despite being 'for everyone' quest gods acting to further the story will ignore anyone who is not the specific person they WANT to be a part of the campaign. I tried *ONE* time to do this RP crap, and was shot down and ridiculed for not being part of the crowd. I've participated in the ring campaig...

Damn, where's the love??

Looks like a pfile problem. Delete and start at level 1? I'll help plevel you to 18! (the level of my psi)

(Love ya LL) :oops:

Birile

That's a good point. Would it be possible for an Imm to test this out with a lowbie psi rather than a level 50? I get the sense from the Imm who responded first that this psp loss probably isn't intended. I'm beggin' y'all to help me out!

Birile

Alomlim, The problem here is NO other class on the mud has their abilities permanently affected by death. Yes, it's possible to lose a notch in a skill that was maxed out but you can gain that back easily by practice. Psi's losing psp's, like the originator of this post said, is like any caster losi...

Birile

Allow me to elaborate: My lowbie psi alt lost level 18 last night. It had 306psp prior to the death that brought it down to 17 again. After a res from a very nice cleric its total psp was 305. Today, while trying to level the same alt I again lost level 18 (so psi's aren't the best of tanks). Upon r...

Ah well :)

Birile

Thanks for the heads up Ashiwi. :)

Still interested in getting an answer about the descrips especially, since Birile's is extremely boring in my opinion and I'd like to spruce it up but can't really put some of the stuff in that I want, according to the descrip guidelines.

Birile

:) Sorry for any confusion. It's been about a month or so since I've seen the Illusix (maybe it was Illus-some other suffix, but Illus was definitely the first part) so maybe an Imm had it changed. I guess what I'm trying to say is that when I read the help file on what we can and cannot use in a de...

A thought that I've had for a long time and kind of got reminded about from a post about height and weight in the Ideas section: if you read the help files on the restrictions to description and the restrictions to certain race names and then you look at some character descriptions and certain chara...

Birile

Hey Birile, got any IDEAS or just gonna poke holes and be cynical about mine? :roll: I've expressed several of my own ideas here! I like poking holes, too. That doesn't make me cynical, just pointing out some possible problems. Not saying I think your idea is bad, just not perfect. I fully expect m...

Birile

Thanks Sylvos! As it stands, bards have 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 10th spell circles. I wouldn't be opposed to increasing the number of circles we had but I'm okay as is. I'd just like to cast a phantom armor without having to worry if it means I can cast enough invis spells in the next 24 minutes! Thu...

Birile

Okay, so I don't know how many spells per circle a ranger, dire, paly/anti etc. can cast but as a bard I know I'm entirely frustrated by the amount of spells I can cast in my higher-level circles. This comes from the fact that the current bard/bchanter system is similar to the called-proc item syste...

A good start to a prestige point allocation revamp, Ashiwi, but still not flawless (I know you know this :) ). Basing it on "mastery" of a skill seems a little unfair for those classes with skills (cough: bard) who have a heck of a lot of skills they can't "master." Unless you mean that when I get m...

Birile

Great idea. :) Is it? If it would identify true newbies, who could use some help and encouragement, sure. If you don't police it, and thus limit it to true newbies, what's it good for? It's good for sitting 1w and making pretend you're a n00b so goodhearted people will give you eq for your seventh ...

Birile

Alrighty, I'll look!

Birile

Is there any way the staff can give us mortals some sort of list of what updates they are currently working on? I know there are a lot of things "in the works" but I take that to mean more "we'll get to them when we finish other things" rather than "so-and-so is currently actively updating such-and-...

I generally like snow. Which is good 'cause I grew up in the Catskills and still live in upstate New York. But 24 inches on Christmas Day (woot, White Christmas) and another 24 inches on top of that the following week on New Years' Day kinda sucks. Add to that the fact that the snow is STILL on the ...

Birile

My advice is set up an interview with a reporter for the/a newspaper. It serves their agenda (new twists to the story) and yours (letting the public know all sides of the story). Editorials are generally only read by those of us who like to rant and, well, write editorials (myself included :D ).

Birile

No no, he's talking about bards!

But really, were mercs that shytty?

Birile

Forgive me, but wouldn't silence room effectively keep all mages, clerics and singers from performing during the fight? Unless you give them all some kind of breath attack proc upon silence... this seems rather boring for those types. I wasn't around when silence room was in effect (or I was too sma...

Birile

Yeah, and while we're at it let's consolidate the invoker & enchanter into one class and the elementalist & druid into another. There's way too much diversity in Sojourn and these four classes are WAY underpowered at the moment, just like the lich is. :D On the point of relocate/portal/fly, I'm kind...

Birile

I really don't see how people feel that grouping with others you don't know and are new to the game won't help you out more? :shock: Woopity-Doo, your exp is cut 20% by the addition of a newbie to the group. Think of the friend you could be making and loyal follower and aid in times of need your ga...

You do realize that for you to be buff enough to not need buffer spells would mean that buffer spells would have to then be nerfed to uselessness? Not that I really have a problem with the majority of buffer spells disappearing from the game. I think all that Nuk's saying is it'd be nice if a level...

Birile

Agreed. I know there was just a major change to melee/spells but I think it's Iyachtu who's working on the bards. I think he is working on updating something else as well but but I'm extremely anxious to test out some new songs and comparing/contrasting instruments' affects.

Birile

Nuk's just upset 'cause "his" kids are short and have hairy feet.

Birile

Bah, last fix took away my song of sleeping just after I had learned it. Thanks for bringin' back the memory Gurnsy. *sniff*

And here I thought this was a story about Shev questing the Staff of the Mud.

I don't think the eq pit would ever be completely empty unless we're speaking at the beginning of a boot unless there would be some way to keep the memory of what's in the pit from boot to boot. As I've said and others have said, this is something that other muds do. From the times that I've scaveng...

Birile

Wow, the equipment pit is an EXCELLENT idea. I've seen this on other muds--er, not that I frequent other muds...--and it's been a serious boon. As for players taking advantage of this and hording eq, who freakin' cares? If someone wants to steal a ring out of the pit that gives 5hp big deal. It just...

If you type "assoc" it'll do just that :)

Yeah, and make Cifle an extremely rare rareload in GC, that mob pops first thing on every boot. :wink:

I think having alts is actually a good idea and everyone should try it. Most of us (read: all of us who aren't absolute saints and think the best about everybody) have cursed out someone at some time during a group or what-not because we think they should've done something that they didn't. A warrio...

Birile

The reason you sometimes get Fair for your Charisma stat is because it was lowered since there are SO many minimum stats when rolling a Bard. That's also why it's relatively impossible to roll an uber bard (though I've heard there are those who have done this or at least close to it in the new syste...

Birile

Actually, I DO have a trig to do just that--stop the song when I pick up the verse. I just hate that feeling of seeing t'other bard pick up my song in those gut-wrenching moments. I do know several bards also have the same trig but I'm more the paranoid type who thinks the worst in those situations!...

Birile

Bah... don't get me started on how low a bard's rogue skills can max out at! Ah well... As for accompany, the whole picking up the verse after your comrade stops singing thing? It SUCKS, ie. much more dangerous than helpful! Let me elaborate: say Gurns and I are in a group together and I'm singin' s...

Okay, so I've petitioned the Imms about this a couple of times and mmailed Iyachtu on this as well and have met with a bunch of crickets chirping so I figured I'd bring this question to the forums since I'm a little clueless when it comes to the dual wield capabilities of other classes. I have alway...

I actually really like the idea of the song of world knowledge. Mainly because I think that there are still a lot of us who play bards for RP purposes. I kind of like the idea of the knowledge we gain being used in some sort of useful manner as well. No clue how difficult this would be to implement,...
