Balancing

July 2023 Niniko asked why he was being thrown off his horse when using charge and storm. I thought it was probably his riding skills but he did not have difficulties with other riding skill checks. He did some more puzzling and got back to me to say that it seemed to be a matter of balancing.

Niniko: I discovered that my getting flown from my horse problem was because I had 0 in balancing! so I got it to 25, and now the being flown message is no more after a storm/charge!

Niniko: It's mostly for the charge/storm I think? My bonus is only like 138, so you really don't need much to not get the message! Lemme scroll up too and paste exactly what the message was

Niniko: "You lose your precarious attachment to Djeeta the rose grey horse and go flying." and then I would most likely get dismounted and not be able to act awhile afterwards. This was at 0 balancing! Once I leveled up balancing, the message was no more and after testing charges/storms, I never got flung off anymore.

Niniko: Yee! It's such a minor thing, and no one knew what I was talking about, but it's probably because I'm still bwaby and don't have lots of skills put in at all!
