Re: Upcoming item count and storage limitations

I'm doing my best to cut down on unnecessary items, but if you play the game -- and especially if you engage in crafting (because it *is* fun to make things) -- then characters will just naturally accumulate crap over time, even if they don't intentionally set out to do so. I'm not technically-savvy...

Re: What's one of your favorite items you've seen or found in game?

I was visiting an NPC merchant and saw someone get this item custom-made:
a fine hooded mercurial-gray rimeveil cloak
I have greatly coveted something similar ever since. Doubly enjoyable because it reminds me of an item of a similar name from one of my favorite roguelikes, Caves of Qud.

Suggested Wiki Article: Janitor

It would probably be a good idea to create a helpfile about the janitor system and about how it has the dual purpose of reducing item bloat and of illustrating how lawless the Lost Lands is. Newer players might get confused about why their objects disappear after a while, since other MU*s handle roo...

A lighthearted protest of Margo's Bakery!

One day in voice chat, I asked Rias the most controversial question I had ever asked: "Does Shadgard sweeten their cornbread?" Well, I happened to browse Shadgard's bakery today and noticed this: You set your sights on an average small loaf of cornbread. An assistant tells you about the it...

Florida Hurricane Warning

(Note: I am not a meteorologist. Listen to local news and heed any official advisories.) If you live in Florida along the Gulf Coast and especially in the Big Bend region, be aware that Tropical Storm Idalia is forecast to become a major hurricane -- that is, at least Category 3 -- whose winds will ...

California Hurricane Warning

(Note: I am not a meteorologist. Listen to local news and heed any official advisories.) If you live in Baja California peninsula, Southern California, or Southern Nevada, be warned that Hurricane Hilary is a major hurricane -- as of this post, Category 4 with sustained winds of 130 mph (215 km/h) -...

Balastrossa questions.

What is the relationship like between the followers of Balastrossa and the Liberi?

Does worship of Balastrossa imply any sympathies toward the Liberi?

Re: Pelt Value

I agree in general with Karjus's suggestion. Other potential factors to consider when setting pelt price: • local availability of those animals • demand for pelts of that specific animal (rakkan come to mind) • cooldown on hunting/spawning • difficulty of reaching area (the rakkan again come to mind...

Re: Bald Hill Colloqium, 22 Octum 1222

I thought I'd bump this so players know about it. Could be interesting to hold another event like this.
