Re: A couple ideas

Actually, simplest solution would be to drop platinum prices. They are currently on par or in excess of the MMORPG's that have exponentially more content, dedicated customer service that doesn't disappear for a year + from time to time, and that produce significant new content every 6 to 9 months.

Re: Drakkar is going to die... Suggestions to bring Drak Bac

The biggest and most likely permanent roadblock to getting new people is the borderline rabid hatred from players and devs over the idea of lower levels getting anything they don't 'deserve' whatever that means. When you start off a post with such over the top nonsense, you forfeit any credibility ...

Re: Longbeard's Merlin's posts... I think pricing is a piece of the issue, but the other issue is simply marketing. How do you get eyeballs on the game in the first place? Once a new player tries out the game, how do you keep them? So you have to address both...IF you want the game to thrive. That's...

Re: Fixes, changes, etc.

not playing at the moment, but I will again, I'm sure!

Change the hot bar so it can be detached and moved. Leads to wrist aches trying to click on the bar and then on the crit boxes. Also defeats the purpose of insta-casts if you can't insta-cast them ;>

Re: Thief Hide suspected issue

We believe we found the issue. The problem is not actually with hide. The problem is with AID. When AID is cast on a hidden character, in certain circumstances is is essentially as if they are not hidden. We are working on a solution to this issue and will post again here when we believe it has bee...

Re: psi damage reduction nerf?

I'm reminded of this topic by the thread discussing the thought there may be an unintentional downgrade of "hide". This change also happened post event, and wasn't intentional, but tangible, since damage #'s are now visible. Similarly, nothing found that caused it. Brad, you'd mentioned re...

Oh, yes..I noticed and have alerted Omni and Brad. I know Omni has looked at it, and I know Brad said he hadn't intentionally made any changes, but the changes are there nonetheless. I don't have good insight into whether it's a change in totems, quirks, or party points, but I know it isn't titan ri...

Re: f/m issues

Hasted time is definitely slower than non-hasted time in the sped up alts. No clue why, but, for instance, when mashing the repeat button, it is noticeably slower hasted. Try it and see! I too, turn off psionic diversion in the fast scenarios, and don't cast haste on anyone, because it's slower. As ...

Re: Mentalist damage is unbalanced... in a bad way.

Since I was the squeaky wheel here let me comment. Fact 1: There are no groups like there used to be. Agreed. Don't need 'em. You can still level faster in Cobrahn than other classes. Yes, mentalists can burn and possibly clear areas as quickly as others their level. However, a mentalist cannot sur...

Re: Mentalist damage is unbalanced... in a bad way.

Well, this discussion isn't really about NL dmg, but I'd love a run down of how they are the highest dmg in a PM or something, Tirith. Aside from that, you guys are basing claims off of 10 year old anecdotal evidence in a time when Cob WAS the game. Now days, a barbarian/paladin/MA will out level a...

Re: Mentalist damage is unbalanced... in a bad way.

Agree completely with Tirith. Cob is a great place to be a mentalist....they have an easier time hitting 50 than most other classes.

Did it.

Re: Party experience broken?

Hiya Darm!

Welcome back! :)

Leadership points are dependent upon the area you hunt in and the party composition (level-wise).

Reach out to Shogun or Oddsbodkin in the DZ lobby. He's got some details on that.

Nork 5/5's drop in Multi-lair? That's news to me, after all this time!

Iirc, N7 is better than N6 for exp. Tougher too, of course. Evil nork can be fun too...decent exp/skill.

From time to time you hear the muffled shuffling of feet...

This is the text you get on a hex in the last chance saloon near the stairs to n1.

Brad, was that an intentional reference to text based MUD's? One of the common respawn messages in those is "you hear the shuffling of feet" or something similar.
