to drag this kicking and screaming off topic

Sad to see that people dismiss the possibility of actually roleplaying on this server. Dismiss the possibility of roleplaying? Nope, but I will admit I find I do very.very little atm. (A lot less than I thought I would) This I put mostly down to soloing wizards is hard. I find that if I'm walking u...

The whole point of slow travel is that you can just log off and pick up next time That would be true if this was a roleplay server (A land too far insists players don't run as DM's can't click on them as they go past!), but its an action server. Admitedly, it is bad luck that all 3 places I chose t...

Faster Travel needed

I had an hour and a half spare this morning, thought I'd log in, nip up Giant mountain and make myself 3-5k xp in a nice easy stroll. Log in to Avendell, check out giant mountain, no spawns all the way to 1st level caves, didn't bother checking 2nd or 3rd. Decide to go beat up Yuan-ti city. Walk the...

Fighters have to have it bad somewhere! They can do more damage in a single hit than a mage can with his spells and don't run out of steam. Saying that, it wouldn't hurt if there was a temple in the towns to do simple clerical stuff, but NO buffs.

Only one prestige class can be taken by a character.

There are more than one prestige classes available to each faction.

Each prestige class mentioned is unique to that faction and only that faction can take it. You can select from that class or from any non-unique prestige class if you want to.

Create a Lizardman race for Ancient Ones

Just a thought, but as they have Yuan-ti and Lizardmen on their side, why not create a more dragon like race for them to play as? Lots of examples from MM, and I'm sure that someone somewhere has created playable lizard races.

You can't build a mage and worry about having hits to take crits. Maybe you can't get Uber weapon masters doing 2100 dam a crit here, but you certainly can get enough to kill any mage in 1 hit. My 14th level DD with standard bought equipment has had a crit for 93 dam (av 60). Max hits for a 20th lev...

Safe spot on server portal

Since you lose all spell effects inc. sumons on a server portal it would be a good idea to put a small safe area on each side of the portal. My lvl 12 wiz fully buffed went from Old Wyrn Road to Ash Mountain (server portal) straight into 2 young dragons which spawn there. No chance to cast anything ...

Ogre pass/ Giant Mountain respawn

I think I know why the areas don't respawn. Player death then respawn onto the other server. Ogre pass / giant mountain was working perfectly yesterday, PK'ed in both sections of ogre pass, respawned back to Avendell, when I went back they didn't respawn. Killed on mountain trail later, and that map...

Also, why bother planning the char up to level 40 ahead of time? To me it just sucks the fun out of the build since you'll be asking yourself at every level, what does the recipe tell me to do ... Half the fun for me is in the planning, then seeing if what I thought works. I also find it helps to h...

ruminations so far

All comments gratefully received and slowly perculating through the grey matter. Zhorn Scribes spending points on Great Intelligence starting as a Sun Elf, with no feats spent I end up with 30 Int (+10). I thought Max bonus was +12, so add a hat and spend no feats, or does that only apply to the +12...

Pure Wizard Build

I'm thinking of trying a pure wizard build and wondering if its been done, is it insanely hard and what would be good options and why . General Wizard (!Sorceror) for additional spell feats, focussing in Necromancy and Evocation. Necromancy specialisation looked good, but I don't want to lose premon...
