==Overview==
[[has default form::Form:GuildAbility| ]]
Khri (pronounced 'Kree') is a group of [[Thief]] Abilities that entail heightened concentration to increase awareness and body control.


#REDIRECT [[:Category:Khri]]
*Khri is considered an in-game secret, but recent changes to Simutronics Forum policies allow it to be discussed openly on the Forums.

*Khri has previously been referred to as "cookies" to disguise the existance or naming of Khri.

*Each Tree is taught by an individual guild leader. Subtlety is taught by [[Crow]]. Finesse is taught by [[Ivitha]]. Potency is taught by [[Kalag the Sly]].

*The term "Khri" is used for both singular and plural.

*Khri have an initial start up cost that ranges from 8-20 [[concentration]], then pulse for 2-5 concentration for the duration of the Khri.

*Special Khri (denoted by an [S]) have a larger start up cost, but do not pulse concentration. Their effect is usually more immediate, but instead have longer downtimes.

*All Khri can be stacked together. There is no extra concentration cost for stacking multiple Khri at once.

*You can start as many Khri as you have [[concentration]] for. The more Khri you have up, the heavier the drain on your concentration is.

*Kneeling or sitting (both have equal effect) while starting a Khri lowers the amount of skill required to start it. This will let you start Khri that you lack enough skill to start while standing.

*Using DELAY to start a Khri lowers the maximum amount of skill needed to cap it. This will make Khri more potent as well as increasing their duration.

*Khri are broken up into 4 difficulty tiers that are based on their concentration use.

*Starting multiple Khri at once has a skill check.

==Syntax==
Khri are abilities you can learn from Guild Leaders. To see what khri you know simply type KHRI by itself.

===Starting a khri===
There are a few ways and options for how to start khri:
*KHRI start <khriname> - Starts the khri immediately.
*KHRI <khriname> - Starts the khri immediately.
*KHRI delay <khriname> - Starts the khri after a brief delay, but will enhance the ability in most cases.

If you are unable to start a particular khri due to it being too difficult, you can kneel/sit/lie down to make it easier. Even when you are able to start a particular khri while standing, you may find that starting it sitting/kneeling still enhances the power of the ability.
Most khri when started will slowly drain concentration. Some khri will instead take a chunk of concentration up front without any subsequent drain.

===Stopping a khri===
Khri will end naturally after some period of time determined by your skill and the difficulty of the khri. They might also end if you no longer have the concentration to power them. If you want to end a khri manually you can:
*KHRI stop - Will end all khri.
*KHRI stop <khriname> - Will end just the specified khri.

Once a khri has ended it will be on a cooldown for a period of time. This can range from 5 seconds to 3 minutes based on your skills and the difficulty of the khri. Khri that do not continually drain concentration cannot be stopped, but generally the effects of those khri are instantaneous.

===Combination khri===
Some combinations of khri will add in additional effects called combination khri. The name of the combination can also be used to start all associated khri without having to to type them all out by name. Typing KHRI by itself will let you know of any combinations you can perform.

===Misc khri commands===
There are a few additional commands associated with khri that add additional functionality:
*KHRI check - Will disply which khri are running, and which are on cooldown.
*KHRI meditate - Can be used to increase the learning rate of any active khri.
*KHRI meditate - When no khri are active it will reduce any cooldowns.
*KHRI help - Will bring up this information to read again.

==Khri Combinations==

;[[Khri Secure|Secure]]
- Used to activate: [[Khri Focus|Focus]], [[Khri Safe|Safe]], [[Khri Sight|Sight]]<br>
- Additional Effects: Under the effect of security something about the Thief's unwavering concentration and extremely enhanced eyesight allows them to occasionally avoid a fatal error in trap handling.

;[[Khri Speed|Speed]]
- Used to activate: [[Khri Avoidance|Avoidance]], [[Khri Plunder|Plunder]], [[Khri Flight|Flight]]<br>
- Additional Effects: While under the effects of this combo you may randomly catch, and throw back, a weapon thrown at you.

;[[Khri Spar|Spar]]
- Used to activate: [[Khri Strike|Strike]], [[Khri Steady|Steady]], [[Khri Elusion|Elusion]]<br>
- Additional Effects: Boosts [[Light Thrown]] and [[Heavy Thrown]] weapon skills. While using this combo all weapon skills except [[Slings skill|Slings]] are boosted.

;[[Khri Skulk|Skulk]]
- Used to activate: [[Khri Darken|Darken]], [[Khri Dampen|Dampen]], [[Khri Shadowstep|Shadowstep]]<br>
- Additional Effects: Further improving the Thief's abilities, the Skulk combination also allows the Thief to sneak in any urban location as quickly as they would move unhidden. Sneaking in rural areas has been known to occasionally improve, but is not as reliable. Also prevents the Thief from being located.

;[[Khri Prescience|Prescience]]
- Used to Activate: [[Khri Sensing|Sensing]], [[Khri Serenity|Serenity]], [[Khri Sagacity|Sagacity]]<br>
- Additional Effects: Through ultimate awareness of their surroundings and a mind which blocks out disturbances, the Thief notices out of place things quicker, can instantly notice the presence of hidden or invisible intruders, and can even do so where they are [[Khri Sensing|Sensing]]. Lastly, the Thief who discovered this combination noticed that they seemed particularly adept at avoiding those pesky guards that day.

;[[Khri Cunning|Cunning]]
- Used to Activate: [[Khri Hasten|Hasten]], [[Khri Guile|Guile]], [[Khri Liberation|Liberation]]<br>
- Additional Effects: Boosts [[Charisma]] and [[Tactics]] skill.

==Cost==

The difficulty of activating a Khri is affected by the Urban status of the area, and current confidence level.

{{obsolete|Needs to be confirmed for the new system}}
Each Khri has a base cost of [[concentration]] that is held until the Khri drops. Special Khri have a one time concentration cost and your concentration will pulse back up once it is paid to activate the Khri.

===Multiple Khri Cost===

The cost to use multiple Khri's is not simply the sum of the Khri costs. A coefficient derived from the number of active Khris is applied to the sum of active Khri costs.

[[Image:Khri cost formula.png]]

As the number of simultaneous Khri's increase, this factor grows as follows: 2=1.3, 3=1.6, 4=1.9, 5=2.2, 6=2.5, 7=2.8

*The cost for the SKULK combo is <157.7> (157 will pull it)
*The cost for the SECURE combo is <105.6> (105 will pull it)
*The cost for the SPEED combo is <165.3> (165 will pull it)
*The cost for the SPAR combo is <171>
*The cost for the PRESCIENCE combo is <96>
*The cost for the CUNNING combo is <76.8> (76 will pull it)

~~I hope this helps those frustrated by trying to reach their needed CONC levels and if you don't know it the CONC formula is [[Image:Concentration formula.png]]

~~ On 4/23/2010 [[Khri Subsume]] was rewritten and is now obsolete. [http://www.play.net/forums/messages.asp?forum=20&category=33&topic=1&message=240]
