Re: What little additions or updates do you want?

An EXP floor for mob kills. As your skill goes higher, combat becomes less and less viable as a source of EXP. This discourages me (high level fighter) from hanging out with lower-level fighters, since my bucket inevitably runs empty. For sustainability's sake, I think all mob kills should give at m...

Re: Additional uses for climb

I like in-a-tree rooms. The most obvious addition would be to add some kind of combat maneuver that scales in part off climbing, like a lasso move. Might not fit, though. Here's another one I like: in urban/forested areas and maybe with an appropriate ability, climbing could supplement stealth. This...

Re: Scripting thread (Mudlet chatbox inside)

How to do sound: You can futz with the Mudlet UI to beep you if you have the sound file, but I imagine many of us don't just keep random sound clips lying around. This was one of my greatest annoyances, since I didn't want to sift through a billion sounds ripped from some sketchy site. Fortunately, ...

Scripting thread (Mudlet chatbox inside)

To make an easy chatbox, open mudlet's scripts section and click add item. Name and then paste this into the newborn script file: createMiniConsole("chat", 800,0,550,200) setBackgroundColor("chat",0,0,0,255) setMiniConsoleFontSize("chat", 8) setWindowWrap("chat&quo...

Re: Skill Caps & Redundant Skills

I don't know about that. It kind of bothers me that nightblades are the only class listed as having 700 ranged, beating out all the warriors as well as rangers (It's in the name!) when their niche is arguably more 'stealthy assassin' than something like 'ranged long-distance shooting champion.' Even...

Re: What little additions or updates do you want?

Some accessibility options would be nice to have: * A replay command that replays the last 10 or so messages/emotes your character saw IC, with arguments for chat or pendants or whatever as well. * An option that prepends a message to all IC messages like [EMOTE], kind of like how we have [ESP-Gray]...

Re: What little additions or updates do you want?

For the help files: There's no mention of how to interact with duplicates in help inventory. This is easy to figure out for people who have mudded before, but worth mentioning nonetheless. It could use something like this: A character's inventory refers to items they are holding or wearing. The inve...

Combat: Thoughts and rough guide

A few days have gone since my initial newbie outlook, and my understanding of combat has changed significantly, mostly in part due to hitting the threshold where aim can actually hit the chest. This will be written in the form of a guide, where best / extremely best (overpowered) options are looked ...

The tumble fumble

Tumble's priority should be after a failed defense roll, like cloak parry (but preferably after cloak parry, since cloak parry is better!). Taking tumble shuts down tactical dodge, which shuts down cloak parry / main gauche, as well as block rolls. It triggers often and has priority over these thing...

Re: Arcanists!

Summary of the chat (Late because I'm so slow!): Arcanists don't have a lot going for them, despite being a very cool class conceptually. The suggested ways to remedy this can be (broadly) narrowed down to 'more glyphs' and 'more systems.' Both of these serve to better define and expand the reach of...
