Re: Non-combat OCC guilds

Sounds like a bunch of potential craft guilds not new occs to me.

Re: About Quest XP

Well I'm not a wizard, but fixing crappy old quests that give too little exp seems relatively easy to me by changing the quest to use a new quest bit (this is the flag that tracks who did what quest) and upping the reward to what the current appropriate level is. New players solve the quest and get ...

Re: 1h vs 2h & Dual Wielding

Ya I'm well aware of the unintended special attack power and the thread. But I'm a firm believer that the genie cant be put back in the bottle without breaking the will of the players, I dont see it happening. I suspect fixing 2h vs 1h and dual wield, at least removing the extra fatigue drain would ...

1h vs 2h & Dual Wielding

Since my return to almost 2 years ago now, it seems 1 handers have completely fallen out of favor. This is especially unfortunate for those guilds thematically or code restricted to use them. As more powerful 2 hand weapons have been created in the last 10 years it seems the response I've heard is j...

Re: Dulling vs undulling weapons and more.

Oh and I also agree that each weapon type should have a chance to earn a weapon of similar quality to the fabled FBB. I think coding an elite artifact would be amongst the funnest thing as a wizard and yet noone has done it... I wonder why. A two handed elite knife is of no use to anyone though and ...

Re: Dulling vs undulling weapons and more.

I do agree with Nils on much of this: I think spawn rates for artifacts are too low. The molten bladed dagger is ok, but it was upped in drop rate after much complaining by a very vocal person. But most of the other artifacts I hunt for are never present. I am really tired of perma killing mobs with...

Shout that Out!

I enjoyed hunting with Nikiel. Always thought he was one of the best knights. Brave, tough, and a skilled tactician. Many knights had 1 of those attributes, a few two, but almost none had all three… Nikiel even came back and saved my character’s life once when he was hopelessly doomed to die from df...

Re: Drow and Minas Tirith - latest status?

Those with alignment checking abilities have surely used it on evil players and noticed they are evil. I suspect it would be fairly easy to run a Gorboth style analysis of evil guilded players' alignments and verify, duh-ta-da, that players in evil guilds are evil 99.973% of the time. I don’t unders...

Re: Drow and Minas Tirith - latest status?

Its a game. Its not supposed to mimic real life is it? You seem to be indicating it should. A lone goblin near the gates would be shot with arrows before he could get near to display his colors of Caliana of which the MT guards could care less about. A fiery blazing inferno approaching the gates? Do...
