you would WACI please?

Already wizzed, aint got the patience for code, so I unwizzed

Also, there is a wizard that has already spent some time but not had it implemented, this post is mainly to see if he can get some support for it

I remember when I was fresh this was the place to be... then long about the early 2000s, the dynamic was changed on how mobs were giving xp (complete statavg instead of just combats). It was during this time that common killing grounds like Kabal, Trollshaws and Goblin caves became ghost towns. Mobs were too hard for low champs for the lack of reward in exp. Wouldn't it be a good start to update the mob files to increase their non combat stats to make them more of a reward to bother killing?

Can worry about "new" stuff after.

Aye, aslong as something is done, trollshaws used to be really nice xp, now... not so much, and Kabal is a great place, goblincaves would be a welcome addition to decent xp grounds for rangers atleast I can imagine, probably knights too

Hi all,

Posting on behalf of the wizard Zignur the Shy.

Over the last few months there has been considerable reviewing and recoding of Kabal city, its surroundings, and its citizens as part of a broader body of work to update and refresh the domain of Kalad.

This includes:
* the review of all npcs and creatures in the city and rebalancing of approximately 50 types to better reward the challenge they provide.

* the updating of the Red Fang goblin racial guild, converting one of the oldest mount codes in the game to the standardised steed code, and providing new 'quality of life' features allowing guild member wolves to be summoned and dismissed (among other things).

* updating the smith of the city to also mend armours along with fixing weapons.

* a massive clean-out of all bug and typo reports (thanks Malus).

As part of this work a previously overgrown path outside the gates of the city has been cleaned up, allowing players access to an area of farmlands and a Red Fang training camp west of the city... a great location for the young warrior or apprentice wizard to cut their teeth after leaving Tutori Isle.

The revitalisation of the city has also attracted a boatload of drunken young minotaurs who recently docked in port, much to the disgust of the city's Thanar cultists.


You can expect further updates to the domain in the coming months, with a review of boss fights, magic items, and a fresh look at the drow of the Dark Dominion among other things.

Cheers,
Arman

Pity it was not done few years ago, we would have our mythical Captain myth a few years earlier.....
