1. Make that Book of Dark Rituals exchangeable using tokens, probably 600~1000 tokens/book.
2. Ping indicator, show one's ping when hovering cursor over that 'connection indicator' located on top right of your game's window.
3. Show the true amount of hp for each player.
Book, ping indicator, hp bar.

Each bar of hp is actually 4 points of health
Actually it's not. Each bar is split up into 41 segments.

O.o where do you get the information from?
I do realize that losing 1 bar of health (shown when taking damage, you drop 1 bar) can not necessarily take away even 1/2 a bar in the GUI.Technically I assumed it was so.

Sit on top of the regenerating blocks in the advanced training hall (i used the crystal ones, idk why) and see how long it takes to kill you with 5 bars (proto armor).
A goddamn long time.

I don't think that's how it works. Anderzej explains it here:

Each bar is worth ...41? I always assumed it was 12 because of the same test you did - it takes three to go down to a half-pip.

Well, it took me 205 hits
Well, it took me 205 hits from the crystal regenerating blocks before I died, with proto armor on. (approximately 10 minutes worth, and I set it so I was being hit by alternating regens) That's a couple more times than 12.

Thanks for clarifying me some misconceptions. Though no one knows how much health is there for sure (maybe 100, 200), but yeah, thanks for the info on the ping. My ping is terrible D:

2. 4 bars < 50ping, 3 bars < 100 ping, 2 bars < 200 ping, 3 [? 1 you meant?] bars > 200 ping, anything more than 300 and you are a dead man.
That's true, since I've never seen anything above 1 bar in my entire Sk career (2 bars drop back to one in several seconds, having 3 or 4 bars means I'm lagging like hell that visually it also proves that point)
I can still play on 300ms, but having one bar means your ping is 200~something like 2000. Having a ping indicator will help a lot, many games have that function. This can then tell me not to touch this game when I have 400ms+ ping.
BTW, /ping any SK website gives me time outs T_T

Derp, I thought you were talking about the spikes lol. You're definitely right about that, assuming that that's the smallest increment (and I think it is, considering how damage numbers in LD correspond to damage in the field).
1. Yes
2. 4 bars < 50ping, 3 bars < 100 ping, 2 bars < 200 ping, 3 bars > 200 ping, anything more than 300 and you are a dead man.
3. Each bar of hp is actually 4 points of health. Generally the game helps round up to the next half bar. So sometimes you have 4 points of health = 1 bar, you can revive someone, but you can't revive someone if you have 3 points of health.
