genuine question not a joke
yes
no
I do believe gravity exists in the AO world so probably
Okay, so—the way I interpret fall damage is this: you would take damage if your character didn’t intentionally direct their aura downwards to swiftly slow themselves down. It’s actually the same way they can high-jump. They use the recoil of their own aura to prevent injury, in a similar manor to how they use their aura to block attacks.
the level 1 jaw pirate hovering down to the ground after worthlessly t jumping at you:
it is it’s just not in the game just like how you freeze in the air when charging attacks or whatever
high jump isn’t canon btw it’s just for gameplay
At this point I’ve stopped listening to Vetex completely on what is and isn’t canon, because his canon is horseplop.

i mean logically it makes no sense for you to be able to jump 10000 feet into the air for no reason and then take no fall damage also flying in the air while charging attacks makes 0 logical sense lmao vetex legit wanted to remove t jumps because they’re illogical tho personally i like all this gameplay wise
Wrong
the contrast between insane vetex hate and insane vetex glaze is truly astonishing
vetex hate is unwarranted
vetex glaze is deserved

the game has flaws, even vetex has flaws (he is a human which people tend to forget), and despite that he deserves some damn respect

I believe Vetex once said that in-game logic isn’t the same as lore logic so we do take fall damage(at least canonically since the player should be taking his time descending and ascending the mountain thing)

I think rather than him separating the “canon” AO from the “not canon” AO, he should just embrace all the shenanigans. It would make the lore cooler and easier to follow anyways.
I like to imagine the canon is that we’re a complete and utter menace. We woke up one day, a week later, we beat Shura. Two weeks later, we beat Iris, an anomalous prodigy with a lost magic. Like a month later, we beat a Ravenna Noble who was likely trained by tutors and their own father. Then, another month or so later, we infiltrate Fort Talos, and kill Ravenna’s most esteemed and renown general. Then like, 3 months later after starving in the mines, we beat up and defeat Calvus. Both times (Argos and Calvus), we’re injured, but it’s not something we can’t heal in like… a week.
So using the in-game time, I’m pretty sure we did allat in 6 or so months. I think.
