. I'm also kinda exhausted of the fact that other professions get some really nifty and new takes on their roles, and we get Tempest (a line that pretty much gives a little extra edge as an auramancer) and then we get Weaver, which to me just seemed like someone dared to ask the question: "But, what would happen if a Tempest moved to the front line instead of the mid line?" Or we can sit on our staffs and be absolutely bored.
  3. I've been experiencing bugged missions, that knock me out of the mission at the very end of them. I think it has something to do with positioning and how the script loads. I have no real data other than that. Fighting Caudecus in his home in the Lake Doric instance being the roughest one. I'll fight him for a very long time (the mission is quite long IMO) and then upon defeat it will disconnect me from the instance. This is very frustrating. But, there are more. In other missions, like the one I just finished in Glint's Lair "Crystalline Memories" I defeated the the Facet and at the end of the fight I move to the large Memory Crystal. While it is still talking, I move to Big Snaff. And boom, disconnect. Same thing fighting Balthazar in the mission in the Riverlands. Defeat him, and boom disconnect. Have to start it all over again. Then, later.. in the underworld you speak to the judge with Neneh and if you don't go to the judge before you speak to Palawa Joko it kicks you again. And then finally, in the fight with Balthazar in 'Beast of War' I believe is the name of the mission, it kicked me 4 times before I had to complete it teaming someone else and using their instance to forward my character's story. Very very very frustrating. I use the 64 bit client, and I run a Radeon RX 480 on Windows 10. I also get disconnections periodically while just simply running the client. Updating drivers does not seem to affect anything. The odd bit, is that it also disconnects me from discord as well. At no other time do these things happen. Recreating these disconnects are easy, but I've lost all patience due to the sheer number of times they occur. I've no desire to replay any of the instanced content in Path of Fire until I have confirmation that these issues are at least looked at.
