Re: Thematic equipment

Interesting. I can see the logic of having such customization done in the guild itself, but in terms of making craft guilds more relevant -- what if only a smith could do it for you?

Re: Newbie Command Name Change?

This is a non-problem. Loads of things deserve our time and energy. The immaturity of someone who wants to turn <nignore> into a racial slur isn't one of them. Such people will find ways to be assholes whether we change this particular command or not.

Re: Druids of the Donut

To clarify, I'm not suggesting a single layman guild like this should have all those specials. Like I said, I gave no thought to power/balance. I was just brainstorming.

Druids of the Donut

Following Cherek's invitation to brainstorm layman, racial, and craft guilds, here's an idea for a new layman option: the Druids of the Donut (joking with the title, obviously). I know this idea has been floated before, but I really think the game could use a more purely druidic option than the EW, ...

Re: Changes to Equipment

Honestly, I just don't know why when changes are made, they're made to such extremes in this game though. "Gear should last longer." "GEAR LASTS FOREVER!" "Gear is too easy to get." "Gear never drops!" One thousand times yes. P.S. And Cherek, sure. Let's drop...

Re: Changes to Equipment

Cherek, Here is what I wrote on 29 December: "Does anyone else think we've gone a bit too far with the sturdy black armours?" (emphasis added). Earlier today, Snedecor wrote this: "There's a fine line between making something an awesome find and just torturing people with hopelessness...

Re: Changes to Equipment

Considering the quality level of the sturdy greaves and bracers, they SHOULD be rare. They never should have been as common as they were. I get that it sucks from a personal perspective, but I that think if you look at the bigger picture, you'll also agree that they were too easy to get before? You...

Re: Alignment

Different mobs sway your alignment in a different pace, so one can only assume they are placed in the same spectrum of alignment as we are, for example an evil mob can be untrustworthy. Bump those untrustworthies to sinister is all I'm saying, which allows us to farm the alignment back up easier as...

Re: Changes to Equipment

What positive difference will it make if there is a set amount of X item, that will appear at any random time... Compared to each spawn having a decreasing possibility to have said item, with increased numbers of them? The first version will always result in fewer items available. Are you saying th...
