Re: Feature/Bug?

Unintended, but I don't think we can do anything about it even if we want to. I'd say if you manage to do it, you've earned it.

Re: Question about Warranting

Yes, yes, yes. For legitimate, in-character reasons - not because Bobby's alt killed your alt. The underlying theme here is to remove red tape and Imm-enforced rules and let clans control themselves as they see fit. The caveat is that if the situation devolves so far that Immortal intervention is re...

Hopefully when we are finished we be happy with the current supply and balance of weapons in the game. Our intent is to avoid any vanilla or cookie-cutter molds and arrive at a place where y...

Re: Exp multiplier thought?

Sorry, this is extremely unlikely currently.

A Black Flame

To all beasts of the Shadow,

The Great Lord has seen fit to reward your efforts with a return of the old means of transportation between cities. Any servant of the Great Lord may enter the flames to travel from the ruined city to the western stronghold and vice versa. Use this gift wisely!

Re: The Newbie Experience

Please stop this nonsense and re-read the original post - if you don't have anything to add, please don't de-rail and please stop being counterproductive. A 19 11 14 19 17 warrior ...

Re: The Newbie Experience

That's all covered in the newbie quest arc, Decrepit, combined with progressively earning basic kits/weaps as they move forward, based on which setup they chose after the tutorial. Then this eq is upgraded as they continue. Thanks for all the feedback so far, folks. I'll be re-reading this as I begi...

Re: The Newbie Experience

There is a series of mobs that teach basics, award eq, and generally guide players from lvl 1 to lvl 15? 20? via quests and in-character activities. Been a while since they were imped, but I plan on re-visiting them during this because I don't remember what all I included on them. For those familiar...

Not off the top of my head. Can likely just give them multiple lanterns in newbie kit and/or some mechanism to get new lanterns.
