Unless the bugs have been fixed, no.
Dreamform is horribly and awfully messed up if the bugs haven't been corrected. I'd tell you what they were, but I don't know if they still exist!

I've always been under the impression that it is intentional that you can go to -any- plane from a Nexus of Power from the plane you're connected with.
IE, a Celestine can go to prime, astral elemental from the Celestia Pool of Stars, an Aquamancer can go to Astral, Prime and Cosmic from the water Pool of Stars. The elegate/cosmicgate bypasses the need for astralgate etc in Planar - but only through your nexus, and only from 'your plane'.
This should not be confused with Celestgate, wherein it was discovered that Ilyarin is actually Elohora in disguise.

I can say for a fact you can't hear a thing in Dreamform. It registers as if you're asleep, and I know you can't CT, SAY, or anything of the like. I'm not certain whether they can see your name on DREAMSPEAK, but if they can, you can always try to weave Hallucination motes at them.

When receiving a dreamspeak, the target sees something like "A soft voice echoes in the back of your mind, "blah blah blah"" I can hop on my dreamweaver later tonight if someone wants to test/play around with it.

I'll BUG it, just in case, but it seems it's only the plane above, and the plane below, except for Prime/Elemental or Prime/Cosmic.

It wasn't always like that, but as I said, there have been a series of un-touched bugs with the skillset for months that the administration has firmly declared do not exist. When they do. Quite obviously.

An Aquamancer tested for me and he can't go straight to Astral from Water.

That's usual though. Except for Prime to Elemental (Mages) and Prime to Cosmic (Guardians), you've always had to go by adjacent planes. Cosmic however -is- the adjacent plane to Astral, so it seems like Gate in the Cosmic skill should be able to get you to Astral, since it says it will allow you to open gates to AND from the Cosmic plane, meaning gates from Elemental -> Cosmic, Astral -> Cosmic, and Cosmic to both should work with that ability.

Nurrh.
1. Dreamspeak message is anonymous.
2. Using SAY in dreambody will only be heard by other dreambodies in the room.
3. You probably can't hear anyone still while in dreamform, though that may simply be due to Blue actually doing something for a change (it can't change its mind).
4. When you start dreamspeaking to somebody with half a clue and who has invested more than $400 into this game, they'll immediately use the skill to find out who you are. If they have not invested the prerequisite $400 (in money or time) they'll usually roll their eyes and walk off.
5. Linking to somebody who has a shield up will cause your attack to bounce off their shield, but I can't remember if they actually see that or not.
6. It's pointless to try and do any espionage when you're an enemy of an organization, because you can't even follow them through teleport or out of a manse if they're going into enemy territory.
7. Yay Dreamweaving let's give it to knights

You lot are forgetting the planar structure. With a nexus, depending on the org, you're connected from Prime->Ethereal->Elemental->Cosmic->Astral. Morellyn using a nexus to go from Cosmic to Astral and back and forth is normal, but no, you can't jump from an Elemental nexus (like Water) straight to Astral. The ability just allows the nexus jump from one plane to a connected plane.

If I were wanting to design a weapon shaped generally like a pick (ball with a long, pointed, curved section protruding perpendicular to the haft), what would it need to be?

Is Gate in Cosmic supposed to allow one to transverse to Astral from the Cosmic planes? I've been doing it for years, and recently had someone tell me that I'm bugged because of it. I do not have the astrogate ability in Planar.
You're not bugged. Mages, however, cannot get to Astral with Gate in Elementalism. They can push themselves up to Cosmic, though.

Does that mean that Wiccans could (theoretically) hop up to Elemental from Faethorn without ElemGate?

Knowledge domoth, Knowledge karma, Dolphin astrosphere, Titan/Demigod stat boost, a lucky Chaos domoth...besides that, I don't think there's much else.

Lich at nighttime gives +2 buff, at daytime gives -1, to both strength and int. Archlich always gets the +2.
