My melee weapon (a Spear) apparently didn't appear during a Hunt. According to the messages I was getting during the fight, I was using my fists and I should consider equipping myself with a melee weapon.
After the fight, I checked my Gear and the Spear was present and the Equipped Items section.

This means she is only equipped with a raged weapon. That's an error, and I'll get it fixed.
Thanks

I have an Ally (FB Friend) equiped with a chemistry set (+5).
My Intellect is 19 without any bonuses.
I see no increased Intellect for Checks.
Cossack message decrypting or mummy clues for example.
(I think I sometimes see it reduced but, I'm not positive so i'll skip reporting that and start watching for it. )

Hi there
If you take your ally out of the team and refresh the page, does your intellect drop accordingly?

Sacrificing allies is a big step. As you level your Social Standing, the people you used to associate with are no longer appropriate for your station in society. Either you expand your lodge to accommodate those people of a lower station, or you sacrifice them as you move up and recruit new allies.
There are typically new allies available every few points of Social Standing you gain, up to SS of 50, when things slow down a little.
Allies providing cash are able to do so, even if not in your team, all other allies need to be in your team to provide their benefits. It should be noted that allies are very handy to begin with, but as time goes by they are quickly outclassed by your Facebook friends. Their real benefit then becomes their willingness to take a bullet for you and get you out of trouble.
If you are still at a level to re-recruit those allies, they don't don't bear a grudge and can be used over and over as meat shields. If you've risen in society such that you won't meet them again, only sacrifice them if you need to make space for better allies in your pool.
I hope that helps a little when deciding whether to let your allies take the fall for you.
Simon

Out of balance
I'm at level 14.
Taking adventure: Farmer Found Slaughtered
Investigation goes well and then I find *dun dun duu* a skeleton.
Which I kill with one strike and won't even feel fear.
Then: You put down the beast, saving the countryside.
You receive 28 experience for completing this adventure.
28 exp for this? No way |

Adding and removing on the Allies page makes no difference however, if I go to the Status page, then it adjusts.
Will test its use and update if it doesn't show as being used now.

| Just got wounded and on checking my Status page it tells me it will be three hours before my wound status is updated. Does the time to recover increase as you get to higher levels ? I've got the lodge upgrade that knocks one hour off the recovery time, does this mean I should be waiting four hours or has the -1 hour glitched to become +1 hour ? |

Yeah - that's not right at all.
I'll get that altered. Sounds like the -1 become a plus, but I can't understand why that might have happened.
We'll look into it, sorry about that.

| I just lost a ton of money. When I was going to purchase some items I got an error page and retried the action. All the money was spent but I didn't get all the items. |

Getting the following error (for about 2 hours now) when I try to hit the Allies page:
Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in /home/mklausmeier/pinnacleonlinegames.com/rippers/allies.php on line 127

another typo, in the Quest with the meteor swarm...
"There is a low drone in the air, followed by a sharp crack, and a bright ball of searing hot like streaks from out of rolling clouds,"
I believe this should be...

Is anyone else getting this? Tried two different computers and Mozilla/Explorer... no joy.

The healing power of sacrificial allies ...
There I was out hunting, and a Pig Hybrid knocked me down to 2 health ... I thought I could still take him, so I soldiered on ...
He hits me again, for 78 damage ... and one of my allies sacrifices themselves so that I don't take the blow ...
And I'm on 78 health ... I'm sure it's not meant to work like that ...
