Another option could be moving some of the new help files onto the main MUD for us to look at now. It may be a little easier to organize than calling them up yourself and cut/pasting (or not), and would allow us to absorb in a familiar manner.

Hey there Shev, Just wondering if somebody was able to cut/paste those domain spells from the 2.0 testmud. It would also be nice to have help files and general in-game FAQ's available on the webpage somewhere. I'm not sure who takes care of that sort of thing but it would be nice to have a searchabl...

but i really dont think that in the long run it's a good idea to suggest to real newbies to xp there. they dont learn how to get to the other zones or even how to navigate the mud in general. This exact thing was said before about Druid Sanctuary, tower, WD elites, etc. ad naseum since the beginnin...

Will the 10 spells per domain overlap elsewhere or are they all unique to that domain? Could we have a list of those spells when you get the chance please? I'd also love the descriptions of the spells and where they can be granted (ie. Granted: 6th cleric, 5th Law/Earth/Healing, Or Granted: 9th Heal...

I had noticed this for a long time; this occurance reminded me to post it. It seems like if you perform a skill (such as the 'circle' here) and the mob dies while you would still be in skill lag, it lags you much longer than normal. The circle killed the mob, then it took 4 rounds (seen from Ssissux...

Shev, I was wondering if you can elaborate about the role of the shaman class in 2.0. I'm concerned specifically about their ability to contribute anything unique if priests and mages get the abilities stated on the d20srd website. Two of the specialties of shamans are group heal and options for pri...

Bingo. There are a few situational items that can be useful but not worth the effort.

Being the first (with Greg) to do most of the CM quests, I can assure you that only one quest in the zone was worth the reward given the time/risk/items used (and it wasn't the epic one). Overall I liked the idea of the zone having multiple purposes, but having extremely consuming quests yield mostl...

Actually, the item Zetetha loads was already changed from its original load. It used to be a hidden rare on Zetetha, and you needed four (I think) to quest. After doing 15 or so with only 1 of the items loading, we convinced the areawriter to change it to always loading but requiring more. The inten...

That belt was always the best of the loot in there imo and looks to remain a worthwhile snag. It's been a while since an item has been added to make tanks salivate. You might want to consider lowering the weight though, especially for smaller-race warriors. There are still a few ways to twink Chokin...

I do agree that the quest lives up to the News entry when it was put in as one of the most difficult quests. The problem lies more with the rewards than the difficulty itself. Yes, the quest is long, annoying, and at times incredibly difficult, but this wouldn't be as big a complaint IF the rewards ...

Klandal

Concerning the monetary value of items: Currently there is a general zone calculator guide to making item stats cost a certain number of points to put into the game. Could the number of points required to create the item be used to generate a DEFAULT of the item's monetary VALUE? That way an item th...

You're comparing one fight to the entire Tiamat zone. In comparison to the Tiamat fight alone it was fairly close death-wise. We'll also use different tactics next time since we actually know what the fight entails now... if there is a next time.

Klandal

Just for clarification, there are quite a few items required for CM quests that are acquired from zoning outside of CM. Just because people see a large portion of time spent finding/popping rares in CM, smiting hardass fights in CM, etc, it doesn't mean a substantial amount of time wasn't spent in g...

The reason the priest staff doesn't have an upgrade quest is mainly based on the fact that the priest staff didn't exist when the zone was put in. Only after completing it and talking with Mielikki a bit did I find out that the mage staff didn't have a counterpart. I made a valid argument at the tim...

I think there are already a few options for nobreak lockpicks, not including the NEVERbreak lockpick in Tiamat. I don't support even more nobreak options, especially ones where several load per boot like the Hulburg ones.

Eilistraee, thanks for the prompt response. Since this wasn't happening to my knowledge before the 2 second spell completion lag was added in the first place, I'd start my search there. This is almost as annoying as that ancestral shield bug you've been working on for me I'm sure. ;)

That's already the way it is. Given a specific class there is a better race to maximize class stat strengths and minimize negligible ones.
