I've read the books several times but when I think of the lore and rangers the same things always springs to mind. The scene in the film where the hobbits first encounter them right in the middle of them ambushing the group of Haradrim. And later on all the same dudes switch to being knights to try...

I don't think there are any shortages of ideas for recoding the rangers of Gondor, more the lack of someone to do it. It's a big job recoding an old guild! I am pretty sure both Gorboth and Varian have had design plans for the guild, but just not the developers to work on it. I think another issue ...

I remember "way back when.. " the theory was that the "You feel calm again."-messages that frequented battle spam was a chance for a bonus attack. We later learned this wasn't the case, but it makes sense to implement just that. The jist of it would be: The higher the dis the mo...

Yes - that means you've reached the cap. G. Is this the games quest exp cap or is it related to the players file in relation to a previous post about someone completing all quests but not having the cap message? Basically your average everyday player wont see the retirement level without extensive ...

After seeing the post about Jadestone I thought I'd add this because there are quite a few more. That have all become annoying. Tarshir - Solace - Tarshirs Glasses: I rarely even see this item anymore, even after arma. And not because it requires a generally high awareness but because players run to...

Id rather just see non-magical items under a certain amount of armour or hit/pen just save globally rather then just the Tutorial Zone. However, what was added works just fine for them now. When I went to help someone yesterday the racks actually had weapons in them so it's doing its job.

Making items unsellable only removes half the problem. The other side of the coin is bigger people taking good items and keeping for themselves in hidden caches. Theyre talking about the tutorial island, everyones a Novice/Beginner. Unless newbies are stashing black longswords somewhere in a 100 ro...

Do you really think information should be shared like this? It gives me the feel of a standard MMO walkthrough of where to go and what to do. Doesn't seem very Genesis-like. Has exploration left the building with all the new people that arrived? What exploration? The one where you navigate your sky...

Further in that equation is if the racial modifiers are going to affect this? I wouldn't think a dwarf should get any bonus from this, just because they get more dis as a race. If the dwarf doesn't focus on it with xp, which is the real kicker, no bonus. So a goblin should be just as likely to gain...

Problem is, if its not worth it no one is going to focus on it. Which i think is the ultimate goal, to create new stat builds. If were looking at it from a purely supplemental perspective then it really doesnt matter what it is. If youre wanting to change it so that people take it as a primary focus...
